Thursday at the first news con

He refused repeatedly to give

Trailer Dwellers Paying
Property Tax, But They
Ain't In Favor Of It
, By EDWIN B. UAAK1NSON
WASHINGTON Wl President
Eisenhower's "new concept" for
defense, emphasizing air power
and new weapons while making a
four-buiton-dollar spending cut, got
enthusiastic Republican support in
Congress today.
Many Democrats withheld fire,
saying they wanted to study the
complex multibillionKlollar budget,
but Sen. Maybank (D-SC) in an
interview asked "expansion of our
air power as fast as we can."
He suggested unspent foreign aid
funds be used to speed the Air
Force program.
And Sen. Douglas (D-Ill) ques
tioned plans to cut back ground
forces of the Army and Marines.
Chairman short (R-Mo) of the
House Armed Services Committee
said he does not expect any sharp
fight in the House, but disclosed
the committee has arranged for
defense chiefs to. expound the new
policy to lis members.
snort said Secretary of Defense
Wilson and Adm. Arthur M. Rad
ford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff, will appear at a closed
meeting Monday. .
One Democratic member of the
committee, Rep. Price of Illinois.
said House Democrats - probably
would, support the budget.
"As long as they (the adminis
tration) have awakened to the
need of air power and atomic
"we can go along with the risk in
other fields, hoping they know
more than they're telling us."
Tne senior Democratic member,
Rep. Vinson of Georgia, was one of
those reserving comment pending
further study.
But Short said in an interview
he got the Impression Wilson "feels
he could cut the budget even
more, but he knows what he can
get away with."
'Everyone, knows we have got
have economic strength," Short
commented.
In the budget for the fiscal year
which begins July 1, the President
stepped up spending plans for the
Air Force as well as for air arms
of the Navy and Marines.
These Increases were more than
offset by plans for cutbacks in
manpower and spending of the
Army and Navy. As a result, rec
ommended outlays were held to
about 37 billions compared with
about 41 xj estimated for the cur
rent fiscal year, which ends June
30.
Douglas, a World War n Ma
rine, said it "seems unwise to cut
our ground forces this much."
The budget Indicated that the
Army would drop three of its
SALEM (J) The people who
live In trailers are having to ay
property taxes now, and tney don't
like it.
State Tax Commissioner Samuel
B. 'Stewart doesn't feel sorry for
them. , '-
Stewart said he can't see why
people who live in house trailers
shouldn't pay their share of the
cost of schools and local govern
ment, Just like those who live in
regular houses.
Until Jan. 1, residents of trailers
paid only a $10 vehicle license fee
for using the highways. They paid
no property taxes.
But since then, under an act of
the 1953 Legislature, they pay
property taxes.
The new tax applies to persons
who have trailers for their resi
dences. The assessor bills them
Jan. 1 of each year.
The assessor collects the tax
money immediately. Trailer resi
dents don't get until November to
pay up, like owners of permanent
homes do, .
The assessors collect the tax on
the spot- because they fear that

Distance Swim
Held "Tough
VICTORIA W Famed distance
swimmer Florence Chadwick said
here Thursday night her proposed
20-mile swim across the strait of
Juan de Fuca would be the most
difficult and coldest of her career.
She's scheduled to make the
crossing aboard a tug Friday to
study water temperatures and cur
rents before reaching a decision
this week-end whether to go ahead
with the swim this summer.
Miss Chadwick has been offered
$7,500 by a paint company here
If she attempts the crossing and
another $2,500 if she makes it.
The course would be -between Vic
toria and Port Angeles, Wash.
"I guess I'd better bring along
a fur-lined bathing suit," she said
Thursday night upon her arrival
from Seattle.
"I expect to make tne crossing
myself," she added, "I think that's
already established."
At least three other swimmers
have said they intended to Join
Miss Chadwick on the crossing.
The latest challenge was made
by Roy Sutter, of Los Angeles, a
United States Army veteran.
the trailers might be moved before
the tax is paid.
"The new tax on trailers is fair,"
Stewart said, "because trailer res
idents should pay taxes like any
body else. -
"It hasn't been fair for school
districts to have to educate chil
dren who live in trailers on which
no school taxes are paid. And It
isn't right to provide police and
fire protection to the trailer resi
dents for nothing."
Stewart said there are many
hundreds of trailers in the state
which will be taxed.
Some school districts, he said,
have had to go to much extra ex
pense to educate children in trailer
families. These districts are locat
ed near big construction projects,
like those at The Dalles and Mc-
.Nary dams.
The tax varies In each county,
depending on the county's ratio of
assessed valuation to true valua
tion, and on the county mlUage
rates. -
An example: on a $2,000 trailer
in a county with a 50 per cent ratio
and a tax rate of 75 mills, the
tax would be $75 a year plus the
$10 license fee if the trailer Is to
be jaoved on a highway.
The new tax doesn't apply to
trailers used only for vacations or
occasional trips. It also .doesn'
apply to men in military service,
If a trailer owner doesn't pay
the tax, the trailer can be seized,
