Br DAVID SMOTHERS VPI Correspondent A Washington named Tom Power got up in Cincinnati last week and pleaded for $80,000 to fight the income tax department In a way. he was asking for a campaign fund to un leash the big-time spender a train. 'Pnwen is counsel for the National Restaurant Associ ation. l-lnrlnnatl July fcamt - 30 to launch a : campaign ..oin.i th. restrictions on ex pense account spending put into effect by the Internal t ....... soruire this year, He said the rules on what is and what Is not tax ae j..iki "will coat the na tional restaurant industry $1 billion in revenue this year and 140,000 lost jobs." First in Series Powers' Cincinnati pitch was first of a series of meet ings in which he hopes to raise $80,000. The money will pay for a series of full page newspaper ads in major cities urging a public letter writing campaign. The ads will be timed to coincide with the start of House com mittee hearings In Washing ton on a bill to repeal the ex pense account regulations. A United Press Internation al survey of top restaurants, night clubs and hotels in the nation's larger cities indi cated Powers will get a sym pathetic reception from them. Business has fallen IS per we haven't seen them com ing back yet." Hotel Optrators Unhappy Some major hotel opera tors were even unhappier. In Irnpiliun iu lusuia, HWlltJ ... their restaurants and night chins, thev said, the good old days of convention bonanzas were trailing off. Thomas J. Kane, vice pres ident and general manager of the Waldorf-Astoria in New York, said "in many cases men have not brought thriir wives to a meeting or convention as they did in previous year." In general, all conventions are being less attended. In stead of sending 10 men to a conference, an organization will send half that number. Thus, a convention that for merly brought 1,500 to the city now will bring 800 or less." It was the same story at Washington, Boston, Dallas, Los Angeles and San Fran cisco hotels. Tn make matters worse for the hotel and restaurant en- trepeneurs, there was a naeelns susDicion that lots of businesses were finding they could get along witn out expense account splurg ing. To Dan Sutherland, spe cial assistant to the general manager of the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, it seemed that companies which found they could cut back on expenses during the first six months of the new regulations "now feel they got along without it so why should they start spending again." Soma Consolation Restaurant and hotel men found some consolation in the belief that the worst was over. The big pinch came in the first months of the year, they said, when businessmen had distorted views of what the laws were about and j'.syed away accordingly. A spokesman lor Restaurant Associates, operators of New York's fashionable Four Sea sons and the Forum of the 12 in January and February. Thev (the regulations) scared everybody. We're OK now." It was estimated oy me new York State Restaurant Asso ciation that business was off 35 per cent last January and February and was now off 12 per cent. A Cincinnati restau rant industry spokesman fig ured business was down 12 per cent. In Los Angeles, where restaurants also went through the winter slump, the consensus was "people seem to be relaxing more now." Things would get even bet ter, hotel and restaurant oper ators said, if the Internal Rev it was very bad enue Service could find some men just wnat iney can ana can't mark up on the expense account sheet. For better or worse, the income tax regulations had forced many restaurants into complicated book keeping. Operators reported more and more of their customers were demanding receipts which they could show later to the income tax inspectors. Not All Sufftring Not all restaurants and ho tels professed themselves to be suffering. The "s p e c i a 1" rjlaces catering to erouos. con ventions, and lavish spenders were hurting. Others, such as the Longchamps restaurant chain in New York, said they were doing better than ever because businessmen who used to charge up expensive meals elsewhere were now coming to their places for cheaper fare. Even some live-it-up night clubs shrugged off the tax regulations. New York's Playboy Club, which relies on "bunny" wait resses and lush decor to lure the charge account set, opened up almost simultaneously with the new rules. "There hasn't even been a summer slum p," a Playboy man said. Yakima Man Killed As Car Leaves Road The Dalles - H'PD - Louis Wayne Prince, 26, Yakima, Wash., was killed on Tygh Ridge 30 miles southeast of here late Wednesday when his car went out of control on a curve and struck an em bankment. He was alone in the car. MATCHES DECOR Chicago (UPD Now you can match the control on elec tric blankets to the decor of the room. One manufacturer has introduced a control with a removable plastic top under which the homemaker can in sert wallpaper swatches, names or initials, photographs, even "His" and "Hers."

