Seattle Republican Disdainful of Tax Cutting Proposals ill m By A. ROBERT SMITH . Mali Traibune Washington Bureau Washington (Special) - Rep. K. William Stinson, th new Republican congressman from Seattle, epito mizes the re cent marriage of youth and conservatism. The 32 -year-old Congress man is the youngest law maker to come to Con- Bmlth cress from the Pacific Northwest since Sen. Henry M. Jackson got elect ed to the House at age 28 during the New Deal. Like Jackson, Stinson is friendly, eager and appealing. But at that point the similarity ends between conservative Stinson and liberal Jackson. Bill Stinson would be hard pressed to find anything new in the program of the Ken nedy administration that he could endorse. While he cam paigned in behalf of tax re duction, Stinson is disdainful of the president's tax cutting proposals. ' "It's no tax cut at all," he declared, "just a tax post ponement." By that he said he meant that so long as the federal budget is unbalanced, there by increasing the national debt, any plan for reducing taxes constitutes a "mortgage which our children will have to pay." RESTAURANT "A good place to eat" Sunday breakfast here is a grand treat for the entire family. Open Daily ... 6 a.m. Social Hour Nightly 5 to 7 510 No. Riverside Stinson accused the Demo crats of making taxes "a po litical thing" and contended that "it is immoral to mort gage the future." He said his mail from home indicates solid resistance to further deficit spending. "I'm all in favor of a real legitimate tax cut, but it should be a responsible one. accompanied by a correspond ing cut in government ex penditures," he explained. Stinson believes Congress should effect economies by "cutting out a lot of fat" in the federal budget. Asked what he considered fat, he said: "We could save billions in the Department of Agricul ture. We should start phasing out these subsidy programs." The congressman represents an urban district embracing south Seattle and part of Bremerton, having defeated Rep. Don Magnuson. He was a boating and sports goods sales representative before his election. He also advocates reducing the amount of foreign aid, notably by terminating assist ance to any country within the Communist bloc, such as Poland or Yugoslavia. He ar gues that while America has given over SI billion in aid to Poland, that country has given S15 billion in aid to North Viet Nam. Stinson contends that the administration's hope of en couraging independence with in the Red bloc is 'an incor rect philosophy" which has not worked. "It's fantastic that we should allow this to go on," he said. "The people are op posed to giving aid to Com munist countries." Favors Probe Having been assigned to the House Government Opera tions Committee, Stinson hopes to get in on some new congressional investigations of various activities. He would especially favor a probe of the State Department's policy making operations from Cuba to Katanga. Speaking of American sup port of the United Nations ef fort to prevent a divided Congo, by suppressing the split-off of Katanga, Stinson said: Our whole policy is GREETS SCOUTS Medford Mayor James Dunlevy greeted two Boy Scouts from Troop 105 in his office in city hall earlier this week in connection with his proclamation of Feb. 7 to 13 as Scout Week in Medford. Dunlevy also designated Feb. 10 as Scout Sunday in Medford. Visiting Dunlevy were Dale Dur kee, 14, of 625 J sts., a Life scout, (left) and Dennis Mclum, 15, of 832 Marshall ave., a Star scout. Both are students at McLoughlin Junior High school. Dunlevy eyed the boys' merit badges and confessed that when he was a Boy Scout in Akron, Ohio, during his youth, he had only risen to the rank of second class scout. $57,500 in Building Permits Issued Gold Hill - Building per mits were issued for new home construction cost valued at $57,500 in the city of Gold Hill during 1962. Other per mits were issued for additions and remodeling construction costs valued at $8,632. Permits other than the new homes were issued for an ad dition to a church, addition to a residence, a new woodshed, several garages, two resi dence remodeling, and one business remodeling. Two permits were issued for wrecking of old homes. immoral and illegal. We should have recognized the free, anti-Communist, Chris tian government of Moise Tshombe." Looking ahead to 1064, Con gressman Stinson thinks the GOP must nominate for presi dent "an aggressive, articu late candidate who favors a strong, free nation, a man who contrasts with Kennedy." He declined to suggest his preference. He believes there is a re surgence of strength in the Republican Party. The GOP needs better salesmen, he said. "It should not be a me-too party," he contended. Obviously, Bill Stlrson doesn't plan to be a me-too congressman. SECTION B Medford PAGES 1 to 8 RIBUNE MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8. 