No. 192. 1 A Ml Ml KM FBflB Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS. THS ELEVENTH measure on the bsllot Is known ss the tax super vising and conservation bill. Putting it briefly, it proposea lor each county in the state a super board of three members, non-salaried, which will have power to review and REDUCE, If it so chooses, levies made by the regular tax-levying bodies. The bill Is one of three sponsored by the governor's tax reduction com mittee. SUCK a board, as you can readily see, would have a lot of power. II it were made up of the right kind of men. It might do a lot of good. Under certain circumstances, it might con ceivably do some harm. - Its value would depend entirely on the kind of men composing the board. THIS writer will vote FOR the meas. ure, without flaming enthusiasm, not expecting It to accomplish much; voting for it chiefly on the grounds of willingness to try anything once if it looks like a good Idea. IT IS this writer's belief, repeated 1 over and over in this column, that effective, permanent and WISE tax re. ductlon can't be brought about merely by passing a, law, for here In Oregon where we have direct legislation, the people can upset with their votes any law that they pass with their votes. Effective, permanent and WISE tax reduction can be brought about only by convincing a majority of those who vote that excessive tsxatlon Is unwise, unsound and antagonistic to the com fort, the happiness and the welfare Of EVERY PERSON. That, It la well to repeat, can be brought about only by education o the voting public. rvrsHE twelfth measure on the ballot A IS Known as tno personal luwurc tax law amendment bill. Its purpose la to INCREASE personal Income taxe rates and REDUCE exemptions. That Is to say, if this measure Is adopted, you will pay higher rates and get smaller exemptions assum ing, of course, that you are so fortu nate as to have a net Income to be taxed. THIS writer, who favors the prln 1 clple of Income taxation, will vote AGAINST this amendment, believing that existing rates are high enough and that raising them still higher will tend further to drive wealth out or Oregon and Into other states. THE thirteenth and last measure on the ballot Is known as the state I water power and hydro-electric con stitutional amendment. It ' Is in tended to strengthen the power bill adopted two years ago. Specifically, It permlta the legisla ture to Issue, without vote of the peo ple, SIXTY-FIVE MILLION dollsrs of additional bonds with which to put the etate into the power busi ness. tUST whst the sponsors of this aJ measure propose to do with this 865,000,000 Is not known. But a hint Is contained in the provision that development may be done "separately or with the United States." Apparently, somebody has It In mind to make it possible for the state of Oregon to help the govern ment in developing the water power resources of the Columbia. i That might be a good Idea, some day although Southern Oregon will always wonder what It has to gain out of development of the power re sources of the Columbia. Tns writer, who la not opposed to public development and owner ship of power resources If satisfactory rates and service can be obtained in no other way, will vote AGAINST thla amendment, believing that at present and for many years to come the state of Oregon haa all the debt It can hope to pay off and that It should not rush Into additional debt until its finances are In far better condition than now. THE sdvlce that has been here given on the bsllot measures Is merely the personsl opinion of one In dividual, snd Is not Intended to In fluence In sny way the opinions of anyone else. Tou should study these measures on the bsllot. They sre Important. Some of them affect In a materlsl wsy the future policies of the stste of Oregon.
