Senator Patterson says: "There should be a state income tax calculated to raise enough money to pay for all state taxes to the end that not a dollar need be raised for state purposes on the land. Property taxes can be levied for county, mu nicipal, school and road districts, as at present, but an income tax should take care of state taxes. This system would reduce the present tax on real property probably 20 percent. "My idea of a state income tax is not to raise more money so that there will be more money to Spend, but, on the contrary, to finance the state by the income tax alone. This can be wcrked out in a way that there need be no army of men necessary to collect the income tax. The in come tax should have a minimum so low that everyone in Oregon who has an income wiil pay his just propor tion. As it is. now, thousands of in dividual's with incomes do not pay a cent of direct taxes. mittee is endeavoring to mix music and corn. j MONTANA MAN BELIEVES INDEPENDENCE IS A COMER Believing that Indeperdence is a comer, H.
