Whether or not park roads will be open next wlntei depends largely upon the volume of travel into the park and the Interest of southern Oregon residents In making Crater lake trips, the club waa Informed.

The tax measure passed at the legislative special session, designed to .speed up payment of taxes, seems to have worked with reverse "English" in this county. f The legislative act remitted back Interest and penalty on delinquent taxes for 1934 and prior years with the payment of current taxes. Taxpayers who have past due ohargea against them are not paying old claims because they have discov ered they can wait " until April 15, 1936, and still claim the benefit of the penalty and Interest remission bill. Other property owners who owe only current taxes are hesitating or refusing to pay because they believe the legislature played Into the hands of individuals and corporations who have not paid taxes as due. The result, county officials say, is that tax payments which were strong prior to the legislature, have been sharply reduced.
