In The Legislature
By GEORGE C. H.ITCRAFT
As e approach the third month
of the 52nd session of the Oregon
Legislature, there is some indica
tion now as to the direction to
be taken by the House Taxation
Committee.
U is pretty well established that
Oregon taxpayers will lose their
major "deduction." This is the
$430,000,000 in income taxes
paid to the federal government.
According to the experts in the
State Tax Commission this is
the logical first step to be taken
if income taxes are to be increased.
ble the tax on beer and wine and
the bill to tax domestic insur
ance companies appear to have
little chance of being approved
by the House Tax Committee, ac
cording to some members of the
committee
The chances that property tax
payers will get any significant
relief out of this session of the
legislature appear to be very
slim. There is a possibility that
some "indirect" relief may come
via an increase in basic school
support funds, but the chances of

In spite of his bidding South
was an expert card player. Unfor
tunately, he was also a hand
hog. Otherwise, he would have
let his partner wrap up three
no-trump.
I cashed my king and ace of
hearts. My partner had opened
the three, dropped Ihe deuce on
the second lead and I knew he
was ready to ruff.
It was also apparent that unless
my partner held the king of clubs
declarer would have the rest of
Hie tricks, but if my partner held
that card declarer would have
to guess between a club and a
diamond finesse.
South and West knew all about
suit preference signals so I could
play the ten of hearts to ask for
a diamond return or the five to
ask for a club return.
I decided that South was In a
mood to play me for a double
cross so 1 carefully placed the
ten of hearts on the table. My
partner ruffed and led back a
diamond as 1 had asked.
South glared at me for a while
and finally remarked. "That was
too obvious. You can't have the
king of diamonds." Then he
played the jack from dummy and
another game contract had bit
the dust.

that they have no control over

In addition to the fact that

there is the problem of distribu
tion. The present formula is not
especially pleasing to either Mult
nomah Countv or to Eastern Ore
gon. These representatives are
not ardent supporters of increased
appropriations unless there is
some change in the method of
distribution of the education
funds. With all of the other prob-
money a given tax measure will
produce.
Proponents of this change point
oul that although the elimination
of this deduction will increase

3.6 Billion Fatalities
Predicted In Next War
CAPE CANAVERAL (UPD -
A U. S. science leader said today
that man will run the risk of
killing 3.6 billion people in a
single conflict within the next 100
years unless he changes nis
warring ways.
The figure is close to Ihe pre
sent world population. The statis
tical office of U. N. on July
1, 1961, estimated world popula
tion at 3.060.800.0(10.
Dr. I. A. Getting, president of
Aerospace Corp., said in an ad
dress prepared for a group of the
nation's top scientists and tech
nicians that "both the intensity

and magnitude of conflicts are
rising."
Getting cited charts of the
"terrible carnage" of past wars
which in this century alone, have
killed 42.5 million people.
"Thus." he said, "we are led
lo predict that by the first half
of the next Century mankind, if
it follows the precedent of past
years, would experience one war
that would account for some 3.6
billion deaths."
WASHINGTON d'Pl'-A presi-i
dential commission headed by
Gen. Lucius Clay has dratted a'
report sharply critical of some
U S. foreign aid policies, informed
sources said lodav.
The report is scheduled lo be
laid before President Kennedy
when he returns from Costa Rica
Wednesday and probably will be
made public later in the week.
It has already stirred some
controversy among administration
officials, some of whom appear
under the impression it is
against foreign aid."
It is the kind of report that
may be read by some as an at
tack on the aid program, and by
others as a strong defense of it,"
one official said.
The report is said to recom
mend no immediate major reduc
tion in the $4.9 billion foreign aid
hill pending before Congress. But
it is understood to challenge cer
tain aid programs and in general
to call for distribution of U.S. as
sistancc on more "hard headed"
economic and military grounds
But Rep. Otto E. Passman. D-
La., chairman of the House for
eign aid appropriations subcom
mittee, said the report would be
meaningless" unless it recom
mended an over-all cut exceeding
the average reduction usually
made by Congress. This would be
about $850 million. However, last
year's slash was a deeper $1 bil
