Pearson late Friday proposed a bill for gradual abolition of the Oregon personal property tax. But he said it would prob ably mean an increase in tax ation of real property. Personal property is any thing that isn't "nailed down," such as office furnishings and equipment. Real property is land and buildings. The Senate Education com mittee, of which Pearson a member, agreed to introduce it as a committee bill. Assessed values on business inventories would be cut 20 per cent a year for five years, Since some of the burden would be shifted to homeown ers who pay real property taxes Pearson suggests a two per cent cut in assessed values each vear tor five years. The Portland Democrat said the amount of revenue de rived from the property tax is not enough to warrant re placing it with another tax. lnsfituietoHold Sessions at Phoenix Phoenix - The Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies will conduct five educational sessions in atomic energy at the Phoenix High school March 23.

Erin Mcrkel. Attending will be Chief Sanitarian Orie Moore, and Sanitarians William R. Dier eix and George Runyan. "The theme this year is based on the incorporation of a vector control program into the general sanitarian's ac tivities," according to the Oregon state board of health.

Primary purpose of the short course is to give a broad generalized picture of vector control ac tivities which may be used by all sanitarians. MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. ORE.

Sara B. - Tliev tell us never to give a present to one child, always both. Mabel M. - We want to ore- vent jealousy between our daughters. Sara B. - My sister and brother-in-law have two little girls, one 4, the other 7. Since my husband and 1 trav el around the country exten sively, we come across inter esting loys and souvenirs and we like to mail them home to the children. But Mabel says that, unless we can send two identical tokens, not to send any. We don't get it. The chil dren are different ages, dif ferent types. The older one, Nancy, is graceful and petite, while the baby, Nelly, is chub by and muscular. Nancy is al ways dancing and singing, so we like to send her things like recordings and harmoni cas, as well as Indian belts and Scottish kilts. For Nelly, we buy picture books and games. Sometimes it s impossible to get duplicates of a gift. We can't understand Mabel's rea son for treating her daughters like carbon copies of each other, when anyone can sec they're completely different. Mabel M.-My husband and I have seen too many ex amples of deep-rooted jeal ousy between brothers and sisters. We decided to try to avoid this with our children, from the start. I can't worry about how this looks to others, including my sister who, I know, is really devoted to us and the girls. I'm more concerned with the effect of presents on the recipients, my children, than with the annoyance of the donors over my request to send two-at-a-time.

TO 8 IN TUZ MEDrORD This way, Nancys auto matic reaction to any joy is, "Where's Nelly's'?" Before she begins to play with a ball, or try on a blouse, she waits to make sure Nelly has one too. We think this is planting a lifelong solicitude lor eacn other. In fact Nancv coined a nun about our rule which sums it up: "I don't share unless 1 have two." The Council: While the goal Mabel and her husband have in view is laudable, their method betrays some confu sion on wlial consuuiies "equal" treatment. No two individuals arc so alike that you can limit them, willy nilly, to the same kind of at tention, even though you are careful to give them the same amount of attention. These two little girls are learning to check up on whether Sister has something, but with no idea whether it's the right thing. It's like handling out sweaters to everyone in an office because the boss feels chilly. Some of them may need a fan. Aunt Sara is right in ask ing her sister to examine the ruling which is so rigid and extreme as to be unrealistic in terms of lite as these chil dren will have to live it. They're not really learning to share. They're learning to measure and compare. Unless they start from the same point and run to the same goal in the same time, they won't play. There's another point, one which we've heard many times from the older or oldest of a group of siblings who re ceive identical treats.

"When I was 4 I didn't get my own microscope. Why should he? I had to wait until I was 7!" They do like a few special nods toward their seniority. But if it's character-training Mabel and her husband have in mind they'll get fur ther by teaching a little giv-ing-up when there's a short age, rather than a divvying up when there's a glut. It's harder on parents and chil dren, of course. But it makes life easier and more reward ing later, this ability to sac rifice and share.