Newsman Receives Bird's Eye View Of Forest Fires Editor's Note: When liaht-. in a vellow-erav column from it has broueht out the Na- of Silver City in the Owyhee I major highway, less than a THURSDAT, AOQtflT . Ill) Editor's Note: When light ning touched off more than 100 fires acrois the state in the season's worst outbreak through ranges and forests this week, a UPI nawiman flew across southwestern Idaho to get a bird's eye view of the scopes of the fires. This is his report. By RICHARD CHARNOCK Boise-IUPD-From the air, the smoke spreads across the horizon and into the fiery orange of the setting sun and filters it like a dirty piece of gauze. Looking from Mountain Home to the northwest, you can see it everywhere. It rises in a yellow-gray column from flaming mountain timber in Bogus Basin. It b i 1 1 o w s in wispy strands from the peri meter of a back-firing circle of flames on the desert below. It's thick and hot and foul smelling as it gushes from a huge, fast-spreading fire that flows like molten lava across the rolling hills of the Crane Creek drainage near Weiser and New Plymouth. Fanned By Winds Visible for a hundred miles from southwestern Idaho into eastern Oregon, it's the smoke frnm inn firps lnrcp and small - set by lightning and it has brought out the Na tional Guard, volunteers and professional firefighters to quell it. A warning signal, the smoke is the unmistable sym bol of the worst outbreak of forest and range fires in Idaho this season. The first reports trickle in to fire dispatchers one, two, three at a time. Then the phone wires and the short wave radios start to crackle like the flames themselves and the reports begin to multi-ply-10, 20, 30 and more. Some are misleading. Earlv r e d o r t s sav fire threatens the historic and nearly deserted mining town of Silver City in the Owyhee Mountains. There's a fire, but it's 15 miles away across many ridges to the west and north. Your pilot banks low over Silver City and the cluster of buildings sits old and se rene and cool in the growing evening shadows of a moun tain pocket. Other reports are far too real. As your pilot banks and turns back toward Mountain Home you can see smoke in the distance. There, to the northwest of Mountain Home, tiny tongues of flame wink through the smoke, biting into the sagebrush. Cars pass swiftly along a major highway, less than a mlla from urhoro Ihn h n a p black patch of scorched desert begins. Beyond the fireline a lone bulldozer scuffs the ground, raising a cloud of dust. To the west, toward Bogus Basin, the smoke gets thick again. Firefighting planes fly low below you, making a late run while there still is day light. Darker smoke marks a tim ber fire ahead. It's on the side of a mountain about 12 miles north of Boise. It's hot and spreading fast out of control through a medium stand of pine. The firebombing planes I have been here, though. There are telltale pink splotches atop some of the knolls and frames no longer sear them. About 15 miles northeast of Emmctt, a brush fire burns on the north end of Squad Butte. It has covered at least 200 acres and still is spreading.' Can't Miss Fira But the 'big one" still lies ahead to the west and north. The sun is setting now but you can't miss the fire. The south ern edge is about 10 tn 12 miles north ot New Plymouth. Before takeoff a fire dispatch er for the Bureau of Land Management said this one had a "five-mile front.'1 It appears to have grown in less than two hours. Your pilot estimates it's about 14 miles long and 20 miles deep. It looks like a solid wall of flames rolling through a wasteland of sagebrush and grass. The pilot banks low for a newsman to take a picture. Heat and smoke boil into the cabin of the small plane. They take your breath away. "I'd certainly hate to fight fires for a living," somebody says. Nobody disagrees. DISTINCTION Broken Arrow, Okla. - (UPI) - The five civilized tribes were the Cherokees, Choc taws.

