Oregon district eighth representative, a vigorous op ponent of the measure since the b ill was drafted, calls it, "A n Income Tax in Reverse,” because it becomes a tax upon those of modest incomes and builds up exemptions of the moneyed groups. He decries the added bur den it w ill place on veterans now paying inflated prices fo r everything. . Answer to all this, is that because government price bungling long ago and lack of housing foresight, the veteran and everybody else w ill pay dis proportionate prices fo r everything. Also though a sixth of the revenue to be obtained might not in fact muster additional revenue fo r old age assistance, it at least assures them amounts they were getting prior to the June slash.
