Students Supporting Ballot Measure No. 1 Over 200 University students will canvass residential areas in Eugene tonight, passing out in formation on Ballot Measure No. 1, the Bond Measure for High er Education. Merritt Fink, ASUO vice - pres ident. who is co-ordinating t h e door to door campaign, told The Emerald Tuesday his committee is operating on the assumption that many voters do not under stand what is involved in the bond measure. “So we are trying to get as much information out to the vot ers as possible,” Fink stated. Students who will be distrib uting material concerning the bond election should meet at 6 p.m. today in the SU turn around. Information and maps of areas to be covered will be provided at that time. Transportation is still need ed. Anyone who has not al ready volunteered and is inter ested in participating in the project should report to the turn-around at 6 p.m. In addition to the door-to door campaign, information will be mailed to some parents of University students within the state. “The ASUO doesn’t have enough money to cover all the parents,” Fink commented. “But we are going to try to reach as many parents as possible in the Portland area and Southern Ore gon since those were the areas where the vote against the tax referral last October was the heaviest. Fink has already appeared on several radio programs speaking in support of the Bond Measure and he and his committee have been urging students to write home to their parents asking them to vote in favor of it. Representatives Disgruntled Monday, four State Represen tatives, Richard Kennedy and Richard Eyemann, both Demo crats from Lane county, and Re publicans Victor Atiyeh, Wash ington county, and Kessler Can non of Crook, Deschutes and Jef ferson counties, joined in con demning the explanation of Bal lot No. 1 that appears in the Oregon Voters’ Pamphlet. SOVIET UNION Monthly Pictorial from the Soviet Union English or Russian or Spanish A fascinating trip through the USSR One year subscription—$2.50 Imported Publications^ Prod. 1 Union Square, N.Y.C. 3 (G) They said they were shocked at the explanation, which they said implies that the whole $30 million bond issue will be re paid through a state-wide prop erty tax. The last state wide property tax was levied in 1940 according to the legislators. A number of bond issues have been on the bal lot since then, and almost all have identical language referring to the support of the issues through a property tax. Last Resort The legislators stated that a property tax for bond retirement would occur only after all the revenues from income tax, liquor sales, and other income sources were exhausted. If people are persauded to vote against the bond measure because of the wording of the explana tion in the voters pamphlet, lo cal property taxes “will undoubt edly be increased,” they said. Currently State agencies face a “difficult and complex prob lem" in planning their 1965-67 budgets, according to Freeman Holmer, state director of finance and administration. He said that failure of the $30 million higher education bond issue at Friday’s election could have a great impact on the new budget.
