SNAKE CASE COILS INTO COURT;
POINT Is: WHAT Is A CHICKEN?
Secretary of Humane Society Seeks Complaint
Against Inspector Carlson; Houk Refuses
to Recognize Suspension.

he was exceeding his authority or not
doing his duty ne would ask that he
be discharged at once from the serv-
Ice Of the city,
The question hinges entirely on the
query. what is a chicGenp Both the
state law and the city ordinance pro-
vide that II shall be the duty of the
humane officer to arrest persons who
are cruel to animals. and both state
law and city ordinance provide that
any person who tortures animals is
guilty OF a misdemeanor. Conceding
that the contemplation of being swal
lowed alive by a snake constitutes tor
ture in the mind of a chicken the ap-
plica ton OF the law and the ordinance
depends solely on whether or not
chicken is an animal. On this subject
many authorities may be quoted. Here
are a few:
Police Inspector Carl A. Carlson-A
chicken is not an animal within the
meaning Of the ordinance
Humane Officer John Eouk-I be-
lieve that a chicken Is both common
" and technically classified as an ami
NAL.
Century dictionary-A chicken is
fowl; q fowl is a bird; bird Is an
animal.
Dean Jonathan Swlft-A chicken Is
a woman. not more than 80 years old.
Revised laws OF Utah-An animal
within the meaning OF this act shall
be held TO mean any brute crea ture.
Century dictionary-A brute crea-
ture is an animal other than hu-
man being.
