' Iuella Clay Carson, president of Mills college, spoke before the Pro fessional Women's league yesterday afternoon following the regular month ly luncheon of the club id the Tyrolean room of the Benson hotel. Miss Car son made her tajkj an 'appeal for the higher education, of women along the lines of science and art. Especially was this sPlea given to the teachers and educatdra of the high schools and. colleges, of the west to single out th girls that come under their notice who have great gifts along special lines- combined with the very necessary ability and willingness to work in the furthering of that talent or gift of genius. ,.::-'" ; It was urged that the western woman might, through her heritage of pioneer courage and fortitude, develop in this western coast country an unique, place for women in the higher ' realms of science and civilisation; that tvoman might take her place In the field of higher education along the lines of art and science as a teacher and worker. ; : r ' ' ' Miee Carson made a 'forceful argu Indian Recently Appoint edrRegister of The Treasury Is Friend of Portland Man Houston B.

Psy- :'Wlth sll Its drawbacks, the general property system in Oregon has at least one good point in its. favor. -Land and the improvements upon land are re quired to bs separately shoo in the valuations on the assessment roll, and have been "go shown since 1874. tr This reform ;waa Introduced in New : York only a few years ago, and some big eastern -cities, notably Philadelphia, are now fighting for 4. but cannot, get It.' After .experience with Oregon's taxa tion laws as affecting Multnomah countyextending ever two and a quar ter years, County Assessor Henry JE. Reed has at least this mucH to Say In favor of Oregon's tax laws. Thi state ment he made yesterday in closing an address to students i of Reed college on the subject of taxation 4 ,.7 , - In discussing i sources of revenue in th. city of Portland, Mr. Reed pointed out that but 5.34 per: cent of the .rever nue of the municipality is derived from liquor licenses, ; as compared with 59 J per cent derived from taxes, 20.74 per cent from water rentals, 1. S3 per cent from general licenses and JL2.27 per cent from all other sources.. ; " . Ho DedacUoae Made. . ""o deduction from aasessment or taxation is allowed in Oregon on ac count of indebtedness," said Mr. Reed. "Beginning in j early territorial days, deductions were allowed for, bona tide indebtedness within the state. .' This practice' was abolished with the assess ment of 1898. awhile it was in effect by. authority of law, upward of $50, 000,000 1 of property escaped Us Just share of taxation rn this state. Of this amount, $150,000,000 was in Multnomah that thus went tax free wh- reaA estate.'!. - '.(';--;,: - . '. "Sources of irevenue are always In teresting In any discussion of taxation. Beginning with the state government, the Monmouth Normal school and state road fund, the total expenses to which they were subject for the year 1914. was fixed, at $4,919,819, when the tax commission made its computation based upon the 191S assessment. Re ceipts from so'urcea other ' than (.. were -estimated for the year 1914 at ! $449,116, which, added to unexpended balances made $754,819, $4,165,000 Xoi be levied upon Ithe people. in the form of taxes. As the greater part of the unexpended balances had previously been collected as taxes, it may safely be said that over 91 iper cent of tha $4,919,819 came from taxes. The coun- ty of Multnomah working to a budget of $1,585,233 for general road purposes-, for 1915, . will j require nearly 90 per cent from taxes, and, the remainder from ether sources. I ;. -f , , Revenues Are Oiscusssd. . '4 Allied to sources of revenue is the final disposition of the tax money.. in me iyear 1914. there was levied in Oregon, upon the.1913 assessment, the 1 enormous sum of $23,083,000 for taxes, or a errand average rate of nearly $2.43 per $100 of assessed -value, on a state ' valuation of $954,282,374. Of the $23.- ! 083.000: thus lwiod. th . .t.to. I Monmouth Normal school and the ' state road fund called for 18 per cent; i county i government ,18.6. Per cent;, schools; 28.3 per cent; county roads 13.2 1 per cent; city and . town government 16.8 per cent; and miscellaneous fi.l per cent. . k . . "As 4tarly as can be computed, be cause of the fact that the public" serv ice assessments as made and appor- 1 tioned ! cover both real and personal property in the aggregate, real estate. which includes improvements on land1 comprises 83.5 per cent of all assessed ' property in Oregon and 81.2 per cent in; Multnomah county. Land alone is 71 1 per cent of the real estate of Oregon j and 77.5 per cent of the real estate of Multnomah county. Land alone is 59 per cent of all assessed property in , Oregon and nearly 63 per cent of all i assessed property In Multnomah coun ty. I , ' - x. 7 - .7; ' f Sills Are Selected.

Bills naving the" sin- gle tax in view have been rejected by.J the people, as have tlie classification : measure submitted in 1910, 1912 and 1914. An anomaly of the 1914-ele:-Uon was the overwhelming defeat ol. measures which were thought to pr- take of the single tax, and the equal ly overwhelming defeat : of measure the declared object of whfch was to make the single tax impossible. , "Classification of property, especial ly intangible, for taxation is receiving consideration throughoutthe country. . A report submitted to the : National f Tax conference lat year rccommende 1 cne taxation or all Intaugibles, stocks, bonds, i mortgages and notes on' the same basis, but expressed the opinion that a state should entirely exempt its own vtstate and municipal bonds. !

The report advanced the opinion that , the rate under present circum stances ought not to be in excess of 1 to 2 mills per annum, or $1.50 or $2 on a security of a market value of $1000. I Present rates -on this kind "of property, which classify it are: Connec ticut, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island, 4 mills; Maryland, 4 mills; Iowa, 5 mills; Wisconsin one naif to 3 mills." Mr..
