Democratic Congress today
pretty much along lines ac
ceptable to President Eisenhower.

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.

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.
Wolthoff is one of 50 west
ern high school teachers se
lected on a competitive basis
to take the course. Three
teachers are attending from
Oregon.
The all expense paid pro
gram, administered by Stan
ford and sponsored by the
General Electric Foundation
was Instituted because there
have been no programs for
social studies teachers in the
economics area that were of
sufficient intensity or dura
tion.

Pilots' Work Return Said
To Be 'Misunderstanding7
By United Press International
The wildcat pilots' strike
against Eastern Airlines ap
peared to be crumbling today,
but a pilots' spokesman in
New York said the apparent
back-to-work movement was
nothing but a "misunderstand
ing." Another strike leader in
Miami said he would go back
to work, but hinted the pilots
might strike again-this time
legally.
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:

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.
Involved was a car oper
ated by Charles Milton Gee,
27, of route 1, box 566, Tal
ent, and a 67-car freight train
with a caboose and three en
gines. .
Train engineer was Howard
Earle Delong, 2190 Dalton dr.,
Eugene.
According to police, the
northbound train was pro
ceeding at the designated
speed at 35 mph while at the
same time the Involved car
was traveling east about 25
mph on Main st. The car hit
the left, front corner of the
engine causing heavy dam
age to the car, police said.
After the impact, the train
travelled some 050 feet, it
was estimated.
Gee said his brakes failed,
and was notified by state po
lice that a complaint would
be filed against him for no
operators license."
Although no serious Injur
ies were reported, Gee did
suffer minor bruises.

Cropper said 396 out of 450
Eastern pilots in the New
York area voted last night to
boycott flights in protest
against demands that federal
aviation agency inspectors
ride in the third pilot's seat
in cockpits.
Too Sick To Work
A spokesman for Pan Amer
ican in New York said today
that since 5 p.m. Friday 149
crew members have reported
they were too sick to work,
but 21 of them have since
said they recovered. The
spokesman said 12 outbound
passenger and cargo flights,
mostly to Latin America, have
been canceled since Friday.
No Pan - Am transatlantic
flights have been called off,
but some have been delayed
as much as 12 hours.
A spokesman for Eastern
Air Lines, however, said EAL
pilots were showing up for
work and he hoped operations
would get back to near nor
mal today.
