Plan Draws
Criticism
Special Election
Declared Possible
Salem U.PJ Edward A
Geary, speaker of the Oregon
House of Representatives, today
predicted that a special election
might be necessary after the cur
rent legislative session ends for
the people to decide on a tax
program. .:- -
Both Geary and Elmo Smith,
Senate president, said they were
opposed to Gov. Paul Patterson's
plan to repeal the federal income
tax offset in the state income
tax law.' Under this plan, money
paid for federal income taxes
could not 'be . deducted when
state income taxes are figured.
More Honest Way :
'It would be-a tax on a tax.
Geary said. "Raising the income
tax rate would be a more honest
way of doing it" " Smith said,
we might have to do it, but it
should be only as a last resort
Geary said the people ulti
mately would decide' the ques
tion of new taxes. think we'll
have a special election," he said
If the people turn down the tax
program, they will be voting to
reduce services. " Smith -said
there was an "extreme likeli
hood" of a special election.
Strike May Result :. - ' ' -
Gearyajsoxpressed-fear that
a .taxpayers' strike, may result,
leading to -a ' serious problem of
school-financing, if . the state at
tempts to collect a property tax.
This was another method sug
gested ; by Patterson to . raise
more revenue if Oregon is ; to
retain all its state services and
proceed with- a buildmg- pro
gram. Gov. Patterson predicted
a deficit of some se5.uuu.uuu, in
cluding his regular budget plus
more millions for the building
Droeram. . - ':, ,, ,-;
. A six-mill state property tax
would bring Tin ah estimated
$30,000,000 in the ;next two
years. Geary said last night that
more than. 60 per cent oi tne
tironertv' taxes now collected in
Oregon's 36 counties are : spent
for school. He said: Vlf the state
gets into the property tax field,
I'm. afraid it might' cavse the
neoDle to goon s tax-strike, and
this would be a grave thing in
deed for our school." '.
