Marshall, a crop specialist for the Texas Stabilization and Conservation Committee, died under mysterious circum stances five months later. Conflicting Testimony There has been conflicting testimony about what Mar shall told John Dennison and Richard D. Naylor, two of Estes' lawyers, at the meeting Jan. 17, 1961. Dennison has never said so directly; but he left the im pression in a statement made to Agriculture Department in vestigators that Marshall tnougni the transfers were legal. Allen, now a dairy farmer in Provo, Utah, told the sub committee that the meeting attended by himself, Marshall, Estes' lawyers and two county committee members lasted for an hour and a half or two hours. Sen. Karl E. Mundt (R-S.D.) directly asked the former of ficial whether Marshall had said the Estes transfer plan was "not valid and an illegal scheme." "Yes," Allen replied. Seemed Routine Allen begged off a number of questions from the subcom mittee on grounds that he was "not a detail man . . ." He said his job mostly involved "public relations" and that the cotton transfer problem seemed routine to me. The subcommittee already has conducted its own brief inquiry into the circumstances of Marshall's death June 3 1961. Members concluded that a man could not kill himself by firing five shots into his side from a bolt action rifle like the one which killed Marshall. The death originally was called a suicide. The ruling was recently re viewed by a grand jury which could not reach a verdict.

They have moved to Grants : Pass from Newport where they participated in the Lin coln county reappraisal com pleted earlier this year. County Assessor Don Jones said tl:e reappraisal office will be located in the base ment of the "old Library Building" west of the court house. Jones said appraisers from his staff will be assigned to the project as soon as facilities and operating pro cedures can be put into ef fect. First area of the county to be appraised will be the City of Grants Pass and ad jacent suburban area. Preparation of ownership maps, one of the most valu able features of the reapprais al, has been in progress for several months. The drafts men are working in tax com mission headquarters in Sa lem with specialized equip ment as well as in the county on this part of the program. The Josephine contract with the state tax commission calls for a complete revaluation of all classes of real property, in cluding farm, timber, com mercial, residential, and in dustrial property. All phases of the reappraisal program are to be completed in time for the 1965 assessment roll. That means, that during the program, 20.000 parcels of property must be Individually inspected, and all property owners may expect a call from the appraisers during the reappraisal program. Jones emphasized that the program docs not influence the total amount of taxes col lected. This can only be de termined by the budgets of the governmental units (city and county) and special dis tricts (fire, school) within the county which levy a tax on property. The purpose of the reappraisal program is to in sure a fair distribution of this property lax load according to the market value of the property as required by Ore gon law. i Women's Club Asks To Continue Camp j The Talent Federated Wom en's club has notified Jackson county court it wants to carry on with its camping area on Wagner creek leased from the bureau of land manage ment.

Being Realistic On Expectations By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist This is a good time to take a comprehensive look at your child and to evaluate his pro gram. How does he stand in school grades and socially? What are realistic expecta tions for his ability and ma turity? Can you Judge his ability accurately? An I.Q. (intelli gence quotient obtained through various tests) score is a clue but certainly is not an absolute measure. Compare your child's I.Q. with his per formance. If there is a discrep ancy, you should investigate further in order to find out which is true. Some schools will give I.Q. scores to parents while others feel this is unwise.
