DEBATE ON SALES TAX IS HEARD By (Continued from page one) fuel; tangible personal property for resale: poultry produce, as sold to the retailer, or such articles as fer tilizers, spray and smudge oil. "Farmers who conduct wayside stands will not be assessed unless sales total over $.10 a month." the speaker said. This exemption was made to cut down on the cost of col lection. "Retailers are the oolnt of attack," he said. Works Elsewhere. Mr. Brockway spoke of various sales taxes now In effect throughout the country. He stated that the Cali fornia tax exempts all sales up to IS cents. purchase at that amount being taxed one cent. In Mississippi, where there Is a two per cent tax. exemptions go to 20 cents, with 1 cent tax on any article up to 70 cents. two cents above that, etc. The distribution of the funds de rived from the Oregon sales tax was explained by Mr. Brockway, who said that 25 per cent net revenue Is dis tributed to the counties based on the ansRed valuation. This amount is turned Into the school fund. As the school census Is based on the number of persons In the dis trict between the ages of 4 and 20, whether or not they are In school, the levy In the county Is offset to the amount that Is derived from the 25 per cent net revenue. The other 75 per cent Is appor tioned on a classroom unit basis. A one unit Is considered 27 pupils with one teacher, and a two-clasa room unit la based on enrollment between 28 and 55. The unit apportionment Is made through the county school superintendent. Property Levy Offset. The entire amount brought In by the sales tax la offset In the levy against property, which, after July 1 1934, la to be distributed each month to the counties and districts. "The federal government," Mr Brockway declared, "gains 00 per cent of Its revenue from the Income tax The gasoline sales tax Is used for highway and road construction, and retirement of highway Indebtedness- Inheritance, gift, intangibles and per sonal refund taxes may be levied, but the balance must come from the property. According to Mr. Brockway. there Is now a 2.9 mills state levy on counn property. There Is also an Irreducible school fund, which Is apportioned to the district, amounting to about $1.11 per pupil. Pupils Cost $82 Yearly. "It costs about (8U a year to edu cate each pupil, and 98 per cent of that comes from levy on property," the legislator declared. "The credit of the schools la down, and you can't cash a warrant without a discount. This la general In the state." The primary purpose of adopting the tax Is to raise 5, 000 ,000 for the schools and to relieve property of that amount of tax. In the legislature. he said, public hearings were con ducted on various bills that might offer a solution to such a problem. It was considered to levy the state Income tax for the purpose of plac ing the amount In the school fund. "Wo would then have to find some- Mail Tribune Daily ACROSS U Scatter seed 4. Hastened 5.

"It wss even con-1 sldered to lower the amount of In come taxed, but under present condl- ; Hons that would bring In only 250. 000 in a year, or approximately one twentieth of the goal, if adopted. Income Tax Highest. 'Oregon haa the highest state In come tax In the United States, and thla year payment will be demanded on much lower salaries. H Is esti mated that approximately 40.000 more persons will pay Income tax in Ore gon this year, than last. Better make It In the form of a sales tax, for the wage earner or sal ary man, for otherwise It would be hard to get." References were made by Mr. Brock way to Industries that would not come to Oregon, Just to avoid the In coma tax here. Invites SURRestlon. Mr. Brockway challenged his op ponent to suggest a feasible Income tax measure to replace the sales tax. He stated that because of the sim plicity and ease of collection, and be cause It would solve the problem, house bill No. 110 was adopted by the legislative body. Every other meas ure wss explored before, he added. A brief history of the sales tax was given by Mr. Brockway who said that It was not a new form of taxation. for during the past 15 years many foreign countries have used it as a source of Income. Twenty per cent of the gross revenue In Franco la ob tained from a sales tax, 26 per cent In Belgium, and amount raised in other countries were also listed. "It has been used here on gasoline for a number of years," he said. "Six teen states are now using It, because they were in the same condition as Oregon. Some were even saved from bankruptcy by adoption of a sales tax. 5ucces Shown. Schools In California and Washing