Minority Report
Filed on Interim
Tax Findings
Salem - OJPD - State Rep.
Vernon Cook (D-Troutdale)
said today he had filed a mi
nority report to findings of
the Legislative Interim Tax
committee and that he op
posed a proposal to tax cig
arettes. "
Cook said he agreed with
the majority , of many of the
findings but could not join
in recommendation for revi
sion of the income tax law.
He said he believed any
surplus available at the 1961
session should be used to re
duce property taxes and made
available for use in education
and public welfare; that in
the absence of the require
ment that income tax reve
nues be increased above their
present level he did not be
lieve it necessary to impose
a gross income tax "which in
its effects disregards the abil
ity to pay"; that he opposed
substitution of a cigarette tax
for a part of the tax now
raised through the personal
income tax system, and that
the proposed bill while cut
ting total revenue "actually
increases the tax burden on
a very high percentage of
those now paying income tax.
and imposes the greatest ini
tial burden on low income
earners with moderate to
large families."
He said he did not' consider
a cigarette tax to be a fair
tax and called it "nothing
more than a selective sales
tax." ' '

The Journal said both
Smith and Mrs. Maurine Neu

Suspect in
Brewer's Death
Vancouver. R f -fltPIU. .Trv.
scph Corbett Jr., 32, one of
America s most wanted crimi
nals, was scheduled to appear
in court todav on a rharivA nf
possessing an unlicensed fire
arm.
His court appearance was
expected to initiate a series of
legal steps by which Canadian
aumoriues would declare Cor
bett an undesirable alien and
clear the way for the fugi
tive's return to the United
States.
Corbett. from Seattle u-ne
arrested at gunpoint Saturday
in nis room in the Maxine
Apartment hotel in the seaside
quarter 01 downtown Vancou
ver by a joint task force of lo
cal police and FBI a cento
He offered no resistance al-
tnougn a Lugar pistol lay near
his bed.
"Okay, I give up," he said
weaklv .
The arrest followed a five-
year hunt which started at
one side of North America,
leaD-froeeed tn the nther iM.
and finally ended on the West
oast again.
Corbett escaped from jail in
wnino. cant., in 1B55. while
serving a five-year to life sen
tence for the gunshot slaying
of an Air Force sergeant.
No clue to his whereabouts
turned un until Fehmnr-j
when wealthy brewer Adolph
Coors III. failed tn shnw un
at his office in Golden, Colo.
t-oors- aDanaoned car was
found the same day on a lone
ly road amid evidence of a
bloody struggle. .
A ransom note demanding
$500,000 was received next
day by the Coors family but
ransom negotiations were not
carried through by the kid
naDer. In mid-S e n t e m h e r
Coors' body was found in rug
ged terrain southwest of Den
ver. He had been shot twice at
close range.
On Sept. 26, Colorado au
thorities charged Corbett with
the murder.
An all-out investigation hv
the FBI determined that Cor
bett had fled his residence in
Denver Feb. 10, the day after
Coors' disappearance.
A. week later n vallnur ee.
dan registered to Walter Os
borne, Corbett's alias, was
found burning on a dump in
Atlantic Ulty, N. J.
Corbett hired a red. Pon
tiac from, a U-drive firm in
Winnipeg, Man., early in Oc-
toDer. wnen i'Bl agents arriv
ed in the eitv on Pnrhnft'a
trail they gave police a de
scription of the auto.
Corbett's fate was sealed
when Constable Jack Marshall
remembered seeing the car
parked near the Maxine
Apartment hotel here. Mar
shall went to the hotel and
showed the landlady a want
ed photograph of Corbett.
Mrs. Mary Bell said it was a
picture of a guest registered
under the name of Thomas C.
Wainwright.
