Danger' Flags Flying High in Democratic Party's Dixie Stronghold Capitol Memo Oregon May Have Answer To Keeping Farmers on Farm Br DOUGLAS GRIPP Salem -(UPD - Oregon may havt the answer to keeping them "down on the ,farm But it's not the kids, iff the (armen themselves. The proposal, called the farm use tax deferral, was approved last week end by Legislative Interim Tax Com mittee and will be recoom- mended to the 1961 legisla ture. The aim is to keep farm lands in urban and suburban areas for farm use. Many a farmer running a dairy on the edge of a grow ing city finds his property aurrounded by new, subdlv-tions.

So, the farmer finds his land on the tax rolls at the same higher rate. Several states have tried to solve this problem. California allows special zoning and tax es to be paid at a lower farm use rate rather than on a sub division basis. But this allows speculators to buy farm lands, nut them to farm use for a few years and when the nrnnprtv around him has built up sell the land as subdivision prop erty. .',!,.. The aDDroach of the tax committee, coupled with ac tion bv the Legislative In. terim Committee on Agricul ture, is novel. : A bill proposed by the a rlculture group provides for zoning for farm use. But the tax committee recommends that before the lands can be taken, out of farm zoning, the owner has to pay seven years back , taxes at the high er subdivision rate. This is designed to discour age the speculators. 'The committee feels that a farmer should have the op portunity; to continue as a farmer, despite urban growth, without being taxed to a point that he is forced to sell," the tax report says. "However, it does, not want to give a sub sidy to persons, hot sincerely intending to continue their farm operations." The proposal is not expect ed to meet with favor with all farmers.

Ernest Vandiver of Georgia attend ed church services in Hot Springs, Ark., during the re cent Southern Governors con ference and heard a sermon delivered on anti-Catholicism. . Farris Bryant, Democratic nominee for governor of Flor ida, attended a news confer ence and told reporters he could not "intelligently, mo rally or physically" campaign actively for the national Dem ocratic ticket. ' ' Gov. Ross' Barnett of Mis sissippi attended a White Cit izens council rally and told a segregationist audience the South should get behind inde pendent electors in the Nov. 8 presidential election in a show of repudiating the lib eral platforms of both parties. All this means that danger flags are flying for the regu lar Democratic party in Dixie in the final weeks of the pres idential campaign. Third Parties Limited Although organized third party sympathies are very lim ited in this year s campaign, family fighting within Demo cratic ranks in the South has caused a surge of hopes in the Republican organization. West Virginia Gov. Cecil Under wood, a Republican, says the GOP has a chance to take most of the states In Dixie and will do "at least as well" as four years ago. In 1056 President Eisenhow er captured 106 electoral votes in the 16-state area of south em and border states covered by the Southern Governors conference. They were Dela ware, Florida, Kentucky, Lou isiana, Maryland, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia. The Democratic ticket, headed by Adlai Stevenson, won 61 electoral votes in Ala bama, Arkansas-, Georgia, Mis sissippi, .North Carolina,, and South Carolina.

Robinson, Illinois Jafniffhtf cians are unwilling to bet their all on which way the South will go, but here are some of the issues that are concerning the voters: Religious - Dixie .is still predominantly Protestant, and Sen. John Kennedy's Roman Catholic faith will have some bearing on voter preference. But there is about as much of a campaign on to neutralize this issue as there is to pro mote it. Racial - Only the similarity of both party platforms on civil rights is preventing a more pronounced upheaval in conservative southern ranks. International - Southerners are openly concerned as per haps never before in the na tion's foreign affairs. Almost to a man, southern governors have named America's deal ings with Russia and world communism during the next four years the most important issue of the I960 presidential race. They put it far ahead of the civil rights dispute. Alcoholics Cure Selves by Having 'Sick Parties' New Haven, Conn. -(Science S e r v i c e)- Alcoholics known as the, "bucket bri gade" are getting together for daily drinking parties that end when everyone is ' thor oughly sick. The. parties last less than an hour and the main cocktail is plain water. Drs. Ernest C. Miller and B. Anthony Dvorak and third year medical student Don W. Turner, all of the Tulane Uni versity School of Medicine, New Orleans, La., explained that the experimental parties are designed to teach the al coholics that any alcoholic beverage will make" them vomit. Drugs that enhance emesis (vomiting) when alco hol is consumed are used to help the patients along. Bucket and Towel When the party begins, each patient enters the room with a bucket and a towel. He is given a water glass and a jigger glass. On a spotlighted table is an array of vodka, Scotch,' bourbon, gin, rye, rum, wines, 95 per cent ethyl alcohol a liquer and beer. After drinking two glasses of water, each patient gets an injection of a drug mixture containing emetine and is then asked to pour a drink for himself. At frequent intervals each man sniffs at his glass, and only when gagging be gins, or when it seems likely that the individual is about to vomit, is he asked to drink the liquor. Between bouts of emesis, the patients are en couraged to drink- large amounts of water and as many Deer Park, N.Y.-Bert Alick son went fishing and ended up with $100 and an alligator. The alligator, three-foot long, had been stolen a month earlier from a home. Alickson was given $100 reward for finding it. different beverages as possi ble are included in the pour-sniff-drink routine. Power of Suggestion The group was not released until "all doubt- is dispelled from the mind of each partici pant that he cannot tolerate any of the alcoholic bever ages on the table." This usu ally took 30 to 45 minutes a day for two weeks. ' The power of suggestion that the smell, taste or even the sight of alcohol produced nausea and vomiting - was very strong among members of the group. In many cases, the researchers reported in the Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol, it was ad vantageous to include a "ringer" or previously con ditioned member in the group. ' The project has been in op eration eight months, and to date, five of the 20 patients treated have' remained ab stinent, three have had brief tiente have returned to their lapse" ot from one to three old habUsJhe other ten hav. days of dnnmng ana two MAKE IT A SOCIABLE WEEKEND Pick up an Extra fbO V ' Carton y STEAK SALE Fancy "Choice" Well Aged STEMS T BONE STEAKS $1109 u lb.
