Federal Tax is
$77 Per Capita
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19 (AP)
An analysis of the national tax
picture revealing an average year
ly burden on every citisen of
$77.53, was made public today by
house ways and means committee
experts In preparation for steps
toward eliminating some of the
32 cases of overlapping state and
I federal taxation.
17 Measures are Introduced;
Laws Affecting Cities,
Small Loans, Asked
. Irrigation districts, cities, small
loan3 and trucks were included
among subjects considered in 17
new bills Introduced to the state
house of representatives Thurs
day. Perhaps most sensational at
first glance was the bill sent in by
Representative Lynch and Sen
ator Upton to cancel the claim of
the state against irrigation dis
tricts "for Interest on bonds here
tofore paid." If passed, officials of
the state engineer's office esti
mated, Oregon will not collect
more than $2,000,000 still due la
irrigation development interest
bonds.
Actual loss of revenue how
ever, It was explained, will not re
sult from passage of the bill. The
measure was Introduced as part
of a program of refinancing Irri
gation districts. Collections on the
debts dne can never be made, re
gardless of passage of the bill, of
ficials said.
Four measures, bills 87 to 90,
were thrown into the house hop
per as League of Oregon Cities
sponsored proposals. Assessments,
refunding of securities, and def
inition of street Improvements
were considered. The fourth meas
ure would give power for Issuance
of tax anticipation warrants to a
maturing bond prior to collection
of taxes.
Truck Bills In
Loading of debtors in small au
tomobile loans transactions with
exorbitant rates of interest was
hit in a bill by Rep. W. L. Dick
son and Senators Hess and Dick
son. Not more than $500 should
be loaned to any one person at an
interest rate fixed at one per cent
a month, according to the meas
ure. The first of what is expected to
be a series of freight truck and
bus measures was introduced by
M. A. Lynch, Deschutes, former
state highway commissioner.
The bill would repeal the en
tire motor transportation act now
in effect. It would transfer activ
ities in common carrier fee col
lestlons back to the state utilities
commission. The measure called
for reclassification of common
carriers and would change the
present fee collection system to a
ton-mile basis.
Other matters brought before
attention of the house Included
final reading and passage of the
senate Joint memorial by Senators
Goss and Spaulding urging the
national congress to take immedi
ate action to prohibit Importation
of foreign goods. The measure
now is before the governor. Three
bills slated for final passage were
held up for further consideration.
A house Joint memorial sub
mitted by Carle Abrams of Mar
lon county would eliminate a
present yearly drain of more than
a million dollars diverted from
Oregon to the national treasury.
Abrams asked that the federal
government remove fts tax on
gasoline.
The national congress, Abrams
said, has many means of raising
revenue. Heretofore,, he declared,
the gasoline tax was exclusively a
state's method of raising revenue
and at present is the only way
that a majority of the states can
fund puhlle roads and indebted
, ness.

ment of matters "which seem to
us to lie wholly within the pro

of the executive branch of the
state government.
The senate recommendation al
so discussed the emergencies be
fore the legislature:
"We believe that the people
of Oregon expect us to devote
the limited time at our disposal
in formulating a constructive
program, of economy, taxation
and relief. It Is also our hope
that with these matters fairly
met, we may adjourn at the ear
liest possible date."
Cessation of official disputes
was advised :
"We trust that the members
of the board of control will re
cognise that it Is their duty, as
well as ours, to meet these prob
lems promptly and effectively,
and they will, for the time being
at least, put aside any personal
differences which may exist be
tween them, so that they also
may devote their entire time and
energy In attempting to formu
late remediea for the distressing
condition in which our people
find themselves."

at HALF the usual price of
other quality antiseptics!
TODAY the makers of Vicks
VapoRub present a new antisep
tic .. . Vkks Voratone Antiseptic. No
extravagant claims are made for it. It
is limply the best oral antiseptic Vicks
Chemists could produce. And they
were aided by the chemists, bacteri
ologists, and pharmacologists of our
16 allied organizations. ..in America,
in England, and in Germany.
They examined the whole field of
oral antiseptics. Some they found were
too weak . . . a few were far too strong
for regular use in the mouth . . .most
were rery good . . . but dl were much
too expensive.
Effective ... and Saf$
So they produced a halanccd antisep
tic... mild enough to be used daily
. wtdsoutitx) delicate mernbranes...
strong enough to do everything an
oral antiseptic can and should do.
You can use Vicks Antiseptic for all
the customary uses . . . and use it in
your customary way.
And Vkks Antiseptic has this ad
ditional unique advantage . , . Born in
a depression year, it is priced accord
ingly. Large lO-oz. bottle ... usual
75 value . . . only 35.
5 Million Trial Bottles
Of course, the only real proof of its
economy and its quality is an ac
tual trial in your own home. To fur
nish this proof, we have produced fiva
millioo trial bottles, which we arc
supplying to druggists everywhere be
low cost. Each bottle contains 1
ounces -a usual 25 value. The price,

jail voiuraiir
Declaring a 0-day sentence he
was given for stealing sheep was
"supposed to cover the whole
thing", Norman Mellis, Turner
youth, yesterday entered a plea of
not guilty to charge of stealing a
radio. Whereupon the circuit
judge allowed the boy to go on
his own recognizance pending In
vestigation. Mellis was indicted by the
grand Jury for stealing a radio
from the home of Thurlow W.
Smith, teacher in the Turner
schools. At about the same time
the radio was allegedly stolen, he
was also accused of larceny of
two sheep from a ranch at Tur
ner, and was given CO days from
justlee court here on this count.
Incidentally, Mellis did a Jail
boomerang himself a few days
ago. He had finished serving the
6 0-day sentence, and as there was
apparently nothing about to in
dicate that he should still be un
der surveillance, one of the Jail
deputies released him.
Bat before many hours Mellis
himself was back to say he
thought there was some slip-up.
Whereupon he went back to Jail
until the appearance la court yes
terday. In the charge at the sher
iffs office, warrant for Mellis fol
lowing the indictment had been
overlooked.

SPIK'S BILL
Senator Spauldlng's bill to re
peal those sections of the Oregon
laws authorizing the state high
way department to construct, im
prove, pave and repair streets and
roads in towns and cities, where
such roads and streets are a link
in a state highway, will be oppos
ed by the League of Oregon Cities,
it was announced here yesterday.
William M. Briggs, past presi
dent of the league and now In
charge of the municipal service
bureau here, declared that the
city streets which are used as state
highways, originally were con
structed at the cost of the prop
erty owners and would last indef
initely were it not for the increas
ed highway traffic. He said it was
only fair that the state should as
sist th municipalities In the con
traction and maintenance of such
links In state highways.
"We expect to make a deter
mined fight against the Spaulding
bill." Briggs declared in a state
ment issued here yesterday.
