The measure pro vides a maximum of 20 mills on prop erty exclusive of levies necessary to ser vice existing debts, with a gradual re duction so that after 1940 the maxi mum levy would be 15 mills. It also provide» for assessment on a basis of 50 per cent of actual value. T h e present ratio is higher.. The bill Is undesstood to have been devised by real estate In terests in Portland who seem to have become convinced after getting it on the ballot that the measure is too dras tic. No organized campaign is being made In its behalf but because the measure seems aimed at tax reduction many who do not understand it will vote for It and there is some danger of it passing. Let it be understood that there is only one way ultimately to reduce tax ation—spend l e s s money. The 2 0 mill bill does not propose this; mere ly It slashes the amount that can be raised from the property tax. It will not affect the amount spent. I f It is passed the property tax revenues will be cut o ff sharply In 1936 and budgets of every school district, city and county will be thrown out of balance. This will pro duce a crisis.—Ex.
