DOUBLING THE TAXES.

IF THE people vote favoraby at the May election upon
all the referendum submitted by the legis
lature state taxes, already high viii be doubled next
iyear.
The state tax levy made last December totalled
4391 ,2O8 With the approval of the bills pending the
next levy will be for S10OO0000.
large percentage of the increased taxation will be
permanent as the milage bills submitted provide for
annual levies In addition the proposed increase in the
bonding limit from two percent to four percent for build
ing highways opens the door for another 20 millions of
road expenditures by bonds
The miage bill provides for an annual increase of
$679 55 for tn Oregon Agricultural College, $500 366
for the University of Oregon and for the Mon
mouth Normal AS the levy already has been made for
this year, it is provided that these amounts totaing
$7947 shall be appropriated directly from the funds
this year. and no funds available, the levy must
be doubled next year to provide the money.
There is also miage bill calling for a levy of two
mills for the support of the common schools of the state
which will produce nearly two million dollars Another
measure calls for levy of two tenths of mill for edu
cationa aid to returned service men, producing nearly
100000. These measures like the higher educational
BILL also retroactive and mean double taxation next
year.
Another measure calls for millage tax for an in
Sttution for the blind which would however, not be eff
fectye until next year. when it must be added to the
regular expenses OF the state which this year totaed
$4 ,391, ,208.
Last Decembers levy was 1923 mills Last June IL
mills voted by the people for purposes and the
special session proposals add 357 mills more making the
state tax of 8 mills.
In making the mlage bills retroactive and thereby
throwing the burden of two years taxation nte next
year, the sponsors for the measures over-reached them
selves and have gone long way to insure their defeat
despite their individual merits Faced by double taxa
tion there will be popular tendency to vote mo- upon
the entire program

HOOVER ON PARTIES.

THAVE not sought, and am not seeking the presidency

is authorized to speak for me politically" states
Herbert Hoover
That is one Of the reasons that Mr. Hoover is desr-
able as candidate. He is not chasing the job
Mr. Hoover declines to commit himself to either par
ty until he knows what the party stands for He refuses
to commit himself blindfodedas politicians do who
place party above principle.
On one subject, however Mr. Hoover is definite, and
that is the League of Nations IF the treaty goes over
to the presidential election with any reservations
say to clarity the world mind that there can be no in
the safeguards provided by constitu-
ton and our natonold tradtons) then must vote for
the party that stands for the League" he states
Mr.. Hoover also makes it clear that he is opposed
to the reactiOnary program and proposed legislation
against sedtion which nuifies bill of rights He declares
that he could not vote for party if it dominated by
groups seeking to set aside constitutional guarantees
for free speech Or free representation who hope ito
establish control of the government for profit and priv
ege and that he is equally opposed to any form Of So
calism whether it be naturalization Of industry or
other destruction of individual initiative"
Mr.. Hoover, who left the Republican party to fol-
low Roosevelt into the Progressive is evidently convnc
ed Roosevelt afterward became convinced that there
should not be more than two great political parties.
Otherwise, he fears that combination of groups could
as in Europe, create danger of minority rule" Nor
should any one group Of men dictate the policies
of great parties.
Mr.. Hoover hopes for realignment of the old par
ties under issues-each taking positive stand on
the many problems confronting the nation and selecting
men whose character and association will guarantee
their pledges"
In other words, Mr. Hoover stands for the best Am
erican traditions-for the democracy that has made
America great nation and the extension Of those ideals
to the world

HOLDS MILITARY
 COURTHAS RIGHT
 TO TRY BERGDOLL

NEW YORK, March 5.- Federal Judge Hand tonight refused to order out of military Jurisdiction Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, wealthy Philadel- phian, charged with desertion from the army in evading the draft law. and his court martial will be resumed tomorrow on Governors Island.
 In dismissing Bergdolrs motion. made in connection with a writ of habeas corpus, Judge Hand said that it seemed .as destitute of merit as any I have ever encountered"
 Harry Weinberger, counsel for Bergdoll, immediately announced he would cary the case to the United States supreme court and demand his client the right of civil trial by jury.
 Judge Hand in his decision declared that the machinery of the draft law as it had been applied to Bergdoll ap- peared valid and that nothing had been presented to impeach the draft regulation.
 After Federal District Attorney Caffey had asked that Bergdolls motion be dismissed for lack of legal basis, Weinberger urged that Berg doll be given into the physical GUS tody of a United States marshall inn mediately, and that he be released on bail. Judge Hand dismissed the writ within a minute of the closing of arguments
