The Oregon Legislature is safe In
providing a bond issue for construc-
tion of roads and highways through
out the state, but the many other
proposed bonding schemes will not
have as easy a time. These are
largely being promoted by Portland
bond dealers who figure on large
commissions from their sale and then
removing from the state when re-
action comes and pay day arrives.
There is the 800, 100000 bond plan
for development of the hydro-electric
power and the state operation OF
wooden mills, etc, Roosevelt coast
highway bonds, irrigation, land, and
other bonds for another $200,O00,-
000 Some even propose to buy land.

on what is known as "logged-of
lands and sell it on long time pay
ments Generally these lands are
owned by timber men who have
taken all the timber from the lands
and wish to escape paying future
taxes and find an easy way to dc
this is to sell it at fancy figure to

TAXATION SHOULD BE
LIGHTFNED.

The policy of heavy taxation on
business profits begins now to show
its repressive and unfortunate in
fence" declares National City Bank
Bulletin for February. There was
never a time when the spirit OF
courage and enterprise was more
needed. Secretary Wilson made a
strong plea at a New York meeting
few lays ago for business men to GO
ahead with resolution and public
spirit to set the wheels of industry
turning and provide employment n
the wage-earning population. A., "'ho
heard him realize the DANCE '"irich
might develop from widespread idle
ness and distress. But these are
times when serious risks att" i to
individual policies. An individual is
so small factor in the general
situation that he cannot eXpcct to
materially affect it, or to receive any
compensation for losses he may
suffer in battling with general ten
denotes.
1.-The odds against an investor are
very heavy under taxation proposed
in the new law. Should he buy goods
or build, or hire labor for any enter
prise. If developments are against
him and he loses, the loss is all his
own; if he is successful, the govern
ment may claim SO or 60 or 80 pei
cent of the profits. The critics OF
business will say that what is left is
enough 1t might be enough II
there were no losses, but there is nc
allowance for losses. 1t is not easy
to keep gains ahead of losses in the
business world without any taxation
who dares move outside of the mar
rowest and most cautious policies
with such odds as present taxation
puts against him?
1T is obvious that taxes must bt
heavy for the present but 1t is wei
to understand their effects and t;
utter a word of caution against theil
being made heavier than necessary
If by spreading taxation over long
er period the spirit of enterprise Cal
be revived and stimulated the coun
try will be more prosperous ant
moderate levies will yield more thar
| heavier ones"

TR|UMPHFOR
LLOYD GEORGE
While Opinions Are Divided Re-
garding Address, Victory is
Seen for Premier

BB Associated Press
LONDON, April 17.-While opin-
Ions are divided regarding the sub
stance of the address of Premier
Lloyd George before the House of
Commons yesterday there is a gen.
erad agreement by the London press
that 1t was a great parliamentary tri-
umph. With the exception of the la
borfte and Northcliffe newspapers
none of the morning journals con-
denim the premier's statement wholly
while several warmly applaud him.
These admit that Mr.. Lloyd George
revealed nothing of the peace terms
but they do not complain.
The Graphic says Mr.. Lloyd
Georges statement "justifies the as
sumption that President Wilson has
abandoned his opposition, or alleged
opposition. to the sterner views of
those powers which suffered most in
the war"
The Daily News admits there may
ave been serious reasons for with
holding Information a. to the terms of
peace. but in the absence of evidence
mere declarations that all pledges
will be kept are idle. 1t is a fact that
some of them have not been kept.
The Herald, the labor organ. says:
"A1 the premiers pledges cannot be
kept for they are as contradictory as
his speeches"
