NEW TAXES FOR OLD
The people of Oregon are soon
going to have something to «av
about how they pay their taxes
It Is not presumed that the tax­
es will be any smaller. 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
