Corner of 8th and Fir Phono SP 2-7166 Portland - Motel operators meeting here recently reaf firmed their opposition to a proposal by the legislative in terim tax committee which would eliminate inventory taxes and substitute a net bus iness tax to collect the reve nue. Clarence Summers, Eugene, association president, main tained that since motels have no inventories but pay heavy personal and real property taxes a net business tax would be an added burden with no compensating relief. "The situation is different with a retailer," he continued. "He can afford a net business tax if he has relief through in ventory tax elimination. We wpuld pay all our present taxes and the business tax1 also." Edward F. Bolt, of tha Homestead on the Rogue, Gold Hill; Max P. Weston, Brownell motel, and H. A. Mauck, Travelodge motel, both Medford, all represented Jackson county at the two-day planning session.
