"'"' f When the people of Oregon enacted a state income tax in 1923 they did so because they believed it was just and right. They believed it would reduce taxes.. At that time they had plenty of theory and few facts to guide them. i They repealed that law in li)24 .because it was a proved hard times breeder.' It cost the people of Oregon the staggering total of $40,00000 to learn that economic conditions absolutely beyond their control are such in Oregon that a state income tax drives out industries, keeps others from coming in, re duces payrolls,' makes it harder to obtain faim loans, and strikes at every home in country, village, town and city. ...... . " . But our state is again in turmoil because a determined effort is being made to force I practically this same law upon the state this, year. Our- pp! i pie are being asked to ignore plain fundamental economic 1 facts. They are being asked to. enact a law on a "jyuessB-i The surest thing about democracy is its Vitality."

The Observer is particularly grate ful to tho many daily newspapers of Western Oregon who havo given ear to our plea und have passed it on to their thousands of readers. Oregon, und a new state income tax will do it again. Oregon is full of meritorious projects that should be' developed. Big public improvements are necessary to open up our state, to bring the farms closer to their markets and! cities closer to their bases of supplies. Wealth untold lies, idle in natural resources awaiting the magic touch of dc-i yelopment capital to bring it to the tax rolls, to create noW:j payrolls, new activities and better livelihood for our people.

Since the last income tax law was repealed millions of dot lars have been loaned in Oregon by outside financial concerns',' at low rates, on long time, and with repayment privileges! never known to Oregon before. If a new income tax law is! enacted, and this discrimination aimed directly at these in vestors, rates will go up, much of the unbailed funds will be withdrawn, and our people will again face tho inescapable ; ELECTION DAY TOMORROW After one of the most bitter and dirty state campaigns' in the state's history, the people of Oregon will go to the polls 'fact Oreiron needs canital. but canital does not need (Won tomorrow and settle all controversy and difference of opin- ... ion-with pencils and ballots. . tm , t;. r,'. ..m. if .; r i..; i.
