LEAVES HOSPITAL-Evangelist Billy Graham thanks Sister Maureen upon leaving St. Francis hospital m Honolulu, Hawaii, Tuesday.

The doctors ordered him to take at least 10 days rest and Graham has said he will postpone his planned Asian Crusade and return to the mainland to rest. (UPI) Mindszenfy May Leave Asylum Vatican City (UPI) Reports circulated here today that Josef Cardinal Mindszenty, primate of Hungary, may soon leave the U.S. legation in Budapest, where he fled lor asylum in 1956. A spokesman for the Aus trian Embassy to the Holy See said that Franziskus Cardinal Koenig, archbishop of Vienna, will be going to Budapest and "he is likely to meet Cardinal Mindszenty." The statement on Cardinal Koenig's trip followed news paper speculation that the archbishop was going to Hungary in an effort to per suade the primate to leave the nation. Mindszenty has been in the legation since Russian tanks crushed the abortive Hun garian revolt. According to Vatican sources in the past, the 71-year-old Hungarian primate has not wanted nor asked to leave his country - the only circumstances under which the Communist government would permit him to leave the U.S. legation. But his presence there has been embarrassing to the United States whose normal policy is to refuse political asylum in embassies or lega tions. For some time the Vatican also took the stand that it did not want Mindszenty to leave Hungary. According to Vatican sources, the Vatican now would be willing to have Mindszenty released and out of the country - although the Holy See prefers that he be released and remain in the nation whose Catholic church he heads. Wafer Alain Accident Gets Bills Paid Fast Miami Springs, Fla. -HIPII-More than SO persons rushed to City Hall to pay delin quent water bills Thursday when a road grader accident ally cut through a water main and knocked out service to homes. "They came dashing in as fast as they could, the money in their hands," Mrs. Florence Jones, a water department cashier said. "It was a scream." !9J VOUtWA&IN or AMtaiCA. IMC Nobody's perfect. Many Volkswagens have driven 60,000 miles on the original pistons and cylinders. Common tire wear is 40,000 miles. But it's a mistake to regard the Volkswagen as indestructible, like any good mochine, it does not thrive best on neglect. This is why we give you a book on preventive maintenance covering eoch 30,000 miles your VW drives. In the book (or new VWs, for instance, per forated slips tell exactly what service should be performed at 300 miles (no lobor chorgel. At 3,000 miles (no lobor chargel. And at every 3,000 miles alter that. This should keep your car in crock running order. Good service is so important, the Volkswagen people will not sell the VWs where they cannot be handled by us, their own factory-trained mechanics. You ore as welcome ot our VW service de portment as the day you bought the car. Parts ore economical. Quickly installed. There isn't a Volkswogen in the world we can't net you ports for. V.ost ore interchangeable from year 10 year. (We can put a 1963 fender on your 52 model with just ten bolls. It fit perfectly.) Volkswagen service is as good os the car. Ask anybody. MORSE MOTORS 6th snd Ivy Medford Phone 772-71 X Local Responsibility Needed, Chamber Head Tells Kiwanians Willingness to assume re sponsibility at the local level rather than to rush off to Salem or Washington for help is needed, Bill Williams, pres ident of the Medford Chamber of Commerce, declared Wednesday in a talk to Med ford Kiwanis club. Williams addressed the service club luncheon on "Building a Better Business Climate." He cited needs from the federal, state and local levels. He also asserted that businessmen need to take as equally positive stand as labor in government. At the local level, Williams said, county and city admin istrations are needed which have memory of yesterday and vision of the future as well as attention on the pres ent. He spoke of the necessity of continued interest and pride on the public school sys tem with particular interest on the problem of dropouts. Should Join Hands Since there are no "giants of industry" here, industries should join hands as much as possible and practical in re search, Williams said. At the federal level Wil hams hoped for better fiscal policies with reduced taxes and reduction of unneeded ex penditures. He said that there is need for an extensive pro gram through Congress for relief of the lumber industry here. More Equitable Tax The chamber president and vice president of Harry and David saw need for a depart ment of labor better enlight ened on the matter of provid ing more adequate harvest labor. He mentioned opposi tion in the department toward importing labor and said that importation of Mexican labor Sentiment Shown For Green Belt Law by Committee Salem -IUPII- Sentiment has been expressed for a tax de ferment proposal designed to strengthen Oregon's "green belt" law. After enactment of the law in 1961 it proved to be a spec ulators' bill which enabled land developers to enjoy tax advantages intended for farmers. The law is designed to give farmers in urban areas pro tection against being taxed off their land as new subdivisions increased land values and re sulted in higher taxes. Would Be Aisessed Considered by the house tax committee Wednesday was HB1230 which provides for deferment of part of a farmer's tax bill. Under the proposal, his property would be assessed at agricultural value and at its other poten tial use value. The farmer would pay the agricultural tax. When the property was sold, the higher value would be computed for the preccd in seven years, and the tax would then have to be paid. Nobody opposed the idea of the plan at Wednesday's hear ing, although there was much discussion of problems that might result if the proposal became law. The measure was referred to a subcommittee for fur ther study. Pilot 'Recruiting' Charged by Faubus Little Rock, Ark. - IUPII -Gov. Orval Faugus has ac cused the federal government of secretly recruiting Arkan sas National Guard pilots of the 1962 Cuban invasion and then "betraying" them. Some of them flew in com bat and one Air Guard plane was shot down, Faubus said. Brig. Gen. Frank Bailey, chief of staff of the Arkansas Air National Guard, said he did not know what Faubus was talking about. But he added the Arkansas A i r Guard "did not have any planes involved." Boof Facility Bill Gains Senate Okay Salem -d'PV- A bill to set up a fund for building boat ing facilities was given unani mous approval of the Senate Highways committee Wednes day. The money - some $300,000 a year - would come from the unrefunded boat gasoline taxes paid by boat-owners.

On the state level Williams expressed the need for more equitable taxation and advo cated a sales tax. "We are going to suffer," he said, "unless we have a sales tax to spread the base." Williams called for a pro gressive program for commer- , cial and industrial growth. I Said that the economy of the ! industries now operating ! should be improved but that ' there is definite need for in dustries which will smooth out the peaks and valleys re sulting from seasonal work. More jobs are needed for women, he maintained. 3 Washington - (UPD - Inde pendent telephone companies Williams exurossnri tfH!s",,:ll,,re"ma")rcon'mum. for expansion and improve-! mcnt of highways for better transportation to move out materials from the area. ties than the Bell system and twice the area.
