Objections to the delay in surfacing the road near Ufciah are voiced by the Pendleton East Oiegoninn with the com ment that the people of Oregon expect roads for their money, not alibis. That's what everyone thinks when a pet stretch of highway is under consideration but one of the peculiar things about highway building is inability of the highway commission to buy two million dollars worth of construction for only one million. It all takes time. And when there nre delays The Observer finds there are Usually many good reasons for them when an investigation is really made. Each year The Observer receives more and more compli ments on the work of Mis. Heth Bailey McLean in the Cook ing School. Surely the community is fortunate that such n competent and charming home economist can be brought here for these sessions. U is not only new recipes but new methods, new ideas that every interested housewife appre ciates. The wonder is that any one can cook, demonstrate foods, and carry on an instructive, entertaining lecture at the same time as expertly as docs Mrs. McLean. The school was an uii'iualified success and The Observer is very appre ciative of Mis. McLean's work and of the co-operation of business firms who helped make the school possible. (iOINt; KASY ON TAX DELINQUENTS In Deschutes county the effort to meet owners of delin quent tax property half way and keep the property on the rolls by canceling some of the past due tax bill is not working out satisfactorily. At any rate there seems to be a tendency on the part of more nronertv owners to let their Ihviw hnpnmn delinquent in the hope that they won't have to nav them at 1,11. Some individuals have defended this practice of handling delinquent tax accounts, saying that it is similar to business policies which argue that it is better to collect ten cents on the dollar than to collect nothing at all. That is true in business but it is a practice that cannot be followed in tax matters because there is no chance to control future credit and the same delinquent may easily impose upon his county creditor again. The man who is unable to pay taxes on his property and the man who is unable to pay other just debts are both in the same boat. They must forfeit their property to satisfy those obligations. The county, which is the creditor In the first case, and the business man, who is a frequent creditor in the second, do not want to take that property except as a last resort. It is usually depreciated in value, expensive to handle, lacking in income producing qualities. The business man prefers to settle on any other reasonable basis if possible and sec to it that the delinquent is given no more credit until his ability to pay is firmly established again. Hut the county can't take such precautions. It must take title to the property or be forever bothered with delin quent tax accumulations. If a settlement is reached, it can not prevent the former properly owner who didn't pay his taxes from becoming a property owner again and repealing the performance. And the fact that he got off easy one time encourages the delinquent to try again. There are many inequalities in property taxation but we don't want them extended so that the conscientious property owner pays his taxes promptly while his neighbor is allowed special privileges through inability to pay. Any public policy of that nature will eventually destroy the whole structure of property ownership and taxation. Taking title to property to satisfy delinquent taxes is not profitable for the county but it is protective. It is the only way the county can keep property owners on a reasonable basis of equality.
