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.
