Fire Sweeps Through Rectory al Capistrano

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Cal R = A predaWn fire swept through the rectory attached to the 137year-old San Juan Capistrano Mission Saturday
 Fire fighters saved the famed mission and it's ancient chapel but the flames destroyed many reli- gious artifacts and dusty volumes of historical interest. Authorities described their worth as inesti- mable.
 The California State Forestry Division calculated damage 10 the rectory, built in the 1950s, at S25, ,00O.
 The blaze started in the library of the tWo=story rectory, which is attached to the chapel. The flames destroyed the library and heavily damaged the rest of the tWostory structure.
 But the rest of the wor1d-re- noWned tourist spot was virtually unchanged, Forestry Division of ficers reported.
 Cause of the fire wasn't imme- diatelv determined
 Capistrano one of the best restored of the California missions = is famed for the legend that migrating swallows always return from the south on St. Joseph's Day, March 19. After nesting here they head back south again each fall.
 The mission is in the town of San Juan Capistrano, 70 miles south of Los Angeles.

Coffee Exporters
Adopt Guide Lines

NEW YORK CITY-(CNS)-A
United Nations coffee conference
adopted international guide lines for
the industry at 1-day meeting here
September %.
The agreement is designed to in
crease the purchasing power of cof-
e-producing nations by maintaining
stable prices and raising coffee con-
sumption. Since the economy of many
Latin American nations is tied to this
one crop, over-production has had
both political and economic roper
cussions.
Delegates from IL countries
reached preliminary agreement here
August 25 and set up an international
coffee council in London. Each will
be represented. The conference fixed
coffee quotas for SO exporting coun-
tries for the next five years. Brazil
received the highest quota-about
two-fifths of world output.

ST million from the Bureau of Land
Management as the states share of
resource development earnings.
Montana received 1927, 36O.77.
Mineral leases and permits pro-
duced $1,084, s42.73, with the bal

The grazing and timber sale money
covers the entire 1862 fiscal year.

Coop Leader
Doesn't -SuvV'
Montana COP

HELENA-(C NS)-Montana Re-
publicans decided to make co-opera-
tive taxation an issue this year. The
state platform adopted here last
summer, reads:
eve believe in fair and equal treat
ment of all forms of business enter
prise. We support and defend the
right of co-operatives to do business
in Montana. However, we believe
that co-operatives have now grown
in sufficient stature that they should
no longer be granted special income
tax advantages, but should now as
sumo their fair share of the cost of
government"
Jerry Voorhis, the Cooperative
Leagues executive director. point
ed out in Chicago that co-ops have
special income tax advantage
and are paying their fair share of
the cost of government. In many
areas co-ops pay the highest prop
erty tax, he said.
Voorhis said he failed to see how
any political party in farm state
could in good conscience support such
a twisted" concept of coop taxes.
He pointed out that both 1860 presi-
Dental candidates supported co-ops.
Both national platforms have sup
ported co-ops for many years, Voor-
his said. The last five Republican
Presidents are on record in their
support of co-ops, he added.
EDITORS THOUGHT: Former s.
term Calf. Cong. Voorhis may be
out of touch with Montana's brand
Of modern Republicanism" In their
eyes, the late Robert A. Taft, because
ne supported federal aid to educa-
lion, was suspect, and of course,
knows that the COPS rul-
ing faction in Montana concur with
the Birchites in looking upon ex-
Pres. Eisenhower as radical be-
cause of his continuing staunch sup
port for the United Nations and for
eign aid. Some of them even look
at their most honored of
elder statesmen, Herbert Hoover, be-
cause he approved a very limited
of public power development.
Teddy Roosevelt, being a distant cou-
lin of Franklin, is rarely mentioned
n most Montana Republican circles.

would be marketed at Bonneville
Power Administration rates, which
are substantially less than those

Reports filed with the Federal
Power Commission by power COM
panies show that last year revenue
per kilowatt hour sold for resi-
Dental or domestic use by the Mon
tana Power Company was 2.35
cents. This is more thon double
the LIS cents received by Port
land General Electric Company.
1t is almost three times the go
cents received by the municipal
system in Eugene, Oregon, almost
four times the 81 cents received
by the City of McMinnville, an
other Oregon municipal. 1t is al
most half again as much as was
received by the Idaho Power Com
pany (1.63 cents) and California
Pacific Utilities Company (1.69
cents).
Some companies are more respon-
sive to the needs of local ratepayers
than distant stockholders. Thus, more
fortunate consumers outside Mon
tana can use much more electricity
and still pay less than Empeeco rate
payers.

The Bozeman-Livingston taxoram;
performances were as much a sur
prise to Democratic Senators John
(Luke) McKeon Deer LODGE and
Arnold Rieder (Jefferson), as to
others in attendance.
McKeon, who is chairman of the
state Demo legislative campaign COM
mittee, said:
While sthese people seem to
want to sell the old line of con-
servatism" they "are terribly con-
fused about how to do it.
"They actually patted President
Kennedy and Rep. Arnold Olsen
on the back while condemning
Cong. Jim Battin on the problem
of automation."
The Deer Lodge Senator said the
taxorama panel put its stamp of ap-
prevail on solving the problems of
by retraining workers in
accordance with Kennedy's plan.
And, he continued, "the biggest
of all came when they lit
orally kicked the present and past

Another question that caused dis
comfort at the speakers podium,
wanted to know why majority of
the sponsoring organizations of tax
Drama had gone on record for the
proposed GIMP merger-a proposal
which, if given Interstate Commerce
Commission approval, will eliminate
an estimated 800 jobs in Livingston
and the loss of more than $2.5 mil
lion annual payroll to that rail CEN
ter. The banker chairman of the
meeting slipped neatly out from
under his fellow tax-rams by point
ing out that HIS association, the
Montana Bankers, had taken no &C
ton on the proposal.
Yet another questioner wanted to
know if there are any representative
of organized labor connected with
taxorama, and if not, why not. Speak
ers were unaware of any blue collar
representation, but couldn't answer
the Hwhy mott part of the question.
