Before re enacting the old tax
law, the Oregon Legislature should
amend the section providing for an
interest charge of IL per cent per
annum on unpaid taxes. No
reasonable objection can be urged
against an interest charge on de-
linquent taxes, but it is unjust to
exact interest at the rate Of 10 per
cent per annum, when the legal
rate Of interest in the state is only
6 per cent per annum, The estate
of Oregon" is the "People Of Ore
gon," and it is manifestly unfair
for the Legislature to say that the
county governments shall exact
higher rate of interest than in
dividuals are allowed to charge.
Make the rate 6 per cent, and there
will be no complaint.
