‘LOGS IT IN CALIFORNIA
ALTURAS, Avg. 24—(UP)—
Whether Thomas Hughes conducts
his logging operations in California
or Oregon would be rather difficult
to determine.
Hughes is enticed. in logging an
80-acre tract of timber situated just
along the boundary line on the Oregon side. Many of the trees, though
“ eut on Oregon territory, fall over
into California.
As a result many times finds him. self in the peculiar position of ‘cut; ting timber in Oregon but logging
it out of California.

ASK TAX REPEAL
SACRAMENTO, Aug. 24—(UP)
—The sales tax still holds the center of th estage as far as ‘the state
eapitol;' is concerned, and it is concerned.
Opposition to the 2% per cent
levy took definite form with the
filing of incorporation papers for an
organization to be known as_ the
“Sales Tax Repeal Association, Inc.”
Headquarters are in San Francisco.
Meantime the state board of equalization still is,struggling with thé
problem of preventing tax profiteering partticularly on small sales. Announcement was made that the board
would have field agents in every
county by September 1 to see that
merchants were not charging more
than the 2% per cent rate. All retailers also were ordered to obtain
their $1 licenses by September 1.
_ Good news for some 35,000 school
children in Southern California, or
:bad news for educators and parents
depending on the viewpoint. Anyway, state officials are concerned
over the fact an enforced vacation
may be necessary this Fall because
they haven’t found a way to get
around the requirement school builders must be ‘“‘quake proof’? under
terms of a bill passed by the legislature. Temporary structures available until new schools can be built
to replace those destroyed by the
‘quake. do not meet this requirement:
In many ways 1933 may not have
been, so far, the best year on record,
but you don’t hear the state division
of forestry kicking. Forest fire records for the first six months of the
year show only 40,882 acres of grass
and timber. burned in state-protected
areas, with damage estimatéd “at
$53,808. Forest fire damage for
tother ~ half-years: 1932, $72,344;
1931, $601,333.
Now that legislation has failed, it
is the duty of education to give proPer consideration to the liquor problem, in the opinion of iVerling Kersey, state superintendent of public
instruction. Special phamplets have
been issued for the use of California
teachers showing the effect of alcohol on health. School courses are
. being revised to stress the im per! tance of and respect for law enforcement. The schools, however, will
wage no militant campaign against
liquor, Kersey said.

SCHOOLS AS KTO
SET ASIDE TAX
LIMITATIONS
SACRAMENTO, Aug. .24—(UP)
—More than 700 California school
districts ‘are seeking authority to
spend $5,593,991 in excess of the
limitation place on such expenditures by the Riley-Stewart tax plan
according to the state department of
education.
Because of provisions in ‘the, new
tax amendment limiting expenditure
increases to 5 per cent annually, permission of the state board of equalization is necessary before tthe school
budgets can be expanded.
According to Vierling Kersey, the
state superintendent of public instruction, many school districts ‘are
badly in need of the additional funds
asked.
MANY FAIL TO PAY TAX
“The—tax moraterium—early—this
year resulted in the. failure of many
property owners to pay taxes with
the result that school districts in
many instances did not receive the
full amounts due them,’ Kersey stated.
“As a result some districts still
are. faced with the problem. of: paying a number of last year’s bills.
The necessity of painting and maintaining school property has contributed to the need of more money,
and the larger city schools are faced with the necessity of providing
for increased school attendance.”Of the total number of applications before the board, 341 probably
will be granted automatically inag#
much as the proposed 1933-34 exPenditures will not exceed the exDenses of the basic year 1931-32,
even though they are more than 5
Per cent over 1932-33.
The board,
discretion
however, must use its
on 364 applications that
will amount to a total proposed _increase of $1,570,556. The board recently completed a series of hearings on the requests but final action
will not be taken for several days,
it was annouced.
Applications for increases Were received from 638 elementary districts
63 high school districts and 4 junior college districts.

INHERITANCE TAX
INCOME DROPS
Aug. 24—(UP)
—Yidid of the inheritance tax which
has dwindled during depression
is bound to increase. in the
immediate future ,according to
Judge W. H.-H. Gentry, chief attorney of the inheritance tax division.
Legislation, coupled with the. apparent favorable turn in the tide of
business, will serve to bring in additional revenue.
The ‘‘death. tax’’ yield for the fiscal year of 1931-32 was $7,288,522.21,
Nevada county’s contribution .to
this total was $920.26.
WIDOW'S EXEMPTIONS CUT
During the mid-summer session,
money-seeking legislators passed a
law reducing widow’s exemptions,
from $50,000 to $25,000. Legislators thought this would increase the
years,
yield $750,000 annually, but Judge _
Gentry is inclined to believe this estimate is a bit optimistic .
This law doesn’t go into effect
until 90 days after passage, wich
will be late in October.
California’s inheritance tax—in
effect since 1905—-has been liberal
by comparison. with other. state.
Even with the tightening up on this
exemption, it is ‘still far less than
many other states.
RECEDING VALUES
The depression took a heavy toll
on inheritance tax revenue. Receding values of all types of property
were naturally reflected in the size
of estates ,Judge Gentry pointed out.
Even though the state and nation
bounds upward rapidly, effect of the
depression will still be felt—insofar as the inheritance tax is concerned—for some time to come. For
the tax is levied on the estate’s vaiue as of the time of death. Thus a
man might die today, but by the
time his eState was straightened out
to the point where a tax could be
levied, it would be six months or a
year later.
tate’s value might well have increased. But the state could lévy its tax
only on its value as of August,
1933,
