house hero stands on a hill
about -000 feet high. One win
dow of .your room looks toward
(lie Pacific, smooth as a pond,
glittering in sunlight, and
stretching west 7000 miles.
Fold (ho Pacific over, to the
cast, on your mereiitor projec
tion 'map, and it. covers the
1'nited States and reaches out
toward Constantinople. It's n
big ocean, and who knows whai
mines and oiy wells arc 'under
it. Giant industrial submarines
will go looking for thein some
day. Mr. Owen 1). Young, chair
man of General Elect rb, should
start that. It would be made
more amusing and worth while
than the presidency.
'
From another window, you
look over ranges of mountains,
stretching farther than the eye
can reach, all covered with
bunch grass, clover, wild onts,
and live oak trees, so brilliant
ly green that it seems unnat
ural. You would enjoy a ride over
these .mountains to the Pico!
farm, part of the 240,000-acre
ranch, and to the "Haras" for
Arabian horses.
Don Poncho rides along, get-j
ting on and off as lightly as a!
boy. To him the 20-miles ride
up and down steep mountains
sides, is only "a little exercise
before breakfast, to start the
day." '

Program Prepared by Commit
tees of Two Houses May Be
Introduced Today Will Not
Wipe Out All State Tax on
Property
SAI.KM, Ore., Feb. 17. () Tho
tax proKrum prepared by the tax
committees ot the two houses in
coiiHiiltntlon with the state tax
comniiHsinu again underwent revi
HioiiB when the niuin tax bills to be
introduced were finally decided on.
They will he Introduced In the
bonne, probably today.
As formulated several days ago
tills program was designed to wipe
out completely the state tax on
property, beginning next year. Re
visions since, however, Indicate
that this cannot be accomplished,
and provisions going into the new
intangibles tax bill relative to ex
emptions, and particularly to gen
eral Interest offsets, make It dif
ficult to conjecture how near the
measures will come to a complete
relief of property as far as the
state tax is concerned.
Fix Intagibles Tax
The now intangibles bill will, fix
a rate of 8 per cent on Incomes
from Intangibles instead of the 5
per cent of the old unconstitutional
act. The bill will first apply to
1931 Incomes, collectible In 1932.
It was first planned to apply It
first to 1930 incomes, collectible
this year, and on UiIb collection at
the 8 per cent rate tax leaders ex
pected a return of tl,180',000. Since
the retroactive provision for 1930
has been abandoned, and reckoning
on some natural increase In 1931
Incomes, the first regal returns
would be an estimated $2,000,000
collected In 1932 had tt not beeu
for revisions last night.
Offset Worrlet '
Tho main change in the plan,
aside from, the, Increase in . rate,
and the one that Is causing the tax
commission the most worry, IS one
providing an offset for all Interest
paid by the taxpayer, regardless
of Whether it Is paid on borrowed
capital invested in Intangibles or
on money borrowed for any other
purpose. This, it is said, makes
estimated returns under the . bill
beyond conjecture. .
Another change Is that the ex-'
emptlon for single persons shall
be determined by subtracting from
11500 the taxpayer's net income
from ull sources, and for married
persons by subtracting similarly
from $2500. ....
Slight Excise Change
No changes are made in the cor
poration excise tax except the In
crease from 5 to 8 per cent, and
tho income tax remains as approv
ed by the people In November ap
plicable first to 1930 Incomes. J
The tithing bill was Introduced
by Senator J.. E. Bennett of Mult
nomah county. Estimated to yield
$750,000 a year. It Is solely for tbe
purpose of eliminating the state

17. Now horn is something
you mtiHii't Ret wron.. The
Kovcrnment Saturday passed' a
bill to appropriate $20,000,000
as a loan to farmers in the

loaned on security. Now the

hungry down there have no
security. If he had any security
ho wouldn't be hungry; he
would have already put it up.
So this loan bus not relieved
