came in the midst of an out
spoken tend between Sen.

Oregon money because he con
sidered Morse an "inKl'atc."
The supplemental Senate

ect .
Morse told the Senate com
mon justice and fair treatment
calls for these additions." He

FRANCE TIGHTENS GRIP ON MONACO
Paris-UM-The government of Franc (pop. 46 million)
plans to seal off neighboring Monaco (pop. 30,000) with
customs barriers at midnight icnight, authoritative reports

The French plan for a crackdown on the tiny domain
of Prince Rainier II and Princess Grace was retried shortly
after the two countries 'broke off negotiations in tt.?ir long
tax dispute. France and Monaco have been trying for mor.!hi
to negotiate a new treaty that France insists is needed to
halt the flight of French companies to the tax-free gambling
haven.

t. Ashland ReSOrt
Could Be Operating
In 1964, Wiese Says
The proposed Mt. Ashland
ski area could be in operation
by fall of 1!)64, according to
Ralph Wiese, recreation de
velopment officer for the
RoRue River National for-st.
Approximately 75 persons
interested In the development
of the ski area met in the
Mark Antony hotel in Ash
land last night to hear the
development plans discussed
and hear comparisons with
such ski areas as Bachelor
Butte, near Bend, and Ml.
Hood.
William Patton, Ash land
Chamber of Commerce presi
dent and... chairman of last
night's meeting, said a steer
ing committee is working out
an overall plan of action for
development of the ski resort.
A second general meeting will
be called in the near future
$8.5 Million To Be
Collected in County
Jackson county's 1962-63
tax roll shows a total of S8.
5'26.325.94 to be collected this
year by the county sheriff's
oflice. This is an increase of
more than 81149,000 over last
year's total.
The county assessor's office
sent the tax roll to the sher
iff's office today, according to
Assessor Thad Hatten. The
amount is based on a total as
sessed valuation of S103.44B.
929, an increase of S4.957.2U
over last year.
More than 25.000 tax state
ments will be mailed by the
department early next week.
Persons paying their tax in
full prior to Nov. 15 will
again receive a 3 per cent dis
count. flatten stressed that there
will not be a levy for county
expenses. The increases in lax
are all due to Increases in
the budget requirements of
schools, cities, and special dis
tricts. The percentages of tax for
the various services this year
as 79.8 per cent to schools,
18 3 per cent cities. 1.3 per
cent rural fire protection dis
tricts, .4 per cent water dis
tricts and .2 per cent for sani
tary districts.
AROUND THI OLOII
i to discuss the committee's
findings, he said.
I Bids on the first phase of
the area development have to
i be in by the end of April,
j Patton noted. The self-formed
committee of interested citi-
j zens will assist or help inter
ested bidders, but is bound to
t see that some bid is submitted.
i he added.
Earlier, a group of ititerost-
! ed Ashland citizens mainly
from the Ashland Economic
Develop ment commission,
pledged to the county court
that the required money tor
development of the ski resort,
would be raised.
Wiese said the conccs-iion
area lease probably would be-
on a 20-year term with a re
newal clause. The concession
aire would pay the forest serv
ice a certain percentage of the
gross receipts. Wiese said this
should be "very low."
Wiese agreed with Dr. E'mo
Stevenson, president of South
ern Oregon college, that the
area also could be used lor
spring and summer recrealion.
Wiese said revenue from
spring and summer activitifs
would enable the concession
aire to have the ski area equip
ment- ready when the firs
' snow fell.
I He said the proposed area
! would compare favorably with
other ski resorts. It will have
i powder type snow, a tyDe
; "which you never see at Mt.
Hood." Wiese said. Because
i of the geological formation at
Mt. Ashland it will be possible
; to ski on a foot of snow. Ski
able snow will last from the
! fall through April, he added,
in eight out of every 10 years.
Wiese said the area na a
' good water supply, but there
is a problem on where to drain
sewage. He urged early plan
ning and hiring of a consult
I ing engineer to supervise con
struction. First year facilities requir
j cd would be a two-story lodge.
' first aid facilities, food serv
I ice. warming service and pub-
lie rostrooms. O and C funds
I are now committed to the lirsl
! phase of entrance road con
struction from Siskiyou sum
mil. Wiese said. This includes
j clearing, grading, grHvellin,-;
and rocking.
