THE STATESMAN PUBLISHING CO. ' CHARLES A. SPRAGUE, President Member of The Associated Press The Associated Press U exclusively entitled to. the use for publication of all news dispatches credited to it or not otherwise credited in this newspaper. Income Tax Diversion "Referendum' measures are those which have been approved by the legislature and thereafter attacked by petition. "Initiative" measures are those proposed by individuals, or more often, groups outside the legislature; they have not , endured that body's critical and more or less practiced scrutiny. This is a .distinction pointed out here in the past; to what degree it is recog nized by the voters, we have no way of know ing. Our point is that initiative measures de-. serve, for this reason, closer study on the part "7 of the "layman-legislators" who seal their fate I at the polls. , ' '; On the November 3 ballot there is only one initiative measure: -"Bill distributing surplus funds to school districts, reducing taxes there in." It provides that all money received, from state income taxes in excess of $7,750,000 -snail be-distributed to public school districts and union high school districts in proportion to the number of days of actual school attendance in public schools by pupils residing in each of said 1 districts and to non-high school districts upon the same basis for all pupils for whom they pay tuition to standard public high, schools; requiring that money received by any. such school district from this scource shall be fully applied to reduce the taxes to be levied by such district." As in the case of the fish bill, there are some things about this measure as you will present ly see on which we lack sufficient informa tion; but on this bill we are ready to express our individual opinion without waiting to have those cleared up. Our opinion was in fact ex pressed many weeks ago. The bill should be defeated. : " ."' -', :;,' ' ' If for no other reason, it should be defeated because the legislature is quite likely, at the 1943 session or at any subsequent session, to re duce or otherwise alter the income tax rates, furthermore, predicting for any given year the income tax revenue is largely a matter of guess work. It fluctuates radically. School districts' -receipts from this course would fluctuate still more radically since they would get only the surplus, if any. Next .y ear they might receive ten million dollars; five years hence, not a dime. It would be that uncertain; thus though it is desirable that new sources for school revenue other than property taxes be provided, this source under this formula is not a sensible solution- . :' r; : .v And though school districts' property taxes may, if the ballot title is to be trusted, be re duced under this bill, it will necessitate a return to the levying of a state property tax for the income tax has eliminated state property taxes in excess of nine million dollars; if the state is " cut off at the pockety t $7,750,000, there la no alternative except td--levy jie difference , against property." y'-y:: Vr'v . Butthere seems to be endless difference of opinion as to whether the bill does guarantee, - as the ballot title declares, that "money received by any such school district from this source shall be fully applied to reduce the taxes levied by such district. i' ; 1; ,-; Oregon Voter insists that "it at once increase property tax by re-loading all of the 2-mill ele mentary school levy onto property as an added burden, and in addition authorizes every school district to budget the expected. additional rev enue without reducing property tax." "f , Bend Bulletin and some other ' newspapers . hold the same view, basing it upon the last sen tence in the measure .which provides that re ceipts from income tax surplus revenue "shaH not impair the basis already established for computing the levies permitted tinder the limi tation imposed by the constitution." . That language refers to the constitutional 6 per cent limitation. ; But there is another in terpretation, though it isn't much more com- - plimentary to the bill. Oregon Business & Tax Research recently quoted the opinion of Carl Davidson, former tax commission attorney, that "the receipts need not be, under the terms of the bill, applied to reduce the amount which may be lawfully levied under the 6 per cent limitation . . ." But OB&TR on its own hook asserts that on the contrary, this language merely proposes' to preserve a school district's tax base over an indefinite period even though that base was not used but in so proposing, it also proposes to amend, by simple statute, the state constitution. That of course is unconsti tutional. V 'y- If the bill permits districts to levy the usual amount of taxes regardless of the income tax "windfall," there's a new burden on taxpayers. If it doesn't, districts will get no relief though property taxpayers may. This issue ought by all means to be cleared up before the election. But either way, it is. a bad bill and should be defeated. . . -yy , ' Milk Subsidy It was just a local story in New" York; the press wires didnt carry it out here; anyway we didn't see it. But it's highly significant just the same.; Briefly, the federal government through the Commodity Credit corporation proposed to buy NewUVork City's entire fluid milk supply from the wholesale distributors at $3.30 a hundred weight and then sell it to the distributors at $3.10. The government's loss of 20 cents would amount to about $15,000 a day. But it would enable the, distributors to resell the milk to the public at 12 cents a quart, cash and carry handling it at one cent a quart, since the whole sale price would be IT cents. Thus MA dairyman would get more for his milk but the public would pay no more. Slick. Of. course it would cost Uncle Sam a lot of money if he put the same plan into operation wherever ' there was a similar problem, which would certainly . include western Oregon. For that matter, why limit it to milk? Why not extend it to every necessary commodity on i which there is a tiht pinch between produc- tion cost and the ceiling price? - ."" ! Because it is jurt;a:local story in New York we'll have to waicSi the New York papers for