Brown Talks
On Tax Matters
Irving Brown, auditor for the
state treasurer's office in charge
of the inheritance and gift tax
division, urged members of the
Salem Board of Realtors during
their Friday luncheon to advise
their clients to lay their cards
on the table in connection with
the transfer of property within
the family.
Transfer of property for the
purpose of avoiding gift or in
heritance taxes may mean trou
ble and considerable expense
later, said Brown. Quite fre
quently, he added, in the at
tempt to get around gift taxes
the person to whom the proper
ty has been deeded becomes in
volved in the higher brackets
of income which may prove
three times as costly.
Brown said that investigation
has revealed that many deeds
have been filed in Marion coun
ty that do not carry the neces
sary revenue stamps. When such
deeds are found it generally re
suits In federal investigation to
determine whether there has
been an attempt to avoid gift

Grange Opposes
State Sales Tax
i Coos Bay, June IT ) The
solid front has been broken, but
the state Grange still Is against
a sales tax.
A resolution proposing a "fair
and impartial sales tax went
down to overwhelming defeat
at the Grange's annual convea
tlon here yesterday.
i The proposal was brought to
the floor by a majority of the I
tax committee. It also was
known several Granges had
gone over to support of a sales
tax In the last year, but the
great majority of delegates
swarmed the resolution under.
I There was a long debate first,
with proponents asserting it
would reduce property taxes,
while opponents said it only
would shift the tax burden to
Ithe poor.
