State Taxpayers Face Tough Year Salem '(U.R) The State Tax commission warned Oregon tax payers today they face the toughest state income tax pay ments in history this year. A surtax of 45 per cent was added to state income tax bills this year by an income tax amendment passed during the 1955 legislative session. Two per cent state withhold ing deductions are now being made in pay checks, instead of one per cent, to enable employed persons to make the high tax payments. The legislature also reduced the income tax exemptions on dependents $100 so that the average taxpayer will be pay ing between 50 and 60 per cent more state tax in 1956, accord ing to Commissioner Ray Smith. The state treasury expects to rake in between $45,000,000 and $50,000,000 from the adi tional taxes. That, with other taxes, should be enough to bal ance the state budget. ; Only bright spot in the tax payers' picture was that, in 1957, the taxpayer may be able to re cover some of the additional money by using the state tax as a deduction on his federal in come tax return.
