Newspaper Page Textai Donaitoiy Board, : Boom Ciargos :-;PondereJ Russian Premier Inspects Front Line Troops in Communist East Germany Berlin IUPI) - Soviet Pre. mier Niklta Khrushchev left East Berlin today to inspect "cold war" Russian front line troops stationed In wmmn nist East Germany. In a dispatch from Wucns- dorf. East Germany, tne oi- ficial Soviet Tass newt agency said Khrushchev was war corned there by Russian gar rison troops and tneir tami- linn Khrushchev made his trip after attending the sixth East German Communist party congress In East Berlin that appeared to have accompnsn ed little in -the way of gains for the Communist world. Tass said the Soviet officers and men at Wuernsdorf as sured Khrushchev that Rus sian troops in East Germany "are prepared to fulfill their patriotic duty at any mo ment." Stormy Ovation Tass added that Khru shchev received a stormy ova tion from the troops In Wuernsdorf and wished them everv success In their work The Soviet premier smiled his way through the wind up of East Germany's Communist party congress Monday but took no direct part in the pro ceedings. He seemed content to let East German Communist lead er Walter Ulbricht be the star Open House Set At Control Tower The public has been invited to visit the control tower at the Medford Municipal air port Sunday, Jan. 27, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Controllers and m a I n t fi nance technicians will guide visitors through the tower and equipment room and ex plain the operations. The open house Is in observ ance, during January, of the 80th anniversary of the Civil Service act of 18B3, the foun dation of the merit system that now covers more than 2 mil lion employees, over 45,000 of whom are employed by the Federal Aviation Agency, The President has issued a proclamation providing for a nationwide observance of the anniversary, and calling on the public, heads of federal agencies, and leaders of indus try, labor, and other public spirited groups to participate in appropriate cere monies throughout the country. : Locally, there are 28 FFA employees engaged In the ' maintenance and operation of electronic aids to air naviga tion and communications fa cilities and In providing traf fic control and flight assis tance services to aircraft. Children visiting the tower should be accompanied by an adult. of the show. At the end, after Ulbricht and his entire slate had been reelected as expect ed, Khrushchev gave him a bear hug and kisses on both cheeks. Except to show the world that he still supported Ul bricht, Khrushchev's visit seemed to have no great pur pose. The ideological joust wilh the delegation from Red China was completely one sided. The delegates cheered Khrushchev and Ulbricht at proper intervals. They booed and stamped their feet at Wu Hsiu-chuan from Peking. Khrushchev was so confi dent he did not even bother to attend the session at which Wu spoke. So far as could be determined not a single dele gation took Red China's side. The six-day congress wont completely according to the book. The long speeches con tained the usual rocket rat tling, anti-Western statements and boasts of eventual Com munist domination of the world Even so, they were mild In comparison to some Com. nuinist speeches of past years and Khrushchev went out of his way to point out the destructive power in Western hands, The visit to East Germany did give Khrushchev a chance to see a few factories and per haps determine for himself why Ulbricht's regime has been having economic diffi culties. Banks Propose Compromise in Tax Feud With State of Oregon Salem -flOT- National banks offered to compromise with the state of Oregon Monday in a tax feud Involving about $1 million a year. R. R. Bullivant, an attorney speaking for the national banks, told the Senate Tax Committee the banks would accept a seven per cent cor porate excise tax retroactive to 1957. That is two per cent less than the state is trying to col lect, but one per cent more than the banks have hereto fore indicated they arc will ing to pay. The dispute is cur rently before the courts. The controversy involves the six per cent corporate tax levied against other corpora tions. The banks say under a federal law they cannot be taxed at a higher rate The state says, however, the other corporations pay other taxes, such as the per sonal property tax, not levied against banks. Bullivant said the national banks would be willing to set tle for the seven per cent rate, letting the one per cent differential balance personal property taxes paid by other corporations. Some members of the com- mittec, however, appeared cool to the proposal. A bill al ready has been Introduced in the House aimed at helping Green Named Head Of Program Phase Terry D. Green, local busi ness man, has accepted the position of chairman of the Community Phase of the New Sacred Heart Hospital Devel opment program. Green announced that he has formed an executive board to assist him, made up of Mike Alcsko, Carl Bis- mark, Richard Frey, and Ken Wright. Green also revealed that the goal of his committee is to raise $100,000 to be added to the funds already raised by the other committees. Persons wishing to assist Green are asked to contact him at 773-6611. the state maintain the per cent rate. ,. Sen. Walter Pearson (D Portland) suggested waiting to see how the courts rule on the nine per cent rate "in. stead of passing a law now forgiving it before it's de cided." He said he thinks if the slate loses the legislature could then pass a retroactive law to remedy the situation.

The plan was advanced by Dr. Roy Lieuallen, chancellor of the State System of Higher Education. He said the addi tional money was needed to meet increased food and main tenance costs. Some of the money also would be used in the purchase of additional land and con struction of new dormitories, Lieuallen said. The proposal brought on a protest march and demonstra tion by 50 Oregon State Uni versity students at Corvallis last Thursday. The increase would be about $40 a year per student. It would raise the average charges for a student in a dormitory to $720 a year. . . A number of recommenda tions by its committees also came up for action. The building committee Monday decided to allow Port land State College to expand from its present nine -block area in downtown Portland to 22 blocks. It approved a plan under which the college would buy key lots in nine blocks west of the school to prevent major apartment or business developments which would keep the campus from spreading as the college ex panded. "This Is not a good policy for any public board to adopt, but in this case it seems the only thing to do," Board Chairman William Walsh said. Would Devaluate He said it could cause pron- erty owners to allow their property to devaluate, know ing it eventually will be taken over by the school. The cur rent appraisal price of the key lots is $184,000. according to W. T. Lemman, PSO's di rector of business affairs. The board's finance com mittee approved the return of $J51,000 from the higher edu cation budget to the state. The return was ordered by the Stale Department of Finance and Administration in line with state policy of cutting appropriations to meet reduc tion in state income.

Central o Medford, Oregon fl Clemson College To Admit Negro Student Monday Clemson, S.C.-WPB-Officials prepared today to admit a 20- year-old Negro architecture student to Clemson Collene next Monday. Harvey Gantt would be the first Negro to attend a white public school in South Caro lina, the only state that never has broken its rigid school segregation pattern. South Carolina officials Monday lost two last-ditch at tempts to slave off Gantt's admission. Chief Justice Earl Warren refused to issue a stay delay ing enforcement of a ruling last week by the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals di recting Clemson to admit Gantt In the new semester beginning Jan. 28. Right To Appeal Less than three hours ear lier, the appeals court refused a similar pica. Clemson still has a right to appeal from the circuit court's decision, but Gantt's admission could not be delayed while attorneys drew up the appeal. "I feci free to start making plans to enter Clemson next Monday," Gantt said shortly after Warren's ruling. State officials have said privately they feel there will be no disturbance of the type that marred the enrollment of Negro James Meredith at the University of Mississippi. In Washington, Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy told a church group "the responsible lead ers of South Carolina have made it clear that they're not going to put up with any viol ence or disorder."
