WARREN GUI Mieres.tlut ill people are en titled to Fair Play in their relationship with government and each other. He believes that prosperity can be brought to Oregon without increasing taxes. His program for FAIR PLAY AND PROSPERITY IN OREGON re teived statewide acclaim when he announced his candidacy for Governor and made this pirdjt to tie Oregon people: Of t will support q sales tax for. education, sjll fto revenue to be used to reduce local prop erty taxes. Oregon now b&s ose of the highest income tax rates iH the nation. Present property taxes are nearly confiscatory and are an inflexible burden which must be Met rejardless of ability to pay. A fair and equitable sales tax (which excludes groceries, medicines, and farm supplies) will spread out the taa tardea ad bring additional millions from tourists. Taxpayers can control the amount they pay. Tie bij spenders pay the most. 0e I will propose a law prohibiting employ ment discrimination because of age. It is becoming increasingly difficult for persons 35 years of age or over to find employment. It is wrong to discriminate against healthy, alert, com petent, experienced citizens simply because of age, and thus force them upon the public welfare and relief rolls. D I wilt encourage fair employment prac tices, and the development of supervised and safeguarded retirement programs for working people. G, I will advocate a homestead exemption from property taxes for our Senior Citizens' over 65. Oregonians over 65 years of age, whose incomes are less than $150.00 per month are entitled to a homestead exemption from property taxes. They built our country, let's not forget them. S I will recommend that the 35 millieMt dollar surplus which the tax camcm'ssim esti mates will be on hand in 1959 be ch'sfnbwies! on a fair and equitable basis te the Kneels, state departments, and institutions. We do not have to increase taxes at this time to finance new schools and institutions. The tax com mission estimates we will have a 35 million dollar surplus, which can be used to meet this aesL ! vin encourage legislation wfcfcii in sures local control of local affairs. We must stop the trend toward Big Bureaucratic Government. "The bigger Government jets, the smaller you and I become." 10. 7, I wifi vete any increase in income taxes. St i wiS 9fe a state Tax on property. PIpOCT a WINNER I will propose a law permitting an in come tax deduction of payments for auto lia bility insurance. Businesses are now permitted to deduct the cost of automobile liability insurance from their income tax. Fair play demands that all of us Oregonians be allowed the same tax relief. This will encourage ' voluntary insurance coverage as distinguished from a compulsory state law. 1 I will work for the immediate deveUp- ment of the Northwest's power resources. My 10 point program wiU bring fair play and prosperity to Oregon and wiH provide . new and permanent jobs, by attracting business and industry to our state.
