I In this column three weeks ago, attention was called to two re cent tax studies, both of which showed Oregon -in a favor able light compared with other states in the West. One, having to do with the tax structure as it affects tourists, showed Oregon to be the only state with neither a sales nor a cigarette tax. The other concluded that among four western states compared Cali fornia, Oregon, Arizona and Wash ingtonthe tax burden on manu facturing industry is lower for Oregon than any of the other states. Still another study, called to our attention last week, shows the state per capita tax burden in 19fil to be much lower in Oregon than in any of the other Pacific Coast states, including Alaska and Hawaii. The figure for Oregon was given as $113, compared with these figures for the other far western states: Arizona, $133: Cal ifornia, $142; Nevada, $161: Wash ington. $167; Alaska, $138 and Hawaii, $206. Again, these figures will pro vide interesting ammunition in dealing with any industry which is contemplating a new or branch plant in the West. They also fur nish Oregon residents with food for thought. Next Thursday, on the day fol lowing the chamber's annual meet ing, the writer will leave for the ViUage Green at Cottage Grove for an all-day Economic Develop ment Workshop sponsored by the Oregon Department of Planning and Development and the two-day annual fall conference of Oregon Chamber Executives. During the workshop, Fred Hoefke. chairman of the Oregon Slate Tax om- CHAMBER OMMENTS by GEORGE T. CALLI30N v Monaaar KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMIKCt mission, Is slated to talk on the subject, "Telling the Tax Story,' and "Oregon's Business Climate" is one of the topics up for panel discussion on Friday morning. On the surface one might think that chamber of commerce execu fives would be fiercely competi tive since each one jealously and zealously devotes his best efforts to the economic development of the area o) community which he serves. Actually, through state groups, such as the Oregon Cham ber Executives, and American Chamber of Commerce Execu tives, a nationwide association, chamber managers freely ex change ideas and methods with one another. There are two principal reasons for this, and they are very closely related. In the first place, no two communities or areas are alike A plan that will work in one area may never get off the ground in another. While the personality, ca pabilities and energy of the two chamber managers involved may have some- bearing on the mat ter, the basic determining factor In the success or failure of any chamber of commerce project lies with the chamber's members, its volunteer workers, committee chairmen, directors and leaders. To the extent that they have faith in their community, believe in its future and are willing to work for it to that same extent will the chamber do the effective job It is set up to do. One final reminder regarding the annual meeting: Anyone plan ning to attend is asked to make reservations no later than noon, tomorrow. They may be made by calling the chamber office at TU 4-5193. 318 Attacks ALGIERS (AP) Euro Dean extremists staged 318 terrorist at tacks in the first half of Septem ber, say semi-official reports.

Met Misses Lily Pons NEW YORK (APt-For the first time In 30 years, Lily Pons' name is missing from the roster of the Metropolitan Opera.

The files are the papers of Norman N. Rupp and John J. Rupp of Saginaw, Mich., and Port land, Ore. They were given the University by Mrs. Margaret Rupp Clark of Portland. Included in the files are the diaries of John Rupp from 1875 to 1927, and the correspondence, journals, and ledgers of various companies owned or controlled by John Rupp and his son, Norman. The Rupp papers represent a complete record of investment in timber land in Florida, Louisiana. Minnesota, California, and t h e Pacific Northwest. The westward movement, ofi lumber and timber interests is well documented in the records. The Rupps were interested in mines and oil as well as timber. Norman Rupp was one of the first to develop oil properties in Michigan. The Rupp papers add a new dimension to the already large and diverse collection of lumber company and forestry records In the University of Oregon Library. These provide material for his torical research in a little-known field. HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore. 9-30 1N1 by litKto. T.M. ft. U.I.

Oregon Third In Power WASHINGTON (API - A newi study says Washington slate leads the nation both in developed hy droelectric power and in undevel oped hydro capacity. California is second In both categories. The Power Commission, report ing on the national situation Thursday, said Washington has power Installations totaling 6,272, 626 kilowatts and an undeveloped capacity of 19,133,609 kilowatts. The figures were for Jan. l, 1960. Oregon was listed as third in Installed capacity, with 2.427,132 kilowatts, and Idaho was third In undeveloped capacity, with 8,957,-000. Nationally about 85.3 million kilowatts of potential hydroelectric power capacity was undeveloped! as of the start of 1960, the study said. I included about 11.8 million kilowatts of capacity under con struclion. The total national potential was estimated to have an average an nual generation of about 361.7 billion kilowatt-hours. Fifly-six per cent, or about 53.6 million kilowatts of the total na tional potential, was listed as be ing in river basins west of the Continental Divide. The Columbia! River Basin has 33,187,600 kilo walls, the study staled. PORTLAND (AP) Mental illness is this country's biggest medical problem, Abraham Ribi coff, secretary of Health, Educa tion and Welfare, said today. "Some half a million patients fill our menial hospitals every day, occupying more than half our) hospital beds," he said in a speech prepared for delivery at the west ern regional conference of the Na tional Association for Mental Health. "All told menial illness costs this country more than $1.7 bil lion every year. It cost over $850! million in 1959 to run the nation's mental hospitals, and even this was not enough to do a proper job. "The cost in dollars only intro duces the story. In terms of loss of precious human talent. . .fam-i ily misery. , .personal tragedy, the cost cannot be measured," ho said. Ribicoff said a five-year study, financed by Congress, showed startling facts: "They show that 80 per cental our 277 state mental hospitals still provide only custodial care tori patients. . . More than half of the patients in most state hospitals re ceive no active treatment of any Bell Builds In Portland PORTLAND (AP) - A $3 mil lion Pacific Northwest Bell Tele phone Co. structure will be Iho firsl major building to go Into Portland's urban renewal project site. The phone company said it hopes to begin construction on the three-story building next year and complete it in 1963. The building will provide room for 500 em ployes at first, and could bo ex panded to six floors, The urban renewal area is southofthecivicaudltorium. south of the civic auditorium. The phone company building will be at the intersection of SW 4th and Harrison St. Kennedy Plane Brings Visitor WASHINGTON (AP) - Presi dent Kennedy is sending his jet plane to Khartoum to bring Su dan's neutralist President Ibrahim Abboud to the United States next Wednesday for a 10-day state visit. Kennedy's unusual gesture was made at a time of uncase in the Middle East over the Syrian rebellion. The Soviet Union also dis patched a jet airliner to the Sudan last July when Abboud made a 10-dny call on Premier Khrushchev. kind designed to improve their mental condition. . . These find. tags show that many of the pa; tienls In state hospitals do not need to be there at all." He noted, however, that the West was taking the lead in de-" veloping new facilities and tech niques, and in adopting recom mendations from the five-year study that Congress financed. "If I Judge the temper of this meeting accurately, you are. . . anxious, as are we to move In three directions: to increase our research efforts; to find and train people to put such knowledge as we have to work; and with all possible speed, to reduce our re liance on the big public mental hospital in favor of community treatment services," he said.
