December 19, 1948 Gapa( tcity or Senator Hotel To Tod Marion The Hotel Senator ws well on the way toward displacing the 77-year-old Marion as Salem's lareest hostelry today. W. W. Chadwick. heading the Chadwick hotel system, said Wednesday the top floor of the $100,000 addition to the Senator would be completed In time to provide eight more rooms for legislators at the January ses sion, and that the other two floors now under construction would add 16 more rooms shortly thereafter. The addition will bring the to tal rooms to 138, compared to 125 for the Marion. Another $100,000 improvement to the Senator, opened first in 1928. is contemplated within the next two years, Chadwick said, including a garage on the first floor, a dining room on the sec ond, and another 40 rooms above. The addition would utilize the space occupied currently on the ground floor by the Greyhound bus lines. The bus firm has been granted a year's extension on its lease, which was to have expired next April 30, to give tme for building a new Greyhound termi nal at Church street.

"Administration of the inheri tance and gift tax laws is tech nical and legalistic, requires knowledge of laws and practices of other states and the United States, as well as Oregon, and calls for highly trained person net,'' Scott declared. Scott said the staff members of the present department are well known to attorneys and trust of ficers and to the general public. "Some of these employes could not accompany the transfer,' Scott said, "and the state would lose the benefit of their long ex perience and extraordinary train in".
