HOUSE FIRS 1 rtoes i REDS GAIN
DEEP TAX CUT
(Continued From Page One)
property taxes within school dis
trict, or 1.000.000 more than
both houses voted several days
ago.
Rep. Burt K. Snyder, Lake-
view, one of the conferees, point
ed out that 160,000 of the 200,-
000 income taxpayers pay an
average tax of Sll a year, and
that it wouldn't be worth while
to give them refunds of about $3,
as Hall s proposal provides. Sny
der charged that Hall is motlvat
ed by "political ambitions."
The following representatives
voted against the conference
committee report, presumably
because all want a reduction to
apply to payments made this
year.
Bryson, Chadwick, D e i c h,
Dickson, Finseth, Hall, Martin,
Meyers, Moore, Pearson, Perry,
Pier, Steelhammer and Wells.
Refunds Impractical
The committee held It is Im
practical to give an income tax
reduction effective with pay
ments made this year, because it
would compel the state tax com
mission to make more than 50,
000 refunds.
The plan Is the same as that
approved by the senate, except
for the giving of $1,000,000 a
year extra to school districts.
The house had previously voted
to reduce income taxes 10 per
cent this year, and 11.62 per
cent with payments starting next
year.
.The size of the reduction de
pends on how much of a surplus
is on hand next July 1, when
the tax commission would esti
mate next year's collections and
next year's rates. But the best
estimate, based on a surplus of
$12,000,000 on hand July 1, is
that taxes payable next year will
be cut about 35 per cent if both
houses approve it, '

said Hitler had ordered that
France be stripped of every
able-bodied male between 18
and 40 who might join the al
lied iorces in the event of a
landing in France, and declared
the order applied to men up to
50 who are not working direct
ly for the nazis.
' Coffee houses, movies and
even private homes are being
combed by the gestapo for men
who can be transported to Ger

The Dakar radio said -200
French people, most of them

Lyons and Marseilles regions
when they tried to stop trains

taxes as usual.
2. By , Chairman Doughton
(D-N.C), to apply the much soft
er 1941 rates and exemptions to
1942 income and let the taxpay
ers amortize the remaining 1942
obligation over a relatively
short period of time while sim
ultaneously remitting on taxes
for the current year. This
would wipe out the 1942 tax
altogether for a large number of
persons and reduce the obliga
tion for others.
The committee's action left in
doubt the future of pay as you
go taxation. However, com
mittee members indicated they
would turn again to a proposal
by Representatives Disney (D-
Okla.) and Gearhart (R-Calif .) to
continue the present system of
collecting taxes in one year on
the basis of income the previous
year, but with a 20. per. cent
withholding levy against the
taxable portions of wages and
salaries through weekly or
monthly deductions from pay
envelopes and salary checks.

