1IEDF0RD MXIL TKIBUXE, jrEDFORI), OREGON", FRIDAY, MAY II, 1934. PXGE NINE r V SALES TAX NEED Rate of Payment During First Period Not Main tainedOnly $398,548 of $1,408,013 Collected There la a definite need In Jackson county for the sales tax for school re lief according to figures obtained at the county court house, showing the extent and rate of tax collections for 1934, which reveal that collections are not coming In at the rate Indi cated toy opponents of the tax. The rate at which taxes were ap parently coming In during the first tax payment period la misleading, for It la not being maintained, the fig ures show. The total-amount to be collected In 1034 la $1,408,013. The total collected up to the end of March was 6398,548. The total amount paid In full, $301, 953.41, the amount paid In partial payments, $96,594.59. Cream of Crop In. During the first period a number of large tax assessments were paid In full. They represent the "cream of the crop," and will not be coming In again to make up the delinquency. Of the 9398,000 collected on the 1933 taxes during the first period, $128,000, approximately one third (32 per cent) of the total, was paid by three prop erty holders. Indications are that taxes from the small holders are com ing In slowly. This realization leads to another Important factor to be considered, the proportion of assessments that have been paid In full during the first period. The following figures show: Total number of real estate owner ships In the county 14,000. Number paying partially or In full, 6453. Number paying in full. 8143. Number making partial payment, 3310. Of the total 14.000 aeparat owner ships, who should have made some payment, only 89 per cent have paid partially or In full. Of these 3143 or 22.5 per cent was paid In full and 2310 or 16.6 per cent paid partially. Sixty-one per cent made no payment. Payments Blow Up. During the first 63 daya of the first quarter of the assessments paid, 69 per cent were paid in full. During the corresponding 63 days of the sec ond tax paying period, up to May 8, of the assessments paid, only 46 per cent were paid In full, showing a definite decline with the advancement of the season, that Is, approximately one-fourth more assessments were being paid In full In the first period than In the second period. And this slowness In paying Is seen In spite of the three per cent rebate offered under the new law. Those persons and companies, which have paid In full, will not pay again and the number of full payments were steadily decreasing near the end of the last period. At this rate a decrease for each of the succeeding quarters la the natural expectation. The first to pay were the ones, which are always the first to respond to the call, and the ones which usually do pay In full. Their taxes having been paid, the problem of delinquency la not les sening. Up to the end of March there was a delinquency of 39 per cent for 1932 still on the books, and a delin quency of 31 per cent for 1931, The total of taxes charged on the 1932 roll was $1,332,343. The delin quency to the end of March was $514,- 621. The total on the 1931 roll wae $1,425,461. The delinquency for that year up to March, 1934, waa still $431.- 399, the figures on file at the county court house reveal. f NAMED FOR REVISION PORTLAND, May 11. (AP) J. D.
