The People's Power league submits negative argument advising the peo ple to vote against thia proposed amendment. "This amendment repudiates the American principle of lawmaking and government by a majority," states the.,negative argument. "It gives to one more than one third of those who vote power for all time to reject and veto an important change in the pres ent tax and assessment laws of Ore son.
