Anywhere, Any Time The most important business trans acted by the State Assessors Associa tion, in session here last week, was passing of a resolution calling upon the state legislature to enact laws putting the county unit plan of school taxation into effect in every county in the state. At the present time the operation of the law is optional with each county ae a unit, and very few counties have adopted it. With the per capita school tax, levied each year by the county court ramainjpg at 320, this inequality of school taxes is not so apparent, but if the per capita is reduced to 310 per pupil, as now seems probable, it means that a farm in one district might be paying any where up to 3150 a year for school tax, while across an imaginary line in another district a farm of equal value might be paying not more than |5 for school support. Chas. V. Galloway, in his talk be fore the assessors at the banquet here last Friday night, stated that there are 2200 school districts in the state, 73 of them in Coos county, and there is the most glaring inequality <rf school taxation between districts that it is possible to imagine. In Coos the variation to from A of a mill in one district to 80.8 mills in another. And this county does not show the wide range between high and low that some other counties do. In Lincoln county the range was from nothing to 24.5 mills prior to 1928. Since the county unit system was put into ef fect the range has been from 73 to 11.4 mills. Klamath county, prior to 1924 varied between districts 21.4 mills. Since that the lowest rate in any district was 8.4 mills and the highest paying district levied a tax of 4.2 mills. Mr. Galloway, who is chairman of the State Tax Commission, had a great fund of tax information at his tongue’s end, which was of interest to all taxpayers and it was a pity eo few Coquille people heard him. J. H. Carkin, another member of the tax commieaion, also spoke at the banquet, giving a general idea of the commision's workings. He stated that the state commission operated at a much smaller cost in collecting its in come tax than did the federal de- partment in its collections in Oregon. The more serious part of the pro gram last Friday evening was inter- spersed with several vocal selections by Mrs. Marvel Oberteuffer, accom panied by Mrs. M. O. Hawkins at the piano. J. P. Beyer» presided as toast *jt master. Attention was called by one of the’ visitors to the fact that wherever the assessors had met the tables or room were decorated with lovely flowers and bouquets. He thought the asses sors owed a vote of thanks to Mrs. Beyers who had made their surround ings more cheerful with these floral contributions. Officers elected for the coming yeer at the Friday afternoon session, were W. L. Osborn, of Yamhill, president. G. W. Spicer, of Clatsop, vice president. Geo. M. Knox, of Hood River, lencetary-treasurer. McMinnville, home of the new pres ident, was selected ao the meeting place for 1933. Many of the assessors and their wives went down to Gold Beach Sat urday morning, for the Chamber of Commerce luncheon at noon, and it is reported that some of them had good luck in their (Rogue river fishing.
