Describing taxation as the biggest

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.
