PAGE FOUR Compromise Seen For Session SALEM M Oregon' special legislative session was in recess Saturday and it appeared that compromise will tie the keynote as the second week opens Mon day. Leaders of both the Democratic and Republican parties said they thought their opposing theories on what to do about reducing taxes would need adjustment. Gov. Robert D. Holmes, who called the special session to cut down, through tax reduction, an expected state surplus of 74 mil lion dollars, said he would confer over the weekend with Demo cratic leaders. He said the pur pose would be to "assay the tax reduction picture as it now stands." One of the Republican leaders, who didn't want to be named, said that a compromise could be ex pected because "neither party has its neck bowed over this busi ness." The Democrats have gone along with Holmes' proposals in gener al. These call lor a reduction of 10 per cent in the state income tax - and an increase in basic school aid of $10 a year per child, a measure which would ease some of the local property tax load. The Democrats' plan would leave a surplus cushion of about 50 million dollars. Republicans have called for a greater reduction and have put through the Senate Taxation Com mittee a bill calling for a 30 per cent reduction. Although the two parties are divided 15-15 in the Senate, enough Democratic support makes it likely that the 30 per cent cut will be voted by the Sen ate Tuesday or Wednesday. It then will go to a conference cm- miitoa fti rtntnnrninisp over the 10 per cent cut which the House already has voted.

Negro Resettlement Pian Backers Blast At Nixon ATLANTA (UP) The head of a resettlement agency designed to move deep South Negro families into expensive northern residential areas says Vice President Richard M. Nixon s neighborhood has a covenant against admitting Ne groes and Jews. State Rep. A. A. Fowler Jr.. one of three charter members of the American Resettlement Founda tion," said "it's a shame the vice president would be a party to such an agreement. Fowler denied the first sched uled relocation of a Negro family would be in Nixon's neighborhood in suburban Washington, but he and Alan Kimper and Roy V. Har ris, tne two omer memoers, agreed it would have been an ideal location. "Of course we would be inter ested in considering property in Mr. Nixon's neighborhood for re locating Negroes and I am sure he would not object, lor his stand against segregation is too well known," Fowler said. 'Due to a restrictive covenant which Mr. Nixon and his neigh bors, I understand, have on their property prohibiting the sale, re sale and use of the property. by Negroes and Jews. I am sure that they would not sell to our founda tion." he said. Washington real estate men dis agreed over whether such a cove nant exists. A spokesman for W.S. and A. N. Miller, developers of the Wesley Heights section, said it originally was covered by a cov enant forbidding sale to Negroes or Jews. Doc Looking For Seat In Space Ship Of Future SANTA MONICA. Calif.

HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON Short Wheat In Mill For Sodden Palouse Farmers WASHINGTON Iff U.S. De partment of Agriculture research ers say they are making head way in their efforts to solve the problem of making tall wheat grow shorter. Researchers at the department's station at Beltsville, Md., say their project is aimed primarily at the Palouse, Wash., area where the farmers want shorter wheat with the present yield unchanged The researchers explain that heavy rains in the Palouse causes tall wheat to fall, making harvest ing difficult and causing loss.

Meredith Wilson, president of the University of Oregon, told delegates to the National Congress of American Indians' convention here Friday night this country is faced with many Indian problems. In a banquet address closing the week-long session, Wilson said there are as many Indian prob lems as there are tribes, because each has its origin in the defini tion of its treaties and because each has its own special culture. Speaking of integration, Wilson pointed out the case of the Negro in America was wholly different from that of the Indian. He said the Negro has no way to retreat to his culture because he was torn from his native land and enslaved and mt.de a part of the dominant white culture. Wilson, who also is chairman of the Commission on the Rights and Responsibilities of American Indians, a private group, recalled a story an old Indian once told him. He said the Indian contended the greatest fault of the white man is greed, but that if the In dian people would receive only- one thing educationall the land would have been well spent. Wilson said our government was founded on the principle of consent before change and that certainly "we should give the In-, dian that opportunity to consent before making any changes." At the final session, Joseph R Garry. 47, was reelected president for a fifth straight term. He is a Coeur d Alene Indian from Plum mer, Idaho. Most of the delegates stayed over to join in the three-day cele bration of Will Rogers' birthday and the 20th anniversary of the memorial to Rogers. The late hu morist, one of Oklahoma's most revered sons, was a Cherokee. Cattlemen Face Blast THE DALLES Wl-John Murtha of Condon Friday accused the Oregon Cattlemen's Assn. of be ing a front for the state Depart ment of Agriculture in supporting a proposed state beef commis sion. Murtha. secretary of the Gil liam County Stock Growers Assn, said the Department of Agricul ture was backing the commission proposal. But Frank McKennan, chief of plants and industries for the department, denied Murtha's charge. He said he was acting as hearing officer at a series of pub lir meetings on the proposal and neither he nor the department was taking sides. Murtha's objection lo the com mission was based, he said. the fear it might become a polit ical lootball if its members were appointed ralher than elected. Raymond Crabtree of Maupin, speaking in favor of the commis sion, said it could do an out standing job such' as has been done by the state wheat commis sion in seeking markets and pro moting sales. Another opponent of the plan was Dr. Frank Reid, a Rufus dentist and cattle raiser. He said the beef industry, as it stands, is the last segment of agriculture which still is in the hands of free enterprise.

Dr. Donald J. Bogne, associate director of the Scripps Foundation for Research in Population itod- lems at Miami University here, says "it's not true." In a special population report just published. Bogue says large cities are actually losing people through migration. The report, "Components of Pop ulation Change. 1940-50." is based on an exhaustive study of popu lation trends in 630 areas of the country between 1940 and 1950. "Central" cities in the New York and northeastern New Jersey area for instance, are said to have lost 307.667 persons through migration during the 10 year period. The report says Chicago lost 94. 951 persons, Indianapolis 15,937 and Louisville 9,768 because of people migrating to other areas.

CALL OR STOP IN FOR St&'Hll SOON I was Los Angeles, which gained 284.363 new residents through mi gration between 1940 and 1950. The current growth of big cities sprang chiefly from heavier birth rates, the report indicates. Bogue says increased urban pop ulations are the direct result of "reproductive changes," defined as a change in balance between births and deaths.
