Every voter should know that the assessed valuation of Or
egon is $1,058,880,736, and that the Housewives' Council
"Water and Power" board could issue and sell bonds for
$52,944,000. Your property would be a guarantee for the
payment of this huge debt.
Oregons total bonded debt, including that of all political
subdivisions, is now morethan$166,000,000. ItsState bond
ed indebtedness alone per capita, $47.08, is the highest in
Union.
As fast as this political board might retire bo Ji, k would
have the power to issue more; and as tie assessed valuations
increased the amount of bonds could also increase.
