ing Peck avenue with asphal

includes the legal percentage
for engineering. The petition
asking for the improvement
contains the names of 89 per
cent of the property owners,
who own 83 per cent of the
frontage involved. The cost
would be $3.18 per owner foot
of frontage:' Since the court
has adopted a policy of per
mitting a freshly graded and

a considerable period of time,
it Is possible the surfacing
may not be done this year, or

Further, these members con
tended that the revenue the
. state would derive would be
comparatively small, that the
exemption was placed in the
original law because owners of
such buildings were not grant
ed personal property exemp
tions, and is the means of
equalizing the tax paid by this
group with taxes paid by other
corporations.
Building Owners Side
Previous to voting on the
bill in an executive session the
committee heard Ralph Bailey
former tax commission attor
ney, now in private '.practice
and representing 13 large build'
ing owners in Portland.
Bailey told the committee
that for ten years these build
ing owners paid out more in
property taxes than was de
rived in net income.
He suggested that the entire
question of tax exemptions and
the relationship of removal of
the exemption to taxes paid by
financial institutions and indus
tries be studied by a legislative
interim committee. Unless this
was done. Bailey held, that the
building owners woulci suffer
an injustice by being assessed

in addition be required to
ipay the highest excise tax rate
1 iPercenY if tne exernption
were abolished.
John Hay, a tax consultant,
who served as adviser to the
tax interim committee appoint
ed by the 1951 legislature, also
opposed the exemption remov
al. He held that the exemp
tions were equitable and held
that House Bill 89, providing
for removal of the. exemptions,
was unsound legislation.
Members of the committee
signing the majority report to
kill the bill included Chairman
Lee Ohmart of Salem; Reps.
Dave Baum of La Grande, vice
chairman; Pat Dooley of Port
land; Russell Hudson, of The
Dalles; Donald Husband, Eu
gene; Ivan C. Laird, Sitkum
and Robert Root of Medford.

Oglevie was sent to the

He stated further, that some

of constructing a new section
of the state hospital north of

Branson said the population
of the boys school was con
stantly Increasing and more
and more of the. larger boys
who made the greatest
amount' of trouble, were be

"During the latter part of
1951 and early in 1952 there
were many escapes from the
school," Branson said, result
ing in a large number ot car
thefts In Woodburn."
It was following this aeries
of escapes that a committee
composed of members of civic

Woodburn, organized to co
operate with officials of the

Governor Patterson said
that the bill should be a
"must" providing the legisla
