OREGON VOTING
TODAY ON TAX
LAW CHANGES
Difference of Million Be-
tween Expenses and Rev.
enue Causes Election.

BIZ United Press
PORTLAND, Ore, June 28.-A
special election to solve a financial
tangle in which Oregon finds itself
today claimed the attention of Ore
gon voters.
A difference Of approximately
81 100000 between expenses of the
State government and available
revnue, on the basis of the present
taxation system, was responsible for
the off-season call to the polls. But
communities in all sections of the
State took advantage of the occasion
and as a result numerous local
measures also grace the ballot.
Major Interest centered in the
proposition to place a tax on all
incomes having their source in Ore
gon with a yiewE'of relieving, to
some degree, the burden on real
property.
Propose Tax Limit
Another important proposal and
having to do with complicated f.
nances is an amendment to the 6
per cent tax limitation. Briefly, this
means that Oregon cannot tax its
property any one year for more than
per cent in excess of the tax total
for the previous year.
A low taxation base, bound by this
limit, prevented the raising of suffi-
cient money for State government.
The amendment is a proposal to
raise the tax base so that, the State
may levy a tax in 1928 not in eX-
cess of 0,00O-which is con-
siderable more than the present
base can produce.
Thus, its supporters say. new tax
base would be created, with assr-
ance therefrom of plenty Of money
for State affairs, even though there
after confined to the 6 per cent
limit.
Assessment Law
Another tax affair which found
its way on today's ballot is. the So
called taxation assessment law,

Folks Made 1t Holiday

Special trains and trucks will leave
all of the principal cities of Eng
land and Wales tonight for the area
of totality in the middle of England.
Not only will the eclipse be observed
by large numbers of curious people,
but also by large group of as
tronomers, scientists and electrical
experts.
The Greenwich Observatory is
sending a special expedition, headed
by Sir Frank Dyson, the Astronomer
Royal, to Yorkshire.
oxford University Observatory has
accepted the invitation of the City
of Southport to set up apparatus
there.
Cambridge University Solar
Physics Observatory is sending an
expedition to Norway.
Americans to See It
London University is also sending
an expedition to the totaHty area in
England.
The United States will be repre-
scented by three expeditions whieh
are going to Scandinavia. There
will also be party of Dutch astron-
omers in Norway.
For several reasons the eclipse will
not be a good one for astronomers.
In the first place, it is remarked, the
tota1ity is far too short to permit
thorough observations, especially
since the greatest duration of the
totality of the eclipse over land is
IS seconds, while in the British Isles
it is only "a seconds. 1t is also noted
that the altitude of the sun while
over the British Isles will be only
about IL degrees, while its greatest
altitude will be IS degrees over the
Arctic Ocean where no observations
can be made.
To Study, Corona
AS Is the case during all total
eclipses, astronomers will try to
answer their own question Of, What
is the corona?"
The corona is known to have an
Intimate association with n-SpotS.
About the suns poles it takes the
form of short tufts or plumes of
some light.
Investigation has shown the
corona to consist of matter which is
partly self luminous, though much
of the light it sheds is reflected sun
light. In the spectroscope it reflects
a mysterious green ray, which can
not be identified with any matter
known on earth This unknown
element has been named "coronium."
Earlier total eclipses in England
fell in the years, 878, 1886, 1922, 1133
1140, 1155, 1880, 1924, 1888, 1898, 1862,
1715 and 1924.
In 1140, people became so alarmed
at the eclipse it was generally be-
lieved the world was coming to an
end.