As Council Eyes Ordinance
(Continued from Page One)
to eating dogs as he had under
stood a certain man had done in
town not long ago.
But Mayor Houston was out
to carry his point and he re
viewed world rocking events,
from future taxation, battles, tho
juvenile problem, city streets,
war bonds. Red Cross and social
security for police and firemen,
"It makes the problem of dog
controversy pale into insignif
icance," ended the mayor. There
was a round of applause.
First reference to any change
in the npw ordinance which has
passed the first and second read
ing, was made when Mayor
Houston said "if the ordinance
is too severe it should be mod
erated." He then called for dis
cussion and the dog lovers were
ready.
First to speak "was Alvln E.
Macartney, 2025 LeRoy street.
He asked for the ordinance to
be read again for the benefit of
the audience. At that point
Bussman said that he felt sec
tion 3, referring to shooting dogs
in the park, should be eliminated
entirely and Houston said this
should be left up to the park
board.
Vote Suggested
When Councilman Walter
Wiesendanger made a motion
that the time should be modified
from May 1 to September 1,
there was a rumble of "no" from
the audience.
Phayo Pfefferle, 1847 Sargent
street, reported residents of his
district thought the ordinance
too drastic and that last year's
two months' confinement rule
was also. He also told the coun
cil that if any shooting was go
ing on he didn't want his chil
dren in the street
Mr. and Mrs. Don Kenyon,
1960 Harriman, were heard next.
Kenyon suggested a vote of the
people be called through the
newspaper and Houston said that
would not be legal but if dog
owners wanted to spend from
$300 to $500 for a special elec
tion, that could be made pos
sible. Mrs. Kenyon told the
council that as license fees
weren't doing the dogs any good,
such fees might as well be ap
plied on an election.
"It's just about as tough to
kick out a dog as a child,
especially when it hurts the
kids," spoke up W. E. Guyer,
2235 Biehn street, who defended
dogs as pets. Guyer also ob
served that Klamath Falls gar
dens were not of such beauty as
they might be and compared this
town to Salem and Spokane.
Hector J. McGilvary, 2161
Eberlein street, who has been a
dog lover "since I was knee high
to a grasshopper," told the coun
cil that he felt you could tie up'
a dog "30 days, 60 days, 120 days
or 12 months and they wouldn't
learn the lesson- of not burying
bones or digging up flowers."
McGilvary said howling dogs on
ropes caused more grief last
year than any damage that could
have been done.
Rebuke
Urging a feeling of tolerance,
William Frohnmayer was one of
the most ardent defenders. He
asked if there, was some group
"putting pressure on the council-

ilCHtl turn
mcnT" Before the evening was
over Frohnmayer had Incurred
the wrath of the council and
Muyor Houston advised him he
wduld call him out of order in
the future.
H. D. Landrum was the only
garden defender to speak up and
said "If my cabbuges go in on
anybody's property they can
throw them In the pot. . Tlio
town's no place for dogs and it
keeps me busy rocking dogs out
of my yard." John McFec, 2037
Fremont street, siiid he thought
the "wrong crowd" was in at
tendance. "Pcoplo hero hnvo
respect for their dons and they
should look into tho lack of cure
by others."
Another speaker was W. E.
Brightman, 829 Grant street,
who spoke the minds of many
present when he said the city
should enforce the law of caring
for dogs.
Councilmnn Cantrall replied
with this, "if people spend one
half as much time helping the
humane society we wouldn't be
bothered with this ordinance."
Others to address the council
included Howard Perncll, South
Riverside, Jack Murphy, 722
Doty street; Paul Pfefferle, 2436
Orchard avenue, F. W. Bertram,
local merchant, J. Fred Flock,
201 Jefferson street; Glenn
Evans, 646 Eldorado, and H. E.
Wheeler, veterinary.
Pfefferle suggested that the
council "throw the ordinance out
and not get any more like it. I
stood up for prohibition and it
was said we weren't properly
represented. That's the way
with this dog question. The
other side isn't represented. I
guess they aren't interested."
Bertram reviewed a similar
problem which came up in
Marshfield a number of years
ago in which windows were
broken and "old Chief Carter"
couldn't walk down the street.
Dr. Wheeler suggested that all
stray dogs be restricted and sug
gested spaying all females and
confining dogs at night.
The idea of a special election
was not accepted well by the
audience, all of whom appeared
to be taxpayers as well as dog
lovers. Tabling the ordinance
or submitting a petition asking,
that confinement be stricken
from the records was the favor
able reaction. .
City Attorney Joe Carnahan
brought a laugh from the aud
ience when he said that the
council "may heed or disregard
a petition of the people but
whether it would be wise to dis
regard the voice of the people
I don't know."
The two-hour discussion was
ended when Counciimaa Buss
man made the motion that "if
dog lovers and owners keep their
dogs locked up from sundown
to sunup 12 months out of the
year, and cooperate with the
humane society, notify them of
strays, the ordinance of 60 days,
May 1 to July 1, should be re
pealed. Cooperation should be
checked by mid-April and then
action could be taken. The coun
cil approved this move.
The council said it would ac-
