The Darty central committee held its setond plenary session in the Kremlin Hall of Con gresses, with chemical experts, party and government planners, and industry officials speaking on Khrushchev's plan, which was virtually certain of ap proval.

The employers group repre sented thousands of trucking firms across the nation, rang ing from small intra-city lines to the huge ovcr-the-road trans continental carriers. A start toward Hoffa's long sought national contract hung in the balance of the discus sions. Ever since Hoffa first ad vanced the idea of a national trucking pact he has met op position from management and many government officials who contend such an agreement would give him power to pre cipitate a national emergency by calling a strike. Chairman of TEI's negotiat ing team was (.'. G. Zwingle, vice president of Pacific lnter mountain Express. The seciai committee was authorized only last week to "attempt to negotiate" a na tional contract agreement with I lie teamsters.

Of .the $46.3 million cutback. $12 million came from the VMA 65 basic school distribution. Finance and administra tion analysts anticipate about a $1.2 million carryover from tlie fund this year which means the net reduction in state aid to lo cal schools will total $10.8 mil lion. This means the Portland school district will suffer a $1, 493,685 cut in aid which will re duce the state's grant to $7, 499,283. To put it another way, Portland school district taxpay ers will have to pay $1.79 in ad ditional property taxes for every $1,000 of true cash value of their property to make up the loss. Many districts will be much harder hit. Eugene's $555,790 loss trans lates to a $5.25 per $1,000 hike in' local taxes, Medford's $289, 747 to $5.06.
