Attorney General Finds Idaho Agricultural Labor Act Likely Unconstitutional
Idaho Deputy Attorney General Warren Felton writes that the Agricultural Labor Act may be fatally defective and likely invalid if challenged. He argues the law infringes on freedom of speech and assembly for farm laborers, could violate equal protection and travel rights, and effectively bars picketing despite a stated allowance for lawful strikes.

Sheep Rancher Declines Comment On Eagle Killing
Wyoming rancher Herman Werner, named in Senate testimony over alleged eagle killings from a helicopter, says he will not comment until hysteria subsides and plans to offer his side with a full report. Officials accuse a Buffalo Flying Service pilot of killing around 800 eagles since last September, including 570 on Werner’s land. Werner, who oversees about 250,000 acres near Saratoga and Rawlins, avoids further remarks as critics worry for Wyoming cattlemen’s image amid predator-control controversy.
