Thursday, Feb. 1 1:15 Hl-Lo club, with Mrs. and defining it as trying to get the most feathers out Of the goose with the fewest squawks, Senator Hess gave an Interesting talk. Ho reviewed the history of the sales tax, pointing out that three attempts haw been made to place a general sales tax in the U. S. He said the attempt In 1932 was brought about by the lowering of the income and inheritance taxes In previous years which caused a depletion of treasury funds. His belief Is that the government should obtain Its Income from In direct taxes. Concerning the Oregon snlei tax, he satd it was originally plnnued to relieve personal property and Improve the state's credit. One tax whs passed by the legislature and then voted down four to ono by the people. Another Soles tax Is now before the peoplo of the state. Senator Hess strongly opposed the tax, contending that such a revenue producer would greatly retard sales, would be of too discriminating a na ture to win general favor, and dis respects the power and ability to pay. He said that, the finest tax is one that is based on power and ability to pay. Concerning the effect a sales tax would have on the state's credit, he expressed the opinion It would hin- 'dcr rather than help, sinco bank loans could not be based so easily on estimated returns from such a tax that had no "hard property" sup port. Discusscti Money Mr, Qalser opened his talk with a review of the use of shells beads, other kinds of money, the barter sys tem, etc. He defined moneys as a means of exchange, and said that it gradually has become a matter of credit. To Illustrate this point ho said tha; although only five billion dollars of money actually existed in the U. 8., there were 941,000,000.000 on deposit. Concerning the devaluation of gold. he said the administration' theory is to devaluate the gold dollar to about 60 per cent of Its present valuo In an effort to stabilize the American dollar with that of foreign countries, and put American prices ou a com petitive level with them.
