Act Valid,
Court Rules
SALEM Wl The Oregon Su
preme Court said Wednesday
that a habitual criminal act
providing for life sentences was
not unconstitutional.
The court ruled against John
Tuel, an Inmate at the state
penitentiary, who was sentenced
to life imprisonment under a
habitual criminal act In effect
in 1020.
In doing so, the court re
versed a decision by Marion
County Circuit Judge George A,
Jones that the act under which
Tuel was sentenced was uncon'
stitutional.
Tuel was sentenced to life Inv
prisonmcnt for burglary after it
had been shown he had three
prior felony convictions.
The constitutional provision
In question was Article I, Sec
tion IS, of the Oregon Bill of
Rights, requiring that Oregon's
sentencing laws have as their
fcbject reformation and not re
taliation. "But they do not require that
reformation be sought at sub
stantial risk to the people of the
state," the high court said.
The court said Tuel had been
thought to bo reformed twice
previously and released from
confinement and "it was found
that such a conclusion was erroneous."
Tuel brought his appeal under
the post-conviction act.
ice in 1061' and claimed the
seizure violated the Universal
Military Training Act.

SALEM 01PD The Senate
voted 18-11 Wednesday to ask
the federal government to keep
out of legislative apportion
ment. Sen. Donald Husband, R-Eu-gene,
said that contrary to re
cent U. S. Supreme Court rul
ings legislative apportionment
in a matter for the states them
selves to decide.
The memorial went to the
House.' where a cooler recep
tion was likely.
Husband noted Oregon jeaos
the nation in apportioning its
legislature on the "one person.
one vote" principle. He con
ceded that some states nave un
fair apportionment, but said
many others had re-apportioned
in recent years.
Equal Protection
Opponents said the measure
was aimed at weakening the
equal protection provisions of
the 14th Amendment and deny
ing any remedy 'to the voter in
unfairly apportioned states.
Sen. Don Willner, D-Portland,
aaid the memorial was an at
tempt to "overrule 144 years of
constitutional history" in which
the Supreme Court has been
considered the final interpreter
of the nation's laws.
Husband replied it was an ef
fort to reestablish 144 years of
policies against federal inter
ference in states' business.
Sen. Vernon Cook, D-Gresham,
opposed the memorial and said
such a change would leave
states free to discriminate
against certain voters. He said
the memorial s intent also was
against Oregon tradition.
Those voting against the
measure were Sens. Cook, Will
ner, Chapman, Walfred Corbett,
Alice Corbett, Fadeley, Hallockr,
Huston. Monaghan, Naterlin,
and Stadler.
Technical Change
A first step in revamping the
handling of basic school money
was taken Wednesday by the
House.
The change actually is a
ohanoA In terminology, aimed
at making" it easier for the Leg
islature and the public to see
just how much money the state
is hinninl in fnr Dublic schools.
The change has to do only
with the way the money is ap
propriated, not with the dis
tribution formula that de
termines how much goes to each
school district.
Under the old method, the
Legislature for the current
school year appropriated "$120
per census child between the
ages of 4 and 20."
Under the change, the same
total sum would be described as
"$153 per census child between
the ages of 5 and 17."
The clarification is considered
important since the largest part
of the state's revenue goes for
education.
More Realistic
Rep. John Mosser, R-Beaver-ton,
said it is much more real
istic to talk about children ages
5-17.
"We are trying to get a pub
lic understanding of the real
level of support we are provid
ing at the state level," he said.
Rep. Joe Rogers, R-Independ-
ence, objected that the change
would "erode the fund" and be
inconsistent with other parts of
the basic school formula. Rogers
also noted that the figure cited
in the appropriation never

matches the final sums received
by districts on the basis of nu
merous factors taken into ac
count in distribution.
The change was accepted 53
6. The bill now goes to the
House Tax Committee for a de
cision on whether tax offset fea
tures should be removed. .
Later, it must go to Ways and
Means, the committee that will
decide how much money per
child the state can afford.
Senate President Ben Musa
said Wednesday he would order
Saturday morning sessions as
soon as It became necessary to
keep the calendar from becom
ing jammed. They could start
this Saturday.
Afternoon sessions of the up
per house will be called later in
the session. Musa said, he did
not want to call afternoon ses
sions now because this would
interfere with committee meet
ings and slow the flow of bills.
