circulated throughout the stale

tion, with 2,200 signatures, was
presented to Gov. Mark Hatfield
last Friday by the Central Point

The governor has expressed
sympathy for the hunter's posi

shortage of deer. He pointed out
that the game commission has
supplied him with proof that the

despite the heavy kill of does.
Chauncey Florey, Medford, who
presented the petition has said

to make the game commissioners

elective and subject to the will

operation of the commission
There seems to be no doubt that
the hunters are up in arms and
some action is called for either
by the governor or the game
commission. It is estimated that
nearly 30.000 hunters will sign
petitions and neither the gover
nor nor the commission can turn
a deaf ear to this segment of the
population. Obviously, the proof
furnished by the commission is
something less than what it takes
lo satisfy the hunters. It's going
to take more than statistics.
It is already loo late to refer
any tax measure to the people
while the legislature is still in
session, as was proposed by Gov
ernor Hatfield. Since it takes 45
days to hold such an election, it
would be the latter part of April
before it could possibly be held
as, as of this week, the lawmak
ers - have no idea of what tax
proposal they will come up with
this early in the session.
The taxation committee of the
house has begun its study of the
various tax proposals but no spe
cific recommendation Ls expected
from them for sometime. Speaker
of the House Clarence Barton
said this week that the committee
will probably await action by the
joint Senate and House Ways and
Means Committee to see what
the final budget will total.
the speaker reiterated that the
lawmakers would no doubt pass
the fairest lax bill that they can
and then leave it up In the people
lo either accept it or refer it
by referendum.
Senate President Ben Musa
says the Society of Certified Pub
lic Accountants is now conduct
ing a study of the various tax
proposals to determine the im
pact on the taxpayer. He points
out that this is perhaps more
important than the revenue in
volved, for while revenue can be
predicted, the resulting impact on
segments of our economy is most
important.
A pink donkey was keeping the
Republican elephant company on

Monday as Senate President Ben
Musa took over as acting gover
nor for the day. Hatfield's sud
den trip to Washington. D.C., gave
Senator Musa the first opportuni
ty to sit in the governor's chair
He will again be governor on
Feb. 12 when Governor Hatfield
travels to Southern California for
a speaking engagement.
This Thursday was the final
day for lawmakers to introduce
bills without priority. From
here on individual members will
have to use their priorities, of
which they each have three, to
introduce legislation. They will
not all use them and there will
lie some swapping done amongst
them as the session progresses.
Although the number of bills
introduced thus lar is less than
in the I9R1 session for this date,
there are more than enough in
preparation by the legislative
counsel's oflice to offset this so
the prediction that some I. Son
hills will lie dropped in the hop
per this session may be fairly
accurate.

Terrorists
Hack Five
In Africa
EN'GCOBO. South Africa 'UPI
Terrorists hacked to death five
white persons today as they lay
sleeping in their house trailers on
a lonely road near Engcobo. The
victims included four members of
one family, including two young
girls.
Police immediately spread a
dragnet over the areo for the kill
ers, believed lo be members of
Ihe dreaded African underground
organization which recently staged
riots in Queenstown and Paarl.
The victims were identified as
Xorman Crohelaar; his wile. Na
lalie: and their two daughters.
Edna, 14. and Dawn 11. The fifth
victim as Dereck Thompson, 19,
a mechanic.
The bodies of th;- Grobelaar
family were badly mutilated. They
had been slashed with such na
tive weapons as pangas, assegais
and axes. Thompson's body was
found lying half out of his trailer.
It had been badly charred when
the trailer was set on fire.
Grobelaar and his family had
been camping on the road for
about a month. He was a contrac
tor supplying material for a new
road being built.
First word of the killings came
when a terrified African guard
roused construction gang foreman
Douglas. Bridger, an uncle of Gro-
belaar's, who was asleep in a
house trailer about 500 yards up
the road.
Bridger and three Africans ran
to the Grobelaar trailer, where
they found the bodies. Fearing
that their attackers might still he
in the area, Bridger left lo call
police.
The attacks took place in Tcm
buland, an area of the new Trans
kei Bantu "homeland."
Observers said the incident
could affect the chances of a bill
now bclore the South African Par
liament to give the Iranskei lim
ited self government.
The 20.000 white residents in Ihe
Transkeian territories reportedly
have been apprehensive about
their future as isolated commu
nities within a region ruled by
blacks.
