TAXPAYERS ORGANIZE
Western Oregon taxpayers, more
than 200 strong, gathered in Salem
this week to hear Frank Arnold,
Nebraska tax authority, blame an
apparent lack of public interest in
government for the ever-increasing
tax burden. Arnold said there
was a need for militant citizens'
organizations to take an active part
in reducing the tax burdens and,
acting on the suggestion, prelimin
ary steps were taken to form an
Oregon taxpayers' league. Claude
Buchanan, former Benton county
legislator, was elected chairman of
the group to organize the league
Buchanan was authorized to ap
point one or more representatives
from each of the nine counties rep
resented at the meeting to serve on
