RED CHINESE GREETING -
chairman of the Central Committee of the Chi
nese Communist Party, greets U.S. Negro Rob
ert Williams and Mrs. Williams as they arrive
at a reception in Peking. Williams was on the
reviewing stand during a parade in which pa
raders carried placards and shouted "workers
and oppressed peoples and nations unite we
stand four square behind the American Negro
in the struggle against racial discrimination."
Williams, an American who works as a propa
gandist for the Castro regime in Cuba, fled to
Cuba in 1961 to escape prosecution in the kid
napping of a white man and wife during racial
strift in Monroe. S.C. (UPI)
Principal Suggests
Boys' Summer Camp
CORVALLIS (UPI)-A sum
mer camp for boys who are hav
ing trouble in high school has
been suggested by Harold Klei
ner, principal of Grant High
School in Portland.
Kleiner made the suggestion
at the fall conference of the As
sociation of Secondary School
Principals.
He said the living-in camp
would be for youths who are
having trouble with their
studies. The boys would plant
trees or do similar work, he
said.
Kleiner said at such a camp
the boys would learn to work
and possibly have a few hours
of class work each day. This
would help them develop re
sponsibility so they could hold
jobs, he said.
Last summer Multnomah
County operated the Oxbow
project, under which high school
youths were employed to de
velop a county park on the
Sandy River.
PRINCIPALS TO MEET
EUGENE (UPI) Nationally
known speakers in the field of
education are expected to draw
500 elementary school principals
to their state convention at the
University of Oregon Oct. 13-15.

WHAT THE TAX BILL WOULD MEAN TO YOU JI
Second in a Series of 10 Columns)
The way the tax rate cuts in the 1963 tax bill have been ex
plained to you is in terms of that mythical "married man, two
children, grosc income of . . ." or "single person, gross income of
. . . standard deductions." Forget them. They re statistics, not
you.
The table below, prepared by the Research Institute of Amer
ica, will tell YOU, a real person, what the rate cuts would mean
to you on the taxable income you report on your income tax re
turn after you have subtracted your real deductions and exemp
tions. The 1063 tax bill would cut rates for individuals in every
bracket, from top to bottom. Part of the rate reductions would be
made in 1064, the full reductions would apply for 1965 and on. The
present rates, which run from a low of 20 per cent to a high of
91 per cent, would in 1965 start at 14 per cent and go up to 70
per cent.
Suppose you, a married man, itemized your deductions on
last year's Form 1040 and would up with a taxable income of
SR. 000 on line ltd, after subtracting your exemptions and deductions.
Your tax last year was $1,240 and it will be $1,240 for 1963 on
the same $6,000 of taxable income. But if the House-passed bill
becomes law, your tax for 1964 would drop to $1,080 and for 1965
to $1,000. You then would be saving $240 a year just from the new,
lower rates. Now take out your last year's tax form, see what you
entered on line lid and check on this table what your tax savings
would be.

Men Tough On Each Other I
But Toughest On Animals
Man s inhumanity to man is
pretty mild when compared to
his inhumanity toward creatures
lesser than himself; creatures
who cannot defend themselves,
but must submit, often to pain,
long continued suffering, and
e v en a slow and agonizing
death. There are of course some
excusable and justifiable excep
tions, where scientific research
may help future animals, or
man himself, to live better,
longer, or less painfully.
Usually however, tnese exper
iments are conducted with a
minimum of discomfort for the
unwilling subject. What should
be objected to is the unneces
sary cruelty of man, whose only
motive for mistreatment is his
personal feelings, either when
angry, or for the satisfaction of
hurting something weaker than
himself.
Adverse Effect
Unfortunately there are some
of these people scattered
throughout our society, and it
would take a trained psychia
trist to explain what motivates
them. We should condemn, as
well as feel a little sorry for
the boy who excitedly pulls the
wings and legs from a fly, or
any other bug, just for kicks.
He may argue "the fly feels no
pain, but tne act itselt, in a
small way at least, adversely
affects his thinking processes.
The residue of cruelty could be
accumulative, making it easy
for him to become inhumane to
ward other creatures or toward
some other human being.
Acroww this desk come many
reports of man's cruelty to de
fenseless creatures, some ac
tually fiendish; acts of a dis
organized mind. Just this week
we received a report of a tame
family cat, beloved by its fami
ly, tossed back into its owner's
yard with its head bashed in,
evidently by a club wielded by
a fiendish neighbor who hated
cats, but was too much a cow
ard to come to the owner and
request that the animal be kept
at home. And scomingly worse,
tile report of the demented man
who deliberately shot a cardi
nal, right in the very middle of
its song, merely because the
melody awakened him while he
was taking a nap.
Human Nature
Some unfortunate neighbor
hoods harbor a human monster
that poisons dogs. The.se de
praved individuals, supposedly
possessing a soul, and some hu
man characteristics, have been
known to pound pulverized glass
into a piece of meat; the dog
that eats it dies a long, linger
ing death, whimpering in a pain
too great to endure.
There are examples of cruel
ty, activated by the profit mo
tive, where no anger is involved,
or spirit of revenue, but where
man descends to levels lower
than any beast, by deliberate
and unbelievable cruelty, and all
for blood money. Some diaboli
cal monster, in human form,
discovered that frog legs cut
from the frog's body, turned
dark. To avoid this, the legs
were torn forcefully from the
living frog. Then with brutal un
concern, the frog, still alive, is
tossed into a pile of other leg
less frogs to die a lingering
death. Seems impossible that
such a condition should exist
but it does, men with bloody
hands inflict this atrocity on
helpless creatures, just so the
legs will be whiter when served,
and bring a little more money.
At such times, and tor no
better reason, men become
lower than the creatures they
misuse; our civilization and cul
ture should have no tolerance
for such an act.

