BERGS SKI & SPORT SHOP 11th & Mil aa4 13th aai Lawrarc* [ Lottery ' bill killed r SALEM (Special) — The House Wednesday rejected a bill which, upon voter approval, would amend the Oregon constitution to establish a state-operated lottery and legalize charitable lotteries in Oregon. Proponents of the measure (HJR 60) said during floor debate that a state lottery would channel about $20 million into the state general fund. They said that contrary to opposing arguments, studies in the six states which presently have lotteries reveal that middle and upper income persons are far more likely to purchase lottery tickets than poor persons. The proponents also argued that church and civic organizations should be allowed i to sponsor bingo games and raffles as a way of raising funds. Opponents of the measure argued that lotteries do hurt poor persons who buy tickets “hoping to strike it rich” when they should use the money to feed their children. They called lot teries “regressive taxes” not based on the ability to pay. Proponents urged House members to vote in favor of the measure so that Oregon voters would be able to make the final decision during a referendum election. The measure, however, received only 27 favorable votes ;o°o TH& SSS835OP’s 1/2 yearly Shoe %Haidal Sale w°° 4* 0P0C All color»t «tylea A siz 6siii£g& ' °^o-o TS..__ i^JP1 -at S3 30 E.
