No Proposal Ready
For Rail Firemen
Washington-flJrD - The rail
road firemen's union gathered
its decision-making commit
tee here today but there was
no proposal for it to ratify,
nor even a hint of a possible
solution to the threatened na
tionwide rail strike.
The 186 general chairmen
of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen and Engine
men met after being called
to Washington last week, at
the urgent request of Labor
Secretary W. Wlllard Wirt.
At that time Wlrtz said it

Before Need Plan
prevents hardships
Funeral costs often come
when a family's emergency
funds have already been spent
on hospital and medical bills.
A lingering illness may also
have caused a loss in family
income. You can prevent this
hardship by making provi
sions for funeral expenses be
fore the need arises. A phone
call will arrange a private con
sultation without obligation.

Plan Provides
More Tax Relief
For Individuals
Washington lUPB President
Kennedy's new tax - cutting
formula drew a much more
enthusiastic response from
congressional Democrats to
day than the original plan he
presented last January.
The revised plan was out
lined Monday to the House
Ways and Means committee
by Treasury Secretary Doug
las Dillon. It would take ef
fect next Jan. 1, and provide
net tax reductions of $10.6
billion for Individuals and cor
porations with the relief stag
gered over two years.
Compared with Kennedy's
original $10.3 billion tax-cut
ting program, the new plan
would provide slightly more
total tax relief and more
would go to individuals and
less to corporations.
But its chief political attrac
tion was that it was burdened
with fewer of the tax-tightening
provisions that made Ken
nedy's original plan so con
troversial.
To compensate for this rev
enue loss, the new plan would
provide reductions averaging
20 per cent in individual tax
rates, compared with 23.3 per
cent in the original plan.
The initial response of in
fluential committee Demo
crats was so favorable that it
seemed possible the commit
tee might approve the new
plan with only relative minor
tailoring, if It decided to vote
for tax cuts of $10 billion or
more. But that was a big "if."
The magnitude of the tax
reduction was the big issue
still undecided as the com
mittee summoned Dillon for
a second day of questioning
behind closed doors. The com
mittee was not expected to
begin voting on the proposed
rate cuts before Thursday.
Main Features
The main features of the
revised plan:
-Individual tax rates
would range from 14 to 70
per cent Instead of the pres
ent 20-91 per cent schedule
originally recommended by
the administration. The low
est rate of 14 per cent would
apply to the first $300 in tax
able income of the single
person and the first $1,000
of taxable income ol mar
ried persons with Joint re
turns. The top rate of 70 per
cent would apply to all tax
able Income in excess of
$100,000 for single persons
($200,000 for married couple
filing Jointly).
-Taxes on corporation in
come in excess of $25,000
would be reduced from the
present 82 per cent to 48 per
cent. That compares with the
47 per cent rate which the
administration initially pro
posed. The tax rate on the
first $23,000 of corporate
earnings would be lowered to
23 per cent from the present
30 per cent. The administra
tion originally proposed a 22
per cent levy.
-Limit the revenue-producing
revisions in tax structure
to less than one-third of the
$3.3 billion originally advo
cated, So far as individuals
arc concerned, the revised
plan called for adoption of
only two major structural
changes which have not al
ready won committee ap
proval. All of the committee-
voted changes wore accepted
by the administration. ,
One of the two additional
revisions It rccom mended
would' provide a new "mini,
mum standard deduction" tin'
dcr which many families with
low Incomes would be able to
claim deductions in excess of
the present 10 per cent stand
ard. This would provide tax
savings of $310 million for
such taxpayers. The other ad
ditional change would gain
$370 million in new revenue
by repealing the preference
in tax rates on income from
stock dividends in excess of
$50 a year for single persons
and $100 for married couples.

Portugal Plans
To Keep African
Territories
Lisbon, Portugal -IUPII- Pre
mier Antonio de Oliveira Sal
azar pledged Portugal's deter
mination Monday night to
hold on to its African terri
tories despite mounting pres
sure from Western Allies and
independent African nations.
In a nationwide radio and
television broadcast, the 74-year-old
premier said Portu
gal will defend "to the limit
of our human and material
resources" its position in An
gola, Mozambique and Portu
guese Guinea. It was Salazar's
first major policy speech in
more than a year.
He warned the U n 1 1 e d
States It is pursuing a policy
in Africa parallel to that of
Russia. Salazar called the
Russian policy "coherent and
logical" in terms of Commu
nist objectives.
But he said U. S. policy
"Involves a serious principle
of contradiction" because it
is bringing about the end of
European political Influence
in Africa and dealing a blow
to Western defenses.
The premier repeated last
year's threat that Portugal
would be "among the first"
nations to abandon the United
Nations. He brushed off oppo
sition to Portuguese African
policies within the United Na
tions and called the world
body a "menace to peace and
to the orderly life of nations"
since the massive entry of
Afro-Asian nations.
The . UN Security Council
voted a limited arms embargo
on Portugal July 31 and call
ed for a ban on the sale of
weapons for use against na
tionalists who have carried
.on rebel activity for some
lime in the Portuguese territories.
Chicago Integrationists
Renew Siege at School
By United Press International
Integrationists planned an
other siege today at a mo
bile school site on Chicago's
turbulent South Side where
pickets Monday charged po
lice lines in a demonstration
that erupted into a rock-hurling
brawl.
At least 50 persons were
arrested in the demonstration,
which stretched out over the
day and reached a climax
when the pickets charged the
police and hurled rocks.
Hard pressed police threw
bodyblocks and tackled the
demonstrators in attempts to
prevent them from hindering
workers laying down pipe for
an emplacement of the trailer-like
classrooms.
The demonstrators re
mained at the site laic Mon
day night and promised they
would return today.
Car, Train Collide
At Main St. Site
An auto and a Southern
Pacific switch engine collided
about 6:20 p.m. yesterday at
the Main st. railroad crossing,
according to Medford city po
lice reports.
Police said the driver of
the car, Robert Broadus Web
ber, 40, of route 2. box 443B,
was not injured. Operator of
the engine was Vestal Lavern
Powell, Crcswell, Ore.
Webber told officers he was
blinded by the sun and did
not see either the switch en
gine or the warning signals.
The engine struck the car's
left front fender at a speed
between 10 to 15 miles per
hour. No citations were issued.
The scene of frequent dem
onstrations, the mobile school
site is being prepared for the
start of public school classes
next month.
Integrationists have charg
ed that the classrooms would
help further alledgcd de fac
to segregation of the city s
schools.
A federal judge in Bir
mingham, Ala., Monday or
dered four Negro students ad
mitted to white schools in
Huntsville, Ala., in Septem
ber. District Court Judge H.
H. Groom also ordered the
school board to submit a plan
for complete desegregation by
Jan. 1.
It was the third school de
segregation ordered in Ala
bama, one of three southern
states including South Caro
lina and' Mississippi which
have no integration in public
grade schools. The two other
cities in the state facing de
segregation orders are Birm
ingham and Mobile.
