House Bill No. 3, the much amended
and hotly debitted income tax meus-
r ure, finally passed the House Friday
r evening with an amendment permit-
r ting a ten per cent reduction on this
s year’s tax payments.
»
No other measure haa received ao
I much strength of feeling and vigor
r of debate.
From the vote, it was evident that
! j organized farmers and those favoring
• the tax commission were adamant for
-1 no reduction at all. Organised labor
‘ ] and most of the independent members
I, were for a degree of a reduction.
After many attempts by the cixn-
■ mittee to arrive at a decision. Friday
■ night found them split worse than
i ever before with a majority and two
^¡minority reports.

'
The majority report providing for
a ten per cent' reduction prevailed.
The bill will go to the Senate where
the advanced dope is that the reduc
tion will be increased to probably 15
per cost. By the time this is printed !
taxpayer’s money. It appears to me
to be the State of Oregon vs, war
bonds and stamps.
Only a few in the House support
this view but. my opinion was not
changed after hearing the spirited
debate-

One of the atand-out policies of
thia legislature is the allergy it haa
towards giving various state boards
