Penle&U TK3 Inaereaic farad ICcnrt Accepts jurisdiction in School Tax Suit The state supreme court Toes day accepted jurisdiction in a suit brought by Laao county school districts to . determine' whether counties are required to levy the annual county school tax of $10 per pupu. ' Arguments of attorneys will be heard by the court on August 14. The Lane county court refused to make the levy for the next year but set aside forest reserve rent als, received by the county from the federal government, to be used to offset the levy. This school tax previously was met througtLstate Income tax rev enues but was returned: to the counties by an act of the 1931 leg islature. Attorney John L. Luvaas, rep resenting the school districts, em phasized that the county was re quired to make the levy under the law and that forest rentals of $182, 000 a year would fall far short of paying the $10 per child. "If Lane county is permitted not : to make the levy other counties probably would take similar action,' Luva as averred. Lane county District Attorney C E. Luckey, representing the coun ty court, said he was anxious for the supreme court to settle the is sue for all time. He said if the county levies the $202,000 then the schools also would receive tha fo rest reserve rentals. cixcurr couet RalDh G.
