Would Forbid
Levying Tax
SALEM (AP) Sen. 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

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.

two and one-half per ctnt per year,
to 20 per cent to be accumulat
ed at the rate of five per cent
per year.
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.
Francis Van Landrum, chair
man of the Klamath County Road
Advisory Committee, invited the
directors to attend a no-host din
ner for the Board of Governors
of the Winncmucca-to the-Sea Or
ganization Friday night at 6:30
in the Pelican Parly Room.

Measure Would Enlarge
Oregon Aid
By PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
SALEM (AP) Legislation to in
'crease state aid to local school
districts to 50 per cent by 1965
was introduced in the Oregon Leg
islature today by the Senate Edu
cation Committee.
The state now pays about 38 pen
cent of school costs. The Dill
would boost this to 42 per cent
next year, and reach the 50 per
cent level in four years.
The bill, prepared by the Legis-
lative Interim Committee on Edii-
cation, also would provide for a
new distribution formula based on
90 per cent flat grants and 10 per
cent equalization. The equalization
would be achieved within coun
ties. The iill is expected to spark
hot debates.
Sen. Carl Francis, R-Dayton,
introduced a bill to have the state
pay low-income people who suffer
catastrophic illness, or doctor and
hospital bills which are far too
high for them to afford.

The Klamath County tax col
lector's office, headed by Mrs
Esther Newell, was busy counting;
second quarter tax payments
Thursday morning.
Second quarter payments were
due Wednesday. Interest will be
added to taxes received after
Wednesday, which will amount to
a delinquent penalty.
Mrs. Newell, who is chief dep
uty tax collector under Sheriff!
Murray Britton, said no tabula
tion of second quarter payments
had yet been tabulated. She said
taxpayers had the option of pay
ing in one lump sum last Novem
ber and receiving a three per
cent discount or paying in four
quarterly installments. No dis
count is made for prompt quar-j
terly payments.
A total of J5.288.658.96 was cer
tified for collection this year in
personal and property taxes. The
average delinquent rate is about
eight per cent, which means that
approximately $400,000 will remain
to be collected at the end of the
