DINE- STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, BACK TAX S 11 PI IS IHH Law Remitting Interest is Taken Advantage of; Funding Plan Used I A considerable amount of back taxes is being paid into the sher iff's office here this month by de linquent taxpayers who are taking advantage of the opportunity cre ated by the 1933 legislature which remitted all interest on taxes de linquent for the year 1930 and theretofore. The new law, effect iv June 9, provides that interest will be resumed July 1 and back taxpayers aro seeking to clear up their obligations within this month. In Marlon county delinquent taxes date back to the 1926 roll, taxes levied for 1925 and thereto fore having been foreclosed by the county this year. The new law provides that de linquent taxpayers who have not paid 1930 taxes, or theretofore, by July 1, may then arrange to pay these taxes over a five-year period in ten equal Instalments. The delinquent tax bears interest at fiieht nAr rant a art.- t..i ? . aiiu U1J J. but the Interest charged up to June , 1333, is not included. If a payment of an instalment is not made on the due date, In addition to the interest, a penalty of two per cent of the instalment Is added. The law provides that in event three Instalments, or 30 per cent, of the delinquent taxes are not paid, the county must foreclose the property. Under the new law, taxes due in 1926, may be spread out until June 30, 1938. The law does not apply to de linquent taxes where certificates of delinquency have been issued and sold to parties other than the county court. No adjustment can be made In these certificates since legislative adjustment would con stitute an abrogation of the rights of contract. I W. PHESCOTTS Mr. and Mrs. A. W. .

HIST08 0F SCENIC PUCES H 1 Local Citizens are Greatest Source of Expenditure At Coast, Mountains Oregon's citizens themselves are the greatest source of recrea tional expenditures at the state's coast and mountain resorts, Ray Conway, manager of the Oregon State Motor association, told chamber of commerce members Monday noon. They spend more money on travel In the state and on equipment for their vacation retreats than do out-of-state tour ists. Conway urged citizens here to learn and to tell the stories be hind the scenic attractions of Ore gon. "People no longer are con tent alone to see a natural beau ty spot; they want tor know the story, the history behind the scene." Recreation should not alone be considered as a business to bring money to merchants and auto dealers, but It should be valued principally for its values to the vacationist who profits in bodily and spiritual health.

Thev ret ner vous and excited before a storm breaks; and they did the same be fore this earthquake. Another thing about an ele phant, he will not cross a shaky bridge or put his weight down on something that Isn't solid- and firm. He will test out a bridge with one foot before trusting it with his weight," said DeGropper. Tne circus Is showine now in Nevada.
