Well, she was misinformed on that count, But in the course of the conversation she also stated she couldn't understand why we were aeainst the referral of the It isn't hard to explain. It simply is that if the tax bill is defeated, state government and fi nance are going to suffer a damaging blow from which they will not soon recover. WHAT, specifically, will happen if the tax measure is defeated ? No one knows, exactly, at this point. And it is this that causes us to join with Ham let, and "makes us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others that we know not of." But some of the alternatives are known. The Governor could order state expenditures reduced by some $60 million. He is not apt to do this on his own, tor the resulting loss in state services would be disastrous, and he is no man to accept such a responsibility. MORE likely, he would call the legislature into sossi'nn in spp what, rnuld hp. salvao-prl. What they would do might end up with (a) a worse law than the pro posed one, or (b) cuts in vital state services, or (c) a drastic increase in property taxes. The chance that the legislature could, in a limited session, come up with a good tax bill, embodying reforms and revisions acceptable to the voters something they could not accom plish in 140 days of the regular session is re mote. The chance of some aging budget cuts, plus burden, in many cases to ford increases, is less remote is, in fact, likely. THE Eugene Register-Guard, whose editors are close students of government and state fi nance, has this to say : "The referendum is being sold as a tax conservation measure. It is not. It will cost far more, in the long run, to repair the damage it would do. And always over our heads is the threat of Increased property taxes. "The state has levied no property tax since 1040. But is must levy one if the income tax, the tax the re ferral people want to reduce drastically, does not bring In enough money to pay the bills. ' "And one of the most sensitive programs to the cleaver Is the basic school support program. A slight change there could save millions In income tax money, but transfer the burden to local property taxes." IT IS THE unquestioned vnfat in Avorriaa hi a v eyi w 4t.a iiiu u 11 11 juuiiivmv mu vu vm referral, and as to voting on the tax. But, in the present situation, it would be ir responsible government to defeat the tax bill. The people of the state need must have the services which the state provides: educa tion, police protection, mental hospitals, prisons, and all the rest. If they are to have these, they must be paid for. And, all things considered, taxpayers get quite a bargain. The level of state service is set by the leg islature, subject to the veto of the voters. If they veto the current tax program, the services will suffer, some of them seriously. And if anyone can say "I don't care about that," that is irresponsibility. WE DO NOT, frankly, like the choice with which all of us are now confronted. We do not like the legislature's tax program. But even less do we like the prospect of financial and gov ernmental chaos and confusion which inevitably will result if the state's financial resources are sharply reduced. The budget for this biennium is not a lavish one, and represents about the minimum in state services which the people have come to expect, The tax increases arises from the fact that surpluses from the fat and easy postwar years have vanished, and the "moment of truth" in state finances has arrived. In this situation, a vote for the tax measure, little as we may like it, is a vote for responsible government. A vote against is a vote for me sponsibility and governmental disarray. E.A Dun can on Congressman Bob Duncan, in his current let ter to constituents, made comments on the test ban treaty we have seen He said: "Small as the step is, the proposed partial ban on nuclear testing can properly be called a major step forward in our quest for peace. Assuming no more tests (In the atmosphere. In outer space or under water), the air should be clean by 1967 and the hazard of radio active contamination averted. The nuclear arms race is 'Inhibited' but not 'prohibited.' "Equally as important is the hope offered for fur ther moderation of East-West tensions ... In Europe and the Western Hemisphere. It Li not time to relax. It is not time to disarm, and we do not disarm by this treaty. Indeed, our readiness and arsenal will be main tained. The U.S.S.R. is still a formidable enemy and let no one forget It. The treaty is in Russia's best inter est . . . especially in view of her troubles with China. But it is also In our best Interest . . . not as any iron clad guarantee, but as a device which better assures U.S. security than docs unlimited testing. It is Infinitely the lesser of the dangers posed by the alternative of no test ban treaty. The benefits are increased in di rect proportion to the number of the nations of the world which sign. Thus, we control and limit the pros pect of further proliferation of nuclear capability among those nations. It deserves, and will, 1 think, get prompt Senate approval."

