Woody Glasscock Challenges
Nelson Wolff's Eagle Proposal
Vrt v 11
Woody Glasscock, Democra-
tic candidate for the 21st
Congressional District race, was
in Llano last week seeking
support from local voters.
Glasscock used the opportunity
to take a poke at the eagle-lamb
proposal made by Nelson Wolff,
his most formidable opponent in
the race for the Democratic
nomination.
_fiiiMCTCl my.» the proposal,
like many theroetical proposals,
looks great on paper but it has
virtually no practical value.
Golden Eagles, he says, are
migratory birds and very few
nesting in Texas are young
eagles, which have come from
over populated areas in Canada
and the Northern United States,
and trapping and transporting
the birds would be an expensive
lesson in futility.
In regard to Wolff’s state-
ment that ranchers should be
paid compensation for predator
killed livestock. Glasscock said

that, for a man who talks about
reducing bureaucracy JhtL cer-
tainly is advocating an extreme-
ly expensive and inneffective
new program.
Glasscock, who received
national attention when he took
on the Federal Government last
year while he was mayor of
Hondo, says that in order to
make WoffTs plan work every
dead lamb would require, first
to be found, generally in rugged
country, while there are enough
remains for an autopsy. Second,
in order to confirm cause of
death, an autopsy would have to
be performed by a qualified
veterinarian. Third, report*

ment along with a copy of the
death . certificate, and fourth,
payment from U S. tax dollars,
would have to be made. All of
this, he says, for a S25 lamb.
Glasscock says eagles are a
definite problem and like most
problems there is a solution. He
recommends a regulated preda-
tor control program. Ranchers,
he says, are not blood thirsty,
they are trying to naotret an
investment, a large investment,
from lamb and kid tosses
running in some areas as high
as 20 percent. Ranchers, he
says, expect some losses but
cannggt tolerate losses of this
magnitude. Ranchers of Tesas
do not need or want the
extinction of Golden Eagles, all
they want is a regulated control
program to keep their losses at a
tolerable level. he atgds
tolerable level, he adds.
"In my opinion." Glasscock
says, "this could be done most
effectively through a State
agenev. such as the excellent
Texas Parks and Wildlife
Department because of their
training, wide availability and
personal knowledge of the areas
involved. This would involve
acquiring permission from the
Department of Interior and
amending the federal law pro-
tecting Golden-Eagles. As your
local Congressman I would
vigorously pursue these chang-
es. Local problems can best be
dealt with at the local level."
Glasscock began fanning and
ranching on a full time basis
with his wife. Judith. 17 years
ago in D'Hanis. He also owns a
small construction business and
a lumber ‘yard and hardware
store. He has three children
and the family lives in Hondo
The candidate feels the 21st
District needs a fiscally conser-
vative Congressman who be-
lieves in the dignity of work. He
wants to challenge the powerful
beaucraciep when their theories
and programs are ineffective
and he wanted to gain the
respect and cooperation of his
colleagues through his intelli-
gent approach to problem solv-
ing. He says the district needs a
man who has experience in the
problems facing ranching, farm-
ing* and business communities
of the District.
