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

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.
