n ! I- i . i In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Let's listen to our President, i i he ipeaks to us through the medium of his press confer ence which is held in his office in the White House. These are troubled times. Dangerous forces are loose in the world. There is menace for us in these forces. We need to know the TRUTH about them - including how well prepared we are to meet what ever dangers may arise. Whom BETTER can we lis ten to than our President? SITTTNG at his desk and fac ing the questioning report ers, Ike warned against WAR SCARES stemming from East West tensions. He added that our nation's defenses are POWERFUL AND SATISFACTORY for the present. TJE WAS asked specifically whether in his opinion the present situation is grave enough to warrant keeping the bombers of our Strategic Ah" Command (presumably with atom and perhaps hydro gen bombs in their bays) CONSTANTLY ALOFT and ready to strike at an instant's notice. He replied: 1. The day might come when such an alert might be necessary. "2. He sees no PRESENT need for it. 3. For the moment, mea sures taken by the Defense Department are COMPLETE LY ADEQUATE. T ETS put it this way: -V Dwight D. Eisenhower is our President. . He is our LEADER. He is the world's best known soldier. As a MAN, he is widely trusted. QO- It is reasonable to be- lieve- The thing for us to do is to go about our business, aware that we live in a" world that is full of dangers, but confident of the Tightness of our cause and of our ability to meet whatever situation we may be called upon to meet. In a word- To keep our shirts on. 4-H Club News Reese Creek Renegades . The Feb. 24 meeting of the Reese Creek Renegades was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Esp.

David Caloway Reporter Neuberger Takes Swipe at Hatfield In Tax Proposals By A. ROBERT SMITH Washington Correspondent, The Mail Tribune Washington (Special)- Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.) took a broad swipe at Gov. Mark Hatfield Thursday and introd uced four revenue raising bills to help pay for more federal pro grams without in creasing the national debt. V S A. Robt. Smit A am ouer- ing these bills today because the time has come when we must confront the long range implications of the need to pay for the governmental services made essential by the urgency of the 20th century," Neuberger told the Senate. Senator Raps Hatfield Referring to Hatfield, Neu berger said: "He glibly promised the voters lower taxes and a smaller budget. These prom ises proved impossible from the time he took the oath of office, and disillusionment has steadily set in. Both he and our state would have benefit ed if he had candidly told the voters that increasing num bers of school children and college students made lower taxes and smaller budgets in Oregon out of the question." Neuberger's four proposals are: 1. Increase federal gasoline tax lVz cents a gallofi to raise $724 million as President Ei senhower has recommended. 2. Reduce tax depletion al lowance on oil and gas pro ducers from 27 Vz to 15 per cent to raise $325 million. 3. Allow the Post Office De partment to adjust postal rates, just as Bonneville Pow er Administration adjusts power rates and forest agen cies determine minimum fed eral timber charges. This would eliminate postal deficit by raising $350 million. The Administration has also pro posed that Congress increase postal rates once again. 4. Reinstate excess - profits tax of 1950, which Neuberger said would hit profiteering in armament making and related industry now benefiting by large defense expenditures. He said this tax produced $1.6 billion in 1953 before expir ing. . Against Tax Boost Neuberger said 29 govern ors, including Hatfield, have recently come out against Ei senhower's gas tax boost. "I have great respect for the intelligence of the aver age citizen," he said. "I think he would rather be told the truth than a palpable political falsehood. I doubt if there are very many motorists who think the federal government can go on putting up 90 per cent of the cost of the im pressive new four-lane inter state express highways with out raising federal taxes on motor fuels to cover increased costs of this program," said Neuberger. Sen. Wayne Morse entered the chamber as Neuberger neared the conclusion of his speech, but did not join in the discussion.

'Made in Japan1 Not Up To Previous Standards Of Playhouse 90 Shows By WILLIAM EWALD . New York - (UPD - "Made in Japan," Thursday night's CBS-TV Playhouse 90, was a earnest play at times, a moderately in teresting one. But it was not quite up to the mark that Playhouse 90 has set most of this season. Its skeleton William Ewald was built around a young American sol dier who precipitated the death of an inconvenient Jap anese girl friend and then in duced three buddies to alibi him. This frame was used as underpropping for a tidy lec ture in tolerance and respon sibility, all of it pretty pain less. But the trouble with "Made in Japan" lay in its skeleton it was not a very well-made play. Its climax was not reached when the young GI decided to confess his errors late in the evening-that event cnrt nf crlirlpH in nnH srmatted in among a set of bones that Flores, the drama's course was not only predictable, but robbed of its tensions. At one point, as a matter of fact, a sumo wrestling match was even inserted just to jazz things up and while it was a fascinating side excursion, it also was rater superfluous. Despite the lack of taut scaffolding, the players man aged to work fairly persua sively. Dean Stockwell, Dick York, E. G. Marshall and Rob ert Vaughn were on board to good effect and they were aided by a young Canadian Japanese lady,' Nobu McCar thy, who was not only ex tremely ornamental, but pro Child Stealing Charged To Woman Ontario, Calif.
