General Fund
Deficit Hidden,
Eymann Charges
Salem-OIPD-State Rep. Rich
ard Eymann (D-Mohawk), to
day charged Gov. Mark Hat
field "juggled" figures to pro
duce "a phony budget" to
hide a $13.2 million general
fund deficit this biennium.
"For the first time in his
tory a governor has asked the
legislature to deliberately
run the state into the red
and violate the state constitu
tion," Eymann declared.
Eymann is chairman of
the House taxation commit
tee and majority floor leader
of the House.
Governor liatficld is in
Palm Springs to address the
California Republican Assem
bly, and could not be reached
for comment.
First Stone Thrown
Hatfield's press secretary,
Travis Cross, said "Eymann
has thrown the first stone in
a two-page press release with
out making a single construc
tive suggestion for meeting
the Increased educational and
social needs of our people.
"He has our proposals. If
he doesn't like them, let him
come up with prescriptions of
his own. A governor pro
poses, the legislature dis
poses, But It cannot be said
that the responsibility to
point the way was ducked. It
now remains for the House
and the Senate to get togeth
er on how they wish to meet
their obligations," Cross said.
"The legislature is not
going to appreciate Hatfield's
fallacious presentation," Ey
mann said.
"Never in Oregon history
has a governor sought to
cover up deficits by such
high handed manipulation of
revenue and expenditure fig
ures, nor has any other gov
ernor had the gall to ask that
the state deliberately go into
the red," he stated.
"The fiscal irresponsibility
of these requests, and of Hat
field's overspending of reve
nues in the past 18 months is
nothing short of prodigal.
Padding Charged
"A careful search of the
new deficit budget message
reveals that in order to bal
ance the income and spending
In the present biennium, Hat
.field has had to:
' "1. Ask for the return of
a $5.5 million appropriation
to the veterans affairs depart
ment made to get that depart
ment's loan fund started.
"2. Pad the tax commis
sion's estimate of income tax
receipts by $4 million.
"3. Pad State Treasurer
Howard Bolton's Inheritance
tax estimates by $2 million.
"4. Increase prices of liquor
by $500,000 in the last four
months of the biennium.
"5. Try to cut back state
programs by $1.7 million In
the last seven months of the
biennium.
"This totals $13.7 million,
less $500,000 which Hatfield
estimates will be in the bank
at the end of the biennium if
the savings arc achieved and
if his padding of revenue es
timates does not lead to disaster."
Oregon-Washington Income Tax Battle
Of Bridge Employees Explodes Again
Salem -IUPD- The long sim
mering battle between Ore
gon and Washington over
withholding of In ome taxes
from Portland-Vancouver toll
bridge employees exploded to
life again today.
Oregon Tax Commission
Chairman Fred Hoefke re
vealed "we're waiting until
the end of the ye ."
Legal Right Claimed
He said Atty. Gen. Robert
V. Thornton and Washington
Atty. Gen. John J. O'Connell
are still discussing the prob
lem and hope to reach agree
ment soon.
Oregon claims the legal
right to withhold income taxes
from the pay of employees of
the interstate toll bridge.
About 38 workmen at the
bridge toll plaza are involved
in the controversy which is
now more than two years old.
They are Washington state
employees, and live in Wash
ington. The toll plaza, however, is
located in Oregon. Oregon
claims they are Oregon work-

withholding tax.
Hoefke said today that Ore
gon has not yet collected any
Income tax from any of the
bridge employees.
"We're getting close to the
point where we will have to
do something," Hoefke said.
"We are not going to let
the statute of limitations run."
"There is no question of our
authority to collect the tax,"
Hoefke insisted.
He said the battle was over
Oregon'r right to withhold the
taxes from employees of
Washington state.
D. D. Hedges, executive sec
retary of the Toll Bridge Au
thority, claimed earlier this
year "we have always felt it
was Inappropriate to collect
the tax."
The issue has remained dor
mant since Washington offi
cials decided to defy the Ore
gon Tax commission and re
fused to withhold the Oregon
income tax.
It was at that time that
O'Connell requested a meet
ing with Thornton in an ef
fort to find a solution.
Hoefke insists "there is no
question" about Oregon's le
gal authority to collect the
tax.
He said he hoped Thornton
and O'Connell would reach a
satisfactory agreement before
the end of the year.
