Lunch Will Be Served at Noon Auctioneers J. E. (Olie) Cooper, Roseburg, Oregon George Hunt' Myrtle Point, Oregon Taxation Up To Electors. Forum Told Interim Committee, At Local Forum, Points Out Costs Of Pending Plans Senator Howard Belton, chair man of the state interim tax study commission,1 speaking before a forum gathering in the Hotel Ump- Sua Wednesday afternoon, stressed lot in Oregon taxation rests primarily with the people. The legislature cannot pass a tax bill with an emergency clause. Every measure may be referred to the people through the initiative and referendum. He called atten tion to the fact the voters have said "no" on 52 and "yes" on only HI measures calling for additional taxes. Representative Giles French of Moro, referring to the proposed in crease to $80 a year per census child and the soldiers' bonus bill, said these measures, If approved by the voters in November, will cost the public about $17,000,000 a year. The basic school bill, he said, would cost the taxpayers about $12,000,000 annually. He contended that, while state support has tended to equalize wealth distribution, it has not equalized educational op portunities. He advocated drastic reductions in school expenditures, but stated the decision as to whether the people want to pay additional taxes is up to them. Bonus And Welfare As for tne World War II bonus bill, it would cost the state $90,000, 000, or an average of about $5,000, 000 a year, including interest, for a period of 20 years. This too, he said Lis up to the voters. Mrs. Louise rtumpnrey spoxe oi the initiative measure to sustain the Dunn bill, which would elimi nate relative assistance and the reuirement that property of wel fare recipients upon their death revert to the state in proportion to the amount paid to them. She quoted statistics to show that after the legislature provided these restrictions, a great number of names were withdrawn from the relief rolls. . Public welfare, she said, is the third largest state ex- Eense. Douglas county alone will ave spent, from state, federal and county funds, over $700,000 for wel fare tor the year ending June 30. Representative John Sells spoke on the proposal to prohibit the state from levying a property tax. Un der this plan, the state would operate only with the funds avail- ame trom otner sources. The trend, Sell stated, is away from property tax. The measure would leave real property to the local levels for taxation. This is not a new plan, he said, because 15 states do not levy property taxes. Oregon has levied, but has not had to collect, a property tax since 1940, The tax has been offset by income taxes, .t, . : . ; Judge Earl Day spoke of the in consistency ' of assessment of property and the collection of taxes, which varies in the 36 counties. He personally advocates that these two agencies be taken out of politics and have the head appointed, pos sibly by the county courts with qualifications set by the state. Business Tax Feasible Representative French next dis cussed the proposed business tax. which he believes would be more equitable than the present method of assessing inventories. The busi ness tax, for example, would equal ize taxes paid by business men on inventories of farm equipment, usually very low at the end of the year, with Inventories of a dry goods store, which must be stable. He gave as an example also live- Prizes Awarded In Dairy Carton Competition An interesting display of en tr nts and prizewinners in tne recent Umpqua dairy carton con test is on exhibit at the Emery Insurance company, 222 N. Jack son street. Nearly 200 entries were received in the contest which attracted countywide interest. Grand prize winner was a toy train fashioned by Mrs. Lorraine Long, route 3, box 330. Prizes were also given for the oldest and youngest entry. Many of the contestants entered similar ideas and the judges made an effort to select the best of these for the prize winners. Ideas ranged from toys, frozen food con tainers, salt and pepper shakers to kindling for picnics and camp ing trips, Oregon Primary Vote Of 50 Percent Predicted (Continued from page One) Latourette, Portland, former Dem ocratic national committeeman.

Tooze, Portland; and Robert F. Maguire, Portland, former war crimes trial judge In Germany. The two tOD candidates will run off in November, unless one wins a clear majority tomorrow.

' Canyonville School Holds Open House For Patrons A large' number of parents and patrons of the Canyonville school district attended the "Open House" at the school Wednesday night. Regular classes were conducted in all the grades from 8 to 9:30. This proved to be most interest ing to all parents. It was the first event of this kind in Canyonville. The open house took the place of the final meeting of the year of the local Parent-Teacher association. Dillard Days stock, which must usually be car ried through one taxing period, con trasted witn sneep or poultry, which is sold out before the taxing period. Senator Belton, in summing up, stated that the finances of the state are sound today, but the state could very easily become bankrupt if the people vote unsound tax measures. The stale is constantly drawine on J its reserve funds, and will be show- jus a ucuviL uy uie cuu ui llie blenlum,' unless additional taxes are available. Lengthy discussion followed the forum talks. School representatives posed the problem of what would the schools do to finance education without state support. They de clared the burden on the local dis tricts was now too great. Various tax measures, including the sales tax were interjected into the discussion. . . By ROSA HEINBACH Marv Jeanette Hult spent Satur day and Sunday in Roseburg as the guests at the W. O.