Imported Beer Market Increases In United States M.w York - (UPD - What has happened to the Imported beer market in the United ctntp makes better reading ... h Dutch and the Ger mans and the Danes than It does to the brewery worker in this country. It has been on the rise for some years, and the import ers - naturally - say it will continue. The National Association of Alcoholic Beverage Im porters, Inc., said recently that the sale volume of im ported beers should double within the next seven years. It cites figures to show gales of import suds were 218,000 barrels In 1955. By torn th.v hid Bone to 432,- 000 barrels; and by 1970 they believe sales will reach a million barrels. Small Breweries Dacllna This is not done, of course, without intensive sales effort, Vipaw advertising layouts, and against the toughest kind ot competition. The number nf umall breweries In the United States has declined in recent years, but the remain' Ins suds producers take I back seat to nobody In their marlcetlnff drives. Imports of beer into the TTitprf SfatPi in 1962 totaled 15,584,000 gallons. Biggest exporter was Germany with 5,731,000; Canada was next, 3 554,000; The Netherlands third, 3,297,000; Denmark fourth with 1,031.000; and the total of all others was 1,971,000. But while these figures are Impressive, and the forecast of a million barrels of Im port by 1970 is likewise, the amount of imports are barely a drop In the atein compared to American production of the foaming beverage. One major American brewery alone, Anheuser Busch, had sales of 9,035.000 barrels in 1962, and other major pro ducers were in the multi million barrel class. Yardstick Needed for House Hunting New York - m - Take along a yardstick or folding rule when you go house shop ping. You will need It to check some vital statistics which will make the differ ence between convenient nd inconvenient living. Use the measuring rod on closets -they should be 24 inches deep. Less depth crumples garments and more is a waste. Halls and doorways should be at least three feet wide so large fur niture can be moved in and out. 1 AA SMALL EGGS 4 doi.'1 Here's a Value PREM LUNCH MEAT High in nutrition & flavor 12-oz. can 3 TUNA Sea Trader . .

But it should start being less de pendent on such aid than in the past. The artlrlp was nunioA . length by the New China news Agency in a broadcast monitored in Tokyo. Important Change The nation's economy, he wrote, "is undergoing a most important, qualitative cnange. This marks a leap forward of our economy. "In the course of socialist construction," he added, how ever, "it would be wrong to pay no attention to the use of material incentives to enthuse the working people." This has not been neglected, he indicated. "But on the other hand," ha added, "no revolutionary movement is possible if ideo loeical education to raise so cialist consciousness is neglect ed. "Both aspects are essential for the increase of production, so that neither should be neglected. To us Communists, however, no material incen t i v e s and amenities should take the place of our revolu tionary ideal and motive." Le Duan said that it was necessary for the country to develop its agriculture as a base for development of light and heavy industry. But he said it was imperative that this industry be developed. He indicated that "some people" want to keep North Viet Nam as primarily an noriiMiHnrfil rnuntrv with lit tle priority given to industrial development. There was an implication that some ot inw pressure might be coming from other Communist bloc countries. Counter To Principles IH17. ...air. V TV much the assistance from fraternal countries and in f u t u r e we shall continue to receive neip from them," he said. "nut via matter how enor mous is such aid, it cannot replace the subjective efforts of our people. Dependence on the fraternal countries tuna completely counter to the principles of proletarian inter nationalism. Every Commu nist party must be responsible to its own nation." u. -aaa .hot "In achiev- lie . ing international cooperation at present, we cannot ao away at will with the independence of each economic unit and cer tainly cannot turn our country into a rural area in the social ist camp." - Court' Records ASHLAND MUNICIPAL COURT Charlei Byron Knapp, improper taCnariT Klehafd Kinf, dlioby4 ""rSonSS' R.V Scholar. dlaobtyI ,t0&o'iK' Wllllam Harth. dU obeyed itop ilin, S3.
