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.

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.

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.

He said the North Vietna.
mese economy would also
have to be dependent on for
eign aid for a long time to
come, according to an article
he wrote for a party organ,
Tuyen Huan magazine. But it
should start being less de
pendent on such aid than in
the past.
The artlrlp was nunioA .

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.

countries and in f u t u r e we

"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."