ton have been aided by the adoption of the sales tax, and the schools in Washington have been placed on a cash basis for the first time tn 12 years. Illinois and other states were cited as examples by the speaker, who said that all had been successful. Among the favorable features of the tax, given by him, was the fact that It Is a method of obtaining a low tax There are no exemptions all con tribute. No one la burdened unduly and the farmer, who spends $20 a month for taxable goods, pays a tax of SO cents a month, or $3.60 a year. "The white collar class, from whom we collect little now, Includes the school teacher, office men and clerks, the legislator said. "Leas than half of them pay, for few are hit by the Income tax. Another class we can not touch Is federal employes park. army and postofflce employes.1 The affirmative speaker denied re pented charges that big business and Wall street had anything to do with the adoption of the tax. Mr. Brock way was a member of the taxation committee, and declaring he knew the minds of the members, they pre ferred something besides a sales tax A referendum was threatened by lobbyists If the sales tax was men tloned, Mr. Brockway said. Rent Means Taken. "There were 13 grangers In the house and all voted for the bill I presume they were tools of Wall street. There was no thought In put ting over the sales tax other than for the reason it was the last measure that could be taken, and solve the problem. "Wall street was not represented among the lobbyists.

In concluding his 45-mlmite talk, Mr. Brockway said "I believe In an in- j come tax, and the committee be- j lteved In an Income tax. but tt has 1 Its place and there Is a limit to wha you can do with it. We believed we were doing our earnest duty In find ing a solution of the school and eco nomic problem." Rosa Kilns, master of Jackson County Pomona Orange. Introduced Mr. GUI. who presented an hour argument why he opposed the sales tax. Addressing the largest audience he had ever gone before to dlacuas the tax, Mr. Gill said he was opposed to such a tax In principle. "No emergency now, or ever will. come to Oregon making such a tax a necessity." he declared. "It Is a na tional movement big business and Wall street operating In the Oregon legislature." Delves Into History, Going further into the history ot the sales tax than did Mr. Brockway. Mr. GUI traced such a levy back to "ancient Rome, the downfall of Spsln, to China, the Philippine Islands. Mexico, and other countries j that have shown very little progress, j It Is now coming back strongly." I He told of attempts to pass a na tional sales tax In 11)21, following the war. Millions of dollars were spent In the campaign. The national grange. the federnl farm bureau and the farm union were opposed to the sales tax. and It was struck out because opposi tion was so great. "Big business oucs not chnnce lta tactics when defeated. It Immediately began working on a state program. Corporations are taking a lot of money out of the state, and this tax takes the burden off the big fellow, who can afford to pay." Excerpts from the Congressional Record, and from Robert W. Ruhl'fl editorial correspondence In the Sun day issue of The Mall Tribune, were read by Mr. Gill. Maintaining that the representa tives of utilities and big business were lobbying at the special session of the legislature, Mr. Gill declared: "I don't know where Brockway was if he didn't see them." Although declared the fairest of all taxes, the sales tax has been de feated time, and time again, the grange leader said. The law plainly etotes, he pointed out, that the tax muat be passed on to the consumer, and cannot be absorbed by the firm. In the campaign opposing the sales tax, Mr. GUI said the rnllroads fur nished 11000 of the 96000 fund, and thst an Investment house contributed $000 and another one $500. William Hanley, the "corporation farmer" of eastern Oregon put up 9100. Afraid of Referendum. After the sales tax voted at the regular session of the legislature was so badly defeated throughout .the state, the law making body came back 4',$ months later, with a measure ''a little different In provision, but the same In principle. They absolutely refused a referendum clsuse In order that it might go back to the people. "Why were they afraid to let it go back to the people? Because It con stituted Irrcspect for what the people had voted. I never' saw the speaker on the platform who didn't apologize for the sales tax." Mr. GUI said. Ax a solution to solving the need for school funds. Grange Master Gill suggested a revolving fund