Elderly People Tell Troubles in Relocating Portland -01PH- Elderly peo ple with no place to so told a Senate subcommittee Mon day the troubles they face when they are forced from their homes to make way for urban renewal and highway projects. And a senator and a mayor rebuked the Oregon Highway Department for failing to do all it can to make relocation easier for the displaced. Forced relocation of the elderly was the subject of a day-long hearing by a sub committee of the Special Sen ate Committee on Aging. In between hearing sessions, the committee, headed by Sen. Harrison A. Williams (D N.J.), visited Portland neigh borhoods where older people are being moved from their homes. Hotel VUiled One of the tours took the committee to the Carlton Ho tel where 140 elderly men and women live on state al lowances of $101 per month. The hotel will be razed to make room for the Foothills Freeway. Manager Palma Whitney told the committee lease prices are so high she has been unable to find another hotel where she can operate her low-rate boarding plan for her tenants. "These people will have no place to go," she said. "It would be a shame to move these people back into sub standard housing when the hotel is razed." Lacks Money Older people also spoke at the hearing sessions. One 74-ycar-old woman said she has supported herself by cooking Jewish foods for clients in her neighborhood. She said moving from the neighbor hood will end the work. Regional Edition Page 2A MedfordWTribune MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1962 Another, who moved once before for urban renewal, said she lacks the money to move again to make way for the freeway. Both Sen. Williams and Portland Mayor Terry Schrunk were critical of the Oregon Highway Department. Schrunk called its relocation services minimal. Williams said the depart ment was failing to pay mov ing expenses, as already al lowed under existing law. He suggested legislation to make payment of moving allow ances mandatory. He said the department also should pro vide a better relocation serv ice - one that would seek to solve individual problems of the elderly as well as provide lists of available real estate.

Cuplin today bowed to business protests and an nounced some "liberalizing" changes in the government's new proposals for preventing expense account tax abuses. The new rules, drafted un der the 1UH2 tax law, take effect Jan. 1. Caplin revealed the modifications in opening two-ciay public hearing on the rules. As a result of objections, Caplin said, the rules will re quire less detail on expenses claimed as deductions on tax returns. For example, a sales man will not have to list separately such miscellaneous outlays as taxi fares, local telephone calls, gasoline for his car and parking fees. oreign Bnefs HOYAL HOUSEWIVES GO GIFT SHOPPING London-itl'U-Two Royal housewives went on separate shopping sprees in London Monday. Queen ElizabeiU II did her annual Christmas shopping for the family in the toy, linen and book departments ol a leading store while Princess Muna, English-born wife of Jordan's King Hessein, visited a sowing center called the "Needlewoman Shop". She bought $2.50 worth of yarn and a needle-case inscribed, "A stitch in time saves nine." NEW AGRICULTURE MINISTER NAMED IN PERU Lime, Peru-itl'li-Air Force Col.

FRANCO APPEARS UNDISTURBED BY BOMBINGS Madrid - ll'I'li - Spain's durable GeneraUssimo Francisco Franco turned 70 today apparently unmoved by a new series of bombings which the press has blamed on Communists. The bombings started Sunday when an explosion rocked the military governor's headquarters in San Sebastian. Mon day two moro bombs blasted government buildings in Val encia and a bomb was exploded at the administrative court building in Madrid. Full-scale Rally Noted at Opening Of Stock Market Similarly, a person travel ling on business will not have to name the restaurants where he eats provided the cost of his meals docs not include en tertainment of others. The service also reversed its original proposal that each tip be listed as a separate out lay. Caplin said a tip could be included as part of the basic expense, such as the cost of a meal. Also modified were rules requiring the taxpayer to give the time of business meals and a detailed breakdown of the use of facilities such as clubs. Caplin acknowledged that a proposed rule requiring item ized receipts "for expendi tures of SI0 or more may raise special problems for some taxpayers. We are giv ing this matter serious study." Internal Revenue sources said strong consideration was being given to raising the $10 requirement, but they gave no specific new figure. Spokesmen for the profes sions, unions and a variety of industries complained at the hearing that the new rules would saddle business with unreasonable bookkeeping chores, thereby impairing pro ductive efforts, sales, produc tion, payrolls and profits. Republicans Loading Up For Intraparty Struggle Chicago - IUPD - Republican leaders, wasting no time in mapping strategy for the 19H4 election campaign, are load ing their weapons for what may be the most bitter intra party power struggle since 1952 when GOP members were forced to choose sides between Dwight D. Eisenhow er and Robert Taft. From a Republican view, last month's election was widely interpreted as a clear cut victory for the liberal wing of the party with candi dates like Nelson A. Rocke feller, George Romney and William Scranton emerging in control of key governorships. Tabbed as Front Runner Rockefeller, in fact, has been tabbed by many as the front runner for the 1964 GOP presidential nomination. But if there were any no tions that Republican con servatives were ready to ac cept Rockefeller as the man to challenge President Ken nedy, they probably were dis pelled by events which took place here this past week end. A determined group of con servative Republicans from all parts of the country, but with a notably strong concentration from the South, gathered at a motel here Sunday to draft plans for a "Goldwater for president" drive. The strategy session, attend ed by about 40 persons, was held in secrecy. Word of it leaked out Monday. Conservative Voice The general purpose of the meeting was to prepare and organize a strong conservative voice in the party that would speak with power at the 1964 Republican National conven tion. Specifically discussed were possible ways of blocking Rockefeller's bid for the nomi nation and gaining the candi dacy for Sen. Barry Gold water (R-Ariz.). If Goldwater and the New York governor actively oppose each other for the nomination, it would touch off the most direct clash between liberals and conservatives in the Re publican party since the 19.") 2 preconvention battle between Eisenhower and late Ohio Sen. Taft, which cut deep wounds into the party that were slow to heal. Goldwater, reached Monday night at his home in Phoenix, said he knew nothing of the Chicago meeting. "I just got back from Grand Canyon," he told newsmen. "I don't know who they are or what it is." He declined any further comment. Republican National Com mittee Chairman William E. Miller also refused to com ment. But Charles Barr, a Cook County, III., Republican lead er who attended the closed door session, called it "A meeting where you let your hair down and talked candid ly about the candidates and the issues that might be af fecting the 1964 race.' Barr said five possible presi dential candidates were dis cussed and that it "was gen erally conrluded the strongest candidate if he were available would be Goldwater."
