CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT—Referred to the people by the Legislative Assembly. LIMITATION OF FOUR PER CENT STATE INDEBTEDNESS FOR PERMANENT ROADS.— Purpose: To amend Section 7 of Article XI of the Constitution of the State of Oregon so as to permit the creation of debtsand liabilities including previous debts ana liabilities for the purpose of building and maintaining permanent roads to the amount of four per cent of the assessed valuation of all thé property in the State of Oregon, instead of two per cent as now provided by law. PROPERTY TAX-NO DIRECT TAX NO INCREASE IN AUTO LICENSE FEES NO INCREASE OF GASOLINE TAX I Keep these three facts in mind. The present auto license fees and gasoline tax will pay both the principal and interest on all the bonds B under this amendment, and will yield an annual surplus besides for other | state highway work. No additional taxation of any kind. Constantly increasing loads by motor truck present new problems in road construction. The road today must have elasticity to withstand the impact of heavy traffic. If the road is rigid it cannot be durable. Elasticity and dur- ability are the qualities that make roads permanent when paved with B § | g g g | BITULITHIC | | Warren Bros. Co. | | Oregon must have sufficient Highway Funds to match Federal apportion­ B ments or Oregon cannot get the benefit of Federal money for Oregon Roads. Increasing this constitutional limit is a necessity. Unless limit is increased, B FEDERAL FUNDS MUST BE MATCHED either state roads cannot be completed for many, many years, or must be finished by direct property taxation. This measure averts direct property tax for state highways and makes early completion possible. Let’s get the roads built now. Income from Present Sources Sufficient to Pay Principal and Interest. The fact that revenues from auto license fees and gasoline tax, without increase of present rates, will be ample to pay both principal and interest on these bonds, is ciearly set forth by official figures in the State Pamph et, mailed to every registered vrter. Refer ti State Pamph’et for verification. Examine the table carefully. It proves that, no property tax is required and th it present rates for auto license fees and gas tax will redeem principal ana interest and yie'd surplus besides.
