Mortensen, a senior in busi
ness administration, said Ore
gon needs more tax money

said, is how to get it.

that it had an adverse effect

Pollution, Railroad
Measures Signed
Salem (UPD The pollution

crew measure were signed
into law Monday by Gov.
Mark Hatfield.
Both measures will become
effective 90 days after the
legislature adjourns.

sented a victory for the rail

HOW IT'S DONE Did you ever wonder how those pretty
girls maintain their poise perched atop those high floats
used in parades? Now we know. San Antonio, Texas, photo
grapher Gilbert Barrera lets the secret out by showing Diane
Fredrich with her hooped skirt raised revealing Jamaica
shorts underneath as workmen strap her to the float. Diane

Mississippi Urged To Miss Conclave
Gulfport, Miss. -IUPII- State
Democratic party Chairman
Bidwell Adam said Monday
he thinks Mississippi should
stay away from the 1964 na
tional convention "if condi
tions and circumstances are
as hot as they are now."
"If you don't intend to sup
port the nominee, the best
thing to do is not to go to
the convention." said Adam,
who broke with the national
party last fall when federal
troops were sent to the Uni-

Adam said a state delega
tion which casts ballots for
a nominee at a national con
vention is "morally bound"
to support that nominee in
an election.

Mortensen argued against

which would levy, as it is now
being considered in the state
legislature, a 4 cent tax on
each package of cigarettes.
He labelled the measure as
"discriminatory and unfair,"
pointing out that large seg
ments of the state's popula
tion would receive benefits
from the tax without making
any contribution to it. He also
opposed property taxes, which
he felt were "very unfair to
to some people."
Advocatas Salas Tux
The speaker advocated a
sales tax at a proposed 3 or
4 per cent rate, which he said
could be collected on an "easy,
pay-as-you-go basis." Morten
sen, in addition, favored a 1
cent a gallon gasoline tax to
help finance the state's road
building program.
Silberstein, a freshman in
biology from Daly City, Cal
if., said that "taxes should be
paid based on ability to pay."
not on a flat rate basis.
Oregon's tax system is in
need of "reorganization and
simplification," Silberstein
said, noting that estimated
revenue for the next bien
nium will fall about $17 mil
lion short of the $405 million
requested by Gov. Mark Hat
field. Proposes Elastic Percentage
The speaker proposed that
Oregon's income tax be based i
on an "elastic percentage" of
the federal income tax. He
too opposed the property tax. i
"The aged with their limited
incomes just ran't afford it." 1
he said.
The third speaker, Tom
Ness, a senior in snprh from
Eugene, favored keeping Ore
gon's tax structure "more or
less as it is now."
The total effect of the struc
ture now is "slightly progres
sive," he said.
"The average person pays
a slightly higher percentage
tax as his income rises," Ness
said, "and this is right and
should be maintained."
Studies Fail To Show
He said the present tax sys
tem "puts the burden where
the burden can be borne." He
said to his knowledge studies
have failed to show that the
graduated income tax system
has any measurable effect on
that if a person resented the
tax, all he had to do was quit
smoking, but he predicted
that few would stop, or even
lessen their consumption, if
the measure were enacted.
