PAGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, .AUGUST 24, 1933. Papers of State Divided On Calling Legislature For Creation Sales Tax Publishers Are Polled as Governor Calls For Opinions in Emergency No Alternative Given (Rj the A'Mtclated Press) A division of opinion u to th propriety of a special ules . tax to lnsurs a fund through which Oregon could icAtch federal money to pro vide relief for an estimated 120,000 unemployed persona this fall and winter, waa evident among dally newupapers of the state today. At a meeting In Portland Tuesday In which Governor Julius h. Meier called In legislative leaders, .tax au thorities, heads of relief organisa tions and chairmen of olvlc organi sations, the special sales tax appear ed to be the only plan through which the money, admittedly neces sary, could be raised. The governor said be would sound out public opinion through the press and other channels before making his recom mendations for a spectal session. Press Tolled The Associated Press undertook a survey of Oregon's dally newspapers to learn the viewpoint of the press at this preliminary stage of the dis cussion. The MORNINO OREOONIAN en dorsed the special sales tax aa the only reasonable source of revenue. The CAPITOL JOURNAL at Salem announced It would support the plan and the Oregon Statesman of that - city stated editorially today that It will not oppose the special sales tax, although It believes the suggestion will be futile. That paper believes Governor Meier should have called known antagonists of the sales tax to attend the meeting Tuesday. 1'iihllc opposed The LA GRANDE OBSERVER stat ed that "The recent election proved the publto is overwhelmingly opppos ed to the sales tax, and any attempt to foster the same tax through forc ed legislation should be opposed to the last letter. A special session, however, could do muoh, If It would, to right the laxities of the last ses sion, and there must be some ade . quata regulation of the liquor situa tion." Th BAKER DEMOCRAT-HERALD Is of much the same opinion, al though endorsing a apeclal session to deal with unemployment relief, liq uor control and any other subjects that demand Immediate attention. "We will not support a plan, for levy ing a salea tax," this dally said, "be cause the people have Just said by an overwhelming majority that they do nut want a sales tax and wo think their views should be respected In asmuch as It la their government. We did not oppose a salea tax at the July election, and we would not op pose It now but for tii manifest de termination of the people not to ac cept It. Its enactment by the legis lature would In all probability be followed by a referendum which would plunge the state's financial affairs Into further chaos." Borne In Favor. On th other hind, ttas DAILY CHRONICLE at The Dalles announc ed that It endorsed the proposed sslea tax, and will support such a propo It Ion. The KLAMATH FALLS EVENING HERALD and the MORNINO NEWS there announced both "probably would be generally favorable to a sales tax for unemployment relief. but would recommend that all other plans be studied and presented to the public before any single plan Is seriously advanced, Inasmuch as the sales tax Idea was once defeated." Both papers approved the general sales tax for property tax relief at the special election. The MEDFORD MAIL- TRIBUNE favors calling a special session of the legislature to provide funds for un employment relief and for the regu lation of liquor. In anticipation of repeal of the 18th amendment. It believes, also, that "opponents of the sales tax should present their alter native to the sales tax In detail be fore the session Is called, or admit they have no plan." At Koseburg, the NEWS REVIEW feels that, In view of the overwhelm ing disapproval of the general sales tax at the last leectlon. "such a measure should be a last resort in raising funds to relieve unemploy ment." The paper said It would ap prove the sales tax "only If and when It Is found that no other plan can be successfully carried out." The COURIER at Grants Pass op posed what Is described as a "politi cal "buildup"' for a special, legisla tive session and a state salea tax, and called on the Josephine county delegation to Institute and support a "county first" drive. Tho EUOENE REGISTER-GUARD says: "If we adopt a defeatist atti tude we might as well quit now. The political dangers of a special session are tver present. The dangers of continued drifting are greater. Every property owner and ever parent of school children knows the present crista in state and local finances is a real one. The suggested sales tax msy not be the answer but an an swer can be found and Vie people will not tolerate a session that plays horse." Meteorological Report August 24, 1!33.
