On Camp License
Portland -!UPI- Labor Com
missioner Norman O. Nilsen
will announce today or Fri

tor will lose his license on
grounds of "general irrespon
sibility" in running two mi
grant labor camps.
The hearing on proposed re
vocation of the labor contract
ing license of James Gray was
held before Nilsen here Wed
nesday. A second charge
against Gray, his alleged fail
ure to disclose financial as
sistance, was dropped.
Gray's license was suspend
ed earlier this month after
two camps near Hillsboro
were raided by state liquor
agents, labor inspectors, and
county health officers. Two
other men were arrested and
subsequently pleaded guilty
to illegal liquor sales.
Labor inspector Al Heffner
testified Wednesday condi
tions at the two camps were
"extremely poor."

Its potential in determining
whether the area would bene
fit from public power.

H. Marshall informed Estes'
lawyer of this th.ee days be
fore the Kennedy administra
tion took office.
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.

Josephine County
Reappraisal Plan
Is Moving Ahead
Grants Pass - The county
reappraisal program, a joint
project between Josephine
county and the state tax com
mission, began picking up
momentum with the arrival
of Tax Commission Ap
praisers Stewart Woods and
Ruel Robinson.
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.

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. It the

Above Average Ability
You should recognize that
a child with an I.Q. of 115 to
125 probably has above aver
age ability and should be
able to perform school work
with a minimum of difficulty.
A child with an I.Q. of 135

and should be able to master
more difficult concepts (ad
