Stale Hospital
Approved by AMA
For New Program
Salem-uIPD-The State Board
of Control head Thursday that
Oreeon State hospital had
been aDoroved by the Ameri
fan Medical association as one
of the few state hospitals in
the country where a doctor
can become a psychiatrist.
The AMA approved a three
vear residency program at the
hospital for doctors to qualify
for psychiatry. Currently the
hospital has a two-year train
ing program.
'ZTthe board took no action
on a report of the Capitol
Planning commission which
suggested a study of proposed
walkways from the capitoi to
the new labor and industries
building and also increased
parking facilities.
Siudr Now 'lilusionary'
Gov. Mark Hatfield said he
thought it would be "illusion-
ary" to go ahead with studies
now.
z; He based his views on the
fact that the "referendum on
the major state tax bill may
Be successful and that the peo
ple must also vote next No
vember on a bond issue for
buildings."
T There would be plenty of
time for studies next year, the
governor was informed.
The board of control staff
said they would meet Aug. 12
with applicants for superin
tendent of the mid-Columbia
Home for the Aged at The
Dalles.
As a policy matter, the
board decided to consider in
dividual cases of deaf children
who appeared to be receiving
no help from the state school
for the deaf here.
, The board will also study
whether or not to hire a teach
er of the deaf at Fairview
home for the mentally re
tarded. Governor Hatfield thanked
Art Handley, assistant board
secretary, for his service to
the state and wished him well
In his new job as deputy com
missioner of the Wisconsin
Administration Department.
State Legislatures Reach Into
Wallets to Keep Books in Black
STEAL-AWAY
Eureka, Calif. -fiJPD- Herbert
Whitney invited his son and
daughter and their families to
spend the week end at his
summer cabin. But they didn't
have much fun. When they
got there they found that
someone had dismantled the
20 by 40-foot cabin and haul
ed away the lumber.

Washington - (UPD - Jjf a t
Legislatures reached inu tax
payers wallets for hundreds
of millions of dollars this year
to keep state bank accounts
in the black and finance
record budgets.
Lawmakers in almost all of
the 46 states with legislatures
meeting in 1959 have ap
proved or still must approve
budgets at. an all time high.
In some cases, they found
that the tax take from eco
nomic growth or the bounce-
back from the 1958 recession
would cover the increased
drain on the Treasury.
But in many other states,
the Legislatures glumly
agreed that they had to raise
taxes. Some tried new tax
gimmicks but most of them
simply raised income taxes,
sales taxes or excises on
liquor, beer and tobacco.
New York, North Carolina,
Oklahoma, South Carolina
and Utah joined the federal
government and about a
dozen other states which im
pose withholding taxes on
paychecks to help insure col
lection of income taxes. Idaho
levied a $10 head tax on each
income tax return filed.
Oklahoma Goes Wet
Colorado, Ohio, Maine and
Utah put a tax on hotel and
motel bills. Nebraska levied
a new tax on pari-mutuel bet
ting. The heretofore dry state
of Oklahoma legalized liquor,
and the Legislature promptly
taxed it, $2.40 a gallon to
yield sn estimated $3,500,000
a year.
Cigarette smokers were a
favored target in the search
for new revenue. California,
which had no cigarette tax,
got a levy of 3 cents a pack
age when the Legislature ap
proved 222 million of Gov.
Edmund G. Brown's 258 mil
lion dollar tax program.
Of 11 other states which
increased cigarette taxes this
year, Iowa and Wyoming
went to four cents a pack;
Idaho, New York, Ohio, "South
Carolina and South Dakota to
5 cents; Minnesota Wi Penn
sylvania and Washington, 6;
SURE SHOT
San Jose, Calif . - (UPD - A 7-
year-old boy fired six shots at
the targets in ;. shooting gal
lery and missed five times.
The sixth shot hit Richard
Sikorski, 31, in the backside.
The injury was more paintful
than serious.
and Vermont 7 cents. Accord
ing to the Tobacco Institute,
25 states now collect cigarette
taxes of 5 cents or more per
package on top of the 8-cent
federal tax.
In Minnesota, the Legisla
ture boldly approved slight
increase in the beer tax,
which had been untouchable
for 25 years. Although it
balked at a withholding tax,
it also raised taxes on person
al and corporate income, li
quor, cigarettes and other tax
sources as part of a 45 million
dollar tax package.
Besides California with its
222 million dollars of new
taxes, states with six-figure
tax increase packages this
year included: Ohio, 275 mil
lion dollars; New York, 273
million; Illinois, 135 million
and Washington, 112 million
dollars.
In the crisis-ridden state of
Michigan, the legislature ap
pears to be moving toward a
sales tax increase from 3 to 4
or 5 per cent, with an exemp
tion for food if it goes to 5.
Action along this line would
kill off Gov! G. Mennen Wil
liams' proposal for a new
state income tax as part of
his 140 million dollar tax
plan.
The Washington State Leg
islature raised the sales tax
from 3 13 to 4 per cent and
increased other levies, too.
Although they controlled the
legislature, the Democrats
failed to muster the necessary
two-thirds vote to get a refer
endum on a constitutional
amendment . to authorize an
income tax.
Four Stales Up Gas Tax
After the recent rash of
state gasoline tax increases,
fewer states reached for the
motorist this year.r Among
those which did were New
York with a gas tax increase
from 4 to 6 cents a gallon,
Ohio from 5 to 7 and New
Hampshire and West Virginia
from 6 to 7. Proposed gas
tax increases are still pending
in Massachusetts and Penn
sylvania.
Several governors presum
ed to have national political
ambitions as candidates or
kingmakers had to wrestle
with record-breaking budgets
and sizeable tax programs
this year. Beside Brown and
Williams on the Democratic
side, they included Republi
can Govs. Nelson A. Rocke
feller of New York and Wil
liam G. Stratton of Illinois
and Democratic Gov. Michael
V. DiSalle of Ohio.
In California, where the
Legislature concentrated on
upper bracket taxpayers in
voting an income tax in
crease, Democratic members
liked to compare their plan
with what they called Rocke
feller's "soak the poor" in
come tax schedule.
In an order delaying new
state construction in Illinois,
Stratton had Michigan in
mind when he said his ad
ministration was "not going
to wake up some morning and
find we can't meet our , pay
rolls." .
