' BRITISH MINISTER TO YEMEN RECALLED London - (UPI) - Christopher Gandy, British minister to Yemen, has been recalled to London lor oificial consultations, according to informed sources here. Increased Business Activity Expected New York -4UPD- The busl ness community looked for ward today to higher stock prices and increased Business activity under the stimulus of President Kennedy's tax cut proposals. Wall Street analysts gener ally agreed that the proposed $10 billion tax reduction would lure traders into the market, Some, however, said the President's statement on taxes had been anticipated, thus blunting any bullish tend encies. They said the market already has been rising in ex pectations of Kennedy's call for Jower taxes, i The National Association of Manufacturers, while endors ing the call for a tax cut, was less enthusiastic about what it described as Kennedy's overorientation "toward a quick pickup in economic ac tivity." The NAM said that any dis agreement in tax law details "should be resolved on the side of long-term strength of the economy, growth and lobs, and not on the side of quick stimulation of economic ac-tivity." Henry Gellcrman of Bache it Co. said the proposed cuts. if legislated, probably would create the two million jobs estimated by Kennedy. He said the President's mes sage "contains much good news for the investment com munity," and is "a welcome start on a much needed thorough revision of the tax law. Martin Gilbert of Van Al styne, Noel & Co. disagreed with those who thought that anticipation of the President s proposals might have taken the edge off increased trading prospects. "I think the President's pro posals will have a definitely bullish effect on the market," he said. . Self-Help Program Is Stressed by IRS Agent Portland-The Internal Rev- enue Service during the 1983 Income tax filing season will again stress self-help as Us basic theme of taxpayers as sistance, A. G. Erlckson, di rector of Internal Revenue for Oregon, has announced. 'The self-help program has been In effect for a number of years," Erlckson said, "and we believe that more and more taxpayers are becom ing familiar with the require ments for the proper prepara tion of their Federal income tax returns. Essentially, self help means that taxpayers complete as much of their re turns as possible before ask ing help from us. Most tax payers can do the whole Job if they will carefully read the form Itself and its accom panying instruction booklet. "We shall again sired our telephone r.ssisiance program, which will enable taxpayers with a problem or two to call us for a quick answer design ed to enable them to complete the preparation of their re turns. Office assistance will be available where required but will naturally entail con siderably more of the tax payer's time. "The most important thing for the taxpayer In prepar ing a return or in seeking tele phone or office assistance is to have all of his 1082 finan cial records at hand and to have all the necessary facts in mind, . Erlckson reminds taxpay ers "that It will be much easier to prepare a return or to obtain any help needed now than during the late stages of the season when telephone lines are jammed and offices are crowded." Decision on Pears Expected This Week Whether or not the offer of local winter pears for the federal school lunch program is acceptable by the depart ment of agriculture will be learned Thursday morning, a local pear shipper said. Local pear shippers have offered for sale to the federal institution's program 265 car loads of Cornice, D'Anjou, Winter Nellis and Bosc pears through the Rogue Valley Marketing association.

Mark Hatfield's inau gural address ranged' today from "very profound" to "flowery." . - Senate President Ben Musa (D-The Pallcs) called- the speech profound and sincere and said "it apprises - us of the problems." Musa added, however, he was "still disenchanted" with the gross income tax which he (Hatfield) proposes." Musa promised the Hatfield pro gram would gcv "a careful and thorough going over." House Speaker Clarence Barton (D-Coqullle) called the speech comprehensive, but de clined to comment in detail without studying it further. Barton said, however, un like Musa, he agrees with Hat field on the key tax issue, Barton said he stands with Hatfield in support of a net receipts tax, which his own tax committee advocated in 1981. Paarsom 'Fqual Tima' Sen. Walter Pearson (D- Portland) labeled the Hatfield address "rather long and flowery" and added, "I would need equal time to reply." Rep. Richard Eymann (D Marcola) said the Hatfield pro gram was "in general . . . lib eral on issues. Eymann, who -will head the key House Tax Committee, however accused Hatfield of making "a $405 million budg et talk and a $500 million inaugural talk." Most legislators agreed the message took in the major problems facing the session, but there was considerable disagreement over specific so lutions proposed by Hatfield. A suggestion by the gover nor to merge the boards of education and higher educa tion won favorable comment from several lawmakers. Rep. Stafford Hansel! (R- Hormlston) said it "makes real sense." Rep. Joe Rogers (R-Indc- pcndcncc) said he liked the proposal, and Musa called it "a good Idea." Walsh Hiti Idea But William Walsh, presi dent of the Board of Higher Education, however, promptly Issued a statement against combining the two boards. "The responsibilities of the two boards are very different and there is not much over lapping of Interests," he snid. He added a new coordinating board has improved coopera tion between the two boards. The warmest praise for the address as a whole came from members of the governor's own Republican party. House Minority Leader F. F. Montgomery (R-Eugene) said the message reflected "recommendations of a sound administrator who shows keen concern for the needs of our state." 'His call for harmonious relations should be heeded," Montgomery added. Senate minority lender An thony Yturrl (R-Ontario) said Hatfield "has chartered a course of action which is well considered and In keeping with the progress of our state. We could save time and mon ey by enacting much of his program promptly." Bolvin Opinion In addition to Musa and Barton, other Democrats also had good words for Hatfield's overall approach. Sen. Harry Boivin (D-Klamath Falls) Son ate president in lHtil, said there was "a lot In it I liked." Rep. William Holmstrom (D Gearhart) called It "an ex cellent presentation . . , that gives the legislature a real goal to shoot for." He called Hatfield contradictory, how ever. In opposing more high way bonding. Seven Students Make Honor Roll Two of the seven students from Medtord who made the honor roll at the University of Oregon for its fall term, received all A's.

