14 - SANOV (O rt.) POST Thur».. Feb. 8, 1975 (Sec. 1) SALEM StCNE----- Reedsport optometrist Jason Boe is relatively comfortable in the 58th Oregon Legislature's catbird seat Seated behind the traditional octagonal table-desk, a con ventional television behind him and a digital clock over his rig h t shoulder rem inding visitors of the passage of time, D r. Boe exudes both confidence and cavendish pipe tobacco smoke as he accepts or gives counsel to those with stakes in this y e a r's biennial deliberations. This le a g is la tu re ’s Senate P re s id e n t’s com fort and confidence is well founded. Sen. Boe is only the second member of the Upper Chamber to succeed himself as leader in regular sessions since Joseph Simon ruled the Senate during its 15th-l6th and 18th-19th sessions in the 1880s and 90s. No other Oregon senator a c complished the feat until Boe's longtime friend and ally, E . D. (Debbs) Potts achieved the presidency diring the 54th and 55th sessions in 1967-69. O f fu rth e r significance regarding Sen. Boe's con fidence quotient is the not forgotten fact Sen. Potts ruled a coalition Senate And Sen. Boe now has twice been elected president by clear-cut majority Democrats. There are other factors. The second-term Senate leader has retained the bulk of his ex perienced staff intact. And friendly, system-wise Debbs Potts heads Boe's combined Rules and State and Federal Affairs committee—the latter often referred to as any Senate President's boneyard for un wanted legislation and the fo rm e r which tra d itio n a lly m akes a ll-im p o r ta n t procedural decisions in any session's waning days. Add to these ingredients the overw helm ing m a jo rity his party enjoys in the Senate (22-7- 1), a s im ila rly sig n ifican t majority in the House (38-22), a D em ocrat governor sharing much of Boe's personal philosophical persuasion and a form er House compatriot and fellow member of Joint Ways and Means as Speaker of the Lower Chamber, Rep. Phil Lang. With all this going for you, how could anyone help but find a measure of pleasure in the position that likely w ill in tc th e NEW LY ELEC TED councilman Brother Barnabas was »worn into office Monday night at a meeting of the Sandy City Council. Brother Barnaba» will terve in Vern Richards' chair while he replaces Judge George Howelier as District Court Judge.

The fo rm e r Gresham resident, currently an inmate of the Oregon State Peniten tiary Psychiatric Ward, ap peared at a preliminary parole hearing before the Oregon Board of Parole last week. By law, the board must hold a preliminary hearing within six months of sentencing. A spokesman said Hocking’» prison record would be reviewed every two years and his psychiatric record every six years, but that “January 2000 is the date” the board w ill ac tually look at him with parole in mind.

M ark Hatfield's Senate seat might be tempting. Boe already has served on the Reedsport city council, th ree term s as a state representative, Is serving his third session as a state senator and surely doesn't aspire to anything less than a position on the Potomac. He has an abiding belief state legislatures are the glue that can bind the nation And he's proud of the part he has played in restoring health and vigor to the Oregon Assembly. And, of course, he likes the catbird seat. But it doesn't take much conversation to realise the Senate President would like to make an even higher mark after the final rap of his present gavel. push everything out of his chamber by the session's 75th or MOth day Anything that takes longer will have to have a darned good reason The Senate President would like to return to Reedsport sometime between the middle of May and the first of June. What happens for Jason Boe when the 58th L egislature adjourns is up for speculation, however Eyeglasses aren't the only things he’s considering. This session's Senate President Joined five other holdover members of the Upper Chamber who didn't face re- election chores last year by virtue of their four-year tenure to seek higher office. Boe ran a d eterm in ed, if unsuccessful prim ary race against the late W ayne M orse, for the D em o cratic nom ination for U.S. Senator. Upon Morse's death, he became an avowed candidate for appointment to the candidacy, even tu ally conferred upon distaff fellow State Senator Betty Roberts. There aren’t a lot of options in thia area awaiting the Senate President two years hence. Fellow Democrats hold all four Oregon seats in the U S . House He is strongly supporting Gov. Bob Straub's economic recovery p ro g ram . W ith a Senator's reluctance to legislate in haste lest he re pents in leisure, Pres. Boe has teamed with Speaker Lang to chop up Gov. Straub's omnibus recovery package and both chambers w ill carefully con sider each component in dividually. Sen. Boe makes no attempt to disguise his pleasure that his Legislature has before it so many proposals designed to improve the state’s economic health and security. And he's equally pleased so much of it is proposed by a Governor of Straub's political persuasion. So economic recovery might be the handle fo r thia le g is la tiv e session and something else to hang onto as far as the Senate President is concerned is a businesslike session, noted for its harmony, efficiency and dispatch. This session's first three days saw introduction of more measures than were proposed in last session's Initial three weeks. Senate co m m ittee chairmen have adopted a Boe mandated pace deaigned to fluence this assembly’s final decisions from wherever they stem. It often has been said the Governor proposes and the Legislature disposes From a practical standpoint, the 30- m em ber Oregon Senate probably disposes of m ore issues by itself than the Legislature as a whole, in c lu d in g p r o p o s itio n s originating in the House Senate Pesident is no longer first in order of ascendancy when the Governor's chair is vacated. Nor is he acting Governor any longer when the elected Chief Executive is out of state. But considering the foregoing, the power and in fluence of the present Senate President has not been watered down to an extent any damp ness is visible today. Sen. Boe doesn’t hesitate to u tilise his power on re c a lc itra n ts , regardless of party. This doesn't necessarily win popularity But it probably promotes efficiency. And he's wielding plenty of his new influence to achieve what he believes will be an efficient session. tor aresternshopeio A LB E R S ¿ T R IA N G L E -P E E K , ft > r c / f s e v e n s • C H IC K E N $ R A B B IT S s o w ,,,, a n d r a te /+ s ZIM'S F eed store : 2 2 3 rd 4UI grown welch and Star*.
