VIYTP 1 ..There will.be thirteen measures submitted to the voters of Oregbri on the ballot in November three proposed const! tuttonaf amendments, three acts of the 1931 legislature re- lerrea.to the people, and seven initiative measures. ; The first measure to meet the. voter's eye will be an , irraMhdmeht entitled. "Taxpayer Votine Qualification Amend- meht Purpose: To permit the enactment of laws limiting to taxpayers the nght to vote upon questions of levying spe- ciar taxes or issuing public bonds. Undoubtedly the firet reaction of all taxpayera will be one of approval, feeling that it is no more than right that the citizens who have to pay the bills should be given the sole right to incur the debts. And that is the only argnmerit ot t,he proponents or the measure. But upon careful investigation the voter will' find that .there are other phases of the question to be considered before casting an affirmative vote. Ill the first nlate. the owners of rcnl and nprsnnnl nrnnortv d6"not bear the entire burden of taxation; they pass it along to the people who rent their property or buy their merchan dise. It is an accepted principle that the consumer ultimately pays the taxes. So the man who rents a house from the owner is paying taxes just as truly as the man who lives in his own house, though he is paying indirectly. Another factor to be considered is that placing limitations on voting is in direct opposition to the principle of democ racy.' The whole trend of American government has been toward giving the common citizen more voice in public af ftths, and it is only with considerable , difficulty that the :fjhchise has gradually been broadened to its present state. This proposed amendment might prove an' opening wedge 'foj; reactionary forces which could easily destroy the progress of the past fifty years. It is also well to remember that limiting the vote to (ax payers is no guarantee of protection against high taxes. .most taxpayers own only a small amount of property, and when the question of some special tax or bond issue is bf&ught up they reflect upon the great benefits to be derived therefrom and decide that their individual share of the in creased tax involved will be so small as to lie hardly notice able. So they vote "Yes." This has been the principal cause of high taxation in the past; the small taxpayers can out vote the big taxpayers. Really the best remedy for the situation is not in further limitation of the vote, but in the relief of property from excessive taxation by means of greater taxation of incomes and intangibles, thus spreading the burdens more evenly over the population of the state. This program is alreadv under way in Oregon and, with other measures which are designed to protect the property owner, will make this pro posed taxpayer voting qualification amendment unnecessary. are Invited to visit Richardson's Art and Gilt Shop and see the beautiful II UK.
