^vWOULD
we stand for a law that
kept 3000 families out of Oregon?
Of course we wouldn't! So it’s up to us to vote the
antagonistic Income Tax Law out of existence!
For it has already lost for Oregon payrolls amount
ing to more than six million dollars ($6,000,000)
a year! And six million dollars means at least
3000 families who are lost to Oregon’s popula
tion in just one year under this dangerous law.
59 Industries lost to Oregon in
a single year—others threatened
These figures show the appalling effect of this unwise tax law
which antagonizes industries on which a large part of our
growth and prosperity depend.
Oregon needs Jobs and Markets
The Income Tax kills both!
Vote 312X YES and kill the Income Tax!
If there are two things Oregon needs above all others it is ( I ) jobs for her
workers, nhd (2) markets for her products. Every new enterprise or in
dustry brought into Oregon means more jobs. Jobs support population. Ev
ery increase in population means a better market for farm and factory
products.
Yet the income tax law antagonizes industries and enterprises. Many au
thentic cases are on file where industries MOVED OUT OF OREGON OR
DECIDED NOT TO COME TO OREGON because of the income tax law.
Counting loss of capita] invested, purchases and payroll, this loss is already
conservatively estimated at more than $40.000.000. The payroll loss uione
is already over $6,000.000 a year I
The customer who quits and says nothing —
I*he inmdiou* thing about thia law is th a industries do not complain—they simply
par-k up and move to another .taleI They are like the customer who quits and says
nothing—you never know he is dissatisfied nor why — hence have no chance to
make matters right with him. Many large concerns who left or stayed out of Ore
gon on account of the income taa refused to allow us to use their names because
they di<i not want to lx made to appear as taa dodgers— and yet they could not af
ford to carry a taa burden in Oregon which they did not need to pay in California or
Washington! There is an old adage which says. "Business is sensitive. It goes only
where it is invited and stays only where it is well treated " We cannot afford to AN
TAGONIZE enterprises which other states are INVITING!
This insidious law must go
It is hurting Oregon !
Read these extracts from letters. The originals
and hv adreds more like them are on file. TI ten
go to the polls November 4th and rid Orc gon
of this objectionable law which is keeping
millions of dollars and thousands of people
away from our state.