The letters printed In this column do not necessarily represent the views of tr paper, In fact the contrary is often Not Fools To the Editor: SO, the latest SMEAR is, only the illiterate write to their Representatives and papers, MT editorial 8 16. The so called literate so cialistic minded dont bother to write for they are to busy thinking up smears and more smears for the ones who are opposed being sent over the rapids as is being done. The Government Is "of the people, by the people, for the people." Our representatives are elected to represent the people and it only thru their voices they are to know the wishes of the people. We dont elect them, then say "Now go ahead and do as you plesae." If so we may as well give over to dictatorship. The voices of the people are being ignored more these socialistic days, but I do know that in the past, telegrams and letters had great effect on our representatives regarding cer tain bills. I was a telegtaph operator for several years In a Capitol City of a State. When certain bills came up for vole, the telegrams came through by the hundreds (not counting letters) either op posing or of passing a bill. Dont tell me they were all from illiterate people. At least their voices and views had some effect. Can we be too Patriotic? The attitude today seems to be for a "fair to middling pa triot." Are we to believe it is the thing to be mildly pa triot or mildly traitorous as long as it is not extreme. That sound like a foot-ball coach telling his team "Get out there and fight boys, but don't let anyone know which side you are on." If Geo. Washington were to follow the current line he might have told the troups at Valley Forge," Courage men, but not too much! win if you can but don t offend the enemy." At the present time we can hear," We must op pose Communism, but be kind to the Reds, and if they come to our Country, give them a warm welcome." Is that being a Patriot or a traitor? America was founded by patriots and every advantage In the history of mankind was accomplished only by complete dedication to an ideal. Lets keep writing, opposing the dlstruction of our rights. We may be called crazy for writing them, but at least we are not FOOLS. Mrs. Ernest Santo 204 Lozier Lane Medford (Please print as written. Thank you.) Man's Ways To the Editor: It is quite generally understood by all students of history that Dec. 25 was not the actual date of the birth of the Messiah. This is confirmed by most all Bible dictionaries and en cyclopedias. Many claim it is all right to celebrate it some times, and why not take this date? The reason is very simple and plain why this date should not be considered. It is of heathen origin, and was handed down to us by the pagans, a very corrupt holiday of feasting and prosti tution. The Christmas tree was also used by them, and likewise, together with the day. be queathed to us through the channels of Rome. Jeremiah said (in Jer. 10:2- 4): "Thus saith Yahweh, learn not the way of the Heathen, for the customs of the people are vain; for one cuttcth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. They deck It with silver and with 4 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OfiBGON Knows His Own Bomb the case. gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not." Also Easier, to honour Semiramis, the mother, and wife of Nimrod, (or Moon Deity), they set aside a time in honour of the Moon Deity. This time was to extend from the first full moon after the Vernal Equinox, or the 21st of March until the first Sunday after this full moon. The Messiah came, the true Passover lamb, and was kill ed on the date when the Pass over lambs were killed, the 14th day of the month Nisan or Abib (Ex. 12:16, Ex. 13:4, and Luke 22:1-7) without re gard to the day of the week. But Satan was again ready to help the Christians. Sunday keeping, which was accepted as a Christian institution, is another pagan rite and with it came all its heathen cus toms. What an Insult and blas phemous exchange this is. Could humanity bring any greater offense to Yahweh and his dear son than to offer him such pagan substitutions? Sunworship, Sunday, Sunday Law, Christmas, Easter, and Halloween, etc., are pagan in origin and character. These things come to us branded with the mark of paganism and christened with the name of the sun deity. Thomas N. Bostwick P.O. Box 801 , Medford Prophecy To the Editor: I am no prophet, but I will take the risk to say the test ban treaty will be signed and ratified by the U.S. Senate. The Prophet Joel saw the time we are liv ing in when "old men would have dreams and young men visions", etc. Men that do not believe in God or the Bible have been inspired of God because of their higher in telligence to invent the H Bomb. That can be used for our progress and good. Com parable to our automobiles that are killing people by the thousands every year. As far as I have been able to learn, man will never have the power or potential to destroy this Earth that our Creator has made for us so that we could learn to choose the good from the evil. By the same token, man will never have the power to destroy our civilization that has advanced to such a high degree of perfection (Isaiah 11:9). After the signing of the test ban treaty, the trend of the nations will be the fulfill ment of the prediction, that is in process of fulfillment now in our day, by the apostle John that "Jesus loved". He compares our modern army tanks, that can issue fire, smoke and brimstone from their fronts as well as rear, to horses. He could hardly call our army tanks by any other name in his time. He saw millions of these tanks and that one third of the men in the world would be killed. For this prophecy more in de tail see Rev. 9: IS to end of chapter. Compare also Isaiah 4:1. Outstanding among the prophecies of the Bible is recorded in Mat. 24:14 where Jesus said the Gospel of his Kingdom would be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations. It would seem that would exclude the H bomb and Include Russia and all her atheist satellite nations. John F. Peterson fill South Holly st. Medford Taxes To the Editor: When the Congress of the U.

