Dogs Get New
Lease on Life;
Bill
Feathers flew and most dogs
had their day in the senate Fri
day, but the! biennial chickens-equal-livestock
bill was sent back
to committee Jby a vote of 14-13.
House bill 61, which would
classify chickens as livestock, so
that their owners might claim re
imbursement 'when the fouls are
molested by dogs, would do more
than repay losses to persons who
raise or attempt to raise chickensJ
both proponents and opponents
of the bill maintained. ' '
pToppnentsJ led by Sen. Paul
Patterson of Washington" county
and Sen. Angus Gibson of Lane
and linn counties,- pointed out
that the re-classification would
make chickens subject to the herd
law and that: their owners would
be liable if they wandered on to
highways.
A ddg life would be dull and
at the same time . insecure .under
the measure, since the law which
would be amended to include
chickens permits the killing of
any dog seen chasing livestock
and makes the owner liable for a
considerable fine if he keeps a
dog he knows has killed livestock.
It would "increase a million
times" jthe objections which might
be raised to the law as it now
stands,! Sen. William Walsh, Coos
county,j declared.
The bill went back to the agn
culture committee with the sug
gestion; that some clause might be
attached to make the punishment
for killing chickens something less
than the death penalty and that
dogs be permitted to chase chick
ens, particularly those wandering
around on other people's property
or the; public highways.
Limitation on Federal
Income Tax Sought
A joint resolution (HJR 5), by
Rep. John Hall, was introduced

New Budget Law for Local j
Tax-Levying Units Proposed
j In House Bill Entered Friday
J An entirely new law for the budgets of all local tax-levying bod
ies in the state was proposed in a measure (HB 335) dropped in the
