THE TAX SITUATION
The sales tax has been beaten, and
only time will tell whether the de
feat will prove beneficial or detri
mental to the country as a whole.
Without doubt many vital Oregon In
dustries would have been hit. If the
sales tax had been accepted. It re
mains to be seen, however, whether
or not substitute measures will be
worse than the original.
Already It Is proposed to put excise
, taxes on gasoline, tobacco, automo
biles and numerous other articles.
Each Industry affected Is bound to
protest that It Is being d esc rl minuted
against, and many of these objec
tions undoubtedly will be valid.
A federal tax on gasoline, for In
stance, would place an unreasonable
burden on this commodity. Virtually
all states already tax gasoline. In
some states this tax Is as high as 7
cents a gallon. Oregon Imposes a 4
cent tax on motor fuel. A federal
gas tax on top of those already Im
posed by states would be a blow to
motorists the nation over. For many
It might mean the difference between
operating their cars or Junking them,
and the states lose money on every
car that Is forced off the highways,

SPEARS RESIGNS POST
EUGENE, Ore., Mar. 30 UP) Hugh
Rosson, graduate manager of Univer
sity of Oregon, announced today that
Oregon will proceed immediately to
select a football coach to succeed Dr.
Clarence W. Spears who has resigned
to take the coaching job at Univer
sity of Wisconsin. Rosson received
Spears' resignation today.
"The University of Oregon will pro
ceed Immediately with the selection
of a football coach, so as not to de
lay spring practice," Rosson an
nounced, "Di. Spears' decision to leave Ore
gon came suddenly, with the meet
ing In Portland Tuesday night. It
came after we thought he would stay
and. of course, we have not yet be
gun negotiations for a new coach.
"We feei that our prospects for
next year are excellent and there will
be no delay in naming the new
coach."
There was' no Judication as to
who may be under consideration for
the Job.
Spears' resignation followed repeat
ed assertions that he had decided to j
remain at Oregon, and frequent de
nials that he was to accept the Wis
consin offer. His resignation Is ef
fective immediately. Although his
contract still had two years to go, he
was not held to its terms. The coach
said he was leaving Oregon "with sin
cere regrets." "I have spent two
very pleasant years here," he said,
"and the boys here are the finest I
have ever encountered."
Dr. Spears' Oregon contract called
for a salary of $11,500 a year, part
of which was for his work as phys
ical Instructor and as physician in
the infirmary.
He expects to be at Wisconsin ln
time for spring training.

possible for the first time a tire that
never wears smooth. They're a patented
feature of Seiberling Air-Cooled tires. They form
