High Lakes
To Be Open
To Anglers
Willow lake and Lake o'
Woods are among trout fish
ing spots which will open to
Anglers this Saturday. Wil
low lake is the Medford city
water department reservoir
near Butte Falls. It is opening
to anglers for the first time
and a store and boat dock will
be operating. Road to Lake o'
Woods from Ashland by way
of Dead Indian is open. The
route from Fish lake is closed
but the road from Klamath
Falls is open, the resort man
agement announced.
Portland U.R) Thousands of
Oregonians were expected to
head for high lakes as they open
to fishing Saturday but the
State Game Commission warned
that they check on road condi
tions to make certain which
lakes are accessible.
More than 1000 new fishing
holes will be available. The
opening includes such popular
spots as Crane Prairie reservoir
and Davis, North and " South
Twin, and Lava lakes.
May Be Ice Bound
Because of the late spring,
many high lakes still will be
icebound for several weeks to
come and many trails and roads
also will be blocked with snow.
East and Paulina lakes are
heavily coated with ice and the
camp grounds are covered with
Heed for Balance in Oregon's Tax Program
Expressed by Sen. Lovry in Report to Club
Need for a balance between
income and sales taxes to help
solve Oregon's taxation and fi
nancial problems was expressed
by State Sen. Phil Lowry in a
talk yesterday to Medford Ki
wanians at Rogue Valley Coun
try club.
Lowry, speaking at the service
club's luncheon meeting, out
lined the work and accomplish
ments of the 1955 session of the
state legislature.
Discusses Measures Taken
Discussing ta rmeasure? taken
and the failure of the sales tax
bill to pass the Senate, the sen
ator declared that steps should
be taken toward balance in the
Oregon tax system. The systems
in Oregon and Washington are
badly out of balance, he said.
Lowry mentioned to Kiwanians
that all of them should be aware
of the impact of taxes on busi
ness. He brought out that op
portunities can be taxed away
or limited.
Defeat of the sales tax pro
posal was the result of a combi
nation of factors, Lowry report
ed. He stated that the Senate
got the bill from the House of
Representatives late in the ses
sion, that it disagreed drastically
with the House measure, that
took the "sugar coating"out, and
that politics had entered in.
"We can't afford any longer
to make the sales tax a political
football," Lowry asserted. He
indicated that he favored the
house version of the measure.
Describes Income Change
In income tax measures passed,
Lowry reported, personal exemp
tions were reduced from S600'to
S500 and a 45 per cent surtax
was imposed. The legislation was
designed to raise $42,000,000.
The utility tax exemption was
taken out along with the "sky
scraper" uaclsew cO ihh
scraper" clause which provided
exemptions for corporations
drawing most of their income
from rentals.
A letter to the Oregon Liquor
Control Commission to increase
its prices and a cigarette tax
were other means taken to pro
state. Lowry said it appears posi
tive that the cigarette measure
will be referred to the people.
Cites Responsibility
The senator spoke of the leg
islature's responsibility to see
that the state's $600,000,000
snow.
Ice is breaking up in Big Lava
and anglers should be able to
fish the weekend. The road to
Big Lava is plowed to within
three-quarters of a mile. The
North Century drive is open as
far as" Bear Springs.
Fishermen were warned to
take warm clothing, sleeping
bags and tents and late snow
storms are possible. Chains and
shovels should be standard
equipment.
Grain and Seed Use
Seen in Hay Shortage
Hay shortages in Oregon and
neighboring states, coupled with
below average yield prospects
this year, may prompt harvest
ing of more grain and seed crops
as hay, believe Oregon State col
lege extension specialists.
A scant 150,000 tons of hay
on Oregon farms May 1, roughly
half as much as a year earlier
and only enough for two or three
weeks normal feeding, was re
corded by the USDA crop re:
porting service.
Water shortages in some areas
of the state have dropped yield
prospects for "tame" hay 8 per
cen below last year, and the out
look for "wild hay is even
darker although somewhat im
proved by April rains and snow.
Wild hay meadows normally
produce about one-fifth of Ore
gon's tonnage.
Pastures may prove good bets
for many Oregon farmers unable
to make secdings of other crops
planned earlier. OSC economists
advise. Recent build-ups in feed
grain and livestock, they say.
may leave Oregon short on hay
and pasture for some time.

but production will continue
high, according to Benjamin F.

thing that can stop the year
from being a good one."
The steel executive, still active

recent retirement as chairman,

ond highest total on record.

items as basic school support
and public welfare has contribu
ted to the 500 per cent increase
in- appropriations, Lowry said.
"People are demanding more and
more that the legislature solve
problems they formerly solved
themselves," the senator de
clared. People have demanded that
services be first class, according
to Lowry, but the price for the
individual citizen is high. He
cited Oregon, at $78.83 per per
son, as fourth highest in per
capita debt on the state level. He
pointed to a decline in normal
income from 1952 and said the
economy of the state is not so
stable as "we would like to have
it be."
Building Program
For this reason, Lowry stated,
the $14,900,000 building program
was set up by appropriation and
not on a bond basis.
The senator brought out too,
that the legislature does not have
a free hand on a tax program
becuse it cannot be sure its ac
tions will stand up before a
referendum.
Saying that the financial mat
ters drew attention away from
other issues. Lowry spoke of the
general criticism of the legisla
ture. But, he stressed that a
number of important bills were
passed. He listed legislation con
cerning the parole system, sex
deviates, meat inspection, work
men's compensation, Portland
State college, subdistricting in
Multnomah county, transfer of
the motor vehicle department
from the secretary of state to the
governor's office, water resoures,
comic books and salary readjust
ments.
Not 'Do Nothing'
A total of 774 bills out of 1,300
submitted were passed, the legis
lator reported. The legislature
was not a "do nothing" body,
he asserted.
Senator Lowry said that he
was not disillusioned by his leg
islative experience. He expressed
the belief that Oregon has a
good, clean government." Most
men in the legislature are ex
ceedingly competent, he said.
He concluded with the remark
that "we've got to ride" the
budget and finance problems a
lot harder than has been done
in the past.
