Roseburg Bowling Alley FLOYD BAUQHMAN Owner-Manager Payroll Tax Rise Seen Under Work Rating Proposal SALEM, Jan. 28. (AP) Pay- roll taxes of the state's seasonal Industries, principally lumber and building, would be greatly Increas ed by the experience rating sys tem, the unemployment compene satlon commission reported to the legislature yesterday. The commission said a nine- month study of the system, sched uled to ' go Into effect July, 1, showed that employers who have steady payrolls would enjoy low er payroll taxes, those without steady payrolls higher taxes. Both the C.I.O. and A.F.L. are opposed to the system, charging that the basic industries would be penalized because of their sea sonal nature. The highest taxes would be paid by most logging and lumber op erators and building contractors, while retailers, publishers, whole salers and other small business operators would qualify In the lower brackets. According to the report, the most benefit would) be received by Willamette valley concerns north of Albany, leaving southern, east ern, and coastal counties, which are dependent on logging and lumbering, to pay higher taxes. Truck Bill Argued. The senate highways commit tee was urged by trucking inter- tests last night to approve a bill increasing truck weight and length limits.

Passage of the bill also was urged by representatives of the state federation of labor, state grange and eastern Oregon wheat league. Service Station Rising For Associated Oil Co. .
