Sentiment for such a measure appears to be powerful enough in the iniriciainrd to oass It there. but there Is speculation as to whether It would be sustained In a vote by the people, to which It would undoubtedly go either by legislative refer endum or by forced referen dum. A lot, we believe, would depend upon the bill that the legislature passes. What peo ple want is property tax relief. The only sales tax measure that has a chance of passing will be one that definitely will epiat offset the demand for property taxes. Previous defeat of sales tax proposals is in variably cited by those who are against this type of taxation or those who are for it, but are doubtful it can be passed. On that score, It is well to remember the long struggle required to establish the income tax in Oregon. Income tax measures were defeated more often than have been sales taxes, before the income tax was installed as permanent fixture in Oregon's tax set-up. Sentiment on such tilings can change. Long Session? OREGON'S legislature appears to be off to a fair start, but everybody around the state house seems to be talking about a session of at least 70 days. Such a session would outrun the' last one, which holds the record to date. How much of this talk stems from paid employes- whose total wages depend upon the number of days the session continues may be a subject of speculation. The Salem Capital Journal thinks that the experts, "who grow financially fatter each day the session is pro longed," are promoting the belief that the session will go to unprecedented lengths. Governor Earl Snell, however, has made the remark that "there is no valid reason why the forty-fourth legislature should establish, some sort of unpleasant record for being in session the greatest number of days in Oregon legis lative history." One trouble is that legislators, like editors and lots of other people, put off doing the dis tasteful things like making decisions on highly controversial bills until they are forced to do so by the passage of time and the approach of a deadline. - a Committee Plum BACK in Washington, Congressman Lowell Stockman of the second congressional dis trict is in possession of an enviable committee plum. ;-: i- Mr. Stockman was appointed to the powerful house appropriations committee, y This is the committee which- studies and recommends on all appropriations for power, flood control, rivers and harbors and reclamation projects. Mr. Stockman is the first Oregon congress man in history to become a member of the house appropriations committee. Senator Guy Cordon of Oregon is a member of the senate appropriations committee. He held the same job in the last session. Oregon, with representatives on the appro priations committees of both houses, is in an unusually strong position to get federal appro priations for deserved projects. We say "de served advisedly, because knowing what we do about Stockman and Cordon, projects will have to have that qualification to get their support.

But the significant aud obliterated truth of the budget matter was he increased every single category, new or old, except two. No matter what you call them, they all went up, except two, over the three-year period of his budgetary figures. You housewives who figure budgets for living at these prices know a budget these days is a hope expressed in figures, within which you hardly can hope to live. The federal budget is a little more complicated because of a time element. Mr. Truman is figuring Income and outgo for a period beginning six months hence and not ending until 18 months from date. He was therefore about as vague as you might be under those circumstances in these times. Now, in only two of his categories are his expenditure proposals less for next year than for last year. Those two are "national defense" and something he calls (not significantly I hope) as finance, commerce and Industry. (I have not included a third account which has been re duced, called "refund of receipts," which is purely technical repayment of taxes already collected.) a a Notional Defense Cut NATIONAL defense had had to be cut be cause you cannot spend as much for it in peacetime as in war, even last year's partial war year. This he cut from last year's $45, 000,000,000 down to next year's $11,000,000,000. The thing he called "finance, commerce and in dustry" was cut $215,000,000 down to $112,000, 000, nearly in half. But look at his figure chart and you will see "labor" went up from $104,000,000 to $117, 000,000. That category I mentioned as ideal "social welfare, health and security went up from $1,100,000,000 to $1,600,000,000. But you may summarize the general truth by saying his new category called "general government" (this is much better than saying the White House, or congress, or any individual part of general government, the mention of which might be odious) as I say general government went up about a third from $988,000,000 to $1,400,000, 000. So you must conclude from a budget analysis that the opportunity to increase every scheme is generally this: To cut down on nothing really except finance, commerce and industry, but to take this opportunity to increase everything else, and have no tax reduction whatever from the high wartime rates, making these high taxes balance a budget of unprecedented peacetime proximity to reasonableness $37,500,000,000. For this excuses may be plentiful. They al ways are in budgets. He may cite higher costs, needs, many other things. I am not dealing with motives. I am saying this is the residue result. a a a a Firm Stand UPON this newly excavated financial ground, the president you may have noticed, stood firm but firmly in the position of (strange as it seems) an economizer. He dared the repub licans to find 1 cent in $37,500,000,000 budget for tax reduction. At this, the republicans have publicly laughed and scorned. Even reluctant Republican Leader Taft has come around since he got advance word on the budget to advocate a 20 per cent tax cut, thereby joining House Ways and Means Knuufpn who demanded 20 per cent from, the first. .Both differ slightly on figures but say 20 per cent can be cut from the expenditure and this 20 per cent will be the relief proposed from wartime rates. My personal experience from 26 years of gov ernment budget reporting is that there never was a budget from which 20 per cent could be cut. That much could be made up in gov ernment waste alone, without going into other savings, categories including "wise expenses," "necessary expenses," "politically advisable ex penses," etc., which terms could well now be devised for advocation of new savings categories. If the republicans cannot cut 20 per cent out of that budget without interfering with any wise and necessary government expenses, they could not cut a piece of soft cake. now resides in Newton, N. J.

