MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON 6 SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER ItO. 1 - SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 30, 1363 B 5 MEDFORD MAIL THIBUMI. MEDFORD. OREGON County Dog Control f Procedure Efficient INSIDE 'RUN' - When a dog is first brought in it is placed in an inside "run" until It calms down. The county pound has seven inside runs and seven outside runs. The pound also has puppy cages and cat cages. 'ir-i ' mm? BEHIND BARS - Dogs are said to be man's best friend. But man docs not treat them thai way. Thus, some dogs end up behind bars without an owner. These two puppies had no owner until they were taken to the pound, through which they found a home. People interested in obtaining a dog may do so by paying $1 fee, a low board fee, and the license fee. (Editor's not: National Dog Week was observed lact week. Although laid to be man's best friend, the dog has created problems both in urban and rural areas. The following story reviowi Jackson county's elfort for dog control,) By MARGIE GOOD Mail Tribune Staff Writer "Dors are man's best friends." This has been said through out the history of America. Although it may not be true, the fad that the dog population has riren ns the h u m a n population lias in creased adds truth to the statement. Statistics show that in 1037 there were 12 dogs for every family in the United Slates. In Jackson county in 1057 more than 6,000 licenses were sold. Five years later In 1961 nearly 0,000 licenses were sold. With this increase in the dog population, control has become a major problem. Control Since 1933 Jackson count v has had some form of control since 1933, when the state legisla lure passed a bill setting up control of dogs. Since 1933, Jackson county has been dog control district, and Jackson county residents have had to purchase licenses for dogs. Money obtained from the fees is turned over to the counly treasurer, who keeps it in a dog license fund. Pay ments of claims made against dogs Injuring or killing live stock is taken from the fund, and the dog control officer is paid as are other eNpenses of enforcing dog control laws. In 1960. the people of Jack on county went to the polls to vote on whether dogs should run at large. In the first election, the dog leash law was passed, but in a later vote. Hie proposal was re jected. The leash law went into effect only In Ashland, Mcdford. and four precincts In t lie county. The county Is given the primary responsibility of en forcing and Implementing the law. The procedure for en forcement and penalties for violation is provided In state laws.

Hnglcr has two men and three wo men working under him. The three men travel a com bined 4,700 miles a month answering complaints, which average about 13 per day. Complaints range from dogs without a license to dugs kill ing livestock. In 1961, there were more than 4,700 com plaints. Jackson county's tlog con trol district is operating effi ciently at the present lime, according to Hagler. During the 1961 dog control officer convention, Jackson county ranked second in the stale in efficiency, and ranked better than districts with more work crs, he noted. Could B Better Although the district Is ef ficient, it could be belter, bin to make it belter several things are needed. More room is needed al the dog pound. Although the pound is new, It is overcrowd ed. Radios should be installed in the two trucks, to belter utilize time and money. Another useful Item need- i ed is a tranquilizer pun. This j would enable the officer to j put the dog in a daze so it ' could be handled without I harming it, Ilaglcr said. j These things take money, and the fund is low, lie noted. 1 Dog control is a contro versial item. The question al ways arises: "How much con trol should there be?" Oregon laws on dog control are flex ible, and it Is left up to the people In each county as to how much control there should be.