Reluctant West Germany Signs Test Ban Treaty; Mistrust of U.S. Noted There By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foroign Naws Analyst Sin being an offense which all right-thinking men must renounce, West Germany this week signed the partial nu clear test ban treaty in Mos cow, London and Washing ton. But it ...n urith nh. vious misgiv- 'Vk I ings. These "aaav-.aB.aBBBBi , ,. ., , - HUSK I v u ft o "w,om sprang not from any disagreement with men's efforts to avoid self annihilation. Rather, they were tied to a mistrust of Washington, which also affects other Europeans and which among West Ger mans takes specific form in a fear that eventually they will be asked to recognize the permanence of a divided Ger many. It was this fear that Secre tary of State Dean Rusk had to overcome in his Bonn stop over on the way back from Moscow and which led the West Germans to specify that their own signature on the treaty in no way implied recognition of the Communist East German regime. It also led the West Ger mans to complain that, what ever Washington's good in tent, they had not been filled in properly on steps leading up to the treaty nor on Wash ington's decision to cut its 6,000-man Berlin garrison by 10 per cent.

THEATER PROBLEMS When play producers have guessed wrong, and have put on a turkey that closes on ialur d a y night, they are inordinat e 1 y fond of blam ing the drama critics for "hurting the theater," be cause only one out of each four or fl.rrli five plays on Broadway succeeds in becom ing a hit. Apparently no one has ing the welfare of thousands of citizens striving to live on a yearly income of less than $1,200. The average Social Security benefit is about $1, 200. Originally the income tax exemption was established at $2,000. The same has shrunk along with the shrinkage of the dollar in about the same proportion. The exemption is presumed to be for the cost of living. It would be interesting to the folks in low income brackets to have an explanation by the law makers as to how they can live on the exemption of $600. In 1894 Congress passed an Income tax law providing for an exemption of $4,000 and a modest 2 per cent on the bal ance. The Supreme Court de clared the same a spoiliation of private property and threw out that income tax law be fore a dime was collected. That court might declare the present 20 to 91 per cent con fiscation of property with due process of law. The 20 per cent tax increase in the new tax package passed by the Oregon Legislature should be blocked by the peo ple signing the referendum petition and should oppose any increase whatsoever until it is clearly shown that an increase is necessary. Oregon is clobbered with one of the stiffest income tax programs in the nation. Government waste and dis regard for those paying the bills are the main cause of un reasonable and ruinous taxes. The high taxes on property and incomes resulting from the terrific waste and unnec essary expenses of elected of ficials have caused the pur chasing power of the dollar to shrink to about 30 cents. That shrinkage has forced thousands of elderly folks to depend on government hand outs to exist. Seems rather ironic when it is considered that this country is presumed to be the most wealthy in the world. Also when more than $100 billion of so-called for eign aid has been given away to countries of the four cor ners of the earth. It would be naive indeed for the people to expect econ omy in government, local, fed eral or state, nevertheless that is one of the most potent cures for the tax ills of the nation. Ed Black 2573 Camp Joy rd. Grants Pass, Ore. A tory talks could be the es tablishment of inspectors in countries of both East and West to guard against sur prise attack. And again they complain that they have not had an ade quate fill-in. Despite U. S. assurances that no agreement on an in spector system would be reached without full approval of the NATO partners-which means both West German and France - the Germans have asked that the subjects of safeguards against surprise attack be taken up by the NATO council "at a very early date." The Germans are said to fear that in its early stages an inspector system might in volve only the two Germanies, tending to isolate West Ger many from the Western alli ance. While these fears might be dismissed as a case of Ger man jitters, it is also true that they lie at the core of what has been West German policy since the inception of the West German Federal Re public in 1949. Chancellor Konrad Aden auer fought for and won West Germany's right to enter NATO as a full and equal partner. He has been equally adamant in opposing any act which might imply recogni tion of East Germany. The so-called "hot line" be tween Washington and Mos cow and proposals for agree ment on a system of inspect ing both are directed toward easing world tensions and as such are welcomed by the Western Allies. But equally, they don't want the two big powers carving up the world to suit themselves. J. Hams ever pointed out to them that this is a high percentage of success in the arts. Thousands of books are pnblished each year, but only a handful make the