In fact, they will be larger unless the public generally does something to stop public spending—no small part of which is for spe cial groups both nationally and statewide. ... The tax study committee w ill discuss some new taxes and try to find some that are more equit able. Even if It succeeds the legislature will have to pass up- 0 7 them and probably the people will have a final say. Oregon could have a worse tax system and it certainly could have a better one.. Ours Is a most confusing tax problem with taxes interdependent on other taxes Utilities do not pay corpora tion taxes because the state tax commission has authority to set their values. Corporations may obtain fifty percent reduction in personal taxes Gt used to be 90%.) There are so many exemp tions granted personal property that the tax is very unfair. It has been suggested that Oregon adopt a business tax one with no exemptions and with rates set for certain types of business organization. If the rates were high enough it would be possible to do away with the personal property tax entirely. It would be much easier to adopt a new tax than to patch up the holes in the old. , , It Is also realized that any thing new arouses resistance from the people who usually pre fer the old to which they are ac customed to the new which is N o r th w e s t P r o g r e s s ."
