PAGE TWO jrEDFOTlD MATE TRIBUNE, SfEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDSY, DECEMBER 2, 1932. CAREOFDISlED BRINGS MILLIONS TO OREGON PURSE "Hundred of thousand! of dollars that now are coming annually Into Oregon will b withheld from the channels of business, and Instead, the burden of higher local and state taxes will occur If organized groups suc ceed tn stopping various benefits now existing under law for disabled vete rans," says L. C. Oarlock, Medlord Le gion post commander, who quotes statement by Louis A. Johnson, na tional commander of the American Legion. In the statement just Issued, the national commander said, In part, as follows: The chamber of commerce of the United States, through Its (legitimate or Illegitimate?) stepdaughter, -'Nel as the American Legion has come to know the National Economy league, la seeking, through misrepresenta tion to unduly alarm the country re garding the cost of caring for dis abled veterans. Admiral Byrd Is the spear-head for 'Kel' In touring the country. He Is the distinguished son of a distinguished family and while I have naught to say against him personally, I believe that unwittingly and unintentionally ha Is the stalking horse for that comparatively small group whose profits In one year (1038) were 90,300,000,000. "The opposition of this group to the care of the disabled has been traced to the fact that out of their huge profits they pay a large share of the federal Income tax, and If the care of the disabled Is curtailed their taxes can be reduced because the burden can then be shifted to the little fellow or local tax payer, few of whom pay or know very much about any federal Income tax. In the year of our greatest prosperity, 1028, this group of opponents pstd a total federal income tax of $008,000,000. leaving them an average net Income of $.130,000 each out of their more than six billion dollars' profits. "If their scheme should succeed, It la easy enough to understand that Oregon would Immediately have sevs ral thousand disabled veterans thrown upon the mercy of the local communities. Many of these disabled men would have no means of support, and Instead of spending federal pay ments for groceries, medicine, cloth ing, etc., would be objects of charity. "Therefore, the channels of trifle In the communities of Oregon would lose that Income now coming to them and In addition, the local taxes for the upkeep of local hospitals county farms and other Institutions would Increase. This does not take Into eon alderatlon the human misery Involved, nor the fact that It Is cheaper In the end to cure these men and to restore them to self-support. How much wiser to 'cure rather than 'curse.' " r , ( ' ' f W GASOLINE SALES TO 1927 LEVEL 8ALEM, Dm 1. (AP) Ouollnj consumption In Oregon during th month of Octobsr lipped back to a level of five yean ago and distil late ealea for the aame month were the lowest In 13 yean, a atatlatlcal report on motor vehicle fuel tsxas, releaaed today by Bal B.

Probably the largest factor In the heavy ehrlnkage of fuel consumption la the decreased use of motortiad farm equipment, Hoes eald. "Further evidence of decreased fuel consumption by agricultural enter prises Is shown by the gasoline tax refunds which were 84067.47 less last month than those of the previous month," the secretary pointed out. Refunda allowed during November, based on October fuel consumption, were 867.58733 while 873.474.70 tax refunda were allowed by the depart ment In September fuel sales.
