The Gazette-Tirres, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday March 29, 1979 THIRTEEN Bellamy sponsors bill to punish 'slob hunters By Rep. Bill Bellamy Every year in the fall, particularly in the month of October, a caravan of camp ers and four wheel drive vehicles head out of Portland and the urban centers of the Willamette Valley their des tinationthe wilds of Eastern and Western Oregon, prime hunting grounds for every thing from mule to deer to wild turkey- Every year during these fall months the farmers and ranchers of Western and Eastern Oregon suffer from destruction of property and in at least one extreme case, a threat to life and limb. This session we see several bills affecting the Fish and Wildlife Commission in the areas of increasing penal ties for violations of game ordinances. I am sponsoring HB 2565 which increases the penalties for criminal trespass. A per son who had a license, tag or permit revoked for the first time will be unable to obtain another license, tag or permit for an increased period of 24 months, whereas before the period was 18 months. A second violation will limit the person from hunting or fishing for three years. A third violation shall constitute a five year waiting period. One of the motivations behind these increased penalties stems from an incident which occur ed last fall to a rancher in Eastern Oregon. The rancher found two men with rifles trespassing on his land and asked them to leave. The men reacted bv knocking the rancher down, kicking him in the stomach, beating him with his own rifle until it broke, and kidnapping a 17 year old boy at gun point. The rancher spent 16 days in the hospital. This rancher has received several phone calls from complete strangers indi- firar7f?rto rare rf w n tttrnimimjtttiiwum ,M..M5TOct! ... s V " i ,XV ' H .

I urge people who support these increased penalties for trespass to testify on the bill when it comes up for hearing. I am sponsoring HB 2566, which removes killing of livestock from its listing as a cruelty to animal violation. This bill raises killing of livestock to a Class C felony punishable by a fine of $250 or 30 days in a county jail. This bill is an outgrowth from the numerous cases of livestock killed each year by misguided hunters. Fish and Wildlife violation fines will increase in three categories, also. Aiding a violator will cost as much as it does for the person directly creating the offense. Illegal sale or possession of wildlife parts, such as salmon eggs, will be $500. And unlawful possession of sport fish, in many cases, will be $500. More rigid penalties in these areas are needed until outdoor enthusiasts begin to respect property owners' rights and realize that the right to fish and hunt within our diminishing resource base is not a priveiege to be abused. Local Viets vet8 could lose education benefits Approximately 11,000 Viet nam Era veterans in Oregon will lose their entitlement to GI Bill educational benefits during the next year. The figure represents the total number of veterans who will have reached the tenth anniversary of their separa tion from military service, according to Mrs. Donna M. Arndt, director of the Veter ans Administration regional office in Portland. The law provides veterans with a ten-year limit to use educational and training bene fits. Mrs. Arndt said while some 53 per cent of Oregon veterans have used some or all of their GI Bill rights, there are thousands who can still make at least partial use of their remaining time. VA estimates on a nation wide basis more than half the number of veterans who have GI Bill eligibility today will lose it by 1984. "What we're emphasizing," Mrs. Arndt explained, "is the time factor. To make maximum use of GI Bill rights a veteran must be aware of the ten-year limit and get started well before times runs out." A typical Vietnam Era veteran, for example, might have left the service in 1973 having earned maximum training or educational entitle ment. If that same" veteran were to embark on a full-time, four-year college program, it should be started this year so it can be completed by 1983 when the veteran's eligibility expires. In any event, benefits would be payable only until the veteran reached the time limit no matter how far along the program was. "There are so many ways the GI Bill can be adapted to individual needs and circum stances," Mrs. Arndt said. "I wouldn't want anyone to lose their rights to this program simply because they let time slip by." She urged Oregon veterans who believe they may be eligible to call the Portland VA office.
