Oregon Tax Limitation
Situation Explained
Editor 'a Note: This Is the third of a series of articles on the tax altu
talon In Oregon, written for this newspaper by Dr. Jamea H. Gilbert, dean
of the college of social science at the University of Oregon. Dr. Gilbert,
who la also professor of economics at the University, Is regarded as an
authority on the tax situation In the state of Oregon and 1 frequently
consulted by state officials and others.
Tax Limitation and Reduction
Procniftleun Treatment of Budgets.
By JAMES If. GILBERT.
What should be trie trend of gov
ernmental budgets In the future? No
economist or public official can give
a certain answer. AH depends on the
expansion or curtailment of public
functions. If the onty "safe guide
to the future Is found In the experi
ence of the past," functions and ser
vices are not likely to be curtailed
rather extended.
Still another tincertaln factor af
fecting the money cost of government
Is the probable price level of the fu
ture. The price level of the present
Is stilt 30 percent under that of 1926.
Even though Inflation be controlled
and currencies managed, prices may
rise 25 to 30 percent In the next five
years.
With rising costs of living, wagcj
and salaries of public officials should
bo adjusted to a higher level. Pay
cuts were upheld on the ground of
falling costs of living and Increased
buying power of tho dollar. It's a
poor rule that won't work both ways.
It Is a well known fact ttiat salaries
on public employment In Oregon are
unduly low. They must be xippod
somewhat If private business undnr
the stimulus of returning prosperity
does not draw away the most com
petent publlo servants by the offer
of better pay.
In the face of almost certain In
creaso on tho money cost of govern
ment the tax limitation measure pro
pones a 30 percent cut from tho 1935
tax levy. It reminds one of tho story
of Procrustes, the old outlaw in
Greek mythology. He lured his vic
tims to his lair and tried them on
the famous bed. If the victim was
too short he stretched him out to
fit. If he was too long old Pro
crustes lopped off the overhang,
Sponsors of the amendment differ
from Procrustes In two particulars.
They assume that the victim Is 20
psreent too long and Instead of one
amputation the process Is mercifully
spread over a period of five years.

'OLD GANG' IS FLAYED
BY WILLIS MAHONE1
AT BOURBON RALLY
Principal Issue of the presidential
campaign Is whether "this govern'
ment of ours Is to be. turned back
to the old gang that brought the
wreck and ruin we faced In March,
1933," Willia Mahoney, Democratic
candidate for United States senator
told an audience of about 400 at
party headquarter, here last night,
"In other words," the Klamath
Falls mayor asked, "are we going to
turn our government back to Wil
liam Randolph Hearst, the DuPonts
and the Raskobs?"
"It is not the election of Mr. Lan-
don that matters," he continued "It
is the crowd behind him."
Mayor Mahoney analyzed various
Issues and told what ho would do
for Oregon if olected. He pictured
conditions existing four years ago
and contrasted them with conditions
existing today.
After declaring he would fight for
the Townsend .old age pension plan.
Mayor Mahoney said he expresses the
same attitude wherever he speaks.
"I have no cards up my sleeve tike
Charlie McNary," h atated In refer
ring to his Republican opponent.
The volatile mayor declared he has
had to carry his message directly to
the people by addressing audiences
In all parts of the state.
"Not a newspaper in the state Is
for me and If one waa I'd be suspic
ious of It," he aserted. "and if the
Me.lt Tribune ever said anything fav
orablo of me, I'd drop dead "
At the conclusion of his address
tho audience rose and gave Mayor
Mahoney three cheers.
Other visitors who spoke briefly
were Carl C. Donaugh, United States
attorney for Oregon, and J. T. Sum-
mervllle. United States marshal. Lo
cal Democratic nominees who gave
short talks included District Attor
ney Codding, Ralph Sweeney, can
didate for county treasurer, and Lew
H. Hansen, candidate for county as
sessor. L. R. Shurtleff presided.
An assembly program displaying
high lights from electrical displays
at the Century of Progress exposi
tion In Chicago was presented at the
Senior J.tgh school Tuesday morn
ing. The program and display, ar
ranged by the National Assemblies
production, was sponsored by the
Torch Honor society of the school.
A number of such education pro
grams have been scheduled by the
school for this year. The assemblies
are gotten together by the national
company and sent on tour of schools
and other organisations Interested. A
school club sponsors each group,
with students paying admission.
The demonstration this morning
included numerous Illustrations of
modern electrical science.
Physical examinations are now be
ing conducted at the high school
for both boys and girls and will con
tinue this week. The Inter-organlca
tlon debates will be started tomor
row and concluded Friday.

AT DETROIT VISIT
Auto Magnate Pictures Re
publican Candidate As
Business Man Who Knows
How To Make Ends Meet,
By William L. Beale
DETROIT, Oct. 14. (AP) Henry
Ford formally declared his support
for Gov. Alf ,M. tndon today as the
Republican presidential nominee pur
sued a cross state campaign for Mich
lean's 19 electoral votes.
"I admire and believe In him; I
tope he is elected," the motor car
manufacturer said In a statement
after conferring with the Kansas gov
ernor. "I am not criticizing the New
Deal," Ford continued. "I am only
saying that we have had enough of It,
we have had about all the country
can stand."
The veteran Industrialist, who talk
ed with Landon together with his son
Edsel, stated his position for the first
time just before Landon headed his
campaign forces toward Grand Rap
Ids. Landon Sees Threat
The candidate said the New Deal
was a "threat to our American form
of government" In an address last
night before thousands massed In the
chill windswept American league
baseball park.
' Concentration of power In the
hands of President Roosevelt, Landon
said In the third major address of his
lake states campaign, represented the
"first steps" toward destruction of
the "rights and liberties of the peo
ple" which would make the executive
"all powerful."
Promising, If elected, to ask repeal
of all laws "giving autocratic powers
to the chief executive,' Landon
called upon his Democratic opponent
to "tell us before election day Just
what amendments to the constitu
tion he has In mind."
This reference to the president was
followed by booes from tho audience.
Ford pictured Landon as "a busi
ness man who knows how to make
both ends meet," and who "ate out of
dinner bucket for years and still
thlnka along with the men who carry
dinner buckets."
Ford Well Impressed
'I ga'lned three very distinct Im
pressions of him," the tall, thin auto
mobile magnate said. "First, he Is
exceptionally well Informed and has
experience along many lines; second.
he Is able to apeak his mind In the
frankest way he Is open and honest
In hi opinions; third, he knows

where he stands because he has
thought things through."
Turning to the foclal security law.
Ford sp.ld "what disturbs me Is that
the New Deal la now making to the
workmen the same Impossible pro
mises that It made to the business
man.' ,
Ford said New Deal "Intentions
may have been good but Its perfor
mance was very poor."
"As a manufacturer." he said. "I
have been Its special target for about
three years, but I don't bold that
e gainst It It has kept me thinking.
Alt of us have to thank the New Deal
for keeping us on the alert for our
country."
Without naming Ford, Landon
drew applause In bis open air speech
when he said tho automobile Indus
try "resisted" NRA, and "one of Its
most distinguished . leaders never
signed the code of the blue eagle."
