via The- Day's lews By FRANK JENKINS In Salem yesterday morning, J. francyl Howard of Albanv appeared in the Secretary of State's office to file a preliminary petition to refer the 1963 legis lature's tax measure to a vote of the people. Mr. Howard is presi dent of an organization known as the Citizen s Committee for Econ omy and Equitable Taxations. Attorney General Thornton says mis morning he will assign title for the referral measure well within the time limit. Meanwhile, there are indica tions that ANOTHER group plans to file a SECOND petition to re fer the tax increase bill. None but Howard's petition, however, had been filed wnn the secretary of state by mid-morning today. So il looks like a referendum meas ure of some sort will be put be fore the public. It's up (o the voters, therefore, to be doing some thinking as to how they will vole on it in the event that 23.186 Talid signatures are obtained on one or another of the petitions. 11 seems rather probable that that will happen. ' What to do about it? Well, there's Hamlet, the Mel ancholy Dane, hero of the most famous of Shakespeare's trage dies. He was confronted with quite a problem when he discovered that Claudius, his uncle, and Ger trude, his mother, had been re sponsible for the death of his royal father. In his famous soliloquy, he said to himself: "To do or not to do, that is the question: "Whether H is nobler in the mind to suffer "The slings and arrows of out rageous fortune. "Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, "And by opposing end them." Hamlet, you will remember, went on to ask himself whether it is better "to endure those ills we have than fly to others that we know not of." He continued: "Thus conscience does make cowards of us all; "And thus the native hue of reso lution "Is sicklied o'er with the palelas maae " 'reeman ol tne city cast of thought, "And enterprises of great pith and moment "With this regard their currents turn awry "And lose the name of action." We can ask ourselves, along with Hamlet, whether it is better, in this situation that we face, to endure those ills we have than to fly to others that we know not of. Personally I think we'd better endure the ills we have (mean ing the tax bill enacted by the recent legislature! than to fly to other ills we know not of. Who knows WHAT we might get in a reshuffle?

The kiss was the highlight of the most enthusiastic and public reunion in Irish history. UPI Telephoto JFK Hakes Freedom Plea In Ireland Speech DUBLIN i UPI '-President Ken nedy today called on the Red- dominated peoples behind t h e Iron Curtain to follow Ireland's example and never cease to struggle for freedom. The President's appeal was de livered liefore a historic joint session of the Irish parliament shortly after Soviet Premier Niki- ta Khrushchev arrived in East Bcriin and accused Kennedy of trying to play politics with the German issue. Kennedy was in good form after his flying visit to Cork, where he Float Entry Date Hears Klamath County businesses and organizations have only five days remaining to fill out an applica tion for entering floats in the Fourth of July parade sponsored by the local Jaycces. Application blanks may be obtained at the First National Bank, the U.S. Na tional Bank or the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce. The deadline is noon on Wednes day. July 3. All prospective groups must have contacted Virgil Bigby, parade committee chairman, at TU 2-3444 or TU 4 7059, or Win ston Kurth, TU 2-2301 or TU 46237, and applications have to be approved before the noon dead line. Personal invitations have not been sent out this year as in the past, therefore anyone wishing to participate must submit an ap plication. The theme of the parade is "A Holiday In Klamath County." and trophies will be given to the float that most appropriately depicts the theme, the most humorous float, and the best riding and marching unit. A sweepstakes trophy will be presented to the most outstanding float in the parade picked by a panel of three judges. Recorded music will be featured along the parade route with an nouncing stations in various loca tions along Main Street. department.

"Those who suffer beyond that wall ol sliame I saw on w'ednes day in Berlin must not despair of the future," Kennedy said. "Let them instead remember the con stancy, the faith, the endurance and the ultimate success of the Irish." His appeal to the East Euro peans to hold higher their faith in the eventual advent of freedom came after he had said that Ire land, although taking no sides in the cold war, is not neutral be tween liberty and tyranny and I know it never will be." The President called upon tlic people beyond the Berlin wall to remember the boys of County Wexford, which he visited Thurs day, who are fabled in song and story for having fought with heart and hand, to burst in twain the galling chain and free our native land." Kennedy, after paying tribute to Ireland s struggle for its own in dependence, said that at this time the world the central issue of freedom, however, is between those w ho believe in self-determin-1 ation and those in the east who would impose on others a harsh and repressive Communist sys tem. And here your nation w isely rejects the role of go-between."

Sheriff Brit ton had said that "Gallagher was being held in tlie Klamath County Jail to answer to the charge of violation of probation and was waiting action by tlie district at torney's office and our courts." The remark about Gallagher's probation was in reference to a six-month suspended sentence imposed upon the plaintiff by Judge Piper, acting for District Court Judge Robert Kerr, last Dec. 24.

TU 4-8111 No. 7180 Tkeata Two Unions Say Talks Not Making Progress PORTLAND (UPl)-Leaders of two Northwest lumber unions threatened more strikes today in lumber industry dispute that already has idled some 19,000 workers. The announcement was made after tlie International Woodwork ers of America (1WA reported no progress in contract talks with tlie "Big Six" employer group, com posed of St. Regis Paper, U.S. Plywood, Weyerhaeuser, Interna tional Paper, Crown Zcllerbach and Dayonier. 1WA Regional President Harvey Nelson told newsmen Thursday his union modified its demands on travel time for loggers during Thursday's talk. He said tlie union also rejected an employer offer concerning weekend working hours. There was no mention of wage discussions. The meeting was recessed sub ject to call by either side or by Icderal mediators. Officials of the 1WA and live Lumber and Sawmill Workers Un ion ILSWI. which also is involved in the dispute, said the two unions would work together to bring the strike to a successful conclusion. They struck St. .Regis and U.S. Plywood plants in Oregon, Wash ington and Northern California June 5 and the other four mem bers of the "Big Six" shut down in retaliation. Talks also have been recessed with the Timber Operators Coun- il, which represents some 196 firms from California to Alaska Earl Hartley, executive secre tary of the LSW, said the unions i"""""-"-"""'""" " would settle the' dispute at their I bnk. insurance com- leisure, "even if it takes all sum.
