Have you that scarab with you?" "I carry it always," I said simp- lyy for he had so uncannily im pressed me with the sense of men caing danger at the time ho had presed the scarah. into my hand, that I had never been separated from the queer-looking thing since. ,' i Tht's good,? he- returned In a relieved tone. ? "Remember what I told you- if you're ever in' a jam, where things look queer, try flashing that on any man in the crowd and demand that it be taken to the "Big Tangerine." ' TIT not forget," I replied as he paused evidently waiting for my ; assurance. ' " ' "See. that you. don't,"' he re torted. And then he bent j low in a farewell bow in keeping with with the character of the South American grandee he was imper sonatlng so cleverly, and stalked away. i THE ORDEAL BEGINS. How he managed to hide his conspicuous person on the statipn platform or in the train, I do not know. That he was on the train I was sure, and the knowledge heartened me somewhat on the seemingly interminable trip in. the dimly lighted coach of the jerk water trail) leading to the village of Caldwin. . ' The three reporters wlio had interviewed nxe in tbe Sag Harbor farmhouse' had seats near to me, but contented themselves with the perfunctory ' greeting they had given me on the Long Island train But! I knew they would be keenly watching the meeting between my husband and I, and when the train drew up at Caldwin and descend ing to the! platform I saw Dicky advancing toward me I took a firm grip upon! my nerves and will power for the ordeal of greeting him. . 1 -mi-: (To be .continued) DEBATE TU HT ! 11 IS SELECTED Southworth and Redding Names ito Represent Will ' ! amette on Platform Ward -Southworth, of Salem, and Charles Redding, of Ft. Dodge Iowa, were! announced yesterday morning by Coach Horace G. Rahskopf as the debate team which will meet the speakers from thesfiniyersity of West Virginia on the ; Waller Hall platform next Saturday evening. Mr. South- worth is a 2 year Willamette let terman in debate arid was a mem ber of the team which toured the east Is a two years ago. Mr. Redding speaker ot tremedous ."ability a. most outstandinghigh with; school! debate record in the state ot Iowa. 1 "r'. :'l ' "' ' The: debate Is attracting a great deal; of attention due to the fact thatjif is in the nature of an Inter- sectional contest. As far as it is known. , th West Virginian's are making: one of the longest debate trips' ever attempted 'by an Ameri can institution. The contest will be staged under the single expert Judge system. The name of the Judge has not been announced. The question to be discussed is one: dealing1 with the plank in Sen-ato-LaFollette's recent president ial platform n regard to the lixnlr tatfen jof the softer of, the Su preme Court by jglyicg congress the ! power' to 'override the decl sies e thai body declaring acts of. congress unconstitutional.

The act would not tax corporat ions as that 'method results in double taxation, but would tax the . real earning of the corpora tion to the individual and require the corporation to file a return, as it does with the federal govern ment, and to show its, earning in Oregon and its stockholders with their holdings, with all informa tion at the source. The act would allow all usual deductions, except property taxes paid in Oregon, which, would be deductable by neither partnership. fiuciary corporation nor individ ual, but, the individual taxpayer would be entitled to apply all the Oregon property tax paid by him, and. his pro rata of any Oregon property tax paid by any partner ship, corporation or trust jffom credit against the income, tax as sessed. It would also follow a reciprocal offset to a non-resident taxpayer taxed on income in the state in which be resides provid ing bis state allowed residents of this state a similar credit. This law- as proposed would cost not to exceed three end one half per cent of the net collections annually to put into effect and ad minister. The administration' features would be similar to the old law but with weak features strength ened and would charge the tax commissioner solely with its ad ministration with a board of ap peal consisting of the Attorney General and the state tax commis sion. .V ;' '. It would provide for two depu ty commissioners to be appointed by the commissioners with the us ual provisions for agents, inspect ors and clerical help. The net collections to reduce: the state levy and the state levy ! to be limited to one mill unless special ly authorized by the people. One mill is left for emergency. No state levy would be needed. The payment of all the tax to be made to the commissioner with a peri odic accounting to the treasurer and a balance at all times for re funds, i : I The plan would produce rather more than $2,000,000. You say how can it when it allows as an offset the entire Oregon property tax paid. But it does not quite do that. It is framed so that un til a business earns more than eight percent on its taxable In vestment, that business can only, pay the property ", tax, as levied, but when the earnings of that business exceed eight per cent of its taxable investment, the Income tax begins to take off bis profit. But It goes much farther than that. It recognizes the "fact that the man with an income,., but with no investment !inf taxable property, either personally or through a corporation or partner ship, derives the same benefits from our schools, roads and insti tutions and the same; protection from out government as the prop erty owner. ; But the property pwner is building up j our state while the receiver, of income from other sources of Oregon ! is living off our resources and giving noth ing in return.' j i ! 