Liquor License
Policy Planned by
Medford Council
Action - to - establish a---city
council policy on liquor
license applications will be
undertaken soon, according to
Mayor John Snider.
He said today he has re
quested City Manager Robert
Duff to invite the administra
tor of the Oregon liquor con
trol commission to meet with
the council's executive com
mittee to discuss policy ques
tions, and also to obtain in
formation about the paractices
of other cities from the Bur
eau of Municipal Research at
the University of Oregon.
The question of policy arose
at a council meeting last night
after several council mem
bers had asked if a policy on
limiting the number of lic
enses had been established by
the city. The firm in question
was The Spot, 17 South River
side ave.,-which had asked for
a class A beverage license.
The firm now holds a class B
license.
Speaks for Association
Dr. D. Kirkland West, First
Presbyterian church minister,
spoke for the Medford Minist
erial association against the
granting of the change in
license. He pointed out the
number on a population basis
by the Oregon liquor control
commission. Several other
ministers also spoke against
the license change request.
The council, although
agreeing with the association,
felt a city oolicy on granting
licenses should be established
before denying any requests.
The council then approved
the request on the grounds
this would be the last such
change granted until a policy
can be worked out.
The council also approved
the transfer of a package store
class B license to Raymond
Day and Elizabeth Nancy
Brobeck from Ethel C. and
William M. Bieg for the B
and H Market. The retail
beverage license class B was
transfered from Tony Mete
to DeLore Sullivan for the
North Riverside .Tavern.

Treasurer Willing
To Pare Taxes To
Bolster Economy
Such Actions Said
Not Now Warranted
Washington HP) Sp"
tary of Treasury Robt
Anderson said today he w
be willing to stimulate the
tional economy with an
come tax cut. But he said t.
situation "does not warrar.
such actions now."
Anderson made the state
ment, latest in a series of
similar pronouncements by
top administration officials,
before the joint Congression
al Economic Committee.
He pledged that "neither in
flation nor deflation will be
allowed to run a ruinous
course." -
He indicated the adminis
tration will conduct a "month
to month" survey of economic
problems to determine wheth
er income tax cuts or other
economic stimulants are need
ed. Typical Fluctuations
Describing "fluctuations" in
the economy as "typical of a
dynamic, competitive system,"
Anderson said administration
policies are based on the as
sumption that present "re
strictive" factors will not con
tinue too long.
He said "a number of fa
vorable factors" like re
duced, inventories, generally
stable prices, an upturn in
homebuilding, and easier
mortgage money already
are discernable in the near
future.
Anderson said that from a
long range view, the economy
has the expanding needs of a
growing population and a ca
pacity and skill for filling
them.
Senator Demands Action
Anderson said taxes must
be considered first from the
viewpoint of revenue pro
duced and cuts should -be
made as an "economic stimu
lation only when economic
conditions are sufficiently ad
verse to warrant it."
"'."President' Eisenhower" said
Wednesday that a tax cut
could be an administration
reserve weapon against any
continued downturn in the
economy. But he added that
he expects an upswing about
midyear.
Sen. Albert Gore said, mean
time, that it is "high time"
the government took note of
danger signals in the economy
and took action to head off a
serious depression.
Rundown of Economy
The Tennessee Democrat
gave this rundown of the
economy:
Four or five million per
sons are jobless.
"Many more millions"
are working only a few days
a week.
Steel production is down
to 60 per cent.
Farm prices are at a "crit
ical" level.
The bankruptcy rate is
the highest v in history and
businesses are failing at a
greater rate than in 1933.

Water Bonds, Main
The Medford city council
last night called for bids on
$21,532.36 worth of water
bonds.
Bids will be received March

finance outstanding warrants
accumulated since 1955 which
have been issued for construc
tion of water mains.
The council also called for
bids on construction of a
water main on Siskiyou blvd.
The project was approved by
the council after it had re
ceived a petition, representing
88 per cent of the assessable
front footage from residents
requesting construction.
-The eight-inch main will be
an extension of a present
main on Siskiyou blvd., east
about 1,020 feet from Modoc

