It was originally sent to the editor of the Akron, Ohio, Beacon Journal: “To the editor: "I was told in 1964 that If I voted for Barry Goldwater that taxes would go up and there would be more war in Vlet- nam. “They were right—I voted' for Goldwater and taxes have gone up and there Is more war In Vietnam.’’ LET A SPECIALIST ★ Pack Your Wheels.... 99c ★ Reline Your Brakes.... 19.95 (Plus Parts) ★ Grind Your Valves...ea. 25c A FEW SCENES, snapped here and there in the Journal office late last week and early this week, as the plant bussed with builders, plumbers electricians, teachers and learners.

Staff Photos Il's Your Law Always Alimony Rose was a successful bus- lness woman, owning a dress shop and earning about $7,000 a year. She and her husband, Ben, had no children. Ben was a bookkeeper who earned about $5,000 a year. Rose sued f for divorce on grounds of cruel and Inhuman treatment and asked for ali mony, and attorney fees. Ben counter-claimed for divorce a- galnst Rose. Rose asked for alimony, al though her income was larger than Ben's, because she claimed she had a right to alimony regardless of Ben’s clrcum- stances. Do you believe that Rose Is entitled to alimony, eventhough she Is making a substantial Income? The courts have held that alimony Is not a matter of right and when a wife has the ability to earn a living It Is not the policy of the law to give her a perpetual lien on her divorced husband’s future Income. The allowance of al imony Is determined by the ne cessities of the wife and the financial ability of the husband. In the divorce Rose did not prove that she would not con tinue to earn a good living In her shop. The court held that an award of alimony cannot be based on a conjectural pos sibility of a future change in her circumstances. Therefore, Rose was unable to obtain ali mony though both she and Ben were awarded divorces. (Oregon lawyers offer this column as a public service.

There are several advantages t0 the Joint account with the right of survivorship. It Is convenient. Either party can transact business on the ac count. If one person becomes sick, the other can make depos its or withdrawals. If It Is a checking account, either party can write checks. When one deposits money, the other Immediately acquires certain rights In the account, and can withdraw the money in full, even before the death of the party who deposited It. Even though such accounts are a popular device for trans ferring money at death, they are not a means of avoiding Inheritance or estate taxes. Both the federal government and the state of Oregon pro vide for the taxing of money transferred In this manner. In fact, though there never can be any tax savings from the use of a joint bank account, there can be tax losses, in some circumstances, because of pe culiarities of tax law with re spect to joint tenancy bank accounts. If the amount of money in such a joint account Is sub stantial, It usually Is wise to check to find out what the tax consequences will be If one of Miichell Àuto & Truck Repair 711 Park Ave — Nyssa — Ph. 372-3427 Game Kill... 4-H Group Meets Members of the Buena Vista 4-H club met recently with Shirley Cleaver presiding.

Higher educatleu, welfare and state Institutions aie recommenaou at the level of $265 million, leaving less than $109 million for all other state programs. Salary adjust ments will take a significant chunk of the Increase, so it cannot be said that the level of services Is being drastically enhanced. But bear In mind, too, that the McCall budget, prepared under the direction of John Mosser, Director of Finance and Administration, has largely shown any resem blance of "fat’’ from the Hat field budget. Which brings us back to the basic question: Where can this budget be pruned to provide anv more tax relief from the General Fund? “WHILE WE’RE ON THE SUB JECT ....let’s not forget that the State of Oregon provides some additional revenue to local units of government. The cig arette tax, approved last May, will add almost $14 million to the property tax relied ac count; plus an e<|ual amount in direct grants to cities and counties for expenditure with out strings attached. Liquor profits, licenses and privilege taxes will add another $13 million to the coffers of cities and counties.

There’« a atory about strap per who stofiped In a town In Georgia and asked where he could find the famous hogs that were supposed to live nearby. The townsfolk told him not to waste his time - that no one ever had or ever would trap those hogs. After he Insisted, they told him the way. A few weeks later, the trap per returned with hla wagon piled high with trussed-up hogs. The Incredulous townsfolk asked how he did it. “Simple,” said the trapper. “All 1 did was to throw some corn In a clearing. At first, the hogs would not touch the corn, but after a few days some of the young ’uns snatched an ear or two. In a few more days, the other hogs figured they had better get their share and soon all the hogs were eating the corn they got for nothing. “They soon gave up rooting for themselves. I then started to build my trap around the corn. Only a few boards a day so they wouldn’t notice the change. Then, I ;>ut on the door and the next day while they were all Inside eating my free corn, 1 slammed the door. They didn’t know what was hapfienlng until it was all over.” The trapi>er summed up: “1 can trap anything that de|>ends on me for a handout.” HINTS ABOUT BOILS Don’t squeeze or puncture bolls; this may serve only to drive the Infection deeper. —WE SPECIALIZE IN— Automatic Transmissions, and Do Tune-ups, Overhaul Engines, and Install Glass The Tender Trap 100,000 Sheep...
