( Oahd C Fund Explained For Local Women's Group An explanation of O and C funds and their importance to Jackson county taxpayers was given recently to members of the Women's Council of the Medford Board of Realtors by S. V. "Duke" McQueen. The speaker is president and gen eral manager of the Kogap Manufacturing company. He spoke at a luncheon meeting at the Jackson hotel. Mr. McQueen told the group that "It is imperative that tax payers become informed of the facts and aware of the situation in order to protect themselves from increased property taxes in the future." O and C funds totaling $2,315,000 provided 80 per cent of the monies used to operate Jackson county gov ernment in 1959-60. The re maining 20 per cent was ob tained from gasoline tax, liquor license funds and mis cellaneous sources. Funds from O and C lands result from sale of timber on lands which congress had granted in 1866 to the old Oregon and California Rail road company. In 1916, be cause the railroad company had violated certain stipula tions involved in the land grant, Congress revested ap proximately 2,891,000 acres back to the U.S. government. It was not until 1937 that congress passed the O and C sustained yield act under which income from sales of timber goes to the 18 O and C counties, Mr. McQueen ex plained. Seventy-five per cent of the income goes to counties in lieu of taxes and 25 per cent goes to the U.S. treasury for management of the lands. Part of the act calls for estab lishment of proper manage ment of lands to insure that they will be self-sustaining Dimes Poster But With Candy on Dress By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York - IUPII - President Kennedy no doubt is used to candv smears on a little girl's new frock - after all, he has a 3-year-old daughter. But the ex perience was e m barrassmg to Mrs.' Dean Brecse, 37, the mother of the 1961 March of Gy Pauley .Dimes poster child. Mrs. Breese told of the several embarrassing, funny and altogether natural things which happen to parents when traveling with children. She, her husband, and daughter Linda, a merry but unpredict able blonde of four years, had just completed 13,000 miles and tivc months of visiting all parts of the nation. The fami ly stopped briefly in New York before returning home to Columbus, Ohio. Mrs. Breese said the cndy incident occurrent in Palm Beach, when Linda was being photographed with the then President-elect. Linda was clutching Kennedy's hand when her mother noticed chocolate marshmallow all across the front of the child's dress. What else could I do?" said Mrs. Breese. "I just scraped off all I could. Only a Senator But meeting Kennedy ap parently gave Linda a few de lusions. Later in the tour, she was scheduled to pose with Sen. Frank J. Lauschc from her home state. Linda, her mother said, told the senator she was "not much impress ed with him - she had talked already to the next President of the United States. the tot consented to pose with Lauschc, provided he Club Welcomes Caller and Wife Yrcka-Mcmbers and guests of the Yrcka square dance club, the Circlc-N-Sqiiare. held a dinner and dance Saturday evening at the Hawkinsvillc hall to welcome the new call er, Douglas Fosbury, and his wife, of Medford. The club also welcome sev eral couples of the Y Knot Square Dance club of Med ford as guests. The next dance will be held February 4 in Hawkinsvillc with a guest caller, and Mr. Fosbury will again call for the club February 18. The annual Jamboree will be held in Yreka April 8th and 9th. Church To Honor Basset Family Talent - A coffee hour will be held Sunday following the morning worship service at Talent Methodist church to honor Mr. and Mrs. Earnest Basset and family. The Bassets ate WuYin the community to make tlwir home In Washing- ten tlaM. Mvmbcrs of the (!.' m4 frieiv'c of the pp. without cost to the' federal government. One-third of the county's 75 per cent is used for timber access road development and reforestation. The remaining two-thirds goes to the county from which the receipts were obtained. In Jackson county, such O and C funds are used for general treasury purposes. "Most taxpayers do not real ize that they have not paid any tax in the last few years for county government," he declared. "They are confused because the county assessor appraises the property, com putes the millage after budg ets are approved, and mails out statements." ' Then payments are made to the county sheriff's office, he explained, and "in effect these two county departments are merely acting as billing and collecting agencies" for schools, cities and other tax ing units. County government costs lo cal taxpayers nothing, accord ing to the speaker. Sanitary districts account or .1 per cent of the tax dollar; water dis tricts, .6 per cent; rural fire districts, 1.3 per cent; cities, 17.1 per cent; and schools, 80.9 per cent. Mr. McQueen declared that "taxpayers would do well to watch closely the following possibilities: Demand for more county services which would mean higher costs of county government requiring addi tional tax burden on prop erty; reductions in O and C funds available to county by virtue of reduced dollar vol ume of timber sold to forest industries, the slack to be taken up by increased prop erty taxes; and state and fed eral attempts to siphon off O and C funds from Jackson county, resulting in higher property taxes." Girl Poses told her a succession of stor ies involving horses, monkeys and elephants - in that order. The senator, smilingly, obliged. Mrs. Breese said that on still another occasion at Palm, Beach, Linda suggested that the1 fire chief stop smoking "because you might set my dress on fire." "It's just plain silly for a fireman to smoke," she added, in a burst of mer riment. The National Foundation sponsored Linda's tour to raise funds for research and aid. It said that Linda is a victim of excess fluid on the brain, something the medical world calls hydrocephalus, and of an open spine, spina bifida. Some 250,000 U.S. children are born each year with such major birth defects, said the foundation. Rigorous Trip When Linda, one of four children, was selected as the poster child, her parents had her get a thorough physical checkup at the Columbus Children's Hospital Birth De fects Study center. Her phy sicians then gave her a go ahead for the rigorous travel. "Then," Mrs. Breese recall ed, "I got scared. I told my self 'this will be fun for Lin da,' but what about meeting all those glamorous Holly wood stats and Vice President Nixon and Mr. Kennedy and goodness knows who else." "On the tour. I was scared all right, but for the wrong reasons," she smiled. "Mr. Nixon and Mr. Kennedy and all those movie people were simply wonderful, and Linda was on cloud eight for months. "We're bushed, but bless ed," said Mrs. Breese. ". . . In five months of traveling, we found an outpouring of kind ness and patience from every body, everywhere." r COOKBOOK features quick, easy...