AP Foreign Affairs Analyst The deputies of the Big Four loreign ministers meeting In Lon don to do the preliminary work on a peace treaty for Germany are taking up a task which may require years for completion. The stated objective is a self- supporting uermany which will ultimately return to her natural economic role In Europe with. out, at tne same time, permitting resurrection of her war Dotential. In addition, England and the United States oppose what Rus sia wants a Uermany which leans toward the communist sphere. The French want to take over certain industrial areas of Germany and clamp the tightest restrictions on the rest. Russia wants reparations with out too mucn regard for tier many's ability to support herself, and will not cry too much if this requires continued Anglo-American contributions to the Ger mans. ; Little countries surrounding Germany also have claims against her. both for territory and reparations. Some of the questions to be decided include: Whether to permit ta central government to establish a loose federation of German states with strong centralization prohibited. How strictly to construe the term "industrial war potential," whether all steel production shall be internationalized, for instance, or whether production shall be permitted up to the level of supply for a strictly peace-time economy. (The French ar;e reported retreating somewhat from their demand for separation of the Ruhr and Rhineland from Germany and their internationization; but the Dutch are lobbying for the idea. and France still demands the Saar.) Whether to establish, or per mit the Germans to establish, a central German government cap. able of signing a peace treaty, or merely to impose it. Whether military occupation zones can be abolished and the operation can become one of policing, with reduced costs con tributing to German economic rehabilitation. How German foreign trade Is to be supervised, whether large corporations should be broken up; how to handle the problem of tariffs or their abolition, and prevent . any aggressive trade practices such as "dumping and exnort premiums. Whether to permit normal trade competition, or to integrate German production with that of other countries through con trols; and whether any long term international loans wnl be permitted. Research indicates that half of the 200 million tons of farm waste produced in the United States each year might be avail able for use in' making motor fuel. Got Laundry Troubles?

Search Fails To Locate Lost Plane Fisherman Spots Plane In Valley Concerning the disappear ance of an iirmy surplus plun and the pilot, Robert Ittihol torn of McMinnville, which Is lost on a flight from Klumnth Falls to Kugene, Rohrrt J. Koff culled The Herald and News with a tip that ho saw a grey or silver plane apparent ly In trouble In Wood valley triday afternoon. Rubottom left the Klumath Falls airport Friduy afternoon after refueling hore. Koff's description coincides with the color of the missing plane. Koff said that he saw a flnne come down low, about 50 feet off the ground, as If looking for a pluce to land, then suddenly swerve upward In a steep climb and puss out of sight about eight miles from Klamath Agency. Ills Information was passed on to the CAA. (See story on page 4.) An air search, fruitless up to late afternoon, continued today following the disappearance of Robert Lee Rubnltom lu.t Friday on a flight from here to McMinn ville, where Rubottom operated the Oregon "turkey express." Army planes from Hamilton field, operating out of hero, scanned the mountain route be tween Klamath and Eugene. Fliers coming In from the hunt last night reported new snow covered the area and there was little hope of sighting wreckage of a plane. Rubottom stopped here a little before noon last Friday, flying a high winged, single- englned army surplus plane. He had spent Thursday night at Bishop, and stopped for gas en route to McMinnville. Wilbur Whitcomb, manager of tho Klamnth airport, recalled that Rubottom obtained 53 gal lons of gasoline and six quarts of oil. Ho asked about the route to Eugene, and was told that fliers hero customarily flew, north to Chcmult and across the Cascades along the route of the Willamette highway. It was presumed Ru bottom took that route after tak ing off about 2:30 p. m. Friduy. Airport attendants said there was a 3000-foot ceiling, lower to the north, at the time. The sky was covered with broken clouds. Medford was closed In at the time, and it is feared Rubottom may have run into fog and bad weather after crossing the sum mit of the Cascades west of Chemult. Rubottom, 23, has received considerable publicity In connec tion with his plan to operate the "turkey express" flying young turkeys and other perishable cargoes from Oregon to mid western outlets. When turkeys art out of season he planned to change to sea foods and fresh fruits. The young pilot had accrued 1800 hours flying time. He served In the army air force, fly ing 26 combat missions from land bases In England. He won the Distinguished Flying Cross and tho Air Medal with three oak leaf clusters. Passage of nearly a week since he disappeared caused observers to look pessimistically todoy upon the chance he has escaped death or serious injury In a crash.
