Report Given By Tax Group POHTLAND lAPi A slate joint legislative Interim Commit tee, meeting in Portland Sunday suggested three ways to increase stale tax money without incrcas ing income tax rates. The group, polishing a report it will submit at Ihe next session of the Oregon Legislature, sug gested: Elimination of the deduclion fur federal income taxes. Elimination of personal exemp tions and substitution of dollar tax credits after the income tax is computed. Uequircnicnt that self-employed persons file estimates of income and pay taxes quarterly. State Sen. Waller J. Pearson (D-Portlandi. chairman of the committee, said that he was not making Ihe proposals as suggest ions only not as recommenda tions because the committee did not want to recommend taxes that may not be necessary. The final report by the com mittee will be tilled Oct. 15 and a supplementary report will fol low in November, Pearson said.

Heretofore, it was believed that harmful radiation increased the farther man went into space. But Pioneer's tiny radio bleated indications that radiation is thick est in a 5.000 to 6,000-band, then tapers off.

Pioneer, a top-shaped package containing instruments reporting internal temperature, micromete- orite impacts and other data, was hurled into space on a three-stage rocket early last Saturday from cape Canaveral. Ha. Literally miles of electronic tape information were recorded by tracking stations in England. Hawaii, Singapore and Florida. said Dr. Ruben F. Mctller, senior adviser on the project. Many weeks must be spent analyzing them belore a technical report can be published: Pioneer has indicated this about radiation, he said: "It appears mat at 10.000 miles altitude, ra diation begins to diminish. At 60. 000 miles it is one sixth what it is at 10.000." The heavy band of radiation measures two or three roentgens per hour, Mettler said, and "one could not spend more than a few minutes in it unshielded. Conclusions can't yet be drawn irom Pioneers radiation renorts. he said, except that a capsule to carry a man through the heavy hand for "any appreciable time, say 15' or 20 minutes." must be carefully designed.
