Linn County Side MILL CITY George ‘Sparky’ Dltter Tony Ziebert State School Support has REDUCED PROPERTY TAX Oregon state school support has brought outstanding benefits to Oregon’s schools and Oregon property taxpayers. State support has played a vital part in providing needed equipment and supplying necessary teachers for Oregon’s surging school population. It has saved MARION county property taxpayers $5,468,378 in the past 7 years To educate Marion county boys and girls for the past 7 years required local property taxes of $9,886,758. In addition, state school support from income tax sources supplied more than $5,468,378. In other words, for every $2.00 raised by local school district property taxes, another $1.00 has come from state sources. School population will double in IO years More state aid is needed to relieve rapidly increasing local district property taxes. Rd. Adv. Tlx cwidrss i »ill Com", Mr».
