Sunday, August 17, 1952 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE Emergency Fund Not Available for Hogs Salem (U.R) Attorney Gener al George Neuner Saturday told Gov. Douglas McKay that he has no legal authority to spend money from the emergency fund to 'indemnity owners of swine slaughtered by order of the State Department of Agriculture be cause they were carriers of vesi cular exanthema. Neuner held that the gover nor's emergency fund can be ex pended for special requests in connection with the governor's duties as imposed by law, but held that, since no specific law covered paying owners of infect ed swine, he could not legally pay claims for losses sustained by the owners. Under the circumstances, Neu ner said, the owners of the in fected hogs that have been de stroyed must either go into court or apply to the legislature for financial relief.
