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.

There was a knock at the door and
Cherry hufiied to open It.
Dixie Shannon stood In the hall
tray In dripping raincoat, galoshes
and limp felt hat. "Look at me!" she
moaned. "My permanent 's ruined!
I had It put in only a week ago. Did
you ever see auch a sight? I couldn't
get a taxi and I had to wait hours
for a cor. rnx simply soaking!"
. "You certainly are!" Cherry agreed.
"Come In and get that wet coat off."
Dixie struggled with the clumsy
galoshes, "alight as well have le.t
these at home." she grumbled.
"Holes In both heels. Oh what
day this Has been! What a day!"
Cherry took the wet raincoat and
spread it over a chair. Raindrops
trickled in a little stream from
Dixie's hat. The brown hair that
had been waved "permanently" a
week before was 4mdeed a sorry
sight. At one side of her fare ft
hung down Jonger than the other
and was almost straight. The part
that hnd been protected from the
moisture friezed outlandish I y.

"Better, eel into dry clothes.'
Cherry suggested. "HI see If I can ' i

"You lamb! Will you really?" '
"Tea; but you'll have to take a
hot bath first and put on some-!

Dixie reached for her coat nd !
"I'll be right back." she nrora- ! a

stopped. "But I forgot Dan will be J
coming" j j
"He's having dinner down town -
tonight." Cherry told her. "Slip !
Into a bathrobe, Dixie, and come -
down and eat with me. - Every-' !
thing's ready and I was dreading I
the meal alone." j I
"Olve me 10 minutes and I'll be i

It was a little more than that be- i
ton Dixie returned. She pushed the 1 1