progress reports; but the day after it was an ! ' nounced, the distributors seemed all against it because at the same tizns iLcfiered them "no "No Yavor Sway$ Us; No fear Shall Atce From First Statesman. March 28, 1891 IssasMSMSMMisswSBtesasa reel alallea relief, it would tie them up more tightly to the ceiling price. And the Herald Tribune pointed out that a milk price relief plan, curtailing dis tribution costs by making deliveries only once in two days, , was proposed months ago and; blocked by the teamsters' union. So, you see, all the possible alternatives haven't been tried. This is a subsidy, even though the problem sought to be solved is a bit different from those for which subsidies usually are proposed. But getting back to first principles, what is the problem? The high cost of living inflation. This would hold down one item of the cost of living, in so far as the consumer's pocket was concerned. But the difference would just coma out of Uncle Sam's pocket and Where's the gain? Only six cents out of the government's ex pended dollar goes for, non-war purposes, the president reports. But if we'd spent six cents. Back in 1935 we spent about seven cents on na tional defense and more than 40 cents on "re covery and relief." If those figures had just been reversed the immediate benefits would have been about the same and we'd be a lot bet ter off now. - ' ' ' News Behind the News By PAUL MALLON v V (Distribution try Kins features Syndics ta, tne. Koproi auction ta who) or to part strictly prohibited.) WASHINGTON, Oct 20 The inflation repres ser, Justice Jimmy Byrnes, is going' about bis job quietly, without much of a staff. ' He says all he needs is a place to hang his hat The White House has given him a rack for it, and the other departments lend him what help he calls for. The technique he is applying against salaries has taken somewhat the same easy form. His hold-down step against sal aries is aimed to stop collective Increases, but to allow individ ual advances. While he went beneath the surface of his law from con-, gress to prevent collective in creases in even the smallest salaries, the rules he set .will allow increases for practically any purpose the . employer, seeks to set . So also with, the restriction of big incomes to $25,000 net a year. The only way the order can be enforced is to prevent corporations from taking tax deductions on salaries paid to executives above that figure. : If the corporation chooses to pay the tax. apparently it can. also pay the salary. r ' Thai; Justice Byrnes seems to be working up '"a formula which is a little easier than those con sidered in the public debate, certainly much easier than an arbitrary freezing, and no one can yet safely predict its overall effect upon wages, al though it must be assumed the average will slow ly rise. ' - .- . ' 'v.;,; Mr. Wendell Wfllkie seems to be running some place fast but the pondering politicos here are wondering where. ... Naturally, in view of the general direction he is traveling, there has been speculation that he may wind up in Mr. Roosevelt's cabinet some say as secretary of state, some as war secretary, when and if Judge Patterson, . the heir apparent there, is appointed to the supreme bench. In such talk, the seriousness of the recent pointed international conversations between Messrs. Willkie and Roosevelt are discounted.: The second front dispute certainly served no permanent eviL It must have made Stalin happy and caused Churchill to remember the idea. Beyond this, Mr. Willkie's destination defies spec ulation, even though the publicity velocity he has engendered must cause any observed to feel the breeze. :. One thing he has continuously done since the last campaign is to ebrrect the apprehensions of the New, York radicals, who thought him a barefoot boy of Wall Street, instead of Rushville.- Along that line his progress has been continuous, but in that progress he has lost republican support and ceased, in fact to be the leader of any party. Tb only safe prediction is that the breeze will grow before it diminishes. - Some people suspect this is a corporation tax -: bin. True, it proposes to collect only $1,300,000, 000 more from corporations and more than three ' times as much, or $4,900,000,000 from individuals. But its top average corporation rate, (which will hit the big corporations like US Steel and General 'Motors) is 80 per cent and, as they are generally operating under government orders, restricting v. their profits supposedly to 6 per cent the bill means roughly that they , will be allowed to earn 20 per cent of 8 per cent i r Consequently, while the stock market has been shaking off its chronic despair as a result of the bill, and the market men are saying the bill means business is going to have profits which will con tinue to increase slightly as production swings Into Its highest gear, there are no reasons for corporate cheers. r The " market reaction Is probably a result of changes in the capital gains tax more than the corporation rate. v 1 As for what It does to the individual taxpayer, the most extreme statement yet printed is not exag gerated. .. Sanaa ease .. . " One of the old stories now going around, with a . new war twist Is that the government is letting the banks issue paper money against nothing more than government bonds. The inference is that money is being inflated artifically, as well as through price wage increases. ..- ' - , Under the present system of Issuing money, the treasury deposits a gold certificate in the federal reserve banks and money is issued against that cer tificate. The federal reserve banks may, upon the approval of the treasury and the federal reserve board, issue other money up to 60 cents on the : dollar with bond backing. . .. , But today the amount of gold held by the treas . : ury is far above the value of outstanding currency, so there has been no direct inflation from that -; source. 1- The real value of the dollar today is fixed by Mr. Henderson, not by bookkeeping devices, but by decreeing the price to be paid for the food we eat and the wage we receive for our work.- We have gone far beyond currency manipulation into a com- - pletely managed economy.

