Ore., Feb. 11 () From tho rural districts and small cities of central Willamette valley the I revolt against payment of the usual proportion of property taxes i was carried Into the atate house last night. i At u hearing called by the as sessment and taxation committees of the two houses the rebelling i citizens were represented by W. T. ' Vinton and J. 13. Burdette, Mc Mlnnville attorneys, the' former an ex-president of the state senate. I The attorneys said they were serv- cause into court berore they pay more than what they consider a fair amount in property taxes. Vnholr Trinity Vinton referred to the state's excise and Income tax acts and the Prospective new Intangibles tax as an ..unnoly trinity.. ftnd a ..,utta gesture," acceptable to his people only If the state couldn't offer i something bettor. He urged In- i stead one big income tax act that i would vipld around 17.00A.nn0 nr , mnr than twto n muh a. j otner threo ara estimated to yield.

Galloway said the retro active bill would obviate the necessity of a refund, except for me aiuerence between tne tax on sios eurnuigH, neia invmia oy tne . court, and net earnings, provided ' In the new bills. Also he said It woum enaoie tne commission to u.iw. f.vu,uuv ur mure inu( was not collected under the old act. Bonds Tax Freo Vinton doolared that ot about $60,000,000 In' taxes paid In Ore ' gon every year the excise, lntangl- bles and Income acts would raise I only about $S, 000, 000, or about 6 percent. "It's not noticeable,'' he said, "In hanks of McMinnville are $5,000,000 In bonds that do not pay a cent of tax, and the time Is nenr when the counties will own our farms. If something is not done at this session ' It will be I necessary to call a special session of the legislature . for relief, - be cause we are not going to stand ' for It." J. E. Burdotte said that one fourth of the taxpayers of Yamhill county are delinquent, while over one-fourth borrowed money to pay taxes. Ho urged that Intangibles be placed on the tax rolls for ad valorem assessment as now re quired by law. He said he believed the lncomo tax Is subject to the same assault In court as the for mer Intangibles tax. PF.IPINQ, China. Fehi 11.
