PXGE TEN JfEDFORD MAIL TRIBrjNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 17, 1935, BILLINGS TELLS 0-C POLICY ORAM MEET Favor Hands Off Policy For Government Until Laws Passed To Provide Equiv alent For Tax Returns. County Commissioner rtalpb 8. Billings of Ashland, secretary of the executive committee of the eighteen western Oregon counties, coming the Oregon and California, land grant tax refund law, has returned from Eugene where he attended a conference of the committee on a new program, to be followed by the Jand grant counties. In the closing sessions of their meeting the committee members passed a resolution that It Is the sense of that committee that no approval of federal acquisition of privately owned timber land should be made by the Oregon board of forest conservation and that no con sent for such approval should be given by any county court until the United States government shall have provided by appropriate legis lation for the payment by the gov ernment of the equivalent of taxes upon any timber lands acquired from private ownership. Iteromtnr mint Ions Drawn Recommenatlons of the executive committee, anent the Oregon-California land grant counties policy, to be submitted to the state planning board proposes that the grant lands be handled on a yield basts, deemed to be equal to 25 per cent of the annual sustained yield of the grant, with two nurpOHes, (1 ) to build a new state cnpltol, (2) to estab lish an irreducible fund, the inter est from which would be used for reforestation and as a perpetuity or Requisition, protection, and admin istration of state-owned forests. The committee further r-nm-mended, according to Commissioner BlUlngs; "That lmtead of the transfer ol the net portion of the grant, that Is, that portion remaining after there has been transferred to the forest Bervlco enough to retire the present deficit, that Instead of the forest service handling the balance In 1U cnpitclty as a trustee, the whole grant pass Into the national forest: that the government acquire that grant substantially on the basis that it expect to acquire prl Tnto property by paying for It. by buying from the state of Ore gon Its beneficial interest In It. The value of the grant Is reasonably 820.000,000, based on a stand ot 40.000,000,000 feet of timber at 60 cents a thousand as an average value. "The grant would be reduced in amount substantially 7,000.000.000 to take care of the deficit to the government and between $500,000 and $1,000,000 to take care of county accrued claims, the total reduction being $8,000,000, leaving $12,000, 000 capltnl value there. Counties Wuultf He Protected "Our suggest Ion Is that of that mount, $2,000,000 of that be re served to the federal government aa a trust fund to take care of payments of tax equities until sale of timber under suHtalned yield will meet the annual requirement. Prom the balance of $10,000,000 there should be set aside whatever la nec essary to co nut met a state capltol for Oregon, say $4,000,000; and the balance, In the neighborhood ot $0,000,000, be paid to the etate ox Orrgon and become an Irreducible fund the Interest of which will be used In perpetuity for acquisition of state-owned forets,,t chances of any action being taken at the present session of congress. re considered remote and It was felt that none should be taken until the O.
