As far as I'm concerned, Mrs. Martin, I don't care if the government does interfere with certain doctor patient relationships." Typhoid Makes Lively Ski Resort Ghost Town IRS Expense Account Rules Spark New Fight ZERMATT, Switzerland (UP! An Italian waiter stepped sadly into Hie blizzard sweeping this mountain resort Saturday and tatked up the sign of the times over "Le Village," the town's top night club. "Chiuso. S c h 1 u s s. Cloture, closed." For Zermatt. it was a sign of sorrow the notification that this lively ski resort has turned itself voluntarily into a ghost town to help fight a spreading typhoid fever epidemic. There were few left to read the sign. The frightened tour ists had lied. Hotels, cafes, bars and night clubs closed their doors Saturday to help army medics track down the source of the disease, which has spread from Zermatt across Western Europe and into the United States. The few remaining tourists took trains to the valley , below Walker Raps Cuba Action ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (UPD Former Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker said Friday night five battleships could have toppled Fi del Castro during the Cuban crisis last fall. He said President Kennedy's behavior during the crisis "was the most uncourageous tiling I've ever seen." "If you say boo. Khrushchev will run like a rabbit," Walker told a conservative rally. Walker and evangelist Billy James Hargis drew an overflow '.crowd of about 1,000 persons, who paid $1 admission to hear them. Outside the hotel about 75 pick ets, most of them college stu dents, stood quietly in a light rain during the rally. A few carried signs. There was no trouble. Walker and Hargis are on their "Operation: Midnight Ride," with 29 appearances scheduled in 19 states. They speak tonight at Flagstaff, Ariz. The Albuquerque chapter of the .National Association lor ine Ad vancement of- Colored Persons (NAACPi canceled announced plans to picket Walker and Har gis. No Negroes were among the pickets outside the hotel, although a few Negroes were in the au dience. Hargis spoke against the NAACP, and advised his audience to support the activities of such organizations as the John Birch society. As he finished speaking, there was some hissing. and left the picturesque streets to the typhoid fever fighters. Streets which only two weeks ago were packed with skiers and other vacationers were deserted except for army half-tracks, rum bling over the snow with medical supplies and blood and human waste samples from local resi dents and temporary hotel workers. A blizzard blew across the vil lage, increasing the air of deso lation. "It's not very good weather for skiing anyway," said Chamber of Commerce President Con stant Cachin philosophically, sur veying dreary scene. By noon less than ICO tourists remained in Zermatt thousands normally visit at this time of year. A few restaurants stayed open until Sunday but it seemed as though they would have no body to serve. A sign reading "dance all night to the Pigalle Boys was partial ly obscured by a poster warning local residents they should imme diately submit to tests for sus pected typhoid fever. Three persons have died and almost 400 have been hospitalized by the epidemic in the past two weeks alone all of them either by having spent a vacation here or having been in contact with someone who has. WASHINGTON (UPP - The Internal Revenue Service URSi has proposed another list of "do's" and "don'ts" for expense account lax deductions. It came under fire'almost before the ink was dry. Thomas W. Power, general coun. sel for the National Restaurant Association, charged the new reg ulations would be "completely incomprehensible" to the average businessman. The proposed rules generally al low the business executives to do a considerable amount of tax- deductible entertaining, and even bring the wife along in some sit uations. Must Be Business-Oriented Huwever, each of these gather ings must meet certain IRS tests intended lo show that the wining and dining was business-oriented. "We believe the proposed regu lations reflect a liberal view," IRS Commissioner Mortimer M. Cap- lin told a news conference. Power said the big problem is that the average expense account spender will be unable to under stand them. "By the time the businessman weaves his way through this lab- yrinth of technical mumbo jumbo he just won't know the answer," he said in an interview. The new rules covering travel and entertainment deductions arc the second set intended to imple ment a 1962 law. Caplin said a series of public hearings would be held on the pro posed regulations in about five weeks. The IRS then will decide whether there should be any changes before they are put into effect. More Details Given The first set of regulations re leased late last year dealt with the record keeping portion of the new law. Those released Friday spell out in more detail what is deductible. It is the entertainment portion of the expense account guidelines that has drawn most of the dis cussion in the past. The new rules allow the expense account executive to deduct din ncr fur a potential business con tact even if the two never even bring up business. But the deduction will not be approved if they dine in an at mosphere where there are "major distractions, such as a floor show' On the other hand, if a busi nessman decides to invite a cli ent out for some "good will" en tertaining after a business discus sion, he can take him to a show and it will be deductible. However, in order to get this deduction, this visit to the club must come after a "substantial and bona fide business discussion," iccording to the rules. The rules also stale that if the businessman's entertainment ex pense meets the requirements, then the expenses of his wife or his guest's wife also are deductible. Jet Ejects Radar Man SAN DIEGO, Calif. (UPU - A reduced air-sea rescue operation Saturday combed the Pacific oce an for a young naval radar of ficer who was ejected accidental lv from a jet fighter near the Mexican port of Ensenada. Lt. Jimmie H. Evans, 22, Glen wood, Ga., was ejected Thursday at 28.000 feet from a Navy Phan tom II flying at supersonic speed on a training mission. The Navy said he was equipped with para chute, lifcraft and other survival gear. The Navy Friday night reduced its search force from eight de stroyers, eight helicopters, four amphibious planes and numerous fighters lo only five aircraft and one helicopter. Pilot of the tw'o-seat jet fighter, Lt. j.g.) W. G. Blunt. 22, said he felt a decompression in his cockpit when Evans ejected. B u t Blunt said he was unable to see Evans fall due to rain. Both are assigned to Fighter Squadron 121 at Miramar Naval Air Station. 18 Children Made Heirs SALINAS, Calif. - (UPD Eighteen children of two different parents became brothers and sis lers Saturday in the largest for mal adoption in California his tory. The father of 10 of the children Navy Warrant Officer Francis L. Beardsley, 47. A widower, he married Mrs. Richard North, the widow of a Navy flier who had eight of her own. Saturday's proceedings gave all the children the name of Beards ley and made them legal heirs to both parents. Monterey Count Superior Judge Anthony Brazil said alter conduct ing the ceremony that "This is a great day for all of you because now all the children are brothers and sisters to each other." The youngest member of the family of 21, Joseph John, I, was not involved as he is the offspring of Mr. and Mrs. Beardsley. The other children range upward in age to 19 years.

JFK Starts Vote Study WASHINGTON lUPH - Presi dent Kennedy Saturday set up a 10-membcr commission to study the reasons why so many Ameri cans fail to vote. He asked the group, which in hides politicians and professors. to report its conclusions by Nov. 30, a year in advance ol the next national elections. In the 1!M0 presidential election which Kennedy won, tW.atl3.341 persons voted out of a potential 106.482.000 of voting age. This was a percentage of 64.7. In the 11)62 congressional elec tions, 53.5 million voted, 49 per cent of the voting age population. In a statement announcing his executive order setting up t h e study group, Kennedy said re sponsible Americans "arc in creasingly concerned with the widespread failure of our citi zens to exercise their right to vote and restrictions which pre vent many Americans from voting." The commission was asked to pay particular attention to these factors: Laws restricting registration and voting on the basis of resi dence, economic status or other reasons; registration procedures: absentee voting provisions; and the failure of qualified voters to cast their ballots.
