A1EDF0RD MAIL TRIBUNE, MKDFORD. OREGON SUNDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1963 A 1 History of School Finance Subject of Bulletin Article EUGENE - A history o( school fanance in Oregon has been prepared by Thomas Rig by, executive secretary of the Oregon School Boards Associa tion. The history appears in the current issue of the Oregon Study Council Bulletin, publish ed monthly by the University of Oregon School of Education. There have been three dis tinct periods in the financing of public elementary and secon dary education in Oregon, Rig by points out. During the first of these, from territorial days to 1!)20, almost all school funds were provided from local property taxes. At first, the major responsibility for providing funds fell upon the counties rather than the local school districts, and it was not until 1908 that local district taxes became the largest source of school revenue. Assumes Responsibility During the second period, from 1920 to 1942. the state as sumed responsibility for fur nishing a portion of school reve nue by the imposition of a state property tax for elementary school purposes. During the third period, 1942 to the present, the state has provided for school support from state - collected, non-property taxes. Federal support for local edu cation came on the scene fairly early, accoring to Rigby. In BOB, the federal government made provision for payment of a portion of the receipts from national forest lands to the I states for the benefit of public roads and schools in the coun ties in which the forest lands were located. In addition, in 1917, the Con gress enacted the National Vo cational Education Act to pro mote education in agriculture, trades, industries, and home economics on the basis of j maicning i u n ns irom me states.
