Bigelow in Favor Of Changing Tax Assessment Plan Commissioner of Public Affairs C. A. Bigelow favors a radical reform in the present tax assessment methods as ap plied in Portland, and which are na tionally practiced at present. Bigelow insists that the practice of differentiat ing between tax valuation and actual valuation of real and persona! property is ridculous and compels the taxpayer and the assessor to commit, perjury each year as his property is assessed for taxes. "Instead of placing the valuation of property at one tenth its actual value and then fixing a tax of 10 mills as an examphs I contend that the sensible thing to do Is to fix the actual value of the property and reduce the tax levy to one mill," Bigelow said. "In that manner the government gets the same revenue and relieves the taxpayers of the annual commitment of perjury." Commissioner Bigelow has been close ly questioning property owners appear ing before the council of late in an attempt to fix the difference between the tax assessor's valuation and the actual valuation of their property, in sisting that the- tax valuation should be the basis for the purchase of- all property bought by the city. Bigelow Intimated that as soon as he had a plan now under consideration well for mulated he would ask- for legislation to compel the- literal valuation of prop erty on tax rolls. s7? ?)

Inc llth at Burnside St. Payrolls and Prosperity Oregon needs more and larger payrolls. Prosperity is a concrete condition, not an abstract thought. It is created by the opportunity for work, the investment of money in new and enlargement of old projects, the development of trade, -the meeting of producer and con sumer, the exchange of labor for purchasing power. The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company, representing a payroll of approximately 3,000,000 per year in Oregon, has reached a point beyond which it cannot go with its present income. It has asked for higher rates which will enable it to maintain its service, meet its payroll obligations and earn a reasonable return Upon its invest ment in Oregon. If it obtains this it can carry on its construction pro gram,' offer more work in Oregon, enlarge its payrolls and take its proper part in the progress of this state. J If it cannot secure adequate rates it must limit its expansion in every way, abandon its plans for extensions and lay off its construction crews. The rates asked for will not work a hardship uponany individual; they represent but a small increase per station over present rates, but in the aggregate would permit the telephone company to continue to fully serve the public, carry out its plans for the development of Oregon and do its part in creating and maintaining the prosperity which is essential to this state!
