DELINQUENT TAX NOTICE BILL STRONG HAS SUPPORT Petitions Are Being Circulated " Throughout State for Signa tures of Voters on Measure. NEWSPAPER GRAFT SCORED Banks Herald Pays Respects Ed . itorially to Members" of Legis lature Who Sidestepped Duty. Tbi delinquent tax notice bill, which la now bein circulated throughout the different counties of the state for suffi cient signatures to place It upon the November ballot, ha received a hearty Indorsiement by the Banks Herald. -In the lue of March 2 that paper aid editorially : "The newspaper fraternity is welt rep resented thin year In candidates for of fice. Wo have no objection If they will not combine and force more delinquent tax graft on the public. ' "The law compelling- the publication of the delinouent tax list was one of the biggest graft measures passed" by the last legislature, and the measure was passed by a rising vote so no names could be recorded for ayes and nays and the guilty ones cannot be picked. which shows in itself that the dear Ieg- falatcra did not want to go on record for this piece of graft legislation. The editorial association of Oregon backed thl graft measure and condemned all who opposed it. "At the next election the people will be given a chance to vote on the ques tion whether the delinquent tax list shall be published, and It Is safe to predict that the newspapers now supporting this- graft will find themselves mighty ' lonesome when the votes are counted, for the people are going to defeat that - delinquent tax list graft. "It Is proposed to substitute notice by "mall and posting of four copies In public places, which Is qujte sufficient. "Better spend that delinquent tax graft money on public highways. It . will do more good there." Petitions for signatures, as provided by the initiative, are now in. the hands of volunteer -circulators throughout the state. These circulators have come for ward of their own motion to ask that the task of securing the legal quota of signatures In their respective counties be given them because of their deep in terest In and hearty approval of the proposed measure. - The bill proposes to repeal the exlst . Ing delinquent tax. list publication stat ute, by means of which hundreds of thousands of dollars of unnecessary ex pense has been loaded upon the tax payers of the state- ..In place of the old law, the measure ' provides that each delinquent taxpayer be notified directly by personal letter sent to him by the tax collector. , An Illustration of the effect of the measure, if adopted by the people, can be seen in Multnomah county, where the annual charge for the publication of the delinquent tax list is approximately , $12,000, while the work of notification, it If done by mall as provided In the pro ' posed measure, would cost not to ex ceed $400 or $500. 1 HONOR GUARD LEADER TO WED , i,,', ,,';; ;.:; i.; . j... ; 1 yssS.-.ji--: -iiy.'.v;rfv.: ft jj , ; ; , : , , r- y. . tr , , I s ft '-',- I I I t --ill 1 r&x'c rj:- 7?