Budget Request
For Executive
Office Whacked
Washington HP) The
House Appropriations Com
mittee, taking its first action
on President Eisenhower's
new budget, today ' pared
$206,000, or 1.6 per cent,
from funds requested' to run
his executive office.
The action indicated slack
ening in the congressional
economy drive. A year ago
ago the committee slashed
the proposed White House
budget by $4,515,000, or 26
per cent.
The committee recommend
ed today that Congress pro
vide $12,668,870 to run the
executive offices during the
fiscal year starting next July
1. That is $147,000 more than
Congress provided last year
for ,the current fiscal year.
In approving the increased
funds, the committee criti
cized the way the White House
is run.
"The chief executive is sur
rounded," it said, by too many
"boards, commissions, and
standing or permanent advis
ory committees . . . This con
fusing multiplicity cannot
avoid duplication and the un
necessary expenditure of time,
manpower and money."
The committee's action was
taken on a $14,808,870 appro
priations bill which carried
all but $256,000 of the money
requested by the President to
run the White House and sev
eral minor agencies.
In a separate action, the
committee approved an emer
gency money bill carrying all
of the $43,400,000 urgently
requested by the administra
tion to replenish nearly ex
hausted funds for paying un
employment compensation to
veterans and former federal
employees. Claims for jobless
pay have soaredtas business
slumped. .

Closed Circuit TV
Bill Amended
The Medford city council
last night passed ait amend
ment to the closed circuit tele
vision ordinance which would
not require forfeiture of a
$5,000 bond if construction
of the system did not take
place within two years of en
actment of the ordinance.
The bond was required
within 10 days after adop
tion of the original ordinance
on the condition that if California-Oregon
Theaters Inc.
failed to comply with one or
more of the ordinance provis
ions in the franchise, any dam
age or loss suffered by the city
would be recoverable.
The city manager recom
mended approval of the
amendment since he did not
feel any damage would result
to the city if construction fail
ed to start within the two-
year deadline.
The company also had
asked for removal of a pro
vision which gives the city the
right to fix rates and charges
for subscribers. The council
felt this authority should be
retained until other govern
mental agencies impose rate
schedules.

After Injunction
Service Halted
Since Monday
Portland (IP) Greyhound
buses , began rolling from
Portland to western Oregon
points again today after some
200 drivers who had reported
"sick" agreed to return to
work.
Service had been halted
since Monday from Portland
to the coast and to Redding
and Eureka, Calif. '
Injunction Granted
The first idled bus to leave
here departed. at 9:30 a.m. via
the Sunset highway to As
t o r i a. Greyhound officials
A Greyhound bus started
southbound from Medford
about 11 a.m. and a north
bound bus was started from
her about 12:15 a.m. to
day, according to officials.
They said the buses were
extra equipment which was
stalled here when the strike
started. Up to noon they re
ported several calls for tick
ets but no rush. They ex
pected heavy ticket sales
when normal schedules re
sume about 6 p.m. this eve

Redding about 3:15 p.m.
and the first southbound

Federal Judge William East
late Thurday granted a tem
porary injunction, effective at
9 a.m. today, to Greyhound
lines which ordered the Motor
Coach Employees Union to
call the drivers back to work.
The drivers decided to return
to their jobs after a telephone
conference.
Drivers had reported dis
satisfaction with company
policy in firing drivers.
Walkout Unauthorized
The union said the walkout
was not authorized by it.
Judge East held the union
responsible for ordering the
men back to work but em
phasized that "no court can
order a man to work against
his independent will."
The judge said it was clear
federal courts could not order
injunctions in cases where a
labor dispute" exists. He said
he believed no dispute exist
ed, as defined by law, and
that therefore the court had
the power to impose injunc
tive relief. He said the court
made "no findings of fact"
but had ruled on the law seek
ing to establish the status quo
that existed prior to the walk

Decision by March 17 r.
Stassen said he would have
to make a decision whether
or not to leave the federal
government and make his bid
in Pennsylvania by March 17.
"We had a good talk and
we're going to talk again,'
Stassen said as he left the
White House.

whether he had resigned or
planned to resign as recent
reports here have said.
"I have not submitted a
resignation and the President
has not asked me to," Stassen
said.
Rumors of Ouster
He , described as "errone
ous" speculation that he had
resigned.
Reports that Stassen is on
his way out of the Eisenhower
