It was sent to all legislators who sponsor the leg islative bill deserihed.) To the Oregon Legislators ssaiem, Oregon Dear Sirs, Regarding the bill which would place churches on the tax roll, I wish to call your at tention to the fact that churches through their activities are sav ing the taxpayers a great deal more than could possibly be reckoned. Has it occurred to the sponsors of this bill that taxation would hamper the hands that to salvage homes and delin are trying to prevent crime and quents? Last week I read in ttie Ore gon Journal that Oregon tax payers are expending more than a million dollars yearly to take care of children of broken homes, May I suggest that you make a broadmlnded intelligent sur vey of the good influence of the churches in building characters of good taxpaying citizens, then ask yourselves, "What might be the result if this work is ham pered?" I believe that J. Edgar Hoover would be able to inform your intelligence on this matter. I wish to request that you please do not pass this bill. Thank you sincerely, Mrs. Ray Barnett.

If you have so many English classes why do you want more? Heppner is wanting lone to con solidate and this is going to make more problems than there is now. I feel if the county is having a school system then the ad visors of the schools should have a meeting and set up the same program for the entire county, or get rid of the county school system, and let each school have its own program. If the schools consolidate, Heppner is going to have more problems than they have now. They can't realize how many problems they are going to have in the future if the schools con solidate. Sincerely, Sue Townsend lone To the Editor: The following is the copy of the testimony be fore the Committee on Taxation, House of Representatives Friday: Sirs: Farm taxes are being shifted in Eastern Oregon counties from cities to farms at the rate of 1 a year due to urban deprec iation of values. Taxes are up at the rate of about 500. Farms are taxed at their true cash values when they 'are not for sale rather than their earning power, while earning power is the only thing a farmer has to pay taxes with. No stock ranch, to my knowledge, is paying the operator a fair wage and 1 interest on its value. Farm prices have never been or are not now more than 80 or 85 of parity and since all or most of our profit is in the 15 or 20 we are not getting and since we are now suffering SPECIAL ON CROWN VINYL Sale $1.69 SQ.

Farmers are quite helpless when it comes to controlling lo cal governmental expenditures as they are hopelessly outvoted on budgets and bond issues. Therefore we cannot and should not be required to bear any more of other peoples tax burdens. House bill No. 1033 will add another burden with no apparent relief on agriculture. We must have farm personal property taken off the tax rolls in this bill or have all farm in come for the original sale of farm produce exempted from the 1 net tax. O. W.
