Sales Tax Opposed
For Education Use
O Eugene (U.R) Dr. John
R. Richards, chancellor of the
state system of higher educa
tion, last night spoke out in op
posion to proposed use of a
state sales tax for educational
p"urposes.
Richards told an educational
tax clirHcethat in some educa
tional quarters recommendations
have been made that the 1957
Legislature earmark a sales tax
foreducational purposes only.
In a statement of opposition,
he said:
"Earmarking of such a sub
stantial amount of money for
only a part of the state's pro
gram would tie the hnds of the
legislators when they sit down
to apportion the income. To
bring pressure upon them to pin
point these funds does a disser
vice to the men and women of
the legislative body who are
Studying the state's taxation
problems and who are looking
at the needs of the state as a
whole," he said.
