No Early Hearings on Negro Voting Rights in South Seen Tax i Program Along Lines Acceptable To Eisenhower Washington - (UPI) - A politically-cautious election-year tax bill shaped up in the Democratic Congress today pretty much along lines ac ceptable to President Eisenhower. f 3rd Anniversary! Court Decision Rejects Protests From Louisiana Washington-IM - A Civil Rights commission spokesman saw little likelihood that Neg ro voting rights hearings will be pressed immediately in the South despite a Supreme Court victory. The commission declined of ficial comment on Monday 7-2 court ruling, which reject ed complaints by Louisiana voting registrars that the hearings denied them proper constitutional safeguards Spade) Work Necessary But a spokesman privately pointed out that considerable spade work is necessary to prepare for a hearing. He also aaid the six-man commission, which met last week, is not expected to hold another ses sion until late July. Although stalled hearings In Shreveport and In other Southern states can now go forward, the commissioners must first discuss next steps on the basis of the court's ruling. In its far-reaching decision the high court struck down lower court rulings that had prevented the commission from pursuing its inquiries. The opinion held that chal lenged hearing procedures were legal and proper under the circumstances. Marking Tim The commission has been marking time since last July pending a final court settle ment of the challenge to its procedures raised by Louisi ana authorities. Dissenters were Justice Hu go L. Black and William O. Douglas. They agreed with Louisiana officials who con tended the commission's hear ing procedures violated the rights of witnesses.

Susan Tinslcy, Reporter 3-6162 or SP 2-7111 The revenue measure, ap proved unanimously by the Senate 84-0, would in the main extend present corpora tion taxes and Korean War excise levies on such items as liquor, cigarettes and new automobiles. Goes lo Conference Because of differences, it goes to a conference of House and Senate tax writers where give-and-take bargaining but no serious disputes are ex pected. The $4,500,000,000 tax bill was brought in line with ad ministration recommendations when the Senate refused to adopt a move by its finance committee to cut out a 10 per cent federal tax on local tele phone calls, telegrams and travel. The House already has agreed to continue the taxes. Controversial Amendments But the Senate adopted two controversial amendments to the House version which would wipe out some so-called "swindle sheet" business de ductions and the present tax credit on dividends. National Debt Ceiling These are expected to be whittled down by the con ferees. Another feature of the bill would be a temporary nation al debt ceiling of $293 billion for the next year. The cor poration tax rate would be continued for another 12 months after June 30. The crackdown on business expense deductions was adopt ed by a Senate roll call vote of 45-39. Other Senate changes de signed to raise new cash were elimination of the special tax credit on dividend income and a tightening of the min erals depletion allowance. Clark Offers Amendment Sen. Joseph S. Clark (D Pa.) offered the business ex pense amendment. He said it would rule out "swindle sheets" on business entertain ment expenses, gifts exceed ing $10 and club dues. He said it would allow deductions only for "food and liquor." You can feed em and drink 'em, wine 'em and dine em, but anything else is out of order," he said. High School Teacher Receives Fellowship Vcrn F. Wolthoff, teacher of journalism and American problems at Medford High school, began a six-week Gen eral Electric fellowship in economics at Stanford univer sity Monday.

Meanwhile, pilots for Na tional Airlines called off their strike, scheduled for one min ute after midnight today, and agreed to meet With national officials to discuss wage, Japanese People Hope World Won't Misinterpret Riots Tokyo - (UPD - The Japanese people want to make it clear to the world that the bloody riots of the past month were not anti-American nor anti Eisenhower. One of the biggest fears in Japan in the aftermath of the cancelation of President Ei senhower's visit is that the world may misinterpret what has really happened. Picture Not Explained They have seen the head lines in newspapers from New York, London, Paris - and they insist these headlines cannot explain the whole pic ture. They know Japan has re ceived a black eye because of the rough treatment accorded press secretary James Hager ty upon his arrival here, and because Japan could not guar antee the President s safety for a two and a half day visit. But this is the way one of Japan 5 largest national news papers said it editorially: Deep Concern Exists Cyclist Arrested Following Accident Medford police arrested a 32-year-old motorcycle oper ator on a charge of drunk in public Sunday morning fol lowing a motorcycle accident on Central ave.. between Boyd st. and Riverside ave.

Ordered Back In Atlanta and Miami, East ern pilots were reported re turning to work after two federal judges refused to sanction the wildcat walkout and the pilots' own executive council ordered its members back to their controls. A federal judge also order ed striking Pan American Air lines pilots back to work. But John C. Cropper, a spokesman for Eastern pilots in the New York area, said the returning pilots misunder stood the issues. He said he expected them to walk out again later today. It is hoped that the people of the United Stales will un derstand the situation in Ja pan. A deep concern for worsening economic relations between the two nations ex ists, with many Americans apparently taking recent de velopments as indicating anti Americanism on the part of Japan. "The nationwide demand for the withdrawal of Prime Minister Kobusuke Kishi and the dissolution of the Diet (parliament) does not indicate anti-American feeling. If the American people believe the anti - Kishi feeling represents anti - American feeling, they grossly m i s understand the real situation in Japan Train-Car Crash Reported at Taleni A train-car accident about 6:10 o'clock this morning at the Talent railroad crossing was reported to state police.
