F. (Monte) Montgom ery, Speaker of the House of Representatives, and he alms for referral to Oregon voters of a tax reform package including a sales tax while the 17 leg islature still is in session. Interviewed last week, the Eu ;;eno Republican was emphatic m one point: "We don't need additional monev to run state government; ve can continue and even accel erate existing programs. I want o keep pounding this and vunduv; this, and I want to divorce state tax problems from local tax problems." Speaker Montgomery's "Free dom of Choice" proposal would allow citizens to choose between no change in local taxation or accepting alternative revenue sources to provide property tax cuts. Alternatives would consist mainly of a three per cent state sales tax. excluding food and .irugs. and a corporate income tax increase, with a provision to limit property taxes for school purposes. I'nlike Gov. McCall, iJep. Montgomery does not be lieve the people will approve an income tax hike. And, unlike the governor, he does not be 'ieve corporation income and ex :s' taves should be raised two per cent "1 don't believe $16 million can be cut from state programs without severe damage to pro grams long since requested and approved by the people," says Rep. Montgomery, referring to Gov. McCall's budget proposals. "And I don't believe the peo p'e want an increase in their income tax, as they have dem onstrated three times in 13 years, twice in the last eight. We haven't in 20 years had the opportunity to vote on a sales tax in the same manner as the igarette tax last May." Rep. Montgomery, a lanky ugene i:urance man now serv ing his second term as the lead ing House officer, makes it clear he is not a sales tax advocate. Income tax Is the best method, For Fast And Dependable Freight Service With Daily Overnight Service From Portland Including Saturdays SHIP Eastern Oregon F Served By REIGHT Flatt's Truck Service bjrtverettL Cutter he maintains, "but after two tries In my short tenure, I'm prepared to try something else." At any rate, something must be done .for those who seek property tax cuts, and he feels the Senate will share this feel ing. He expresses confidence In legislative referral and getting the measure on the ballot dur ing the current session. The package, he predicts, will ap pear on the ballot In title form, or outline: if approved, the leg islature will implement the var 'ous proposals and smooth the way for property tax reduction. Rep. Montgomery also fore, sees continuation of some state 'evel programs to relieve prop erty taxes. Inventory tax relief "Hist come, for example, and he anticipates no problem in the irpropriation of state funds earmarked for this purpose. He also will support a gasoline tax increase if revenue is tagged to go back to cities and counties. Air and water quality, rated bv legislators as the state's "umber two problem area. Is viewed as a real dilemma by Speaker Montgomery. A good first step, he feels, would be to trengthen the State Sanitary uthoritv bv providing It with 'unds and staff equal to its Mutorv responsibility. But there Is no consensus, no "lace to find answers, he feels, ') seeking to purify the air In "articular. The federal answer 's to appropriate money, he avs: often the onlv answer is ' - hut down offending opera tions. "Yet the hi-'gest offender is the automobile. I've been to Many meetings and we conclude 'v have a problem, but . . . I'm looking for someone with the viswers. and I'm not sure there is nv such person." Unemployment compensation legislation will loom large this ession. nrid Ren. Montgomery 'ooks for some changes. He op poses tying benefits to a per centage of the state's average weekly wage, which he believes would relinquish - legislative re sponsibility for setting dollar amounts. But Republicans are unanimous in supporting a ten percent increase in benefits this year, and in revising benem schedules and rates to "more uiequ.itely reward those good employer - employee relation ships." Rep. Montgomery anticipates this session will last no longer than in 1965, and hopefully not as long. Part of the reason lies in the go-ahead signal he has rriven his appointed committee hairmen. Instead of waiting for bills or someone to present a problem, committees have been instructed to look ahead 20 to 30 years and draw up legisla tion now to meet future state needs. "I'm very proud of this con structive step forward," the House Speaker reports. "Com mittee chairmen are initiating and innovating on their own, headlining problem areas and then having people in to testify. "We want to be responsive to the people, but we also have ; the responsibility to lead."