Rv DELOS SMITH
UPI Science Editor
NEW YORK (UPI) - The evi
dence that the rhinoviruses are
the common culprits in the com
mon cold is now of such volume
that many medical science auth
orities are confident of conquer
ing this minor scourge of man
kind before too long.
The newest contribution to the
evidence was made by a group
of scientists who studied "minor
respiratory disease" as it ap
peared spontaneously among
Marine corps recruits under
going basic training at Camp
Lcjeune, N.C.
Over a period of two years it
appeared some 800 times. In
each case the victim was swab
bed thoroughly for viruses and
the swabs were subjected to
laboratory tests designed both
to vield anv viruses they con
tained and to identify those vi
ruses. Not all "minor respiratory
disease" is clearly recognizable
as the common cold, one must
keep in mind. To guide them
the scientists had the general
ly accepted tell-tale symptom of
the common cold, which is "na
sal obstruction or discharge"
usually without fever.
From the recruits who had
that primary symptom, the sci
entists usually got rhinoviruses.
From some they got coxsackie
virus group A, type 21, which
also is scientifically suspected
of being a cause of the common
cold.
But in the recruits who yield
ed adenovirus still another
suspect viri's the "minor res
piratory disease" was less mi
nor than in the others and in
volved more areas of discom
fort. A puzzling finding was that
some young marines with the
primary common cold symptom
yielded no viruses of any kind.
This pointed up the immense
difficulty in finding the cause
or causes of the common cold,
as the scientists remarked in
reporting to the New England
Journal of Medicine.
"Illnesses in the virus-nega-
A 3
live group may have been caus
ed by presently unrecognized
viruses, non - viral infectious
agents, allergy, non - infectious
conditions or a combination of
these possibilities," they said.
Furthermore, there can be un
defined things in the state of
being a marine recruit and in
the environment of a military
"boot" camp which could have
influenced their results, they
added in warning against a too
sweeping incrimination of the
rhinoviruses.
The scientists were Drs. B. R.
Forsyth, H. H. Bloom, K. M.
Johnson and R. M. Chanock of
the National Institutes of Health
and the Navy.
Rhinoviruses form a group
which has been identified only
in the past few years. "Rhino"
means nose, that being the or
gan where they habitually re
side. Adenoviruses have glandu
lar preferences and coxsackie 1

killers.
The scientific optimisim re
garding the common cold was j

Many of us would get a further tax break in the form or a new,
minimum standard deduction if the 1963 tax bill becomes law.
Today, you have a choice of deducting your actual expenses, for
interest, taxes, charitable contributions, etc., or of taking instead
a standard deduction equal to 10 per cent of your adjusted gross
income, but not more than $1,000. The 1963 tax bill would leave
this $1,000 ceiling unchanged but would create a new floor or mini
mum which easily could be higher than 10 per cent ol your ad
justed gross income.
Beginning in 1964, if you are a married person filing a joint
return or an unmarried person filing your own return, you would
be entitled to a minimum standard deduction of $200 plus $100
more for everv personal exemption on the return, including the
exemptions for a husband, wife, any dependents, and old age and
blindness.
Say Smith is a 66-ycar-old married man with three dependent
children and he files a joint return with his 60-year-old wife.
His adjusted gross income is S6.000 and his personal deductions
come to S650. Under today's rules, Smith would choose the $650
deduction of actual expenses instead of the $600 standard deduc
tion (10 per cent of his adjusted gross income).
If the 1963 bill becomes law. Smith in 1964 would be entitled to
a new minimum standard deduction of $800 ($200 plus $100 for his
own exemption, another for being 65 or over, another for his wife
and one each for his three dependent children). This change alone
would save him the taxes he otherwise would have paid on $150.
