Anthony Ytuiri, R Ontario, said today he has introduced a bill lhat would bar levying of property tuxes on leases of slate and federal land Ylurri said Ihe Senate bill was aimed primarily at keeping leases held by cattlemen on Bureau ol I.and Management land off prop erty tnx rolls. This bill would have the effect of reversing a decision of Ihe Ore gon Supreme Court last week thai held the land taxable. Yturri said such leased lands never have boon taxed as prop- crly. He said cattlemen who have Ihe leases already are carrying a heavy tax load on their property! and calllc. This would not affect any land 'niT-scnllv lvivinc taxes." Ylurri Rep. Frank Wcatlierfoi'd. D- Olex, said he would fight lo havL Ihe hill killed because he fell tlu lux was just and should be paid. "I don't see any reason why u man shouldn't pay his share of county government through taxes en his land or leased land," Wealherford said. In Baker County, he said, 82 per cent of tlie land is federally owned and in Malheur County about 80 per cent is federal land. Bv taxing these leases, Wcatlier foi'd said, it would spread oul (he lax base and reduce lhc nullate on all other businesses within lhc! couniy.

Man Who Tried To Enter Jail Is Fined $100 PORTLAND (API-Frank Decoy; of Portland, who tried to serve a 30-day jail term for his former brother-in-law, was fined $100 aft er pleading guilty to a charge of indirect contempt of court here. Decoy told the court Verle Penney, his former brother-in-; law, had offered him $100 to serve a jail term for bootlegging. Decoy was admitted to the jail, but the identification bureau soon learned he was the wrong man. Penney was then apprehended, and the right prisoner finally went inlo jail. Decoy said the $100 Pen ney offered him has not been paid. The indirect contempt charge came after a search through the lawbooks. "I'll say frankly that I've been unahle lo find any case similar lo this," said Circuit Judge Alan F. Davis. "Slay away from your brother-in-law," Davis advised Decoy. Davis allowed Decoy to pay the fine on the installment plan at $5 a month after Decoy said he had a steady job in Roseburg.

The measure was introduced in the legislature by Representative Carrol Howe. Sisemore pointed out lhat the bill would avoid the uso of protested warrants for the coun ty. The accumulated funds would cover expenditures from the tax supported budgets for the period, from July 1, the beginning of the fiscal year, until taxes begin to come in about Nov. 15. The measure was adopted unanimously by the board. A let ter of support for the bill was authorized. Sisemore also called attention to another bill which would change the joint tenancy lax. He staled his opposition to the bill which would virtually eliminate the ad vantages of joint tenancy of prop erty such as a husband and wife with right of survivorship and would result in property that is now taxed one and one-half times, being taxed two times. He also invited the public lo express their opinions on any leg- islative matters to the local and state affairs committee which meets each Monday at 3:30 p.m. in the chamber of commerce of fices. Dr. William Holford reported on national affairs and urged the chamber to support a searching inquiry into the background of Wilbur J. Cohen who has been nominated by President Kennedy for the position of assistant secre tary of the Department of Health and Welfare. Dr. Holford told the group that material had been brought to his attention which cast a serious. doubt on Cohen's fitness to fill the office. The board agreed to dispatch telegram to the Senate asking thai such an intensive study of Cohen's; background be made prior to at-1 turning the nomination.
