May Tax Dogs
HA*) Newsfeatures
(By Hoyt Ware)
RIO DE JANEIRO—90,000 dogs
in this South American capital are
in the mayor’s doghouse.
They eat meat, he says.
He sees no way to break them
of this expensive habit. So he has
proposed a "class” society for them
asking the council to tax them ac
cording to the amount of work
they do.
The mayor, Gen. Angelo Mendes
de Morais, suggests three classes
for dogs: working or watch dogs,
luxury dogs and apartment dogs.
Owners of dogs in the first cate
gory would have to pay only the
equivalent of $1 annual tax, the
second $5 and third $10.
The local Veterinary Medical
Service would enforce the law and
make final decisions on classifica
tion. But *he mayor has proposed
the following general rules:
To be considered a "working or
watch" dog a dog must guard cat
tle, grange, farm or rural zone, ac
company blind people, guard a fac
tory or commercial business place,
or guard a home with a yard larger
than 2,500 square yards.
The proposed law adds: “All
dogs living under conditions out
side of those mentioned in Article
One <above* will be considered
luxuries, including those for hunt
ing.”
The rules also say that “the size
or the race of the dog will not in
fluence a dog’s classification.”
The mayor says he knows his
suggestions sound funny but "good
or bad. all dogs eat and it so hap
pens that they eat one of man's
most important foodstuffs, meat."
Meat is rationed in Brazil.

WASHINGTON, (/P)—An inte

Germany, yesterday said 802 dis
