President Discusses Spending budget
Leaves on First Leg of Western Trip
Washington -HT&- President
Eisenhower went over a big
part of his fiscal 1960 spend
ing budget today and then left
by air on a business and pleas
ure trip that will take him to
the West Coast.
. He took off at 9:03 a.m.
(p.s.t.), for Toledo, Ohio,
where he will be overnight
guest of former Treasury Sec
retary George M. Humphrey
t an exclusive duck-hunting
club on Lake Erie.
Neighbor Goei Along
Accompanying the presi
dent were George E. Allen,
his (longtime friend and Get
tysburg neighbor, and William
Alton Jones, board chairman
of Cities Service Co.
Earlier, the President who
promised after this week's
election to whack federal
pending whet-e possible, spent
an hour with budget and vet
erans officials.
The chief executive called
In Budget Director Maurice
Stans and Veterans Adminis
trator Sumner Whittier to
deal with veterans benefits in
the federal budget he will
send to the new Congress in
January. Also sitting in was
Robert E. Merriman, deputy
assistant to the president for
Inter-department affairs.
The White House described
the meeting as the first of a
series of such sessions on the
budget. There was a no com
ment on its results.
Veterans benefits are one of
the big spending items, in the
federal budget slightly more
than $5 billion this year. They
also are one of the "sacred
cows" of the budget an item
that politicians of both parties
tremble to pare.
Required By Law
Most of the present outlay
is required by various laws
stipulating benefits to be paid
to veterans and their depend
ents under various conditions.
The only way the President
could seek a major cut in the
total would be to recommend
changes in the laws.
Some congressional observ
ers believe that there is more
likelihood of Congress in
creasing veterans benefits
next year than decreasing
them. Major veterans organ
izations plan to stage an all
out campaign for pensions for
veterans of the First World
War.

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF
A LADY FRIEND of Author Vincent Starrett was attending
a play one evening when a man seated in the same aisle
brushed by her at intermission time. Unfortunately, he stamped
hard on her foot, and the
thought
"I hope
woman, m pain,
angrily to herself,
he breaks his neck!"
Coming back to his seat
later, the man encountered
more trouble with the lady
in the end seat, and kept his
balance with difficulty. As
he passed Starrett's friend,
he grinned and whispered,
"You almost got your wish,
didn't you?"
The man was Dunninger,
the famous mind reader.

Duff told Medford's city coun
cil last night that the Public
Utilities commission has con
ducted a new traffic survey
on the Clark st. railroad cros
ing. He said "a few days"
would be required for the
PUC to evaluate the results.
The city planning commis
sion has recommended the
crossing remain open.
Another matter, . that of
granting a one-year variance
for erection of an illuminated
sign advertising the Mont
Crest subdivision on Murphy
rd., was referred to a joint
meeting with the planning
commission.
Objects io Variance
Donald Hansen, Ward II
councilman, objected to the
variance. He based his objec
tion on section 16 (b) of the
city's zoning ordinance,
which states, he said, that
such variances can be granted
only if their denial would re
sult in practical confiscation
of the property.
Hansen's motion, unani
mously approved, that the
issue go before a joint meet
ing is in line with a policy
establshed by Mayor Snider
last summer. Under this
policy, when the council dis
agrees ' with a recommenda
tion from the planners a joint
meeting is in order rather
than a council vote In con

division in Berrydale was re-
Troops 'Destroy'
Camp Roberts
San Simeon, Calif .-(UPD-As-sault
troops of the Army's 4th
Division advanced through
the "rubble" of Camp Rob
erts, theoretically destroyed
in a simulated atomic attack
on "aggressor" forces.
Thirteen thousand troops
from Fort Lewis, Wash., land
ed from 40 ships by boat and
helicopter in the Hunter Lig
gett Military reservation area
Wednesday.
The mock attack. Exercise
Rocky Shoals, is the largest
Army-Navy amphibious oper
ation since 1950.
The exercise is scheduled
to continue - until Monday,
when the troops will re-embark.
A deer was the first major
casualty of the operation. The
two-point buck became ex
cited during the troop landt
ing Wednesday night and
leaped into the surf.
Navy frogmen fished the
animal out and took it ashore,
but it dropped dead of excite
ment on the beach.
Quake Rocks
Northern Japan
Sapporo, Japan - (UPD - A
"very strong" ocean -bottom
earthquake rocked northern
Japan early today, causing
considerable panic and some
damage but no reported cas
ualties. The, quake was clocked at
force 8 on the Richter. scale,
meaning it was. nearly as pow
erful as the one that wrecked
San Francisco in 1906. How
ever, it was centered under
the Pacific about 150 miles
from land, so that its force
was considerably dissipated
by the time it hit Japan.
In the other direction the
wave caused waters to rise
about a foot in the Hawaiian
Islands, but no damage was
reported.
21. Apparently ho action has
been taken as yet.
Public Hearing St
The council called for a
public hearing Nov. 20 on
whether a sign by Ed Ander
son's Super Thrift market,
711 South Central ave., is
dangerous to the" public. Duff
reported the sign was. dam
aged by an automobile and
that the city has been unable
to track down the responsible
parties to have it repaired or
removed.
If the sign is found dan
gerous, Duff explained after
ward, and ownership is not
as yet determined, the city
can proceed to repair or re
move it and assess. the owner
later. .
The council continued to