of a mil lion dollars, pulled In from funds now In use. The tax should be taken where they can get it," he declared, "in stead of from thow who are looking for the next meal." Bills were presented In Salem, he said, that would bring $500,000 from an Inheritance tax, and another which would furnish one and a quarter mil lions of dollars from a luxury tax. "It seems to me If they were going to tax anything it should be luxuries, and not necessities," he added. Although the grange haa never fa vored two cent gasoline tax, Mr. Olll referred to a one cent tax. He spoke of the Oregon Journal's move to reduce the number of exemptions in the tax plan from 00 per cent, as they stood. "Every few days the Ore gonian threw cold water on It," he said. Duplicity Charged. Oranger GUI charged that the legis lature wss more Interested In sav ing the salea tax than the schools. Thla Is a reflection on the schools. as well as on the laborer, the farmer, and the county and school adminis trations. Speaking of taxes that had not been paid, Mr. GUI said the people hadn't the money to take out of their pocket thst could be used to pay those taxes. He told of exemptions made "so that newspapers would not fight the sales tax." Amusements were left out, such aa prise fights, baseball, football, theaters, alao transportation the same as they left out the pub lishers." A measure waa passed at the na tional grange convention, according to Mr. Olll. which suggested that the national government turn over 26 per cent of the Income tax returns to the schools, without any strings School Allotment Told. School room unite were explained by Mr. GUI, who said that the super intendent turns over tioo to the unit with 37 pupils. If there are two tenrhers, and ftfl pupils, an additional MOO la given to the school, but If there are 40 pupils, and only one tescher, there la only $400 given the district. "It la Just like placing hay In front of a balky horse." Mr. Gill declared. "in order that they will hire another teacher. "Any district obtaining 900 from the state elementary school funds. conntv funds, etc., and Is not levy ln a peotal tax, can't get more than 000, Including the sales tax. This peniiri ina one mitt n iH-ajpii wu "Ninety per rent of the property in Oregon won't save hy the adoption of the sale tax but some will make a nice saving, Mr. Gill charged. "Fenny for Julius." The tax will handicap the mer chants, for It will restrict buying. In Mr. GUI's opin.on. Mall order clubs sre being formed, he said. He re marked about the milk bottles In California next to the cash registers, where the sales tax money was puced, and which bear the sign. "A penny for Jimmy." In Oregon. Mr. GUI said, the signs will rcsd "A Penny tor Julius." "Copeo Is assessed at $3,978,550, and on a four mill basis, they will save $15.914 32. This will necessitate their spending In retail sales, under the retail tax, a little oyer a million dol lars." Mr. GUI charged that merchants' would "chisel on the custumers," through the sales tax. A purchase of 35 cents, demanding payment of a one cent tax. will amount to four per cent tax, while 50 cent purchase makes a two per cent tax. "Merchants are opposed to this tsx." Mr. Olll said. "They want to do legitimate business and If once Imposed, the tax will bring ft depres sion of sales." Stating that nearly all the 16 states that have a sales tax do not have an tncome tax, Mr. Gill added: "If the people of Oregon are foolish enough to fall for that, they're different than what I think." He then asked me audience: "Did you ever see ft tem porary tax?" "The more you study tt, tne more willing you are to, kill the sales tax," Mr. GUI said. In concluding hla pre sentation. rirnckway In Rebuttal. In his 15-mlnute rebuttal Repre sentative Brockway said that he had no apologies for the sales tax. for he believes that It belongs In the tax avstem the same as the income tax. He suggested that if a national sales tax la to be adopted. Oregon should be smart enough to "get under the wire first while gettlngs good "What we have put over, was to re lieve the schools, and we did not com promise the schools to put over the sales tax." he said. He reminded his opponent that class legislation cannot be Imposed, and that he still main tained "a four mill reduction on property In the state of Oregon will be brought about by the measure, regardless." The farmer will not pay more tax than the average home owner. We have solved the problem ftnd made revenue for the schools to keep open, Brockway said. 4 Courthouse News (Furnished by the Jackson County Abstract Co. 13!
