EUROPEAN LEADERS CONCLUDE STRESA TALKS bill Is exactly In line with the posi tion taken by Orrgon county courts In connection with the timber acqui sition bllt passed by the last legisla ture, when courts endeavored to se cure an amendment to require pay ment In lieu of taxation, the senate bill has been given unanimous ap proval by the executive committee of the association of counties. The Ore gon delegation is being urged to do everything possible to advance early passage of the bill. "The enactment of legislation of this kind, the courts feel," Cordon said, "is absolutely necessary for the protection particularly of western states where the federal government contemplates purchase of merchant able timber and so-called sub-marginal' lands, which are now contrib uting their share of tax revenue. Requires County Consent "The timber acquisition bill finally passed by the state legislature," Cor don explains, "requires the consent of county courts before the federal gov ernment can acquire any privately owned lands In Oregon, and the coun ties are resolved to withhold Buch consent until legislation Is adopted bv congress to pay to the counties the equivalent of taxes upon landb withdrawn. The acqulstlon of timber In tlu amounts recommended by federal of ficials would represent a tax loss i western Oregon of approximately on million dollars annually unless this proposed legislation Is enacted Into law. The courts have taken the po sitlon that the remaining taxpayers simply could not carry this additional load and that It Is therefore impera tive that the government take steps to bear its Just share of local tax burdens in proportion to the value 01 lands it acquires."
