pointers in preventing cruelty to animals SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Cooperation and when that fails litigation are keys to educating the public on its responsibilities toward the care of its pets an animal Ights advocate says Richard Avanzino president of the San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says that approach decreased the number of cats and dogs being euthanized in his city from 65000 three decades ago to leu than 4000 this year With a heightened concern for animal welfare Avanzi-n- o said more landlords will rent apartments to pet owners and Californians dip into their pocketbooks producing millions for the sake of their furry friends “It’s because of one simple word cooperation” he told crowd of 50 Utah residents attending the Companion Animals in Crisis Symposium But the attorney says if cooperation doesn’t make there’s always the courts more “Either sue or be sued every month” Avanzino said "When people know that’s your attitude it changes the way you communicate” By the end of this year his group guarantees that every adoptable animal in San Francisco will have a home One California university has agreed to stop any research involving animals if the SFSPCA objects to it And the number of landlords allowing pets in apartments hu risen firm 11 percent to 57 percent!hesaid Participants at the symposium were looking for solu tions to pet overpopulation euthanasia cruelty and the dearth ofapartments for animal owners Avanzino gave some examples of what has worked in ly San Francisco: A program that gives $5 for every animal a person brings in to be spayed or neutered His organization teaches renters how to “put their best paw forward” with pets that are given to landlords The group offers a $3000 reward to anyone turning in a person who abandons i cat It also guarantees to pay $5000 to landlords whose properties are damaged by pets Finally many attorneys volunteer for the SFSCPA “They get on the phone (to landlords who turn away a tenant because of an animal) and say ‘Hello? Are you sure you want to do this? Because I'm a lawyer and I’m willing to go to court for free”' Avanzino said Westerners voice frustration with federal policy on public lands LAS VEGAS (AP) — Western cattle ranchers loggers sad miners gave Republican strategists an earful this weekend as they expressed their outrage over public land policies they say are threatening their way of life ‘“I remember when there wasn't a question about bow you'd use natural resources” said Detnir Dahl a cattle rancher from Elko and past Republican candidate for the US Senate “Now we have two groups in this country who are in a contest to see w hether w e are going to continue to use our resources or how much ire we going :o use them” Dahl and others attending the Wr&ern Suits Republican Leadership Conference here said they are frustrated about having to fight for grazing permits for land that — in some cases — they have Presidential race — Page 5 maintained for generations Others said threatened by the logtheir livelihood ging restrictions and limitations imposed the West the Endangered by regulations such “TWo weeks ago I was with a friend Species Act during the psst decade or two who is a big game outfitter out at YelMore than 100 Westerners packed an lowstone Park and one of his competitors had just lost his arm in an encounter MGM Grand meeting room at the cona grizzly bear" said Dicmer Thie with entithe ference Saturday for workshop tled “Western Public Lands: The Future chairman of the Wyoming Republican for the Natural Resource and Agriculture Party “I cite that because in the East Industries” Several congressional lead- they are not particularly concerned about attendees passionatethat They are not particularly concerned ers were present views aired their frequently about what the wolves will do to the ly complaining about the indifference they herds — the cattle and the sheep herds believe the rest of the country has toward — in the West u u u cll Lce-How- ell V’-- j explain details of students’ loans including interest and monthly payments this out we had some of our students march right back in and say T don’t want your ' money”’ Christensen told The Salt Lake Tribune “Most students at USU don’t even take out loans and those who do are fairly conservative” said Steve Sharp associate director of financial aid and author of ! the computer program that generates die letter But there are a few who see loans as a quid way to get cash for a car or stereo It’s possible for an undergraduate to rack up more luncheon ed” for the year by at least one business Businesses that join the partnership may select a school or schools and help out by donating money materials or time “One company offers intern- Hunting appears to be on the rebound ' kick-of- f one-ten- th officials The letters effort kicks off ut been invited to hear the sales hope students will borrow even less money after reading the “Student Loan Caution Letters’’ circulated by the school all-o- Thursday with a lunch to which 90 businesses in the county have el comparer average of about $22000 said Val Christensen vice president for student ser- Jensen staff writer SALT LAKE CTTY (AP) — A weekend storm that blanketed northern Utah’s mountains with nearly 2 feet of snow is not necessarily a weather omen of an early winter Ed Carl lead forecaster at die National Weather Service in Salt Lake City said snow fell Sunday mainly in Utah County and along Salt Lake City’s bench area which had about 5 indies Springvule had 7 inches Big and Little Cottonwood canyons recorded amounts of more than a foot with Aka registering 15 inches of snow “This is the third time we’ve had snow so far this year” Carl said “But it’s the first time in the “We need to make that a priority and as we grow in political significance in the country we can make those things priorities in Washington" Cy Jamison the former director of the Bureau of Land Management and a for- mer congressional candidate from Billings Mont urged the group to edu- cate people about Western issues and to fight for the consolidation and budget cutting of federal agencies ‘The American public is not quite w ith us yet” be said “We have to bring them up so they have the same knowledge level of the problems that we're feeling in the West1 Jamison said he is optimistic that Washington DC will become more friendly toward the West if one of the many Republican presidential contenders conference is who attended the four-da- y elected in 1996 Sen Phil Gramm began his for givhis stressing support speech by ing states more control over public lands 1 want you to know that as president I will take up your fight in the war on the West” be said “And that with public property that land belongs Jo the people indnottt the government True noted that people outside of the West don’t differentiate between national parks and Bureau of Land Management properties and failed to understand that people depend on BLM lands for their existence |
