COOS BAY (UPI) "The worst' rise in property taxes in Oregon historv" could result next year ifj the 1963 legislature's S60 million j tax package is rejected, House; Speaker Clarence Barton warned today. Barton addressed a luncneon meeting of the Oregon Newspaper Publishers Association here. Reading from a prepared text, he said rejection of the revenue Dackaee could lead to "a state property tax levy next year ifj there is not revenue to pay bond i interest and retirement, because! law provides for an automatic I state property levy for this pur-1 pose whenever the costs cannot j be paid out oi tne money on hand." Barton discussed the recent leg islative session, and told the pub lishers "from some of the things I've heen reading, I think some; record-straightening would be in; order." I Longer Stssions Possible i Barton predicted future sessions could be even longer than the: record 141-days this year "be-1 cause the business of this state! has become so great." He said artificial limits on j length would not result in better i government. Barton, a resident of nearby Coquillc, outlined in detail the tax program and cited problems faced by lawmakers as they trimmed "fat" from budget requests. ' "Legislatures should be known for what they don't do as well as for what they do," Barton said. ; "One thing this past session did not do was enact a sales tax." He blasted the excessive lobby-; ing that took place on the work-' men's compensation measure; which- the House defeated, and predicted the bill could come to life again if a special session is held this foil. Referral Eyed ' "Maybe this (the pressure for: enactment of a new workmen's compensation bill) explains some of the agitation for referral of the income tax bill," Barton said. He cited as "noteworthy" sev eral things the legislature did not do, and said "we didn't pass the Liberty Amendment, or silly con stitutional amendments which would deny the courts jurisdic tion in aoporiionment. "We didn't take the housewives trading stamps away from them. "We didn't tax the churches. "We didn't deny the right to do business on Sunday." He added: ''Unfortunately, we did not pass on to the people the revised constitution. The House rose to its duty by approving the referral. The Senate refused. More will be heard on this issue." Barton asked: "What is a legis lature for?" He answered: "This last one started business at 10 a.m. Jan. 14. and was expected to have a S426 million business operating by 10:30. It took us until June 3, but it was done in good order at a cost of $405 million instead of the governor's suggested $423 million." Roseburg Man Held Lloyd George King, 40, of 1528 SE Pine St., was arrested by Rose burg City Police officers Thursday nisht on a warrant from the Doug las County Sheriff's Department charging him with obtaining money under false pretenses.