MOULTON United Press International Washington lUPll - The Unit ed Stales Supreme Court re convenes Monday with two justices named by President Kennedy bringing a fresh outlook to continuing prob lems of race relations, legis lative reapportionment and religion in public schools. New phases of these old Is sues top the docket of about 1,100 cases-a record for the start of a new term. A batch of appeuls from lunch counter "sit-in" demon strators already has been ac cepted for review and will later be scheduled for argu ment. A challenge to Geor gia's county unit election sys tym is in the same status. Another dozen or more cases were argued last term but, because of the changes in the court's membership, were carried over for re-argument. Observers will be watch ing for voting trends stem ming from the arrival on the bench of the two Kennedy appointees, Justice Byron R. White who took his seat last term, and former Secretary of Labor Arthur J. Goldberg, Absent for the first time In 20 years will be Justice Felix Frankfurter, a powerful voice against the court's more lib eral advocates of individual liberties. Also missing will be Justice Charles E. Whittaker. Both jurists were forced to retire for reasons of health. Goldberg, once a big name labor lawyer, will be sworn in to succeed Frank furter when the opening session starts at 10 a.m., EDT. White, who came from a high post in the justice de partment, took his seat last April IB. He had only a brief tenure before the summer adjournment on June 25. But the voles of these two freshmen justices will be important In determin ing the role the court may now play In the nation'i at .fairs. , If either leans toward the liberal bloc, the balance of power would swing to the group consisting of Chief Justice Earl Warren and Justice Hugo L. Black, William O. Douglas and William J. Brennan Jr. Justice Potter Stewart, who took his seat in 1959, has held, the deciding vote In numerous cases where the claims of the individual were balanced against gov ernmental authority. He has voted more with the conservatives than with the liberals. The two remaining mem bers of the conservative wing are justices Tom C. Clark and John M. Harlan. The justices will meet in private conference this week to decide which of the 600 or so cases filed during the summer will be heard. Plans Being Made For Fisher Visit Ashland - Plans are being made and events scheduled for the visit of Carl Fisher, Re publican for congress from the fourth district, to Ashland Tuesday, Oct. 9, according to Mrs. R, G. Tabor, co-chairman in charge of arrangements. A coffee hour to which the public Is invited has been scheduled from 10 a.m. to noon in the Parish hall of the Trinity Episcopal church. Mrs. Phil Selby, Ashland campaign manager for Fisher, said at that time the candi date will present his platform on district, state and national issues and answer questions from the audience. "Mr. Fisher is anxious to meet and talk with all voters in Jackson county, regardless of party affiliation," Mrs. Sel by said, "because he feels the that it is imperative that ev Issues are of auch Importance cry voter be informed on them." Other events and activities In connection with Fisher's visit are still In the planning stage, Mrs. Tabor said. The upheaval caused by tha court's 1954 school desegrega tion decision and subsequent rulings on race problems still is retleeted in the court' docket. Negro parents are objecting to the racial transfer provis ions of school integration plans for Knoxville and lor Davidson county, near Nash ville, Tenn. They say the pro cedures merely preserve seg regation. Justice department efforts in support of Negro voting rights and its attempts to wipe out discrimination in interstate travel have now reached the supreme court level. As an aftermath of the "freedom rider" movement last fall, the Kennedy admin istration urged new interstate commerce commission regula tions forbidding interstate bus and railroad companies from using waiting room and other terminal facilities that are regregated. Armed with the resulting new regulations, the justice department sued In several southern areas to bar state interference with desegrega tion. Two of these actions, in Louisiana and Georgia, are now on appeal to the high court. The stales do not dispute the constitutionality of the regulations, but they contend they interfere with commerce inside the state-a matter of state regulation. " On the matter of city vs. rural voting, the govern ment obtained from the 5th circuit an order requiring that 94 specified Negroes be registered in Macon county, Ala., seat of famed Tuskegee Institute. Another temporary 8th circuit order forbade further racial dis crimination in registering Negroes in Forrest county. Miss. These the Supreme , Court must examine, Two important sequela to the New York prayer de cision of last June 23 have been appealed. They deal with Bible reading in the public schools of Baltimore, Md., and Abington Town ship, Pa. In the Baltimore case, recitation of the Lord's prayer is another source of objection. From Clackamas County, Ore., there is a challenge to -the state's "free text book statute," under which books are supplied to Cath olic schools at public ex pense. Another appeal concerns the leasing to a Catholic organization in Covington, Ky of a county-city hos pital built with public funds. Certain taxpayers objected. The after effects of last term's precedent shattering decision on malapportion ment of state legislatures are also being felt as the new term opens. The ruling, in a Tennessee case, opened tha doors of lower federal trib unals lo complaints about im balance between city and rural representation. Alabama and Michigan have presented apportion ment problems. An issue of importance in the labor-management field deals with the legality under the national labor relations act of the "agency shop." Under this system, an em ployee must contribute to collective bargaining costs but need not join a union. The 6th U. S. circuit of ap peals ruled the agency shop illegal last 'June 8 in a case Involving General Motora Corp. plants in Indiana. The National Labor Relations board has appealed to the Supreme Court.
