NEW TAX LAW IN OREGON IS
 HELD INVALID
Million and Half Dollars Collected Must Be Re-
 turned to Payers

SALEM, Oregon, Oct. 27.-Sud- denly and unexpectedly, Oregon State finances have been thrown into confusion by an opinion of the State Supreme Court that the new state intangibles tax law is uncon- stitutional and that $1 ,500000 col lected must be returned to the tax payers
 The Supreme Court held the law violated the Fourteenth Amendment guaranteeing equal protection under the laws because it taxes individu- als and not corporations.
 The opinion said an individual is unlike a corporation and cannot be taxed for the mere privilege of ex- isting. A corporation is an arti- ficial entity and owes existence to the State. Individuals have the rights of living and owning prop erty. These are their natural rights and an excise tax cannot be imposed upon them"
 The law imposed tax of per cent interest on money, dividends, stocks, bonds and mortgages when they produce an income exceeding $200 annually.
