Twining Warns On Complacency Over Russ Power Washington -IUPII- A former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff has warned the United States against falling into "the complacency of des pair" through accepting a be lief that Russia has more mili tary power.

He said the nation should not accept the "distorted be liefs" professed by some ama teur and professional pessi mists" who say the nation is second best to the Russians in military power. 'These beliefs are distort ed," he said. "That some peo ple believe them is bad. What is even worse, however, is that so many seem willing to accept these distortions and live with them. "This is what could be called the complacency of des pair," he said. "This is what I must warn against tonight. This sort of feeling can lead to a national cringing." Twining appeared before the association to accept the James Forrestal Memorial Award, given annually to an American "who has most ef fectively applied Mr. Forres tal's ideal to the concepts and requirements of national se curity." Newbry Opposes Cigarette Tax Salem - (tIPlI - Sen. Lyndel Newbry (R-Talent) said today he would rather see income taxes raised than see a stale cigarette tax enacted. He emphasized that neither seems necessary. , Such a tax is "discrimin atory" because it "taxes the addiction of certain people to certain products and not all the people of Oregon," Newbry said. He said he is strongly op posed to HB 1003, which would put a 3-cenl tax on each package of cigarettes. Rising sentiment against the proposal appeared to be putting it on its way to defeat this session. Newbry said that even if it should pass, it would no doubt be referred to the peo ple - and they have con sistently rejected it. Tuscaloosa, Ala. OT Charles H.
