Page 8, THE GAZETTE-TIMES, Heppner, OR., Thursday. May , 1975 Ullman asks for better forest grazing range Cong. Al Ullman today asked Congress to fund a $2.3 million experimental program to update forest range lands for better grazing use and conservation. The program would center in Oregon's Blue Mountains, primarily in Grant County According to Ullman, Forest Service range lands are coming under increased use, and the agency hopes to establish a pilot project for upgrading forage and water conservation. He recalled the Vale Grax ing Project undertaken some years ago by the Bureau of Reclamation to restore lands that had been over-grazed in Malheur County, and said similar success could be achieved on Forest Service range lands with proper management. Noting that the administra tion had budgeted no money to continue research into bovine emphysema through the Northwest Forest and Range Experiment Station in La Grande, Ullman asked for an additional $60,000. He also requested $1.2 million for the Forest resources evaluation carried on by the LaGrande laboratory. The Congressman also urg ed special appropriations of $774,000 to continue con struction of the new, modern fish hatchery on the Warm Automotive SHERRELL CHEVROLET. INC.

I LA TEX I House pam II m'"A dtsim ULW State Mi on rebates opposed by Packrood Sen. Bob Packwood (R-Or.) Thursday introduced a resolu tion reaffirming the intention of Congress that states should not tax individual income tax rebates paid under the Tax Reduction Act of 1975. Sen. Packwood, a member of the Senate Finance Com mittee which handled the bill, said the need for this resolu tion arose from a decision by Oregon's Attorney General that the tax rebate is subject to Oregon State taxes. ' "I think the action by Oregon is wrong, and I am concerned that other states may follow this example," Packwood said. "I believe the states are acting against the best Interest of the consumer and against the wishes of the Congress If they attempt to profit from the rebate pay ments," he said. He also warned that an JUv U r--JI .h-rr-r- SAT-N-Hb'E INTERIOR IBI I ' NAME LUSTRE I LiTPV Cnnrr iflCC attempt by the states to profit from the rebates may weaken support for revenue sharing. Packwood explained that both the Senate and the House Committee Reports on the bill contained the statement, "the refunds under the bill do not Involve any reduction in the taxpayer's Federal Income tax liability as such for 1974." The Attorney General of Oregon has decided the rebate will be treated as a reduction of Federal income taxes paid for 1974, which reduces the state tax deduction for federal Income taxes paid and leads to a recomputation of state taxes. "The resolution I have introduced today does not attempt to alter the power of a state to establish Its own income tax laws.
