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.
Truckers said such Increases
were necessary to enable them to
compete with Idaho and Washing
ton truckers.
The bill, approved by the state
highway commission, was oppos
ed by representativs of the rail
roads, counties and motorist as
sociations on grounds It would fa
vor truckers at expense of the
railroads, be hazardous for mo
torists, and harm Oregon's tour
ist business.
Henry Cabell, state highway
commission chairman, said the
state's roads would not be hurt
by the increased limits.
Passage of the bill also was
urged by representatives of the
state federation of labor, state
grange and eastern Oregon wheat
league.