HENDRICKS What is communism? 10-21-42 Russia is in the family of nations, presumably Jo remain throughout the ages: s : -y-(Continuing from yesterday:) Copying further from the "Beth el and Aurora" book: "Now it is quite conceivable that a republi can form of government might operate under a socialist system of distribution of wealth. "And it is quite conceivable that such a change in our econ omic system might be brought about through peaceful altera tion of the Constitution. Gov ernment must naturally protect itself against overthrow; but there is no justification for gov ernment to extend its sanction over our economic system and protect the capitalist economy.' V . "What government should do and does do Is to protect the per son In his property, so long as - the Constitution . upholds the right of private property, against violence, theft or fraud. - "And private property under our form of government may be held cooperatively r by all sorts of business afid social organiza tions, such as lodges, founda tions, trusts, churches which have brotherhoods and sister hoods that are communistic in their living; communistic col- onies having all property and the usufruct of it in common, which . may or may not increase amaz ingly in size and numbers and ao on through a long and length ening list. "This idea was recently ex pressed by Vice Chancellor John Today's Garden By LHXTE L. MADSEN R.C. asks what to do about his roses which are mildewing bad- ly. Says they are also suffering from blackspot Wonders if it Is . too late in the year to spray. Answer: As long as the roses has foliage on them, it is not too late to spray. A good spray ing program throughout the - . growing year, does so much to ; start the. bushes off at a good start in spring. Pick up all dis eased leaves which are falling off and destroy these. Keep the v air circulating through the rose ' bushes by preventing too many branches from growing. Stir the soil occasionally beneath the bushes. Take off the withered flowers as soon as they are withered. Notice the varieties ' which ; mildew least and if you are planting more roses select such. Visit other gardens and notice the same thing. Our nights are longer now, there is more damp- ness and - yet we have rather warm weather for fall, all this contributes to mildew. Mrs. AJf.T. - writes that she planted her Easter lily in a corner of her s h r u b border . .which she seldom visits and now finds that the lily is ready to bloom. She wonders what to do. ; Answerf My suggestion would be to let it bloom. There is little else to do about it. Lilies which have been forced for Easter fre quently -de take a notion , to bloom again In autumn. Some times forced Easter lilies turn out to be good flowering, blobs out of doors and will bloom for years. Other times the bulb does not withstand the forcing . and may only bloom again in au tumn and then die permanently. - However, as a rule you may ex pect it to bloom again next year out of doors. It does not do well . for forcirgjagain, COURSlCL Ov BIgelow of New Jersey, who 'declared: V "A man has as much right to be a communist as a Democrat, and a communist ought to have as much freedom as a Democrat X sayhowever mistaken in his views a communist might be, he should have an equal right to persuade others as long as it Is done peaceably. -U V V "Commenting on the above, the editor of the Oregon States man, Salem, Oregon, recently said: This is sound Judicial doc-' trine; and should be learned by the people. The form of govern ment should not be' tied up with an economic system; and the right to work or plead for changes by constitutional means either in our government or eco nomic system should not be mo lested. The country makes a ser ious mistake to try to ruthlessly bottle up or root out those whose political or economic ideas may be at variance with those of the majority t V V The sanctions of law protect such a form of property holding and community living as brought the Keil colony together and un der which it achieved remark able success in material and oth er ways. ' - "There is no doubt that, in any section of the United States, a body of people similarly associ ated, and as ably led, might now have as great success. Organized with better rules of permanency, and still as ably led, it might last for many decades, ; or genera- . tions, or even indefinitely, with higher ideals realized, such as the leaders as Bethel and Aurora dreamed, as outlined In these pages and might have made their dreams come true had the foun der lived a much longer span of years, and had prepared more carefully for permanency. yy - y s v "And it is conceivable that the United States might have a mul titude of such communities, per haps pointing the way, quietly and peaceably to the ultimate ' goal of 'equality of opportunity and 'economic emancipation. , "m- "There are In this country ' thousands of discouraged rural settlements, with neglected and abandoned farms, that might thus be made highly solvent prosperous .'and happy centers, fostering and radiating Ameri can ideals, culture and patrio tism, and rendering trustworthy ' and loyal service to every wor thy cause. 'And this would hold true for any country with sys tem of laws like that of the United States." - ' (Note: The appendices of this book touching the teachings of Saint -Simon Fourier, Baboeuf and Cabet were taken largely from Trench and German So- . cialism in Modern Times. by Prof. Richard T.