1 This law makes htm ; pay his proper proportion, no more and no less. No law can be abolutely perfect, but what fault can any reasonable person find with a law that not only takes double tax burden from the overtaxed prop erty and measures a ' man's tax by his ability to pay. i . . Money cannot be legislated into can be pocket but ! legislation can. be . formed , that does not at tempt to take money 1 from an empty pocket. ! From the income tax statistics. it is definitely shown i that there is sufficient income within tbe State of Oregon, that Is not pay- ins Ha just portion of tax, to make this law produce rather more than two million dollars to the state. - I Inociues Under $ 5,(M)0 ........ . ;i ....... : Over $ 5.000 and under $10,000 Over $10,000 and under $15,000 Over $15,000 and under $20,000 Over $20,000 and under $25,000 Over $25,000 and up Total water February, $1.98: March. $1.97; northern spring.

Yon say the rates are. high, ten to, thirty per cenJL, But Are they, in4 fl.oes the rate. teaHy matter? Oregon mnst raise forty million ,T With our present plan, even though a man's tax takes ninety per cent of his income for the year, 'or a sum much greater than his Income J yet that forty million must be raised. I With this plan it. can take no inore than 25 per cent of oy majL's n.et income uatu thatman has a net income of over ninety-five" thousand dollars and pays no property tax in Ore gon whatsoever, and Oregon has no taxpayers of this description Neither are they high on the lowes rates of income. Exemp tions should be 750 for a single person. Why? Because $750 is an income sufficient to. maintain ' a j single person' and a single person , with a net ; income of f 100.0 who pays no property tax should pay his state $25 annually and can well afford: to do so., A single person wno nas a net income or $1000, but jwho by thrift and self denial i has accumulated $5000 worth of property, tax valued at sixty per cent, taxed at forjy mills. must pay $120 in taxes. Why penalize thrift or fine the man who is building up your commun ity? Is It not better to encourage th community builder by taking. some of the burden from him and putting it on the man who Is not? The rate is not high on the man with an income of five thousand dollars.; The Income tax on that amount, with no property offset allowing him $$000 exemption as a married, tnan. is but $300. The country builder who has aJnet in come of $5i)00 would have an in vestment "In . his community . of $10,000 taxable property and be paying more than $100. taxes. Can we afford to penalize the best.citr izen we have by saying, through our tax. system, because, you nave made ; our i community a better place to live in. because you have built up our schools and churches and made I living safe through governmental functions, you must pay all the cost of mattttaing those institutions? When the late income tax law was passed isome, farsighted legis lators tried to have a real prop erty tax offset inserted and en deavered tp have corporations ex empted., But having no statistics available, they could not show that such a plan would produce sufficient tax. The cry was also raised against exemptions of cor porations with the mistaken idea that corporations an.d individuals are separate entitles in fact as well as in law. Such Is not the case. A corporation is simply an artificial person made up of sever al individuals, and when you tax mo luuivmuai ucoa income, you taxi the corporation. Business can not stand double taxation nor do we want to discourage corpora tions. Without combinations of capital no j large undertaking , is possible. "Vere it not fori corpor ations we tarould still be (reading by tallow icandles and traveling In horse drawn vehicles over cor jiuroy roads. IL The rate is not so high on a man wun & taxaoie income Of $50,000, hfs income tax would be but $11,150 even if he had no property tax offset. A man with invested capital of $500,000 giv ing it all his time and attention. would f deem himself fortunate' could be clear $50,000 on his in vestment, yet his property tax would be forty mills on sixty per cent of $500,000. or $12,000. $850 greater even with the income tax law in effect, on the Commun ity builder-than pn the man who lives off the community and mak- es no improvement in It. You ask jwhy the graduated tax and not th flat rate? The answer is this. ; As incomes Increase so does the ability of- the - recipient Increase to 'invest In and build -up his state; and If he finds 'that on account of! taxation it. pays him better to do so, he too, will be come a builder. . This tax will produce more than $2,000,000! which conclusion is reached through the following cal culation. Oregon has, under the exemptions! quoted, L e., $75,0 for a single person and $2000 for the head of a -family, the following taxable incomes of the character named. ; Xo of 42,000 1,341 84 ,.' 40 50 i Amount.

