TO THE EDITOR
(Editor's Note: The following
letter is printed at the request
of the writer. 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.
Dear Editor:
This letter is concerning the
letter the two Heppner students
wrote about my previous letter.
They have stated it isn't up
to the school system to let
school out for different occasions,

that it is up to the advisor of
the different schools. Why do
we have a school system if the
schools aren't run the same
way?
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

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

a National persecution by the
press, there is not much pros
pects of these getting better.
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.
