CHRYSLER CHIYSICI DIVISION, CHUrSllt COirOlATIOi Time Seen (or Deep-Ranging Study of Tactics Washington tUPU A sober mood 'of reassessment rather than recrimination prevailed in Washington today as an aftermath of the cancellation of President Eisenhower' visit to Japan. In Congress and at the State Department, officials said it was time for a deep-ranging appraisal of Communist tac tics to disrupt this country's policies throughout the world. On Capitol Hill, there was temperate Democratic criti cism of the administration's recent foreign policy setbacks - Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's torpedoing of the summit, his canceling of the President's trip there, and Thursdays Tokyo development. Sen. J. William Fulbright (D-Ark.) of the Senate foreign relations committee called for "some close review and atten tion to our affairs in foreign policy." Comment Restrained He spoke of "lack of fore sight and ineptitude in plan ning" in recent developments, But general tenor of con gressional comment was re strained. A question of Where do we go from here?" was heard instead of any par tisan cries of blaming- the President. State Department officials were inclined to minimize the immedate impact of the Eisen hower trip cancellation but acknowledge privately the de velopment called for a long range look at the entire cold war situation. Most agreed that for a long time, the personal diplomacy approach pursued recently by both Eisenhower and Khru shchev is a dead soldier. Most also agreed that the spirit of king mob, which in three riot - marked months has brought the fall of govern ments in South Korea, Tur key and now probably Japan, seemed to be gaining ground, as a political and diplomatic technique. Urges Review Fulbright said "It's not where do we go from here but where do we stay. We need to stay home and work." Another foreign relations member. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.), said the Japan incident shows that the whole subject of Ameri can military overseas bases needs constant review." Some officials contended the demonstrations in Japan were inspired and probably financed by Russia and Com munist China. There were re ports of unusually heavy dip lomatic courier tratflc from Soviet-bloc nations to Japan in recent months.

WALT'S LITHIA MOTORS HAMLIN MOTOR COMPANY 56-60 Main Ashland 8th & Front Medford Thornton Rules on Property Tax Levy Salem-(UPD-T tax levy im posed against annexed prop erty cannot be altered during subsequent years to reflect an amount that could have been levied at the time of annexa tion, according to Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton. Union County District At torney George L. Anderson Jr. requested the opinion.
