OEA Dilutes Plan For Tax Support
MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON
PORTLAND (UPI) - Thej
sharp contrasts of opinion re-j
Rarding the Oregon Education!
Association's stand on a state
sales tax earmarked for educa
tion was mitigated somewhat
when the organization unoffi
cially diluted its previous pro
posal in support of the measure.
Organization members made
It clear they would like to have
the OEA support an education
sales tax, but not initiate one.
The proposal called for active
support and possible initiation of
a sales tax.
In other business the
group named Beulah Elliott, Al
tamont Junior High school
teacher, new vice president. She
will automatically assume the
presidency of the organization in
l!lf)5. President for next year is
Allen Rogers, an Albany teacher.
Liquor Prosecutions
Blamed on Youngsters
OLYMPIA, Wash. (UPD
Youngsters were responsible
for more than 1,100 prosecu
tions for violating stale liquor
laws in fiscal 1963, the State
Liquor Control Boad said Mon
day. The board, in its annual re
port, said the year was also
the biggest ever for sales of
beer, wine and hard liquor.

NEW YORK (UPI)-The songs
of the Christmas season are the
songs of home.
But some of America's top
companies believe that they also
help to get the housewife out of
her home and into the stores;
or that they will, when played
in the home, help to remind the
consumer of the existence of the
company or of some of its
operations.
The use of recorded music as
a business booster has become
widespread among American
businessmen, not only at Chris-
mas hut at other times of year
as well.
Trend Growing
Stanley Arnold, New York
marketing consultant, believes
that music on long - playing
phonograph records, especially
created for companies, will help
attain a wide range of mer
chandising objectives, and that
a trend to ils use, already well
established, is growing.
There are an estimated 75
million phonographs in the
United States, and sponsors of
the special records or albums
feel that their presence in the
home bring an indirect message
repeatedly to the owner.
Two major tire manufacturing
companies, Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Co. and Firestone Tire
k Rubber, have for the past
Ihrec years sponsored Christmas
LP albums. A. C. Sparkplugs,
also in the automotive field, is
this year promoting a special
LP recording of the Osmond
Brothers "We Sing You a Merry
Christmas." MGM set up a
Wizard of Oz" album built
around the music from that al
most ageless film, issued it for
Procter & Gamble; sales were
more than 100,000.
Cost Cut
Arnold, who originally created
the Goodyear album as a special
store traffic builder, believes
that more than 3 million of its
current edition will be distribu
ted this year; it is offered
through 60,000 dealers and fran
chse holders from coast to
coast, at a low cost.
From a cost standpoint, Ar
nold believes that the use of
albums has advantages. A big
initial order by the sponsoring
manufacturer allows special ar
rangements with the perform
ing artist or units. The sponsor
does not count costs of advertis
ing, merchandising, point of sale
display and other promotional
materials in the purchase price;
there is high volume and small
per unit distribution cost.
Some companies have used
the records to furnish a tie-in
with sponsored television shows.
Tie-In Sales
A number of manufacturers
have had special records cre
ated for sale only in retail
stores, with the sales tied in
with their products. Companies
using this form of the promo
tional record include Kleenex,
Ordinarily the music used in
the records come from the re
cording company's existing li
brary, although special record
ings are done for some, such as
the Goodyear album this year.

