Western Women Urged to Develop Their
Own Atmosphere of Learning and Culture
Luelia Clay Carson, President of Mills College, Brings 'Message
of Cheer Along Lines of Higher Education in the
Realms of Science and in Art. '
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 ' ' '

which is reached through the medium
of club activities arid is. felt as a
mighty power" through the , federated
clubs of the country. She is a pioneer
in her own field as an educator, and

the need of a stimulating enthusiasm
and encouragement to aid the younger

i The eastern artiBt, musician, educa
tor, who comes from an old and estab
lished civilization, it was pointed out,
is always heard bewailing the lacjt of
"atmosphere" for their pursuits out
here in "the wihl and wooUy west."
Miss Carson's advice would be for the
children of the west to set to work
to create that : "atmosphere,'' or better
still, an atmosphere (one of their own
peculiar development) of higher edu
cation and culture. , J ;
These big things for woman can be
accomplished by the few who must be
discovered , and encouraged, ana
through the" medium of the college
alumnae and club organizations, the
way for their following the pursuits
must be found, she said. -

:'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;

"Several tffortii. to get a way from!
Uie general -. property tax have been-
made m Orecoh in recent years, but
without success. 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.
! Present State jOtven.
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

"It ia a- glorious' country all the

such a. trip brings one so close to the

"A new road is partly finished

In Portland what Is.te take the
place of the saloon as a! rececatlon 1
center when the state prohibition law
goe into effect next year?
Thfs was the subject of j dlflfusKlon
at yesterday's luncheon of the Oregon
Civic league. In a general, way the
conclusion wss reached that a com
munity center should be established
and maintained by the municipality 1
and that the matter should at once
be made an object of public agitation.
City Commissioner Brewster wss
authorised to appoint a special com
mittee to study tha subject and pre
rsent some concrete plan for consld

Bwett suggested that twe municipal
recreation centers be established, one
on the east side and tho other on the
west side. These shtfuld cmbrere
reading rooms, frames and I baths in '
charge of trained social workers.!
He estimated that the isxpense of
maintaining these centers by the city
would be $28,000 per ycsr.j ThIs-jWes
based 'on the cost the past year of
keeping up the old Troy laundry,
whtoh was approximately $10,000.
He urged the great necessity of
such a step and 1 the need of immedi
ately calling It to publlo attention.
Judge W N. Oatens, wpeaklng on '
the. value of a recreation center-In the:
prevention of crime, saldt that the
prohibition law would only eliminate
those crimes for which I drunkeneas
is responsible, lie advocated munict

taken away, he added, but . the innate
desire of humanity to dance can not.
The great trouble with amusements,
he said, was the fact, that they were
professionalized and commercialized.
As the result of being commercialized
they were allowed to converge to
