LET’S BE UNANIMOUS FOR A 50’, CUT
A cut in autom obile license fees will no doubt be made
at the next session of the legislature. Three plans are be
ing discussed widely now. They are the 50 per cent cut, $3
fee and >5 fee.
No property tax payer can wisely consider the $3 and $5
fees. Every foot of real property in the state is pledged as
security to some $32,000,000 in highway bonds which are
now being paid with license fees. It is evident th at if the
fee is cut to a point where this obligation can not be taken
care of th a t a tax on property will be made.
The 50 per cent cut is the one th at we feel should be
settled on in Lane county and urged upon our legislators.
With a 50 per cent cut the bonds can be paid off as they be
come due, m aintenance of the present system can be kept
up, and there will be $2,000,000 for new construction to
m atch like federal appropriations as they come available.
Under the 50 per cent cut no increase in the gasoline
tax is needed and will rem ain at 4 cents. It has been found
in other states that a 4 cent gas tax yields the maximum
am ount of revenue. A higher tax results in increased boot
legging of gasoline, farm ers using tra c to r tax-free gasoline,
and evasion of the tax altogether by m any m otorists, with
the result th at the revenue falls off ra th e r than increases.
W ashington raised her gasoline tax in April. 1931. from
3 to 5 cents. Despite the fact that there were 25,000 more
cars registered this year than last the state lost $625,000 in
July, August and Septem ber over the same m onths last
year, clearly indicating that five cents is to high for the
gas tax.
Under the present law the counties receive one-third
of the plate tax but none of the gasoline tax. Many coun
ties will object to having their one-third reduced and may
lobby before the legislature. In Lane county, it is the sta te ’s
worry, for our third has been pledged to the state highway
departm ent to pay for roads already built. Since there is
no interest it will cost Lane county taxpayers nothing. We
have the roads and the state has the debt which it must
ultim ately collect from the license fees even if it does take
a long time.
If we w ant to protect our property from increased tax
ation to pay the state road debt, then we should back the
50 per cent cut. We should not be led astray by any cheap
fee which will enable the non-property owner to escape a
portion of his plate tax and load th a t portion on real pro
perty which is now greatly overburdened with taxes.

assessed. Regardless of w hat the county and state does
about taxes our chief worries will be right here a t home.

CARE OF THE AGED
At this w riting I have eight people under my care who
are over eighty years of age—six men and two women. All
but two of them are on foot; one woman has had a “stroke”
but can get about and help herself. She is 85. The other is
just past eighty, and has a sprained hip, using crutches to
go about her hotiBe. One old man, 86, is a veteran of the
civil w ar; another will be 88 at his next birthday.
It is Interesting to w atch these old boys and girls, who
have somehow come m ighty close to living the right way,
else they could not have achieved all these years with such
success; 1 m eet many of half their ages who really complain
more than they do.
And they know just a little more about w hat is good for
them to eat than I do. I never put them on a diet, except to
ask them to eat what “agrees” with them. If I caught one
old fellow eating salted peanuts and topping off with ice
cream , 1 would not stop him. If one has diabetes, I do not by
any m eans cu t off a reasonable am ount of sugar from his
dietary. I have always been a stickler for letting well
