Oregon smokers will begin paying a two-cent state tax on each package of “fags” on June 14. Gov ernor Sprague signed the cigarette tax bill this week in the presence of a group of old age pension advocates and sent it on to the state department | to become law. Revenues from this tax are variously estimated at from $1,200,900 to $1,000,000 a year. Five- sixths of this revenue is to go toward public assistance, generally inter preted as old age pensions, while the remaining one-sixth goes toward the support of vocational education.
