GILL'S IDEAS ON
TAX LEGISLATION
(Continued tnjm p-age one)
our best citizens to accept this office.
Something must be done to make our
legislature less cumbersome and more
responsive to the people."
Charging that prohibition was re
pealed on promises that temperance
would be promoted, he declared that
liquor interests "do not even stop at
bebauchlng the youth of our land."
He proposed that Oregon reduce the
number of liquor stores, halt deliv
eries to customers, and provide local
option by precincts.
AAA Held Wrong Idea
Commenting upon the agricultural
adjustment act and the national re
covery act, the Grange master de
clared that, while crop restrictions
must be used, the farmers of Amer
ica ' cannot be forced to submit to
regimentation of their crops and that
the ' problem must be approached
from a different angle.
"Much can be accomplished," he
declared, "by withdrawing marginal
and sub-marginal lands from culti
vation, but I am convinced we have
been thinking too much about crop
reductions rather than increased
consumption.
"Taxation," he insisted, "continues
to be the big headache for those
who legislate, administer or pay. Mil
lions in property tax relief were lost
by the repeal of the Pierce Income
tax law, and millions more were lost
because a. selfish group has continu
ously fought Income tax laws or their
improvements. The tremendous bur
den that brought property taxes to
the breaking point can be largely
charged to extravagances, tax exempt
securities, and tax-dodging resistance
to Income and inheritance taxes.".
For More Income Tax
: Concentration of wealth, he declar
ed, has much to do with the burden
of taxes and debt, and advocated
that a greater part of the burden be
placed upon persons with large in
comes by means of income, inherit
tance and gift taxes striklnj In the
higher brackets. The nation cannot
expect to return to prosperity as long
as the" masses of people have so little
purchasing power, he insisted. He
urged further currency inflation to
reduce Interest rates.
"All the new deals ever proposed
will avail little until this economic
injustice is righted," he told the con
vention. To Aid Education
Discussing the subject of educa
tion, he pledged the Oregon Grange
to support educational activities, and
urged that efforts be made to secure
a greater share of federal funds for
school purposes. Money for schools
should be raised by income taxes he
insisted, rather than from a sales tax
on the necessities of life.
The speaker advocated federal
banking, state control of gasoline,
and state controlled power distribu
tion. He urged the Grange to oppose
the chain retail store system, and to
give greater co-operation to organ
ized marketing of farm products,
Farmers were also urged to take a
greater Interest -in tourist travel, as
agriculture, he stated, receives me
greatest benefits.
F
That the current controversy, over
who was the first white boy born in
Jackson county is not new, is at
tested by a clipping handed in today
by Mrs. Clara Barkdull of Medford.
The time yellowed clipping, which she
has treasured for over 40 years, was
taken from some pioneer paper pub
lished in the county, but she does not
now remember the name. It reads
as follows:
"To the editor: The statement
made at the pioneer reunion as to
Basil Dairy being the first white boy
born in Jackson county Is all a mis
take. He was not born in Jackson
county, but his parents came to
Jacksonville when he was a baby;
they came In 1852. Neither can Wal
ter Gore claim the honor. Bruce
Evans was the first white boy born
In Jackson county. He was .born in
Jacksonville In August, 1852. All real
pioneers know this to be a fact and
Mollie Ross was the first white girl
baby born In Jacksonville, Jackson
county, Oregon. (Signed) A Pioneer."

OREGON DIAMOND JUBILEE COMMITTEE
o
William C. Lindsay, who led a party
of searchers through the wilds of the
Dead Indian country for the bodies
of E. C. Brown and wife, Hattle,
homesteaders, who perished in a bliz
zard that raged over that area In
January, 1932, has filed suit against
Jackson county for $773 for services
rendered in the hunt. The claims
of six other searchers have been as
signed to Lindsay.
The snow-covered bodies of the
Browns were found in the early spring
of 1932, beside a log after a search
that proceeded intermittently for 42
days. The Browns left the home of
A, R. Cooley, a neighbor, where they
were visiting, near the close of a
snowy January after-noon for their
own cabin, which they never reached.
They lost their way In the storm and
the wild country. The Browns hailed
from California, and were building a
home In the wilderness.
The attorney general of Oregon, in
an, opinion, ruled that the county
court had no authority to pay the
claims of the searchers.
Lindsay, an experienced tracker,
headed the search, and sets forth
that he 'did so upon the Instructions
of then Sheriff Ralph G. Jennings,
and then coroner Henry W. Conger.
The search extended through the
months of February, March and April,
1932.
Lindsay filed a claim for $126. The
others, assigned to him are: s W. R.
Taylor, 126; Mike Taylor, $135; John
Farmer, $145; G. W. Farmer, $116.50;
Ivan Farmer, $66 and A. R. Cooley,
$72.
Attorney William Brlggs of Ashland
appears as counsel for Lindsay.
T CASE
Tl
The petit Jury for the circuit court
term has been called for next Thurs
day, June 14, and the first case listed
Is the appeal of Carl Anderson from
a decision of the probate court In his
claim against the estate of Ray H.
Toft. Anderson claims that by reason
of an agreement with Toft, he was to
be paid for services approximating
$1500. The probate court, in its find
ings, allowed a lesser amount.
Delay was experienced In starting
circuit court cases docketed, when
the first case scheduled was withdrawn.
The damage suit of James T. Kln-
kade against the sheriffs of Jackson
and Klamath counties for alleged false
Imprisonment, set for Tuesday, was
postponed because Klnkade is quaran-
Ore.
A second amended answer was filed
yesterday by Sheriff Low of Klamath
county setting forth that Klnkade was
arrested in legal manner, and ap
prised of his rights. It Is set forth
that a warrant was issued for Kin
kade's arrest in May, 1932, upon a
non-support charge, filed by his wife,
who later declined to testify against
htm.
Klnkade seeks $2500 damages, alleg.
lng that while held In the Jackson
county Jail the "kangaroo court" fined
him, and that when he was removed
to the Klamath county jail the Judic
ial body of that bastile also fined
him, leaving htm without funds. He
also alleges that the warrant was
illegal and his arrest was without due
authority.
The local sheriff's office made the
arrest, upon a warrant for Klamath
county..

STILL IN EFFECT
Advices Just received from Wash
ington Indicate rates and practices of
the NRA trucking code will continue
and that no trucks are to be allowed
to operate below costs, according to
C. C. Thompson of the Association of
Commercial Truck Owners.
Mr Thompson further states that
all truckers who operate for hire must
register before June 14 if they wish to
have any say In the management of
the trucking code. Very little in
terest has been shown by truck owners
In the code In this state, so far, he
says, when In reality the NRA should
benefit the smaller truck owners more
than anything else could, providing
the state code authority represents all
groups of operators, and does not
represent only a small portion or
group of the industry.
Mr. Collins of the Brown and White
Realty Co., Is the registration officer
for Jackson county.
