tract no new business. . .'

whether- individuals or corpora
tions;, would enjoy a five per

terms' of a bill that will be up
for second reading in the House
Monday.
The bill was introduced by a
bi-partisan group ot lawmakers

Portland Democrat. - .
' Pearson said the proposal
would apply to all firms which
have distributing outlets in the
' state : and to individuals who
have . been residents : two years

It .would be a boost, to bus!
aessmen who pay Oregon taxes
and contribute to-payrolls in the
state, he said. The present law
permits a preference to Oregon

. make it mandatory. .
