Vote Slated On Taxes WASHINGTON (API Congress may vote mis year a two-vear ex tension of present tax rates on corporation income, autos. cigar ettes, beer and liquor. The House Ways and Means Committee takes up today a bill to continue the 1951 Korean war time rates, which add about two billion dollars a year to normal revenues. Heretofore Congress has extend ed rates on a year-to-year basis. This year, however. Democrats and Republicans alike talked in terms of two years because of pol itics ana the budget delicit. Commit'ee members would like to avoid the subject of taxes next year when the presidential elec tions roll around. None of. the con gressional fiscal leaders sees anv likelihood that budget- revenues! can be reduced for at least two more years, or even longer. Unless Congress acts by July 1. rates automatically drop to pre Korean 1950 levels, when they were raised to finance the war. I 1CI I IIIIJ I ICUI 111 Said Scheduled For Sardines (?) NEW, YORK (API When is a sardine not a sardine? When it's a herring, says the U.N. Not so, says the Maine Sardine Council, which wants a hearing for the herring. It started when the U.N. pub lished its agenda for a World Sci entific Meeting on the Biology of the Sardine to be held in Rome next September, under sponsor ship of the U.N. Food and Agri culture Organization. The agenda includes "the spe cies of the genera sardina, sar dinops and sardinclla." Calvin Stinson Sr. of Birch Har bor, Maine, council chairman, promptly asked FAO Director General B. R. Sen for justification in not listing the herring. Stinson said the California sar dine is the pilchard or sardinops. many European and Asiatic coun tries pack the sardina and sardi nella, but that Maine and Cana dian sardines and Norwegian slid are herrings.

AP A judge commuted ailing Gov. Farl Iv. Long of Louisiana to a hospital Tuesday "for his protection and that oi others." He acted at the request of Mrs. Long. Mrs. Long's petition said the governor is exhausted, over worked and ill both mentally and physically" and requires observa tion and treatment, in a mental hospital for 90 days. Dr. Arthur Long of Baton Rouge, La., a cousin, also signed the petition filed with Probate Court Judge Hugh Gibson. Dr. Titus Harris, chief psychia trist at John Sealy Hospital, where Long. 63, has been a patient since Saturday, told the judge the gov ernor is menially ill and likely to cause injury to himself and others. Long came here after a tantrum on the floor of the Louisiana Leg islature last week. Physicians said he entered the hospital voluntarily but has re fused to answer psychiatrists questions. Texas law permits a doctor to hold a patient 'J6 hours after the patient demands release. Judge Gibson's order will be in effect until a formal hearing to determine if Long is mentally ill and it he should be hospitalized. The hearing must be held within 14 days. The law permits Long to attend the hearing with his own attorneys and ask for a jury trial. Deputy Sheriff Garland Leslie, who served the custody papers, said Long mistook him for a Tex as Ranger. He quoted him: "Well, I'll be damned. Here is a Texas Ranger. At lea-t I know the law is on my side; Sit down and let me talk to you. Ranger." Leslie said Long did not seem surprised when he told him he hud some papers for him. He asked il he would have a hearing and when it would be. Leslie replied the hearing date had not been set. "I'm glad to know you are help ing me." Long said. "Now. son. sit down and read those papers you nave lor me. Dr. John B. Truslow, executive director of the hospital, told Long the papers contained medical terms which needed explanation. Get Gov. i Price i Daniel ol Texas! on the telephone." Long said. I want to talk to him right away." At this point, Leslie left. A medical bulletin Tuesday night said Long "had a quiet day with continued slight improvement in his physical condition. The governor's illness created political confusion in -Louisiana. The Long administration faces many legislative pronioms as me legislative session nedrs an end after record spending. Vermont was the first state to forbid slavery. r,..tt,v-- ? - 3? - i-l I.- 1 yf::- tllll I I ittlil ll 1 1 Id ALMA LAYMAN, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Lay man, Klamath Falls, was awarded the 1959 Fairview School PTA scholarship which is given annually to an outstanding senior enter, ing the field of elementary education.

Russians Just Keep Smiling GKNKVA (API Gloomy as Western diplomats get about pros pects of the Geneva conterence, the Soviets keep smiling optimis tically. Soviet smiles persist although the foreicn ministers' conference is bogged down over the future ol West Berlin. "The talks were useful today." reports beaming Mikhail Kharla mov, the chiet Soviet siwkesman Down the halt Western hrielinc ofticers are telling newsmen, "no progress." "Well, we can't have progress every day," rejoins Kharlamov, L-ver cheerful. "The Soviet foreign minister and the Western foreign ministers rejected each other s proposals," say the Western spokesmen grimly- "It takes time and patience." lectures Kharlamov, his grin broadening. Kharlamov seems to he a happy fellow by nature but Western dip lomats suspect his constant opti mism adds up to something more than just a cheery disposition. They think the Soviets are try ing to make the world believe that progress toward a summit confer ence is being made. Nikita Khrushchev Is anxious to climb that summit with President Ki-enhywer. British Prime Minis ter Harold Macmillan and French President Charles de Gaulle. The Soviets in Geneva seem hound to keep smiling until their boss gets there, even if it some tunes looks as if they are being tickled constantly by an invisible ostrich feather. Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromy'so may have an idea that generating a pleasant atmosphere at Geneva will spur world public opinion to insist on the summit without substantial Soviet concessions.
