THE ONLY WAY TO EEDU0B TAXES
IT' IS. really rather a Burprisinp tiling' that Oov'f'nior Jleier
"k!io(i1c1 'ever have favored the Indiana plan of tax control. '
For Governor M'eier is a firm Believer ill the intelligence and
wisdom of the people of Oregon, and his strength lies in the
support he receives from them not from the politicians or hig
business, hut from the masses, from the rank and file.
lie has the people with him; Hut this Indiana plan is built
Rrpiarcly upon the assumption that these same people are not
competent to rule themselves., '
The Indiana, plan, for example, would transfer, cojitrol of
taxes in Jackson County, from the taxpayers of Jackson County;
to a bureau in Salem, the people of the county would have noth
ing whatever to say about their own affairs.
'..'.
""UVICH'.SI.Y the only justification for such drastic action
such unessentially un-American proposal would be the con
viction that the people of Jackson County couldn't 1)0 trusted
to manage their own all'iiirs, that a bureau in Salem would have
to do the job for them. What would be true of Jackson County
would be true of every self-governing unit in the state.
We repeat, it is difficult, to understand how Governor Meier
ever came to favor this Indiana plan, which is such a complete
repudiation of the political principles, upon, which the strength
of his administration is based.
,,.,
"TpIIAT be now reuilize his mistake, is indicated by tlicfa,ct
that Ids state tax committee, refused to accept the Indiana
tillin, and has so modified it that both its purpose and spirit have
teen completely changed. ,
Instead of placing tax. control in a Salem bureau, or leaving
it where it was iu.the ta-xpaying unit, it'is put in the linnds of
o joint committee, 'made lip of the state tax commission on one.
hand, and the local tax committee on the other, a majority
of this joint committee to determine the final outcome
This is n compromise which, like most compromises, we fear
will satisfy neither, side.' .

AH A matter of fact, in our opinion, the ONIY WAY TO RK
nri'f'i.i tavus m Tri numu u.TiiuAr. v ,i,.,.'. u.
lievc calling a special session of the Legislature is going to help
nialerially, and we dou't believe this modified Indiana plan is
going to bel materially. ':
What is'goiiig'to help and tlie! only thing that -eau helw
IS TIIH FOUt'H OF 1'UIIIjIC Ol'I.VIONI Instfiid of a special
session and passing more laws, making this force moro effective,

onisms, make, it less so. i ..
THE FOREST FIRE SITUATION
TlIK forest fire situation in Southern Oregon is a serious one.
A Willi no rain in, prospect, with the hot period in full blast,
and with many unemployed,' everything conspires to defeat the
forces of forest protection and conservation.
3ii 'normal'timcs hiiiily fires are set to provide employment,'
in the inid-Hiiinmer between the growing and burVest periods.
Hut this year, with hundreds out of work, this temptation' is in
creased ninny fold.
Last Saturday we printed an editorial from a Santa Barbara
paper showing the necessity of forest 'conservation, as a vital
factor-in tlii growth and prosperity of the Pacific Coast. The
value of, iho standing timber, destroyed is really a minor item,
ompared with the effect on the rainfall and the productivity of
the land.'' ' '
!R BOON'S greatest natural asset lies in its standing timber
and the rainfall it insures. Kvery destructive forest fire
not only represents a loss to the owners of the timber, but a fu
ture lt,)ss to .every resilient of the state.
ft hlis been suggested that the only way to eliminate inaen-
diarism at this time of year would be fiir the .government nnd
glntrs to, join; in forming a permanent forest, fire department,
large enough to handle any tire situation without volunteer aid.
This would seem to bo rather an extreme measure and an
expensive one; but. perhaps something of the sort will have to
bo done, if the ultimate destruction of our forests is to be pre-
ented. 1 .

'(Thanks, Pierre." he said.

Pierre Joyously, 'Had to give it to

Pierre and Bruce stood looking
after her. Slowly Pierre turned, to
Bruce. "What's the trouble, Bruce
what's, Ann crying about?"
I. Bruce did not answer, but moved
about uneasily: Pierre grew more
and more, disturbed. "What's the
matter with you and Ann, Bruce?"
Bruce paused before Pierre and
regarded him doubtfully, -Tsi-not

..- ."Why.-'notfc Is Ann crying 'be

money for you, It's been on Ann's
account I don't mind for myself,
pinching along like we have to on
my measly bank-clerk salary, but It
hurts to see Ann slaving without
even a woman to wash and iron for
her. I don't want Ann to work her
self to death like so many. of, these
Orchard Hill, women do. If she
didn't love beautiful things like she
does or if she wasn't the kind who
could really appreciate sucb things
It wouldn't matter so much but
you know how One Ann Is. I'd like
for Ann to have the home she
dreams about and. all that woman
uk ner deserves. : And well
she's counted too much, I guess, on
what this .Nevada gold mine, was
going to do for Ker. We can't

But, Bruce." cried Pierre des
perately, "Ann has been urging. me
all, along., not to let you have my
money. She, wants ma. to go to
school to prepare myself to be an
actor, as I. have always planned
ac. mother planned for me before
she died.". ... , . . '
Sure, I know. That's Ann. She
would make any sacrifice for you,
Pierre. But Just the same sho fol

I Ann, Pierre. 1 told her you didn't

"That's- right.. I haven't real-

"I know you haven't, .and she
knows it, too; but i hurts Just the

"Sure, I knpw. A.'year. wouldn'tV
make jo much difference.- Are you

Bruce." I ligure that there's barely
enough for me to, scrape through

some sort ot a part in some play."
"I know what you. have, Pierre.
I looked up your -account In pur
bank.-. You drew it all. out this.
afternoon too."
, As. it In a dream , Pierre-slowly
drew, a package, of, bills, Jrom- bis
pocket and gave It to Bruce: "I ,1
neve.- realized about Ann,"-he said,
l Bruce, as be put the money In his
pocket, said: "She. would give tue

You'll never regret thls..Plrre:v!t.

i "Yeah." returned Pierre, "I'm awfully-
glad 1 can- do something tor
Ann."
Before tbey. could, say, anything:
more Martin Bevia entered: with
bat and cane. ."That panideq,. train

Ann, coming in, with' the bag she
had packed for Bruce,. asked. "What1
time is It now. Pa?!'.. ; ; ';
As. Martin drew, his watch from
Mr. pocket a . massive old-fasliloiie,l
Masonic charm came loose from

Martin cried: "I've dropped my
