Dog Pack

he'd never seen such a thing

Tuesday awarded $612.50 to
Charles A. Oursler, Brinklow

killed seven Holstein bulls and
heifers the night of Octo-
Der "a.
The claim was among total
of $1082 authorized by the coun-
ty in livestock claims. Predators
in each of the four cases were
listed as unknown wild dogs"
Councilman Houston B. Nc.
Ceney an acknowledged "city
boy" said he found it hard to
understand how dogs could
attack and kill Holstein bulls.
Councilman Jerry T. Williams,
of Damascus. remarked in an
aside that although he investi-
gated the claim, he had never in
his life seen a dog attack bull.
Both of the men, however. made
ii clear they did not doubt Ours.

Procedure in making claim
for livestock killed by unknown
wild dogs - the only animal
against which claims have been
settled by Montgomery County
is for the owner to have three
disinterested parties swear to the
truth of the claim before a Jus.
tice of the Peace. The owner
must similarly swear.

cattleman. One of Oursler's
cattle hands came running back
to his house fora shotgun after
he saw the dogs attacking the
cattle, Oursler said. The dogs
were gone when he went back to
the scene, OurSler said.
Each of the cattle was six
months old or more and
weighed 500 pounds or more.
according TO OursIer. Four
were pure-bred, he said.

Services
Are Costly,
Reese Says

Facts about county finances
and the proposed 1959-60 budget
were outlined Tuesday night by
County Mana ger Melvin L.
Reese In a seven.page address to
the Damascus Lions Club.
What you need and what you
want - schools, roads, Libraries,
more police protection, trees,
street lighting and many,
many more - all cost money"
Reese said. "And," he added,
ut must be provided by you"
Reese told the Lions that this
years proposed record budget
Of S72 million and the resulting
need for a accent tax hike on
personal property stems pri-
marily from the so-called flight
to the suburbs"
New services required by the
spiraling thousands Of newcom-
ers must be met, Reese said, and
added expenditures and revenue
are musts. That's where you
and /, the taxpayers, enter the
picture" he said.
Reese said the current budget
proposal could determine TO a
large extent future tax bills.
