may be a worker's belief that
"nobody up there cares about

. Most ; employees develop
psychological ties with their
organization, and when they
feel that this psychological

may respond by withdrawing
from their work, Levinson de

Interim Agriculture Committee Recommends Mew Procedures
Salem - (DPS - The Legisla
tive Interim committee on ag
riculture has recommended a
bill calling for new proce
dures for taxing and zoning of
farm lands.
Certain property taxes on
land zoned exclusively f o r
farm use would be deferred
as long as it was continued
to be farmed. When the land
is removed from this category,
deferred taxes for five years
back would be due.
The committee said much
land near cities is assessed at
higher urban land values' al
though it is used for farm
purposes, and should be taxed
at a lower rate.
The Legislative Interim Tax
committee is recommending
a similar bill except it sug
gests a seven-year back pay
ment for rezoned property.

he added.
Despite the great increase
in the use. of psychological
and psychiatric consultants in
industry, Levinson noted,
managers frequently have
trouble relatingpsychological
data to their everyday activities.
psychological test scores
may be used to help select
personnel, but the fact that
employees might have cer
tain feelings toward their
work often is regarded as un
important, studies showed.. -.
In general, he pointed out,
research in industrial mental
health has shifted from an ex
clusive preoccupation with the
individual person and his
symptoms toward an equal
concern with the forces in
the working ., environment
which may contribute to men
tal illness or health. '
Job Fulfills Needs
'Levinson explained that
man seeks to meet a number
of psychological needs in his
work. "He seeks a way of
coping with- the inevitable
changes in his life; he tries to
obtain a balanced . relation
ship with the people with
whom he works so he can be
comfortable with them with
out losing his privacy; and he
must be able to depend on
other people and his company
if he is to have a working re
lationship with both of them."
He said the results of sev
eral studies indicate that the
lower a person's skill, the less
somebody cares about him,
the less he is involved in any
kind of decision making, and
the less responsibility he has
for his work and what hap
pens to him in the course of
his job. ,. , ' .
No Real Investment '
He may perform, Levinson
said, but only under certain
kinds of pressure. This kind
of person has no real invest
ment in what he does, but he
does care about what happens
to himself.
Because little credence has
been given to the unconscious
motivation of work, "human
relations" programs have of
ten become little more than
lessons in manipulating peo
ple by various artificial de
vices,, according to Levinson.
Naturally, he noted, manipu
lation is bound to fail, just as
gimmicks of any kind are
bound to fail.
And it is for this reason
that management is becoming
leery of manipulation. Slowly
it is recognizing the impor
tance of enabling people to
share in decision-making and
in responsibility for what
they do, Levinson stated. '
