Latin America Said Facing Bangers From Red Subversion
California Legislature Told How To
Save $98 Million in Brown's Budget
Sacramento - OIPD - The
legislature was told today
that it could avoid at least
part of Cov. Edmund C.
Brown's new tax progra mif
it:
Refused salary increases
to state employees.
Refused additional funds
for the public schools because
they would be used for teach
ers' salaries.
- The statement came from
legislative analyst A. Alan
Post, the lawmakers' fiscal
adviser. In a 1, 000-page re
view of the governor's S3.2
billion budget, he suggested
cuts totaling $08.1 million.
Actually, only about $65
million of Post's proposed
cuts would affect the same
fiscal area covered by the
governor's tax program. The
program, announced Feb. 4,
would add about $165 mil
lion to state Income next
year. Brown would get the
additional funds mostly by
eliminating installment pay
ment privileges for bank, cor
poration and personal income
taxes.
The governor also proposed
adding $151 million to state
income the following fiscal
year, 1064-65, mostly through
adoption of a withholding tax
on personal income. Post's re
port did not cover this fiscal
period.
Post would achieve his $65
million cut by first eliminat
ing $J0 million that the gov
ernor requested for junior
colleges, elementary and high
schools. His proposals leave
the school budget where it is:
aknut C7QH millinn anniiullv
Inlui some $40 million requir
ed by law to cover enrollment
growth.

Three-Day Holiday
Set by Truckers
Portland A three -day
trucking holiday, from Wash
ington's Birthday, Friday,
Feb. 22 through Sunday, Feb.
24, has been announced by in
dustry spokesmen.
Members of the Oregon
Motor Transport association
and Oregon Draymen's and
Warehousemen's association
have notified shippers that
pickup and delivery service
will be suspended during the
three-day period, except for
shipping emergencies.
The groups represent major
intercity and intracity com
mon carriers throughout Oregon.
Post explained that extra
state aid for the schools
would be used "largely to fi
nance salary increases fur
teachers and school adminis
trators." But, he said, these
salaries already "stand at the
highest level in the country."
Second, Post would refuse
the five per cent raise for
state employees that Brown
is asking. This would abolish
the need for '21 8 million to
be raised by the governor's
tax proposals.

Headway Made To
Curb Influence of
Cuban Activity
Washington - l'PD - A top
State department official said
today Latin America faces
great dangers from Commu
nist subversion but "no
country now seems likely to
succumb in the foreseeable
future."
Assistant Secretary of State
Edwin M. Martin told conges
sional investigators that
"headway is being made to
reduce the influence and cap
abilities of Cuba and the bloc
and in controlling local sub
versive activities of all kinds
in each country."
"Further deterioration of
the prestige and influence of
the present regime in Cuba,
and its eventual replacement
by a government freely
chosen by the Cuban people,
will contribute materially to
reducing the threat but will
not eliminate it," Martin said.
The assessment was given
to a House Foreign Affairs
subcommittee as it opened a
three-week inquiry into the
growth and dangers of Com
munist subversive activities
in the hemisphere, emanating
largely from Cuba.
The hearing followed a
week end of more congres
sional debate over the United
States' policies toward Cuba.
In a statement opening the
House hearings, Chairman Ar
mistead Scldcn (D-Ala.) said
Havana is serving as "the
slagging and jumping - off
point" for Red agents of all
types.
"In the last analysis," Sei
dell said, "subversive aggres
sion rather than outright mili
tary aggression is the com
munists' real hope to extend
their empire in Latin Amer
ica." Scldcn said that in Cuba
"trained, armed Communist
agents are the ultimate 'of
fensive' weapons upon which
Khrushchev relies in his plans
to destroy the inter-American
system."
Other developments includ
ed: Chairman John S. Slen
nis (D-Miss.) of the Senate
preparedness subcommittee
said that if Soviet activities in
Cuba were permitted to con
tinue, U.S. troops might be
fighting Communists in Latin
America.
Chairman J. William Ful
bright (D-Ark.) of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
said persistent political pres
sures could force the admin
istration to take "very un
wise" action on Cuba that
might have dangerous reper
cussions elsewhere in the
world.
Allen W. Dulles, former
director of the Central Intel
ligence Agency said in an ar
ticle made public Sunday that
he saw no chance that the
people of Cuba or any other
Iron Curtain country would
singe successful revolutions
against their Red rulers.
Senate Democratic Whip
Hubert II. Humphrey (Minn.)
said the United States should
make it clear now that a
C'a.stro-typc Communist take
over in Venezuela "will not
be tolerated."
Willy Brandt Chalks Up
Victory in West Berlin
Portland Woman
Accident Victim
By United Press International
Traffic accidents claimed
one life in Oregon during the
week end.
The victim was Mrs. Anna
Bclkoff, about 40, Portland.
She was killed Saturday night
when she was struck by a car
in Portland.
Now York -itlPI'- Jean Tala
midis, a 19-yenr-old hrunette
from River Kdgc, N.J.. has
been chosen "Miss Greek In
dependence." The 124-pound
secretary will reign May 19
ns queen of the Grcrk Inde
pendence Parade up Fifth ave.
She was picked Sunday over
1!) other contestants in the an
nual pageant.
Berlin -WD- West Berlin
Mayor Willy Brandt, reelect
ed in an overwhelming per
sonal victory that sent the
Communists staggering, today
pledged a continued fight
with the Western Allies to
keep the city free.
Brandt's Socialists gained
support in Sunday's munici
pal election at the expense of
Chancellor Konrad Adenau
er's Christian Democrats, re
flecting apparent popular dis
approval of Adenauer's new
tics with French P r e s ident
Charles de Gaulle.
Political observers said the
vote showed a general fear
that Adenauer was drawing
closer to France to the detri
ment of the alliance with the
United States and Britain,
which West Bcrliners consid
er vital to the city's defenses.
Despite snow and sleet 89.9
per cent of eligible voters
went to the polls.
Destructive Rebuff
The Socialist's victory was
so sweeping that only the
city's proportional represen
tation electoral system kept
them from winning all 134
seats in the city assembly.
In a victory statement,
Brandt said the result was "a
destructive rebuff for the wall
party" the Communists
and a "tremendous vote of
confidence" for his anti-Communist
policies.
Brandt promised that he
would work hand-in-hand
with the Western Allies to
keep West Berlin from falling
into the hands of the Commu
nists. West Bcrliners, turning out
in record numbers, showed
cold disdain for the campaign
threats and promises of t h e
Communists. They gave the
Reds only 20,887 votes, or 1.3
per cent of the total, for their
worst showing ever.