best-seller lists. A book publisher is fortunate if one volume out of 50 makes a great deal of money. And yet, consider how much easier it is for a book to be a success than for a play. Only one person, the author, is fundamentally responsible for it. If it is well written and grasps the imagination of the public, it can sell hundreds of thousands of copies. With a play, a d o s n things that can go wrong have little to do with the playwright's own contribu tion. Tha writing may orig inally have boon good, but was cut and patched during rehearsals. The director may botch his job. The ac tors may be miscast. The advance publicity may be inadequate or inept. Tht relatively narrow audience that comprises tht avtragt Broadway first night may not be hospitable to the themt or tht treatment. Tht obstacles that a play needs to overcome art tre mendous and varitd. It is a huge collective effort -especially, as is tht trend today, if it is a musical in volving choruttt, danctrs, orchestrations, and elabo rate scenic tfftcts, with an investment often approach ing a half-million dollars. Ont success out of four or fivt stems incrtdiby high to mt, considtring tht in numerable possibilitits of failurt. And whtn thircV rata musicals, likt a dostn I could mention, can run for a s t a s o n or more on Broadway, it bespeaks an immense toleranct on tht part of tht audience - a toltranct that is not extend ed to mtdiocrt novels or poems or essays. ... The public's almost pathetic desire to be entertained, to get out of itself for an evening and escape the anxieties of the day, offers the play producer a huge advantage over the book publisher; for many peo ple look upon reading as a chore and the theater as a lark. We could count on the fin gers of Mordecai Brown the number of truly good plays that have failed because of critical attacks; when plays fail it is because, as Bernard Shaw observed, "the public would rather pay to see a naked body than a naked mind on the stage." Actors themselves are often contemptuous of the plays they appear in; they need em ployment, but they do not de ceive themselves about the quality of the productions they lend their talent to. In deed, the real theatrical tragedy of our time is the super-abundance of actors and actresses with genuine gifts who are forced to waste their talents on plays they privately despise, before audiences who have little notion of the shod dy goods that are being sold them. Gary Boldwater, Boy American! By Arthur Hoppe Hi there, boys and girls out there in front of your TV set. Comfy? Well, hold on to your hats 'cause here we go - off on a brand-new thrilling ad venture series with a brand new thrilling adventure hero In the Day's News y FRANK JENKINS The big story these days? It's the debate before the U. S. Senate-which must rat ify or REJECT the treaty lim iting the testing of nuclear weapons to UNDERGROUND tests. The treaty has been signed by both the U.S. and the Soviet Union, but before it can become binding it must be ratified by the U.S. Sen ate. DR. EDWARD TELLER was week's most spectacular figure. He opposes the treaty. He says he believes Russia is ahead of us in perfecting a MISSILE KILLER and wants to stop NOW, before we have time to develop a defense against missiles-which would require TESTING. That, he says, is why Soviet Premier Khrushchev wants this coun try to agree to halt all but underground explosions. WHY is a missile killer im portant? Well, if we can learn how to STOP MISSILES before they can get to us we can avoid nuclear destruction. THE other side of the argu ment was presented by Dr. Harold Brown, the Pentagon's research chief. Dr. Brown says: The limited nuclear test ban treaty will actually IM PROVE, rather than damage, the military position of the United States. He adds: Even if the Soviet Union CHEATED on the treaty, to the maximum extent possible, with secret tests, they could not obtain any substantial military gain comparable with UNRESTRICTED nuclear testing. TIE concluded: "This treaty before the Senate (for ratification or re jection) will IF FULLY OB SERVED actually improve somewhat the position of the U. S., as compared with a situation where both sides are not bound by a treaty to re frain from tests everywhere except underground." fN THE military side in the Great Debate that now is going on before the Senate in Washington, General Cur tis LeMay, air force chief of staff, endorses the treaty ("reluctantly," the reporters say) and General Thomas S. Power, chief of the Strategic Air Command, opposes it as "not in the best interests of the U. S." General Bernard Shriever, head of the Air Force Systems Command, tells a closed ses sion of the Senate prepared ness subcommittee that he feels that he can "carry out his mission BETTER without the treaty." WHAT of us little people? Well, we listen. We shake our heads in perplexity and hope for the best. It's a high ly technical subject, and we don't know the answers. A word of advice: Let's listen-carefully. Let's appraise-to the best of our ability. Let's not get carried away-on either side. Let's use our heads. This may be one of the great turning points of history.
