( i & si i in" a i4 J" I A countv wide check of mer chandise inventories by the state tax commission was concluded Thursday and Friday in Heppner. This is part of a statewide pro- gram. Merchants' books were examined to check up on inven tories as declared in tax returns to county assessors. The spot check meant that about one in ten Morrow county merchants had his inventory re cords examined, said Samuel B. Stewart, state tax commissioner in charge of assessment and tax- atnn. A. H. Howells, tax commission director of records, supervised the! "random sampling' ot stores throughout the state. i Stewart said that the tax body has authority to direct the county! assessor to make a check of all merchants if the spot check turns up conditions which warrant fur ther investigation. True cash value declarations were not checked from 1940 until 1952, explained Stewart. When a small sample of books through out the state was examined in 1952, accountants found returns ranging from 4 to 100 of full value. These findings prompted most counties to hire qualified men to check all business inventories.1 Before 1952, assessors used higher ratios on merchandise in-' ventories than on real property.' That is, tne assessed vaiue oi in ventories was a higher percent ace of their true cash value. At the time of the 1952 check,! the state tax commission recom mended that inventory ratios be reduced to equal those on real prorx-;y. Thirty-five counties have lowered their personal pro perty ratios in keeping with this suggestion. "Lowering these ratios definite ly benefited the merchants. It is now up to them to declare their inventories accurately," Stewart said. It will pay you to obtain a Land Bank loan.
