propose! "the elimination of all
money." ThU looks like "hem"
-i.i r.rtit for what the mai-
Tldual bas already accomplished
THE outstanding problem of this coming Legislature will be
the same as that of the 1933 session TAXES, how to get
the money, particularly how to get the money for higher educa
tion and our public schools.
Word comes from Salem that the total property tax for
Oregon this year, will be $94;)504,405, the' lowest total in 13
years, a decrease of about $15,000,000 over last year.
e e
THIS sounds like good news until one realizes the reduction
is due to a decrease in assessed valuation, rather than in
the levy, and that it will result in a reduction of the millage
revenue for higher education of $31,000; and about the same
reduction for elementary schools.
With cash money due to delinquency insufficient before, this
further reduction will make the educational situation even more
perplexing. And the problem of the excessive property tax
burden will remain as oppressive as before.
What to dol . '
,If this writer knew no doubt his services would be greatly in
demand in Salem after the first of the year.
But he doesn't. We doubt very much if anyone else does.
It is the old question of what happens when an irresistible force
meets an immovable body.
THE logical way out would be to follow California's example
nnrl nrlnnr. a sains tnx. but from all we can learn, a sales tax
will have no more chance in the 1935 Legislature, than a China
man in Tokio.
So obviously the only recourse will be to search for other
sources of rovenue. 1
Whero arc they! At the present writing the Mail Tribune
can only sec one, namely in the auto license field. The flat $5
auto license which contributed so materially to the popularity
of Joe Dunne, nevertheless represented a loss of over $3,000,000
to the Btate treasury over the formcii graduated license system.
Moreover the law which forced the owner of a Tin Lizzie to pay
as much for running a car worth $200, as the man who drove
car worth ten times as much, was inherently unjust, for it
violated the fundamental principle of sound taxation which is
placing the heaviest tax burden upon those best able to pay.
Either returning to some equitable form of graduated tax,
or retaining the $5 fee as a license to operate and placing motor
cars again upon the personal property tax rolls, would un
doubtedly yield three or four million dollars a year, at least
on paper.

ersy on nntionnl housing between James A. Moffett,
housing administrator and Secretary o the Interior Ickes.
This is interesting. But it would be more interesting to
know on winch side of the issue, the President stands. For it
appears to this paper as rather an important matter.
IT will be recalled Secretary Ickes last Thursday announced
the government would enter upon an extensive housing con
struction campaign, building homes on a 3 percent interest
charge.
Tho following day Administrator Moffatt announced this
would wreck his own housing program, which was based upon
private industry doing the job, via private bank financing
which'" it WOl'LR r
A tense situation immediately existed. From Warm Springs
the President conferred with both leaders, via long distance, and
following this both announced there were no differences be
tween the two departments.
THAT can be told to Sweeney I There were, and unless one
or the other has backed down, there still are.
Did the President tell Moffett to go ahead, and Ickes to
forget it, or was his advice the other way around T
The country is entitled to know. The Ickes proposal means
more federal competition with private industry, the Moffett pro
posal means less. the first is another turn to the left, the latter
a sharp turn in the opposite direction.
In tho interest of a clearer understanding of the future
policies of the administration, it is regrettable that President
Roosevelt didn't frankly state, which of his official family he
backs up in this particular controversy,
We have a high opinion of Ickes' honesty, ability and liberal
ism. Put in this particular instanco we hope the "chief" patted

YOU SEE, It is passible to
make the lumber Industry a PER
MANENT industry. The Idea that It
Is a temporary Industry that lasts
a little while and then Is gone for
ever, Is purely an American Idea.
MR. CORNWALL told of a logging
canal which, presumably, la a
canal built to float logs to market ,
that was constructed In 1789, and i
Just as good now as when It was"
built. Not only that, but they're
still floating logs down It.
That gives some idea of the per
manence of the lumber Industry in
the old country.
ERE In Oregon, people talk oi
the time when the lumber in
dustry will be gone and will have
to be supplanted by something else
If we are to have a continuing pay
roll.
There la no gcod reason why the
lumber Industry EVER SHOULD dis
appear.
They've proved that In Europe.
HERE'S something to think about;
The private forests of Germany,
Mr. Cornwall said, are owned by the
BIG people. About the farthest down
in the social scale they got in their
visits, he said, was a baron, and from
that It ranged on up through counts,
princes, etc.
About the smallest number of but
lers In attendance at a meal, he In
timated, was five.
GERMANY has been having new
deals for generations. They have
unemployment Insurance, old age
pensions, and about all the rest oi
the new social laws we're talking
about ao actively right now, and ten
years back they had Inflation that
WIPED OUT DEBTS.
Yet, you see, the bulk of the prop
erty still seems to be in the hands
of a relatively small number of peo
ple. You can't get around human nature.
ANOTHER thing;
These big timber operations, he
said, have attached to them a stall
of workers, more or less hereditary
in their character, the Jobs having
been handed down from father to
son.
These workers seem to be pretty
well taken care of under ths pater- ,
nallstlc system In operation in Ger- 1
many, having a pretty fair measure j
of what the politicians In this coun-1
try are now referring to as "security.
BUT LISTEN; i
They have no automobiles ana
no radios and no .washing machines
and no fancy new parlor furniture,
and they have little hope of striking'
It rich soms day and putting on 1
dog. And they're exceedingly respect
ful toward the big shots, such as the
barons and the counts and the
princes.
Thta rugged Individualism of ours.
that Is Just now so unpopular among
the politicians, may have Its draw
backs, but It also has Its points.
