IMPORTANT WORK

of commerce, forum this noon at the

ed In a comprehensive manner the im-
iwrtant points In the 1923 session of
tho state legislature.
Ilepresentatlve Carkln stated that
the Jackson count? fnlr wax assured
of 16000 aid from the state and ex -
plained that the only other two things
done by tbe legislature which would
materlully affect Jackson county were
the provisions made that tbe budget
of any tax levying body must be ap
proved by a board of three persons
appointed In each county by the gov
ernor and that a bond Issue by any
municipality, school district, county or
other division of the state must be
Inspected nnd passed upon, with refer
ence to sinking fund provisions, etc.,
prior to the sulo of tbe bonds, by a
board of five, sitting at Salem, also to
be appointed by the governor.
Representative Carkln explained
that the Income tax would make only
a slight difference, estimated at two
mills reduction -in the state tax and
that the killing ot the severance tax
bill, designed at first to place a tax on
government timber but finally result-
Ing In the provision for placing a tax
on all timber, along with the couhoII-;
rintlon measure, mattered little no both :
bills would havo reduced state taxes
but one mill nnd one-quarter in theory. j
H. L.Walther spoke briefly on oine ,
of the interesting experiences tbe
Jackson county delegation bad in at
taining their ends and stated that
Carkln was entirely too modest in re
counting his work in the legislature.
Ho stated that for tbe first time in
six years tbe Jackson county delega
tion was harmonious and worked in
perfect coordination. Mr. Wolther