Many Government Officials Bribed
By Rafael Trujillo, Book Reveals
By LYLE C. WILSON
United Press International
Just published are the mak
ings of a big and smelly mess
in Washington in which it is al
leged that many members of
the Congress and other U.S. of
ficials were bribed by the late
Rafael Trujillo, Dominican dic
tator. These allegations appear in
"Trujillo: The Last of the Cae
sars' (published at $4.95 by
Henry Regnery Co., Chicago).
The author is Arturo Espaillat,
described by the publisher as:
"A graduate of West Point,
(former) head of the Domini
can army, for a time Domini
can consul and U.N. represent
ative in New York, and at the
time of Trujillo's murder head
of internal security." Espaillat
writes that Trujillo's murder
was arranged by the U.S. State
Department and that Prof. Je
sus De Galindez was killed by
the U.S. Central Intelligence
agency.
The book's most sensational
chapters, however, allege multi-million
dollar bribery. A
member of te publising house
said this would involve some 30
members of the Congress,
mostly senators and House
committee chairmen, in addi
tion to State Department offi
cials and other public figures.
Says Names Available
The publisher's covering let
ter accompanying the book to
some reviewers noted the cir
cumstantial nature of Espail-
lat's charges and slates: "We
couldn't mention names in the
book, but these are available
through an interview printed in
a Canadian paper."
So, much or all of the Espail
lat story has been previously
published in Canada and some
also in the Indianapolis, Ind.,
Star. On Jan. 22, 1963, reporter
Robert Jones led off a piece in
the Star like this:
"A shadowy but e.-.plosive
drama is being en-.cted behind
the scenes in Washington these
days. If a fraction of the
whispered reports is true, a
situation may be in the making
which could explode with a far
bigger bang than the Teapot
Dome scandal of the '20s."
Investigation Seems Likely
Reporter Jones seems not to
have overestimated much, if
any, the megaton potentialities
of the scandal that would bil
low around proof of charges
contained in this newly pub
lished book. It is not conceiv
able that the U.S. Congress
will be able to avoid investi
gating the charges of bribery.
After all, the names of bribe
lakers are said to be available
in Canada.
Author Espaillat names indi
viduals in Washington who
might know, as agents or other
wise, where Trujillo put his
bribe money. There is some
where a file recording all of
the bribe transactions, accord
ing to Espaillat. He believes it
may be concealed in Washing
ton, perhaps in official custody.
If so, the file is being sup
pressed. Politicians were not alone in
accepting Trujillo money, ac
cording to Espaillat. Some
newsmen got Trujillo favors
and some persons were bribed
merely because of their stand
ing in the community and not
for any official position they oc
cupied. Espaillat pictures Trujillo as
a sucker for any highly placed
American who might say a good
word for the dictator in ths
right place.
The Senate now is inves
tigating one of its clerks. Con
gress scarcely can afford to re
fuse to investigate itself.

Mrs. G. V. Hg should have
confided in us. Now he's in
trouble.
Michael V. My parents are
no help. They get me all mixed
up.
Mrs. (1. V. My husband and
f thought we had a close rela
tionship with our 15-year-old son.
Now it's like the end nf the
world for us. Two weeks ago
he was picked up by the author
ities as a truant. Unknown to
us he'd been pals with two
hoodlums, one a juvenile de
linquent with a record. He'd cul
classes, sat in poolrooms, forged
my name to- absence excuses.
He was let off with a warning,
but we must report weekly.
Michael V. I had no one to
talk lo at home or at school.
The classes were murder. I fail
ed every quiz in chemistry and
Latin. The only ones who under
stood my agony were Red and
Lenny. How can my mother
say we were close? She and
Dad get me dizzy. If she says
yes, he says no. Dad told me
lo drop Lalin. Mom (old Dad
to tutor me. She said drop Sci
ence, he called me a quitter.
Whatever I do, one of them
gets sore.
.
The Council ''Save the sur
face and you save all" may be 1
true of a house but not of a
family. The shinv veneer of ,
the V. household has cracked
to reveal an insidious undercoat
of marital hostility. Using Mi
chael, Mrs. V. and her husband
have been "getting back" at
each other. Despite protesta
tions of love (or their son, these
parents were so wrapped up in
their own ego - needs that they
were hardly aware of Michael's.
Added to his school worries was
his guilt over being the cause
of so much disagreement be
tween his parents . . . But there
is a bright side. The "shock"
may activate the "therapy."
Reporting to the Youth Board,
Mr. and Mrs. V. may receive
counseling for their marriage
which, in turn, will enable them
lo offer Michael a united, con
sistent love. Once a boy realizes
he was not the cause, onlv the
outlet of bitterness, a big load '
will be lifted from him.
