OREGON TAX TANGLE
IS SAID HINDRANCE
TO STATE’S PROGRESS
Oregon has the most democratic
system of government among the
48 states, but also the most com
plicated tax system, declared Sen
ator Angus Gibson, for many
years a leading member of the
legislature way and means com
mittee, in a recent address to the
faculty Triad club here.
Senator Gibson pointed out that
no new tax bill may be passed
without being subject to direct
vote of the people, and that con
stitutional restriction on use of
income tax receipts puts the state
in a position of having surplus
funds that it can’t spend.
He said almost every legislator
is a friend of higher education and
wants to support the institutions
liberally, but that with Oregon
population up 31 percent and the
purchasing power of the dollar
down 40 percent, the state is
faced with serious financial prob
lems under the present tax sys
tem.

Folks here were burned up over
an article on Our Town I reprinted
from a city paper. Made us sound
like a bunch of “hicks” who whit
tled sticks and wore chin whiskers.
(L ast person I saw with chin
whiskers was passing through on
his way east.)
So I ran an editorial on how we
spoke of city “slickers”—as over
dressed wiseacres, only interested
in making money, and spending it
in night clube.
Fact is, if we got to know each
other we’d probably find we're not
much different, u.iderneath. City
folks work hard; like to come home
at night to their families; and re
lax with a moderate glass of beer,
like we do.
From where I sit, it doesn’t mat
ter if you live in an apartment
house or on a farm — work in an
office or a cornfield—the American
tradition of quiet home life, tem
perate habits, and neighborliness
is common to all of us.
