BROOKINGS-HARBOR PILOT, BROOKINGS, OREGON
World’s Best Climate
A LEADER SPEAKS
A red-headed young fireball
stood in the marble halls of Ore-
gon's capitol Friday and mapped
a moral route for government.
Lis audience was Gov. Doug
las McKay, state officials and the
august joint assembled legisla
tors memoral ¡zing Abraham Lin
coln.
All were deeply impressed with
thp address by the young man,
Paul C. Smith, editor and gen-
< raj manager of San Francisco
Chronicle. lie is rated as one of
thi great editors of the day.
It was not his first visit tn the
capitol. On that first visit 20
years ago he slept in the park,
under a rhododendron bush, as
he lacked cash for lodging.
He said in speaking of the
state of humanity, "man no can
eliminate himself from the globe,
but at the same time stands on
the threshold of the greatest civ-
ilization
conceived.” The
bomb, he declared, "is the least
important aspect of atomic pow-
cr. The dangerous thing is the
detinator, which is explosive hu
man behaviorism.’ Typical of be
havior, he listed promotions of
class war, attempts to punish po-
liticai enemiei and
to
yield event at a trallie intersec-
I ion.
1 n
the evening at a Lincoln
dinner he admonished sad-
Republicans to put more
t «me to evaluating practical prin-
; and less time in manipu-
lations of personal interests.
The governor is of the opinion
that the more important state
problems should have the green!
light and be considered first. He!
has a special message prepared
which he will deliver to the legis
lature if the house taxation com-;
mittee does not show some action
this week. This committee is the
only one that can pass on tax-
creating measures. Such bills
must originate in the house. The
governor had expressed a desire
to ke* p out of the legislature’s
business, but he said, "Now is the!
time something has to be done.” j
On the 36th day of this session
there had been 690 bills, resolu
tions and memorials introduced( •
with 64 passed by both houses and
36 of them signed by the gover-
nor. Nearly all of the legislation
passed so far has been or com-
paratively minor import a noe.
The 1947 session had 1060 bills
and other measures, with the ses
sion lasting for a record of 83
days.
TAX DOCTORS STYMIED
Besides many huge problems of
finance the house taxation com-
mittee has 26 bills including those
providing for repeal of the with
holding tax, eliminating with
holding tax on wages of agricul
tural and domestic workers earn
ing less than $50 a month; a SC
tax on businesses operating in
Oregon and also in other states;
tax on theatres.

and athletic contests; timber land
to be assessed by state tax com
mission inslead of county asses
sor; a L* of \<7f gross receipts on
business; placing tax on pinball
machines, etc., that federal in
come taxes shall not be deduct
ible from state income tax pay
ments; a 2G tax on cigarettes,
license dealers, fix minimum sal
es price; placing corporate ex
cist» tax on telephone companies,
public utilities, etc.

posed at a recent meeting of the
American Bar association and
was approved in principle by the
western regional conference of
the council of state governments.
A bill authorizing the state to
to co-operate with other western
states in the plan has been in
troduced in the legislature.
The states have different ways
of handling women prisoners.
California, with some 300 wom
en prisoners, has a prison for
them exclusively at Tehachapi,
and has been trying to get the
government to take it over.
The plan would be effective
when ratified by California and
two or more of the states of
Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Mon
tana, Nevada, New Mexico, Ore
gon, Utah, Wyoming and Wash
ington.