Regional Edition Medford, Page 2A Tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 15.1963 Walsh Opposed To Combining Oregon Education Boards Salem -HOT- William Walsh, the president of the state board- of higher education, took strong exception today to Gov. Mark Hatfield's plan to combine the boards of higher and lower education. Shortly after the governor finished his Inaugural address Walsh released the following statement: "If the work of the two boards should be combined, I don't see how it could be pos sible to appoint board mem bers and expect them to do a responsible job. Mora Compltx "The members of the state board of higher education devote at least 30 full days a year to the work of the board. The officers devote a good deal more than that. Com bining the boards would make the job even more complex and demanding. A member would need to neglect cither the work of the board or that of his full time outside activi ties or occupation. "Actually, the responsibili ties of the two boards are very different and there is not much overlapping of interests. The state board of higher edu cation is essentially a policy determining body, directly charged with fiscal and cur ricular management of the Expenses Should Be Substantiated Portland-Taxpayers should not try to approximate their travel and entertainment ex penses without any substan tiation for the taxable year 1962, the last year that the Cohan rule will remain in force under the 1962 Revenue Acv. A. G. Erickson, director of Internal Revenue for Oregon, said the Internal Revenue Service will employ the same standards to such expenses for the 1962 taxable year as in the past. He said these standards re quire the taxpayer must prove that some expense actually was incurred; that the ex pense claimed is so directly related to the business of the taxpayer that it qualifies as an ordinary and necessary business expense; and, that a basis for approximation has been constructed from avail able evidence both as to the amount and the business purpose of the expenditure claimed. The Cohan rule has been nullified by tho 1962 Revenue Act effective Jan. 1, ending the privilege of taxpayers to approximate travel and en tertainment expenses when they did not maintain ade quate records in support of the deductions. Federal Funds for Education Allowed Salem - lliri) - The Suite Emergency Board today au thorized the use of $267,000 in federal funds "for the Im provement of the instruction al program" of lower educa tion. Two educational requests were referred by the board to the Ways and Means com mittee for action at the sug gestion of Rep. Clarence Bar ton (D-Coquillc). One was $1,937,500 for land acquisition for Portland State college, the oilier S8!l, 000 for Oregon Technical In stitute land acquisition. several institutions. The state board of education, on the other hand, has supervisory responsibilities for the com munity colleges and the pub lic schools. Both the commu nity colleges and the schools report to their own boards, composed of local citizens, and it is these local boards which determine budget, cur ricular and administrative policies. Coordinating Council ' "The areas in which the interests of the two boards do coincide are now being stud ied by a coordinating council made up of representatives of both bodies, and staff commit tees are at work. The coordi nating board is fairly new, and it seems to be working very effectively. "In my judgment, before such a major change is made, a thorough and extensive study should be made to be certain the proposal Is in the best interests of the state. It is my impression that most other states have moved, or are moving, in the opposite direction." Ulbricht Accuses Red Chinese At East German Party Congress Berlin - WPD - East German Communist boss Walter Ul bricht today accused Red China of aiming at war. He charged that the Communist Chinese attacked India with out consulting other Commu nist nations. Ulbricht delivered the charge in the early part of a five and one-half hour speech to the opening session of the East German Communist par ty's sixth congress. - Soviet Premier N 1 k i t a Khrushchev, the No. 1 guest, beamed approvingly. Red Chines Impassive All the delegates from East Germany and visitors from other Soviet bloc countries applauded enthusiastic ally but Red China's delegate, Wu Hsiun-chuan sat impassively. In fact, the Chinese delega tion remained almost motion less while delegates all around them interrupted eight times with applause for Ulbricht's onslaught against Albania and Red China. Without using Red China's name Ulbricht said the quar rel between Moscow and Pe king is not merely an internal one among Communists but one that affects world peace. "The arguments between the Soviet Union and the dis sidents are about questions of peace or war," he declared. Criticizes Indian Attack He referred repeatedly to the Albanians "and those who stand behind them" - mean ing Red China.

Washington IUPII United Air Lines was to ask the Civil Aeronautics board today to approve a one-class service designed to hit a happy me dium between coach and first class travel. BLAMES RIOTS ON U.S. Damascus, Syria -IUPII- Syri an Agrarian Reform Minister Amin Nafouri charged Mon day night that the United States had fomented the riots In this country over the week end. Ulbricht portrayed this as nary contacts last fall aimed; contrary to the policy of peaceful coexistence agreed upon by Communist bloc na tions. Ulbricht, referring .to the Red Chinese and Albanians as "dogmatists" and "dissi dents," charged they are "fundamentally against the policy of peaceful coexist ence." "They are oriented toward war," he declared. Despite this, Ulbricht said, the East German Communist press had deliberately refrain ed from commenting on the Chinese-Indian border dispute so as not to aggravate it. "We maintain good rela tions with India. We want to keep them in the future, too. This frontier conflict is high ly superfluous and is abhor rent to the socialise world system." Here again he appealed for compromise between the two states. The goateed East German leader thus touched at the be ginning of the conference a controversy that has had the Communist world choosing sides. It was obvious Ulbricht was on the Kremlin's side, despite his past reputation for being a tough-minded Stalin ist. Sought Direct Talks He declared that West and East Germany began prelimi- at direct political talks, but said they were broken off in the Cuban crisis. , -He said East Germany also had approached West Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt about the Communist Berlin wall, but did not say what the answer was. Ulbricht mentwned these' things to support the theme that European problems can be settled by compromise as' was the Cuban crisis between" President Kennedy and Pre mier Khrushchev. "War has become unrealls; tic in the settlement of any disputes," Ulbricht declared. "The prevention of nuclear warfare has become a matter of life and death for all hu manity. Therefore, d 1 s putes must be settled through negotiation."
