Tobacco Tax Considered
In Move To Balance Budget
SALEM (AP) The House Tax
ation Committee Friday came up
with a tentative tax program in
cluding a tobacco tax and a busi
ness tax.
Rep. Clarence Barton (D-Co-
quille), chairman of the commit
tee, said the program would bal
ance a budget between 310 and
312 million dollars.
The committee turned to the
tobacco tax for about 10 million
dollars for the next biennium.
It would place a three-cent a

WEED Experiences as a priso
ner of war for five years in a
Russian concentration camp and
law enforcement in Germany dur
ing the Hitler regime and after
World war II were related by Dr.
Walter Steinert at the Thursday,
April 9, meeting of the Siskiyou
County Peace officers ' associa
tion held at the Dunsmuir Hotel in
Dunsmuir.
Of 5.000 prisoners, Dr. Steinert
was one of 400 returned from the
concentration camp in Siberia fol
lowing World War II. Others, he
said, died of starvation, disease or
mistreatment.
"Dr. Steinert, who is teaching at
Shasta "Junior College at Redding
under the . Fullbright Fellowship
Program,-vowcd that Germany to
day is one -of the United States
strongest and'friendliest allies and
praised, the U.S. operations in . West
Berlin. Communist, population in
Germany' is now almost nothing,
he said and the American strength
in Europe today has prevented
Russian domination.
The association nominating com
mittee submitted a new slate of
officers for the ensuing year in
cluding, Harold Barnum, Mount
bhasta chief of police, president
William Auman, Weed game war
den, first vice president; M e 1
Cozzalio, chief criminal deputy of
the Siskiyou County sheriff's of

Barnes, California Highway Patrol
officer, Yreka, third vice presi
dent; Mrs. Lucile I. Gaynor, Weed

Dick Newton, deputy sheriff. Fort

Nominations made from the
floor were for T. B. Gilzean, third
vice president; and Laurence Tay

treasurer. Election will be bv
mailed ballots and the results wiil
be announced at the May 14 meet
ing scheduled at the ski bowl
lodge on the mountain. .Installation
of new officers will be held at the
June 11 meeting.
C. W. Champlin, Dunsmuir, chief
special agent for Southern Pacific,
presided at the April meeting and
announced plans were near com
pletion for the May 20 "field day"

package tax on cigarettes and 15
per cent, on other tobacco products.
The business tax would offset
repeal of the personal property
tax on inventories and provide
enough revenue to increase state
aid to education from $105 to $135
per census child.
After approving the tobacco tax
by a 7-1 vote, the committee ap
proved a measure reducing the
capital gains tax in an effort to
encourage investment in the state.
The committee also worked over
the income tax bill which would
raise about seven million dollars
more despite lower rates. -
It would pick up revenue by
eliminating deductions, e x c ep t
contributions to . religious, chari
table and education organizations,
and by making more people pay,
Personal exemptions would re
main but the committee has not
decided whether they should stay
at $600.
One feature of the bill is a pro
vision that taxpayers subject to
withholding would not file tax returns.
Instead these 400,000 would
send their withholding statements
to uie lax commission lo deter
mine if they owe more or get a
refund. .
Barton said the income tax bill
combines several proposals.
The Legislature has $252,100,000
from present revenue sources to
work with and $28,500,000 in sur
plus funds.
The tentative program includes:
1. Two million dollars in reve
nue from a utility tax bill tabled
by the Senate Taxation Commit
tee. '
2. Another three millions from
inheritance and gift tax law
changes.
3. Three million dollars from in
creased liquor prices.
4. -Elimination of income tax in
stallment payments which involv
es eight million dollars for the bi
ennium. The Senate Tax Commit
tee has the bill passed by the
House.
5. Tan million dollars from the
tobacco tax.
6. Seven millions in additional
income tax revenue.
7. Four million from other
sources.
This plan, with the capital gains
loss figured at what Barton calls
its absolute maximum of seven
million dollars, totals 310 million
dollars.
The business tax is not included
since it would go directly to education.

Farm Adviser Ken Baghott of the
University of California reports

The second kind of information
requested by the census will be
record of farm 'products pro
duced and sold in 1959. Questions
such as "How much barley was
sold?", "How many acres of po
tatoes were harvested?", etc. will
be asked.
The third kind of information
sought will relate to selected farm
ing activities this year. How many
days did the farmer work off his
farm? How much fertilizer was
used this year? A few simple rec
ords kept by farmers will help
in tie census taking.

News Editors Criticize Military News Blackout
WASHINGTON (AP) - A com
mittee of the American Society ol
.Newspaper Editors charges that
suppression of military informa
tion is preventing the American
people from making intelligent de
cisions on national defense.
The report of the society's Free
dom of Information Committee
was slated to be made by its
chairman; Herbert Bruckcr, editor
of the Hartford (Conn) Courant.
The ASNE closed its annual con
vention here Saturday with a ban
quet at which Vice President
Richard M. Nixon spoke.
In the freedom of information
report prepared for delivery to the
convention, Bruckcr criticized con
gressional committees for closing
a high percentage of their hear
ings to the press. He also deplored
what he described as a simi
lar tendency in the executive
branch.
"The practice can be justiiied
to a degree in the executive agen
cies, especially in defense mat
ters," Brucker said, "but it is car
ried so far that it must constantly
be resisted.
At this moment, he said, the
American people have insufficient
information to make intelligent de
cisions bearing on national security.
Not only Is the public judgment
obscured on such questions as the
status of America's missile pro
gram, Bruckcr said, but also on
:he crucial issue of whether de
fense spending has been cut to
balance the budget or whether it is
truly adequate to protect the coun
try. The citizens are obliged to
depend on the interpretations of
ten conflicting of political rivals,
he said. t
Bruckcr also challenged the
broadened interpretation of the
equal time principle adopted by
the Federal Communications Com
mission. The ruling obliges radio
and television stations, which give
time to a political candidate, to
match. this with equal time for his
opponent.
Awards Given
For Safety
DUNSMUIR Sixty-one young
sters received certificates on Mon
day evening attesting successful
completion of the Hunter Safety
Course of the California State Fish
and Game Department.
Al Cottar, Siskiyou County sher
iff, was the guest speaker for the
final meeting of the course at the
Dunsmuir Elementary School. Cot
tar emphasized the safety factor of
hunting. He pointed out that the
record of boys and girls who have
taken the course is better than
that of hunters as a whole as far
as hunter accidents are concerned.
Cottar praised Dunsmuir for hav
ing the most active hunter safety
program in the county. .
Instructors who volunteered their
time for the course were, John
Boggs, Bob Kenoyer, Jack Samu-
clson, Jack Leslie, Jim Hartman,
Jack LaBarre, Herman Kostiz, Bill
Eoff and Noble. Day. Dr. H. A.
Meredith assisted with eye examin
ations.
The technicians seem to. be
making more and more wave
lengths available for broadcasting,
so that less and less control should
be needed," Bruckcr said. "But
the FCC instead is reaching out for
more control.
The editor said it was a hope
ful sign that the American Bar
Assn. now is reviewing ils "Canon
35" the rule against the taking
of photographs in court rooms.
The ABA last summer created a
committee to check the experience
of judges and lawyers in courts
where cameras were Dermitted
"The ABA is properly sensitive
icsi me rignt ol lair trial be prej
udiced, Brucker commented. "In
our experience, however, the only
thing which has been denied a
fair trial is the camera in thi
court room. It Is a hopeful sign
that the bar association now is
looking for the facts in the case."
