Duff Discusses Coming Election, Assessment Plan
(Continued from Pag 1)
Actually, the downtown
parking district i guaran
teeing the payments by an
nual assessments for property
in the parking district, but
the measure will still carry
the full faith and credit of
the city.
During 1957, parking meter
revenues in certain areas rose
by increasing the hours of me
ter time and by increasing
the meter rate on selected me
ters. This action increased
parKing meter revenue ap-.
proximately $15,000 annual
ly, which will almost equal
the 25 per cent of parking me
ter monies mentioned in the
proposed amendment. No in
crease in the tax levy is con
templated. Public Hearing
No bonds may be sold un
til after the parking district
is established following pub
lic hearings.

Reference has been made to
a $50,000 item in the 1957-58
budget for off-street parking.
This was an amount estab
lished in the budget to be off
set by anticipated additional
revenue of an equal amount.
However, only a small por
tion of the anticipated reven
ue was received, and this was
placed into the general fund.
No expenditures for off-street
parking were made in the
1957-58 budget.
Matter Of Opinion
A question has been posed
as to the need of holding the
special election prior to the
formation of the downtown as
sessment district. This is pure
ly a matter of opinion. The
City Council is of the pin
ion that the prior approval
of the Charter Amendment by
the general electorate is both
prudent and necessary. With
out voter approval the mech
anics of establishing the dis
trict and other costly legal
procedures would be waste
ful. These are the facts in the
matter. Further action is up
to the voters at the polls, Wed
nesday, December 10. Voter
approval is necessary if the
balance of the capital im
provement program is to be
carried out.
Head of Cattlemen
Warns of Evils
In Wilderness Bill
Santa Rosa, Calif. -(DPI)- The
president of the American Na
tional Cattlemen's association
said yesterday that any law to
preserve wilderness play-
grounds must recognize the
needs of all citizens rather
than just those of a few
sportsmen.
G. R. Milburn, Grassrange,
Mont., told the 42nd annual
convention of the California
Cattlemen's association that
the public "will not allow big
areas of the West to be segre
gated permanently if it fully
understands the provisions in
the so-called Wilderness Pres
ervation bill now under con
gressional consideration.
Milburn charged that con
servationists are trying . to
"ram through a bill to deny
use of millions of acres for
any purpose except for recre
ation afoot or horseback.
"As a matter of practical
conservation, protection must
be given our public lands -as
stockmen realize so well,"
he said. "But any law that
would seal off huge areas
from development of any kind
is as wrong as no protection at
all."
Oregon Sheriffs
Favor Increasing
Auto License Fee
- Portland -UPD- The Oregon
State Sheriff's association
went on record yesterday
wits a proposal to add $1 a
year to the motor vehicle li
cense fee.
The added cost is proposed
to finance sheriff's patrols on
roads not covered by state
police.
The proposal was presented
by Sen. Carl Francis, Yam
hill county, who said he
would introduce appropriate
legislation at the 1959 Legis
lature. Bill For Bureau
Also approved was a plan
introduced by Francis to re
submit a bill passed by the
1957 Legislature and vetoed
by Gov. Robert D. Holmes for
establishment of a central
criminal identification bureau
under the state police.
The sheriff's approved a res
olution introduced by Sheriff
Edward W. Elder of Lane
county to suDDort a work-re
lease type legislation for all
county prisoners.
Regular Jobs
The resolution. atroroved bv
a 10-4 vote, would allow pris
oners to attend regular jobs
and return within the sheriffs
discretion.
The resolution noted that
"welfare Tolls in most coun
ties are burdened with famil
ies of jail inmates."

Ike May Ask
Increased Taxes
New York-(DPB-The admin
istration's top budget official
hinted yesterday that Presi
dent Eisenhower may ask for
higher taxes if the new Con
gress thwarts his efforts to
hold down federal spending.
Budget Director Maurice H.
Stans said the President will
send the heavily-Democratic
new Congress a budget for
fiscal year 1960 as tight as
the law allows.
Then, Stans said, the choice
is up to the American people.
If they demand-and Congress
votes-more spending than tax
revenues can cover, thereby
unbalancing the budget, "the
government should spell out
what new taxes must be
raised."
In a speech prepared for
Dean's Day ceremonies at
New York university, Stans
said "it is time for realism
in government finances-in the
federal budget."
