NEW YORK IUPI1 - "The
odds are crushingly against
success in the market at this
point," says Investors Research
Co.
"It has been a ong time
since we have seen a market
that appears to be rising but
where liquidation is taking
place on an ascending scale,"
the West Coast advisory serv
ice adds. "The few stocks that
are rising and there are
about two dozen consistent
gainers cannot pull the en
tire market up by its boot
straps. The trend of the many
will ultimately determine the
trend of the few," it adds.
Clark, Dodge 4 Co. says "the
current phase of the bull mar
ket, where speculative money
is actively flowing into and out
of market leaders, suggests
that more of the same recent
excited pattern of trading is in
prospect." ,
Spear & Staff points out that
selectivity of Hie recent market
rise is exemplified in the action
of the Dow-Jones Industrial Av

advisory service notes, "just

All 14 members of the budget

dozen other legislators, to get
a running start on (lie special
session which convenes Monday.
It did not appear lawmakeis

alternate revenue programs, rig

cated 'urd agencies but agree
ment on which course might be
followvv.
The Ways and Means mem
bers today launched two days of
hearings into the governor's rec
ommended austerity program,
state revenues, and proposed
cuts in basic school support.
The Ways and Moans mem
bers, many wearing their meat
cleaver tie clasps, came to Sa
lem ahead of time at tiheir own
expense, at the request of Sen
ate President Ben Musa and
House Speaker Ckironce Bar
ton. Sen. Ward Cook, Portland,
said the committee was meet

opened when he asked "bow are
we going to go? Shall we go
along w i t h the governor, or
adopt our own plan?"
01 h e r committee mem
bers were hesitant to make any
policy decision until after the
conclusion of Z: hearings.
A major question was posed
by legislative fiscal officer Ken
neth Bragg who asked "are we
making temporary cuts, or are
we making permanent reduc
tions in the level of state serv
ice?" Finance and Administra
tion director Freeman Holmer
said the budget cuts proposed
by the governor are temporary.
He said it would have to be de
cided before the 1965 legislature
whether permanent long range
reductions should be made.
"1 expect the governor will
ask the 19S5 legislature for fur
ther reforms," Holmer com
mented. Rep. John Mosser. R-Portland
said tlie voters didn't under
stand the difference between
dedicated fund and general fund
agencies, but wanted economies
in all parts of state government.
Sen. Len Newbry, R-.Vshland.
fired back, "I oppose messing
with dedicated funds."
As the meeting began Sen.
Edward Fadeley, D - Eugene,
handed out copies of his alter
native to the governor's auster
ity program.
Fadeley called for a $10 mil
lion tobacco tax, and use of $10
million from auto license fees,
and $12 million from a one-shot
speedup of withholding tax col
lections to offset most of tlie
revenue lost by defeat of the tax
measure Oct. 15.
He also would transfer $5 mil
lion from the veterans fund, cut
capital construction $9 million,
basic school $7 million, and oth
er agencies $5 million.
It was apparent that several
other alternate plans, many
built around cither a cigarette
or sales tax, would be unveiled
within the next few days.

Teamster Boss Seeks $600 Million
Wage-Benefit Increase From Industry
WASHINGTON (UPI-Tcam-sters'
President James R. Ilol
fa expressed confidence today
that his union would win most
of the $t"0O million worth of
wage-benefit increases it seeks
from the trucking industry in a
new nationw ide contract.
Hoffa said the demands he
outlined Wednesday were not
unrealistic. He predicted the fi
nal settlement would be clo.ve
to the union's 90-cent-an-hour
package proposal.
Tlie controversial Teamsters'
chief declared he would not call
a national truck strike to en
force the demands although he
left open the possibility of "se
lective" area strikes u (he con
tract talks become deadlocked.
Hoffa said thai trucking firms
would have to raise their
freight rales to meet the un
ion's demand for a three-year
contract providing average 4.V
cent hourly pay increases for
430.000 drivers, helpers, ware
housemen, mechanics and cleri
cal workers.
Klmt In History
The Teamsters' proposal
started the Kill rolling in the
first nationwide trucking indus
try negotiations a longtime
Hoffa objective. The union now
negotiates either area-wide or
city-wide pacts for over-the-road
and local (ruck drivers
and related employes.
The pay increases sought by
tlie Teamsters are far above
tries in recent years which have
average about 7 or S cents per
hour.
crans of American foreign wars.
Commander Carlson asked lo
cal people to purchase the pop
pics in remembrance of this na
tion's servicemen who w ere dis
abled in war.
"More than 40 years have
slipped by since an earlier gen
eration of Americans put down
their gas masks and rifles and
walked free again from the
trenches of World War I," he
said.
The commander continued:
"The sacrifices of that war
and other horrible conflicts that
followed are legend among our
children, but the memory be
comes more faint. It is the na
tural tendency to forget, with
tlie passing of time, the sever
ity of the personal loss which
these wars brought to some."
"The Disabled American Vet
erans the men who were
w ounded or disabled must con
tinue to live w ith their own pri
vate losses incurred in defense
of our nation," he concluded.
The poppies will go on sale at
tlie Town and Country Shopping
Center, Kingsley Field, Eighth
and Main Streets, and at vari
ous other corners in the down
town area, the commander said.
Driver Escapes
As Auto Rolls
A Portland man escaped in
jury about 5:30 p.m. Thursday
when the car he was driving
went out of control near the
2900 block of Lakeshore Drive
and overturned in a borrow pit
on the south side of the road,
Oregon State Police have re
ported. John Robert Wagner. 1790.3
SE Mill Street, told police that
he was southbound when he ob
served a wooden post in the
middle of the road. He attempt
ed to swerve around the object
and lost control of the car, po
lice records indicate.
Damage was moderate to the
automobile.
The size of the package de
mand far exceeds President
Kennedy's suggested guidelines
for wage increases roughly 3
to 4 per rent but Hoffa has
long ago denounced the Chief
Executive's proposal as govern
ment wage-fixing.
Hoffa also announced tliat the
Teamsters would seek tighter
restrictions on "piggybacking"
or movement of truck trailers
on railroad flat cars.
Seeks Assessment
He said trucking firms would
be asked to pay $5 into Team
sters' pension funds for each
trailer moved by "piggyback."
Under tlie present contract
those firms which had used the
"piggyback" method before
1S5 were exempt from the $5
assessment.
Hoffa estimated the demands,
including a IS-cent-an-hour
wage increase during each year
of tlie 3 year pact, would cost
about S'HW.OflO for each working
day or NflO million a year.
He said lfi.onn trucking em
ployers in 48 states all but Ha
waii and Alaska would be noti
fied formally of the Teamsters'
proposal on Friday. Negotia
tions are expected to begin
later this month in Chicago.
