Group Seeks Compromise On Private Utility Taxes SACRAMENTO UPI-A legis lative committee proposed a com promise today to California's 10 year dispute over property tax rates on private utilities which would cost the state's common property taxpayers about 13 mil lion dollaoj a year. The committee, in a constitu tional amendment introduced in the Assembly, rejected the report of its out-of-state consultants which had recommended a 95 mil liuu uuiicu id aiiiii irum utilities to home owners and small busi nessmen. Assemblyman Glenn Coolidge iR-Fcltom. chairman of the 10- man committee o! members of both houses, explained that the proposal would mean a $12,500,000 tax benefit to railroads but would otherwise "legalize what we are doing now. At the present time private util ity property including railroads is assessed at 50 per cent of its mar ket value. Common property is as sessed at an average of 23.7 per cent. The solution reached by the Senate Okays Water Bill SACRAMENTO (UPI) A bill to protect the state's water rights for 10 years was approved by the Senate Wednesday. The bill by Sen. James Cobey (D-Merced) would require that the state renew its exemption from due diligence provisions on water filings Oct. 1, 1969, and every 10 years thereafter. California law requires that wa ter Tights granted to the state and other agencies must be developed with due diligence. The state, which holds rights to about 90 per cent of all water available, has been unable to de velop water projects with dili gence. The Legislature has been exempting the state from this re quirement and the present exemp tion is due to expire this year. Last week a Senate committee expressed doubt that Cobey's bill would get through the Assembly. Southern California legislators threatened earlier this year not to renew the due diligence ex emption this year unless the gov ernor's water program including projects to export water to South ern California is approved. Other Trials Of Dog Told OWASSO, Okla. (AP) - Little Richard, the spirited hound dog freed Wednesday from a rocky "tomb six days after being lured there by a smart coon, has had. other difficulties with the wily critters. In the future, 2'i-ycar-old Little Richard' probably would go into the same rocky bluff's crevice which had trapped him, his own er Larry Wilson said. Little Richard was under the care of Dr. John Collins, a vet crinarian in nearby Tulsa, today Collins said he had "every chance in the world to pull through. The hound was freed after Wil son and 200 volunteers chipped away at limestone and stubborn granite in a persistent vigil. Dynamite charges and jackham mors were used to widen the crev ice inch by inch. An air hammer removed the last boulder and Little Richard crawled feebly into his master's arms, whining affec tionately. "I think that coon knew exactly where he was going when he ran from Little Richard, said ilson. Young Musician To Give Concert DUNSMU1R-A youthful Duns- muir musician will play a trum pet solo in the Shasta Symphony Children's Concert at the Shasta High School auditorium on the eve ning of May 6 and two other mu sicians from Dunsmuir will be among those playing.

Carter played "The Magic Trumpet" by Burke. Tony Vigil is director of both bands. committee called for assessing common property and railroad property at 25 per cent of its value and utilities such as electric and telephone companies at 50 per cent. The committee's consultants had recommended taxing all property, utility and common, at 33 per cent of its cash worth. Coolidge explained that railroads were removed from the utility list because they arc faced with com petition from which other utilities are exempt. He said he would ask for hearing on the plan May 29. That would give proponents 21 days to push it through the Leg. islature before adjournment.

He compared the city hall with several buildings in downtown Dunsmuir that have had new store fronts and new interiors this past year and re marked that city hall was begin ning to look like a sore thumb. Mavor J. Morgan Jones re quested Christensen to make a master plan so city hall needs could be budgeted over several years and piece meal patching be avoided. Chief of Police Lee Clark added his nlea to Christensen's observ ance by commenting that- there was a danger of someone falling through the floor in the police de partment because of termite dam age.