By JA1XC3 HILTON Chapter 4$ - . Out of the unused fifteen they chose two large attic rooms with a view over two roof tops north yard as far as Hampstead and Highgate, and it was fun to begin buying, the bare necessities of furniture and utensils, searching lor .-broken-down chairs that could be repaired and rfeupTrol stered, discarded shop fittings usable, as bookshelves, an old school desk that showed mahog any under its coating of ink and dirt. Gradually the rooms became a home, and the entirely vacant floor beneath encouraged a kin ship with roofs and sky rather man with the walls and pave ments of the streets. Towards the end of Septem ber, Blempied received a quar terly payment which he chose to devote to a crusade holiday rather than to paying arrears of his borough council rates. Having, invited Smith and Paula to Join the expedition, he took them for a week into rural Oxfordshire "making trouble - wherever we go," as the parson put it though ' that was an exaggeration. The question of country footpads was, he admitted, his King Charles Head every man, he added, should have some small matter to which he attaches un due importance. Always provid ed that he realizes the undue ness. Realizing it all the time, Blampied would puzzle over an cient maps in bar parlors, in quiring from villagers, whether it was still possible to take the diagonal , way across the fields from Planter's End to; Marsh Hollow, and generally receiving the answer that no one ever did it was much, quicker to go round by the road, and so on. T reckon you could if you tried, mister, but you'd 'ave a rare time gettin' through them net tles." A few' more pints of ' beer would perhaps elicit the infor mation that "I remember when I was a kid I used to-go to school that way, but tweuldnt be no help now not with the new school where it is." Yet those, as the narson ernphesfaed. drinking his beer as. copiously as . the rest were the paths their forefathers had trod, the secret short cuts across hill and valley, the ways by which the local man could escape or intercept while the armed . stranger tramped along the highroads. All of which failed to carry much weight with the Oxfordshire men of 1919, many of whom, as armed strang ers, had tramped the highroads of other countries. They obvious ly regarded . the parson as an oddity, but being country people schednles era seppUed 8j the respecUv start.

Several times the parson spoke on village greens to small, cur ious, unenthusiastic audiences, most of whom melted away when v he suggested that there and then they should march oyer the an- - dent ground, breaking down any barriers that might have been erected during the past century or so; but in one village there was a more active response, dut - to the fact that the closing of a certain path had been recent and resented. It was then that ' Blampied showed a certain child V like pugnacity; he clearly de prived enormous enjoyment from : leading a crowd of perhaps fifty persons, many of them young sters out for a lark, through Hill , top Farm and up Long Meadow to the gap in the hedge that was ; now laced with fresh barbed " wire. Smith found he could best be useful in preventing the chil- - dren from destroying crops or tearing their clothes: he thought the whole expedition a trifle sil ly but pleasingly novel. Actually . ' this " particular onslaught had :- quite an exciting finish; the own er of the property, a certain Gen eral Sir Sichard Hawkesley .Wych-Furlough, suddenly ap- peered on the scene, backed by r a menacing array of servants and gamekeepers. Everything pointed to a battle, but all that ; finally developed was a long and wordy argument between the General and the parson, culmin ating in retirement by both sides and a final shout from the Gen-: eral: "What is blazes has this business 'got to do with you, any way? You don't live here." J "And that" as Blampied said afterwards, "from a man who used to be governor of so many islands he could only visit a few of them once, a year so that any islander might have met his 'ad ministrative decisions with the same retort "What's it got to do with you? You don't live here!" The notion continued to please him as he added: "I was a. mis sionary on one of those islands till I quarreled with the bosses. ' I always quarrel with bosses . .
