1V2 Limitation Coming Up
It Is now assured that the measure to restrict property
taxes to l'ai of true cash value will be on the ballot In Ore
gon In November's general election. Initiative petitions have
received far beyond the required number of signatures
While election Is still nearly four months away, the vot
ing public should start considering the matter and become
educated on It.
Giles French writes In the Sherman County Journal that
he believes that the bill will have a better chance of paas
age this year than it did In 19C6 because voters have become
used to the Idea, property taxes are still high and "the
chances for relief from the legislature seem nil."
He also points out that its passage will give a boast to
the sales tax, but Is of the opinion that this will not be
enough to get a sales tax passed.
Those who are against a sales tax and this includes
many might well turn their efforts against the 114 tax
limitation because Its passage would bring about conditions
that would seem to make a sales tax more essential.
This poses an interesting situation in Morrow county for
the reason that property taxes here on the county average
have been slightly below the 114 limitation. In Heppner
and In some other code areas, they are slightly above, but
not very much.
Bill Johnson, state appraiser in the assessor's office, says
that he does not look for taxes across the county to be
much above the 114 figure for the coming year, 1968-69,
even though the county valuation Is down. The true cash value
currently is down 3.6, but the amount of the decrease might
be cut some when utilities assessments are received. The Pa
cific Gas Transmission compressor station at lone, for In
stance, is to go on the rolls this year.
Now, suppose the limitation measure passes and Morrow
county is not far In excess of the 114 limit, but other
parts of the state are well above. Then will come the hue
and cry for another source of taxation on the state level.
This, it may be expected, will boil down to a sales tax. Then,
as a result of this pressure, suppose the sales tax passes.
Morrow county people then would still be paying about
the same amount of property tax but would have the addit
ional burden of a sales tax. At least, there is this possibility.
It might develop that the sales tax would be earmarked
for education and thereby, applying to the Morrow county
school district, cut our school budget so that taxing agencies'
needs would be well below the ,1 14 limitation. However,
the taxing agencies would be empowered, as we understand
It, to levy to the 1 limit (without a vote) and this would
give them a sort of blank check to hike their budgets.
Rep Irvln Mann has a legal opinion to show, too, that
if a taxing agency succeeds in getting itself voted out from
under the limit, which the measure provides, the other tax
ing agencies are free to go up to the 1 limit, thereby
giving them a "blank check" again.
For instance, if the school district has an emergency sit
uation that would not permit It to operate within the 1
limitation, together with the county, city and oher agencies
sharing the xk, it could put the matter to vote at a special
election. If a favorable vote were received, the entire school
budget would be removed from the 1 restriction. This,
then, would give the county, city, and whatever other taxing
agencies there were in a particular area a chance to expand
their budgets to the limit.
Result of this again would be that the taxpayers would
be saddled with more taxes rather than less taxes.
There are many other facets of this proposal that appear
very, very dubious and still must be resolved. One of the
foremost of these is the matter of deciding how the various
taxing agencies are to determine their respective shares un
der the limitation. Which will have precedence over the
other? Who will have the unenviable responsibility of de
termining the shares?
In these questions lie some of the chaos that is expected
to accrue if this measure is passed. If there are logical and
reasonable answers to them, the measure's proponents should
advance them so that they may be cleared.
There appears to be a better than even chance that this
measure will pass. If it does, it seems apparent that there
will be a whole new gamut of problems besetting the state.
Unless there are better answers to some of the ramifica
tions posed by this measure than now seem apparent, that
word "chaos" looms like a neon sign on the forthcoming tax
picture In this state.

Property Tax Limit:
What it Could Do
It's now official: the initiative
proposal to limit local property
taxes to 114 per cent of mar
ket value will appear at Ballot
Measure No. 7 in Oregon's No

Proponents of the constitu
tional amendment filed more
than enough certified petition
signatures with the secretary of
tt.itn hpfnrp the Julv 4 dead
line. Their measure differs In fore wovemoer; tne election oaie
locating revenues levied within
the limitation to the hundreds
of local taxing units in the
state.
It also would allow one an
nual election to exceed the lim
it, on the traditional November
election Tuesday. Even this
safety valve, however, contains
risks; a favorable vote of at
least 20 per cent of all regis
tered voters Is required by the
amendment; property tax bills
normally are received lust he

Meeting Slated
On Logging Codes
A series of 12 meetings have
been scheduled throughout the
state for the purpose of explain
ing proposed changes in the
logging codes of Workmen's
Compensation prior to a public
neanng to consider the revised
codes for adoption, the Work
men's Compensation Board ad-
vises.