This $6.i00,000 Is conservative. The prdpetty tax L offset " against that would be less, than $4,300, 00. That may sound unreason able but. after long study and care ful computation I know those fig ures are i not (as wrong- and the balance will ; be - la favor of the amount of tax produced rather than against It. .'Under the old law 147 corpor ations with" a "net ' IncoKnev , 7; 000,000 paid $300,000 income tax but did .not pay. that amount of property-a tax- I That income, through, the recipients of it, would pyi;ne,arly $l,DO0,O0Oincqme tax after aktqall prQperty tax off sets, -i -l : ; j .... jadivlduals with , a ast lacoma- of $50,000,000, who paid $500. 000 and their property tax offset wonld' be less ' than $ 1,50 0,0 (3 1 0. ; : Th individual who suffered un des the old law will find this proposed measure covers every ob jection that could be made.

' I have lived in. a community where there were ' beaver for the past twenty-four years and last winter and this winter have been trying my hand at -trapping them Like most of the other fellows who tried it I was a green hand at the game and had, a lop to learn. ' .:,-.,-. -, . During the trapping season of 1923 and "1934 ,. I icaught- seven beaver, five of them out of ; one big colony which I know had been there for twenty-four years, there were still beaver left there when the trapping season closed. After the close ot the trapping season the tenant en the land tore out the dam and was able to keep it out and as a result I will venture to say that he had at leapt fifteen acres of good pasture ' land all spring, summer and fall which bad not been out of water in the past eighteen years.- During the present trapping season I have not been able to find a sign of beaver anywhere near that old beaver house which is the largest one I have ever seen. Where did those beaver which were left go to? : From another beaver house which I know has been there for twenty years or more I caught a beaver last inter and this winter also.-! -' - "'--:' ; v : :: , -'" A "friend 'of mine and I trap in a close vicinity to each other. To date he has not caught a beaver this j winter although he caught some last winter and there are beaver signs where he is trapping now.1 I know of old beaver trap pers from Canada and from other states of this country who have been1 trapping bere the past two winters and are unable to catch our Oregon beaver. Beaver are about as intelligent as the ordinary run of human be ings.' If two or three are taken, from one colony in quick succes sion ; the other members of " the colony will move pronto. From the 20th of last November until January 25th I was not able to find a fresh beaver sign on my trapping grounds.' Since the 8th of this month I have been seeing fresh signs there and have caught one 56 pound! beaver and 'one coming two year old. Are the beavers anywhere,' near extermin ated? ' Let's, see. v During the 1923 and 1924 seas on I did not catch a kitten or coming two year old beaver. .My friend who traps oh part of the same water with roe did not catch a kitten and caught one coming to year old." To .date this winter I have caught six beavers, one a coming two year old accldently caught a kitten on a muskrat set. Where ha.ve all the beaver kittens raised in the spring of 1923 and 15)24 gone to.? . We have not caught them out of our beaver water. Waters which were. Infest ed with beaver; two years ago are still infested and small lakes and creeks which were' not! infested two years- ago are today- infested. Is the beaver a nuisance or not? Let's see.
