Tax Assessment Income T
and Consolidation Meas
Attracts Attention of
Solons.
(Dy Bruce Dennis)
SALEM, Ore, Slate Hoas?, Jan. 3)
The fourth v.ek of the session is
on. The 'big legislation is in the
hopper, namely the. t:ix a'-'Fomen
measures, the income tux measure!
and consolidation measures wiii.h
are or should be a product of tax
ation program foe what pood is con
solidation unless it reduces the ex
penses ?
It might be said that politics to a
certain extent have entered the ses
sion and thata the good intentions of
a number who hud the confidence
of His people to do nothing in a
political way but to work for the
best interests of taxpayers have
found it possible to connect up a
his political movement in the name
of doing pood to taxpayers.
This is apparent in some of the
consolidation talk that is heard. It
is apparant in the actions of some
of the members. It should not be
understood that there is any dore
to charge ui'V member with double
dealing, but tho fast iv so apparent
that along with consolidation some
see an opportunity to whet th.; po
litical axe that it can .no longer be
overlooked.
Prohibition bills aie coming in by
flocks and before we get through
down 'here we will probably have J
a -law that everyone muvh search his;
own cellar and lepoit what he finds;
to the shsiiff- It is a fact that the
session ns a body wains in ncip ui
prohibition entoici'luent, but 1 1 1 u'-l
so a face that tlie u.-ual ciailiv n.iiilmanv members-of the organization I
inconsistent person is on tap ready!
to offer the most drastic and un
workable laws.
The post terminate cou-vc in assess
ment and taxation bean this eve
nine; when public heaiinirs started in
the senate chamber which hearinirsj
will brine; out aii phases of tlie sev-
erance tax, the ir.conie tax, the re-

ablest men of the sIhio have ueen
invited to anneal' before this com

clarity over the Dennis receiving