ons will be given time to ask
questions or to express their
views of the changes.
some respects from the ill-fated
limitation proposal of two years
ago, but its passage still could
mean revenue losses of up to
50 per cent for some local gov
ernment districts.
The decision rests now with
Oreeon voters. Many, consider'
ing what has come to be known
as the "taxpayers' revolt" and
the inability of last year's leg
islature to come to grips with
tax reform problems, believe
the limitation measure will be
Dassed,
What Is "The"' measure? "And
what will happen if it Is ap
proved?
It would place a limitation of
1 per cent of market value on
the total of local levies. It would
exempt levies for payments on
existing bonded indebtedness.
Would Repeal 6 Limit
It would repeal the present
Constitutional restriction that
limits local government tax lev
ies to an annual increase of 6
per cent. Tax experts point out
that the 6 per cent figure is a
restriction on the total amount
of monev in dollars that a dis
trict can levy. In contrast, the
1.14 per cent limitation would
be tied to the total market val
ue of all property in the dis
trict. Because market value is in
creasing at a rate faster than 6
per cent annually, they reason
that property taxes would climb
faster under the proposed sys
tem automatically. Using the
1957-1967 period, they can show
that property taxes nave grown
91 per cent; under the 114 per
cent limit they would have in
creased 141 per cent without
any vote fo the people.
Another provision of the
amendment would give the leg
islature, instead of the State
Tax Commission, the task of al-
come eight long months before
fiscal year budgets must be fin
alized.
Pioneer
Ponderings
by w. s. cavebhux
700,000 More
Some of our forecasters who
are expert enough to be recog
nized bv the press predict that
ten years from now Oregon will
have 700,000 more cars on our
roads.
If that comes true. It is not
too early to speculate on the
impact of such numbers. Allow
ing 100 ft of roidway for each
car in operation, it would re
quire 14,000 miles of single lane.
7.000 miles of double lane, or
3,500 miles of four lane high
way to put them all in motion
at one time.
It would require 4,000 acres
of added storage or garage
space. Maybe we'll have to park
on the high desert or "soil
bank" land. If the situation gets
too bad we could allocate mile
age or stagger hours of move
ment. We have a few years to
figure it out .
S100 Million Loss Seen
The loss of revenue to local
government units imposed by
such a limitation would be an
estimated $100 million, or a cut
of nearly 30 per cent on a state-
wide average. This is money
which goes mostly to pay for
schools, and also supports sucn
local services as lire and po
lice protection, libraries, sewers,
lights, parks, etc.
Virtually no one believes such
a cutback could be tolerated.
Sources of replacement revenue,
probably from the state, already
are being discussed. Many Ore
gonians, to be sure, voice sup
port of such severe property tax
cutbacks purely as a means of
forcing the legislature to do
something.
It is possible that legislative
action could take one of sev
eral forms, or a combination of
them. According to Mate Tax
Commission estima t e s, an
amount to offset $100 million
in local revenue losses could be
raised by the state through (a)
a 3 per cent sales tax, exempt
ing food and drugs, (b) increas
ing the state income tax rates
to range from 5 to 15 per cent
up from the present 3 to 9.
per cent range, or (c) a net
receipts tax of 2 per cent on
gross income in addition to
present income tax rates.
The 1969 legislature, however,
faces two distinct handicaps if
it has to propose new revenue
sources. For one thing, the ef
fects of the limitation would
not be felt by localities or the
public until the next fiscal year
lust alter normal legislative
adjournment.
No Emergency Clause
Second, Oregon's legislature is
Constitutionally prohibited from
attaching the emergency clause
to revenue measures and thus
make them immediately effect
ive. Any revenue measure pass
ed by the legislature, then, is
subject to popular referendum
before it can be given fair trial
or these reasons many ob
servers here are pessimistic,
Foreseeing little or no popular
support for new revenue sources
before the limitation's effects
would be felt, thev fear the leg,
islature cannot act effectively
on behalf of the people it rep
resents. Or, that any legislat
ive action would be futile be
cause it could well be reversed
possibly along with the for
tunes of individual legislators
by referendum.
Then Oregon could be faced
with inadequate local revenue
to support local services, and
with no alternate way for the
state to raise money to give to
localities. Such a situation could
force another special session of
the legislature in the fall of
1969, when the pinch is felt
Some DeoDle call this a dan
gerous game. Some may term it
a vicious circle, to demand an
swers from a legislative body
which ultimately must give all
voters the final word on reve
nue measures. Many others ex
press satisfaction in having the
final say, and in the slowness
of the democratic process.
In any case, sufficient petit
Ion signers have made the In
itiative proposal official. And it
is safe to predict a lot of heat
ed discussion on Ballot Measure
No. 7 between now and November.
BUT THE MAN who makes "en
thusiastic" seem like an un

ing things to say about other
phases of OSU and particularly
The Great Pumpkin," Football
Coach Dee Andros.
Jim travels a lot with the
coach, and Andros now declares
that Heppner couldn't be a town
of only 1.600 but must be at
least 16,000 because everywhere
the two go, they run Into some
one from Heppner.
For instance, they were In
Honolulu recently, reposing un
dor a banyan tree.
An army officer and his wife
stepped up and asked, "Pardon
me. aren t you Jim Barratt?
The man was Col. Ed Burch-
ell. an old Heppnerite.
Sure enough. Mrs. Burchell at
one time "baby sat young
Jim.
A great visit ensued.
Andros quietly took this in.
Then later Dick Wiehtmnn
spotted Barratt. Another one
from Heppner. So it goes on
their travels.
Andros knows that Heppner
is more than 16,000.
THE COLORFUL grid coach is
becoming famous for the fact
that he leads his powerful foot
ball team on to the field be
fore a game, running like mad
in his orange jacket while the
boys lope behind him.
Barratt chides him now and
then with the comment, "Some
day you're going to trip and
fall down, then watch out."
But the coach, of Greek or
igin, instills a great spirit in
his boys and they like him
thoroughly.
Andros jokes about his na
tionality. "When two Greeks get togeth

a restaurant, he declares.

bald eagle hovering over Its
nest on the river tour, to name
just a very few of the interest
