The repeated difficulties in'thls
state in passing an Income tax,
which in 19 3 S is considered such
a popular tax bearing more heav
ily, as it does,' on the well-to-do,
should have forewarned sales tax
proponents that their child was
doomed to die. It is exceedingly
doubtful if in these days any tax
could be passed by plebescite, no
matter how meritorious and ne
cessary it was. Taxes are not im
posed from year to year by popu
lar vote; the bulk of the taxes are
levied by small boards like the
county court, or .the school board,
or the city council, or the port
commissions and the public can
only protest at a budget meeting;
the tax is not subject to referen
dum. Taxes that "go over" best
are veiled. Every cigarette smo
ker, every playing card user, ev
ery movie goer, every insurance
policy holder, every bank check
user, every water and every light
and power user pays a sales tax.
And on the major Item of gasoline
the sales tax in Oregon Is more
federal and state combined
than the entire annual revenue
proposed from the two per cent
gross sales tax.

does not augur well for the polit
ical future of the governor.. He
espoused the tax and held firm to
his leadership. It must be noticed
that his one-time collaborator and
appointee, Rufus Holman, sniffed
the political wind months before
the election and kicked the pro
posed tax down the' cellar. So did
the equally ambitious Ray "W.
Gill, state grange master, who
conducted almost a holy crusade
against the tax. at the same time
working ardently for the oleo
margarine sales tax which was
obliterated, although not' as cruel
ly as the general sales levy.
Charles Thomas Is even more
pleased than Gill and Holman
with election returns which show

unfriendly to public power. The

to $2350.
Palmer indicated the engineer
