sidy, exemittlon or bounty, but wilH
be compatible with the long-crop
rotation uf timber farming.
We have drewn up several prin
ciple and statements of policy,
which we believe should guide the
framing of such legislation, xome
of theuj based on the experience
of other statea and all reached only
after much thought and discussion.
1. Objective of Forest Tux leg
Is hitloii. ( 1 ) To encourugu pri
vate owners to hold title to, and to
protect from fire, logged lands for
timber-growing purposes; (2) To
continue to raise from such lands
a reasonable current tax revenue.
2. Desirability for Immediate
Action. In the face of a growing
acreage of abandoned and tax de
linquent forest lands (now over
ono million acres) the problem is
becoming acute and early action
will save a correspondingly larger
acreage to the tax rolls and to con
tinued forest productivity. The
feifernl forest tax Inquiry Into the
principles of forest taxation will not
release its conclusions for two or
three years and leglslution uch a
now proposed will not prevent ben
efiting by that study later, when
its results are available.
'i. ChiMM of I-'iiul .AffiH'tcil by
Such lH'gi-bitiim. It Is proposed
that thhi legislation apply only to
cut -over or burned land suitable
primarily for forest production.!
and that the law allow the inclu
sion as "reforestation land of all
forest ncreage which is now grow-j
Ing or may grow forest crops, and j
exclude all lands which are now
supporting mature forest growth in
merchantable quantities. ,
The law should also provide that)
if lands listed as reforestation lands;
have now or develop later values J
olher than for forest growing, such I
other values may be the basis for j
as-iesmeni and taxation In addi-1
lion to the annual reforestation'
land tax and yield tax.
I. System nf Taxation. Of the
three principal systems for taxing'
forest lands that have been pro-1
posed, namely a pure land tax. n
pure yield tax, nud a combination
of the annual land tax and the
yield tax; the majority of the com-J
mitlee favors the last as beat suit-!
ed to Oregon's present conditions
and as most likely to correct the
present unsatisfactory situation.
. Oregon has more .standing tlm-'
her than any olher stale. The
Htunipnge value of litis Umber Is
four hundr'-d million dollars. Two
thirds of the iuduf-trial payroll of
Oregon is derived from its wood
using industries.
Timber in the state's greatest re
sourcea resource which If pro
tected may be perpetuated Indefi
nitely: Neglected, it Is certain to
be lost.
The first necessary step toward
the perpetuation of our forests is
the enactment of proper forest tax
legislation. .tnch as is forecast in
these recommendations.
