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."
