Oregon May
Lose Federal
Game Funds
There ! a possibility that Ore
gon may lose $260,000 a year in
federal fame funds provided it
does not change its game law en
forcement system and the state
Solicy of placing part of the game
cense receipts into the state's
general fund.
Both questions were being in
vestigated . by Robert M. Ruther
ford, Washington, D. C, in charge
of giving this aid to the states,
who arrived in Salem Thursday.
Rutherford promised his decision
in time for the current legislature
to make any changes required.
The Pittman-Robinson act pro
Tides federal aid to the states.
Rutherford averred. But it further
provides that this aid shall be
denied if there is any use of state
game funds for any purpose other
than for game.
Oregon sportsmen have com
plained that game funds are being
diverted to the state police and
into the general fund by the tith
ing laW. ;
Rutherford has already held that
the federal funds would not be
stopped by a legislative bill to give
S per cent ol the license receipts
to agents which sell the licenses.
Oregon is the only state where
state police enforce the game laws,
Rutherford said. In other states,
the game commissions enforce
these laws.
Animals which have been do
mesticated since the dawn of
history include the dog, ox, sheep,
goat, horse, camel, cat, goose and
elephant. No animal of economic
imporatance has been brought in
to domestication within the past
2,000 years.

C of G Directors Oppose CVA, j
Call for Planners Report Soon
Salem Chamber of Commerce directors Thursday opposed a CVA,
backed up a United Air Lines request for local airport improvement
and called for a definite report from the long range planning com
mission on the Baldock highway plan.
Chamber directors voted to press for a long range planning rec
ommendation within two weeks. The planning commission, a cham
ber organization which tooU the
7
lead in seeking a state traffic stu
dy of Salem two years ago, has re
ceived bi not yet acted on a di
vided committee; report on the
Baldock plan. .
The chamber board discussed
the possibility of polling chamber
membership for an expression on
the highway improvement plan as
recommended by State Highway
Engineer R. H. Baldock, but sev
eral directors indicated they felt
the board should formulate and
state Ahe chamber's stand on the
controversial highway report.
Planners Divided
A principal contention which
split the planning commission spe
cial commmittee is over the loca
tion of a new Willamette river
bridge here. The Baldock plan
calls for a Marion street bridge
handling one-way traffic with re
modeled Center street bridge han
dling traffic the 'other way. Two
of thefive-man committee favor
ed in&ead a four-lane two-way
traffic "bridge at Division street, as
originally recommended by the
long range group.
City Manager J. L. Franzen told
the chamber board .'it was unlikely
that the city council will act on
the Baldock plan this month, but
that an early action in response to
the Baldock proposal is advisable
because the highway commission
will be allocating funds for vari
ous projects within a month.
To Send Telegrams
In another board action, it was
voted to wire Oregon's congres
sional delegation and Gov. Doug
las McKay who is attending a Co
lumbia basin inter-agency com
mission meeting in Idaho on the
subject of CVA. ;
The board approved as its sen
timent in opposition to CVA the
following message: "We are for
development of multi-p u r p o s e
dams by the federal government
but strongly oppose an all-inclusive
CVA. We recognize the prob
ability of some type of legislation
but urge both states' and com
munities' right to home rule and
fair allocation of power.
Back Landing System
Chamber directors went on rec
ord in favor of a new H-type
landing system for Salem airport,
as a CAA installation to improve
facilities for bringing in commer
cial airliners during bad weather.
The project costing about $1,000
wolud be financed by the federal
government because civil aeronau
tics administration has responsi
bility for landing systems at air
ports. The local system, installed by
UAL as a temporary measure pen
ding development of the local air
port, has been recently criticized
by. the airlines pilots association
as out-of-date and erratic. The H-
type which UAL is recommending
would become part of an eventual
ILS landing system here as alrea
dy proposed by CAA. The present
action by the chamber, with back
ing of the city, is taken in hopes
of speeding the CAA improvement
to completion before next falL

Protest Over 1
Coast Bus Line
Withdrawn
Oregon Motor Stages withdrew
its protest Thursday afternoon in
the public hearing regarding the

between Salem and Dallas, though
passengers bound for points be
yong those cities could be picked
up and those from points outside
