Livestock Men Say Names Should Not Appear as Sponsors Salem (U.R) Two officials of the Western Oregon Live stock association say their names should not have appeared as ' co-sponsor of a House bill amending the brand inspection law. Albert Julian of Linn county, chairman of a stockmen's com mittee which studied the law, said it decided to go along with it. Vice-president Hubert Wil loughby of Harrisburg said he learned of the bill only a few days ago. Rep. Robert Steward (D-Keat-ing), chairman of the House Livestock committee and him self a Baker county stockman, said he had been assured by the Oregon Cattlemen's association that it was joined by. the other stockmen's groups in wanting the changes. Would Reduce Fees The bill would reduce the fee per head of cattle from 30 cents to 15 cents, would exempt calves under six months, and would add a special assessment of 10 cents a head for all cattle and horses over 6 months old and subject to taxation as per sonal property. This plan would save money for the dairymen who have op posed that system, Ed Coles of Prineville, representing the Cat tlemen's association said. But several Willamette valley dairymen said they and their county assessor oppoe the plan anyway, because of the nigh cost expected in collecting the assessment separately from the inspection fees now paid as cat tle are sold. A. R. Dickson, Klamath coun ty assessor, said his office, which has just changed its book keeping to conform with a re appraisal of property, would have to revise its system com pletely again to Collect the assessment. Among stockmen objecting to the proposed changes in' the law were Karl Arnold of Linn coun ty, Paul M. Rigord of the Ben ton County Farm Bureau feder ation, Rue Drager of Salem and Jack Cochran of Brownsville.

By WILLIAM WARREN United Press Staff Correspondent Salem (U.R) A bill that would free the Multnomah Ken nel club to hold dog races on horse race tracks, like those at Portland Meadows and the Mult nomah county fairgrounds, has the unanimous endorsement ' of the House State and Federal Af fairs committee. The measure, approved by the committee Friday afternoon, will be ready for third reading and final action on the floor of the House early next week. There has been talk of moving Portland's Coast league baseball from the Vaughn street ball park to Multnomah stadium, which would force dog racers to seek a new location. Present law prohibits dogs from being raced on the same track as other race animals. .The bill would remove that prohibition. A proposed memorial to Con gress opposing a congressional resolution allowing the presi dent to negotiate tariff reduc tions was first tabled by the committee and then removed from the table and "placed in the back of the book." The ac tion was expected to remove the measure from further consideration. The committee heard sharply opposed testimony on a reso lution favoring establishment of a medical coroner system in the state before it tabled the reso lution. Proposed Amendment . The measure would have placed on the ballot a proposed constitutional amendment to permit counties to make li censed physicians only eligible for the office of coroner. It would have been permissive leg islation if approved. Appearing on behalf of the resolution were representatives of the State Medical society and Mrs. Lars Frederickson, Albany funeral director. Osteopaths and chiropractors also approved the bill if it had been amended so as not to discriminate against them. Opposing the bill were nu merious mortician coroners who said it would be Impossible to get doctors in their counties to take the job as coroner due to the demands of the job and the prevailing practice of paying no salary.
