Figures are said to be dry and uninteresting, however In those times
of heavy and increasing tax burdens, the tax levy of Medford is not unin
teresting reading.
For four or five years prior to the' wnr (1913-1917 just prior to the
Gates administration) Medford tax levies nke those of other towns, school
districts and counties had remained fairly stutlonary, with an average tax
levy for the period of about 14 Vi mills.
Then came the war with Its galaxy of cost plus contracts, trebled wages
and other inflation and taxes increased generally.
Tax iovles In the ten other cities in Oregon of about Medford's size
all showed an Increase, Increasing in the case of Bend to more than double
the pre-war figures, the average Increase being approximately 4 0 per cent.
Yet Medford's tax levy for the last six years (the six years of
the GntcN administration) still nvtiiiircs tlu same as it did for the
period before tlio war, H M mills.
Here are the figures:
Before Gates' administration .
1913 tax levy
1914 tax levy
1915 tax levy
1 91 G tax levy
Average for the four years 14 & mills
During Gates' administration
1 9 1 7 tax levy
1918 tax levy
1919 tax levy
1920 tax lew
1921 tax levy 1 15.8 mills
- Average for five years 1 4 M 'mills.