1963 Residents Asked To Donate 2,670 Pints Of Blood in Year A total of 2,670 pints of blood must be donated by Jackson county residents dur ing the new year, according to Mrs. J. W. Burba, Red Cross blood program chair man. The new quota will mean that 445 pints must be donat ed during each of the six visits of the Bloodmobile to Jackson county. The goal for next week's visit will be 350 pints for Medford and 145 pints in Central Point. Mrs. Burba stressed the ur gent need for blood at this time. Reserves in the Pacific Northwest Red Cross Blood Center in Portland have been alarmingly low during the past three months, necessitat ing the use of walk-in donors in many instances. Many physicians found it necessary to defer elective surgical procedures for their patients, where blood might be necessary, until such time as an emergency stockpile could be accumulated, Mrs. Burba noted. 40 Per Cent of Needed She also pointed out that although blood was donated by voluntary donors to the Red Cross at an average rate of five pints per minute last year, this accounts for only about 40 per cent of the blood needed in the United States annually. The Red Cross Bloodmobile will be at the Red Cross build ing, 60 Hawthorne ave., Med ford, Monday, Feb. 11, from 2 to 6 p.m. and Tuesday, Feb. 12, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Central Point will be the other stop in the county this month, so regular donors from Ashland should arrange to do nate during one of the visits in Medford. The Bloodmobile Art Valuable When j Siskiyou Mills Bids High for Timber Combined With Academic Program By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist Art, as a part of the school program, is usually considered cultural subject. It even has been criticized as an unneces sary extra. Actually it is, and should be, a part of the total educational program. Art is most interesting and valuable when it combines its cultural purposes with the ac ademic program. This ap proach helps individuals to understand and appreciate art as a part of their daily activi ties. Art is a visual language that can be read and under stood by children. The school program provides students with the opportunity to think and work creatively at their own level using a variety of materials. A good art program is much more than a check list of things to do throughout the year. It is based on the daily classroom situation. It brings to the children experiences of emotion and intellectual qual ity. These experiences encour age creative work. Let's take a look at a typi cal lower grade lesson. The students use cloth scraps, yarn, assorted papers, paste, and scissors to develop a picture of winter games. This project grew out of a study of weath er. The class was studying clouds, temperature, and the formation of snow. The snow was used to develop interest will be at the Jewett school in Central Point Wednesday, Feb. 13, from 3 to 7 p.m. Appointments may be made for the drawing next week by telephoning 773-3813. Persons between 18 and 59 years old are eligible to donate, but those between 18 and 21 years old must have a written con sent from their parents or guardian. in the picture which was call ed "warm clothes for winter snows." A unit of this nature is an excellent example of a total program. The basic subject involved was science. Arith metic was involved with the temperature. Language arts and reading were involved in research. The art project was used to give meaning to what had been learned. The stu dents, in using the art mate rials, were developing motor skills (cutting, color sense, etc.) This inclusion of many sub jects is called correlation. This type of program leads to a real appreciation of art. The children begin to realize that through art they can ex press themselves. They begin to recognize that art can bring feeling and interest to their regular activities. Understand Aims An understanding of the aims and methods of the school art curriculum is im portant to you as parents. Your youngster's activities at home can lead smoothly into the school's program. Supply your child with a variety of materials so that he can learn to use them. Naturally, he must follow some rules with such items as paint and clay. Do not make these rules so strict that he will hesitate to use the materials. You prob ably can arrange a spot where he will not do harm if he is messy. Perhaps a smock or old clothes and a large sheet of paper on the floor will an swer your problem. Art has two purposes. In school it supplements other areas of the program. Prob ably its greatest value is in the pleasure it creates. As adults with Increasing lcasure time, they can enrich their lives with the beauty and cre ativity which can only be cx pressed through art.
