Klamith Falls. Ore. Monthly Withholding Report Bill Opposed By In a meeting directed largely to the discussion of proposed state and federal legislation, the Klam ath County Chamber of Commerce endorsed the passage of Senate Bill 63, which would require that contractors be licensed by the state, and opposed House Bill 1076. a proposed law which would require firms withholding $100 a month in state taxes to file state income tax withholding reports monthly rather than quarterly, it developed at the weekly meeting of the chamber on Wednesday. In addition, the chamber took a look at some federal legis lation and endorsed a blanket rec ommendation by Ross Ragland chairman of the National At fairs Committee, that it oppose passage of three bills which would alfect mass transportation svs terns in cities of 25.000 popula tion or more, and approve Laushe Bill 5-807, also connected with transportation systems in large cities. The Laushe Bill would permit state, local government, and busi ness leaders throughout the na tion to develop urban transit sys tems in their respective areas through use of their own re sources, talents and capabilities, according to Ragland. On other federal legislation, the chamber concurred with another recommendation by Ragland that it oppose three other bills, in cluding bills HR5131 and SI, which would establish a youth conserva tion corps, and bill HR4996, deal ing with area redevelopment ad ministration. The latter bill would establish a permanent Area Re development Administration and, in addition, authorize the spend ing of an extra $436 million for all phases of ARA, Ragland said. The National Affairs Committee opposed the youth conservation bills because it believes that such a program would compete with privately financed work-study pro grams now being expanded in secondary schools. The youth corps bill would re move young men from the eco nomic, activities of their commu nities without guaranteeing that they would be better prepared to fill manpower needs after complet ing their tour in the woods, Rag land noted. If passed, the law might also result in causing more student to "drop out of high school," he said. Under the proposed bill, the cost to subsidize each young man would be approximately $7,000. with the federal government to in cur 50 per cent of those costs, Ragland concluded. Letters indicating the chamber's position on the bills which may become law will be sent to law makers at the state legislature and to Oregon senators and rep resentatives in Congress. The two state bills acted upon by the chamber were introduced GAN0NG' South Easter it's time ft for i Tender Marshmallow factor hnnnioc rhirWc otr & - if 25 fiffiT3 JP Ganong'i Voritty f.yi4M So. 6th & Shoito Way r.'Hi.MTI.I Nxt to Safeway Thursday, Chamber Of by Floyd Wynne, director of the State and Local Affairs Commit tee, who commented briefly on each of the pieces of legislation. On Senate Bill A3, Wynne said the bill was designed to eliminate "one-shot contractors who passed through a community and left a mass of liability in their wakes." The bill would make contractors! responsible to a Contractor's Ad visory Council, which would be established upon approval of the bill by voters. The Local and State Affairs Committee objected to the establishment of the coun cil, and recommended that the chamber endorse the bill with the provision that the contractors be regulated by state trade councils already in existence. The cham ber approved of the recommenda tion as expressed by the commit tee. On the bill involving the month ly reporting of state income tax cs of employes, Wynne said the bill would affect firms that would report more than $100 in such taxes monthly. The bill had originally been written to affect only employers reporting at least $1,000 monthly in employe state income taxes but it was later extended to in elude (irms whose workers paid a total of $100 or more in those taxes.

The object of the legislation is to al low the state to obtain its taxes sooner so it may invest the mon ey at an earlier date and thereby obtain more interest annually. After reports on pending state and federal legislation, Jim Schill, district manager of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce at Port land, spoke of another matter on legislation. SchiU said that individuals, gen erally, were shirking their respon sibilities as citizens in not ex pressing their views on proposed legislation to their representatives in state and federal government He cited that U.S. Senator Maur- ine Neubcrgcr of Oregon had voiced displeasure that Oregon- lans, particularly businessmen, were doing a "poor job" advising their lawmakers how they should vote on proposed bills, especial ly tax laws. Schill also commented briefly on the national debt, slating that it amounted to $1.4 trillion and not $308 billion as is generally be lieved. He cited further that the net worth of the nation is estimat ed at approximately $322 billion. On the subject of Senate Bills 84 and 793 which would affect control of the Upper and Lower Klamath refuges and the Tule Lake Refuge, the chamber ap proved a recommendat ion by Dick Henzel, member of the agricul tine committee, that it reaffirm its opposition lo the bills. The chamber also named Chet Lang- slet, another member of the com mittee, to speak in its behalf in voicing disapproval of the legis lation at a Senate hearing April A in the nation's capital Langslct will appear at the hearing to recommend that a number of amendments be added to the bill. The amendments would provide for the preservation of marsh lands which are needed for the breeding and nesting of birdlile and for providing I h e aquatic life upon which they subsist. Further, the proposed additions to the bills would preserve the hunting rights of the public and set aside 3,400 more acres to be used for the preservation of wild life. Jim Caudwell, a visitor from Rotorua, Klamath Falls' lister city, was a guest of the chamber and presented three books about his native city to Jim Monteilh, chamber president.
