State Legislature Passes
11 Bills in First Six Weeks
'f'&'jfViit' PSALMS 41:1 Blessed is he that considereth the poor; the Lord will
deliver him in time of trouble,
Salem, Oregon, Saturday, February 23, 1957
By PAUL W. HARVEY, JR.
Associated Preis Writer
After six weeks of work, Ore
gon's legislature has passed only
11 of the 939 bills that have been
Introduced.
Only two of them have been
signed Into law.
Committees are hard at work
on the many controversial issues,
which will begin going to the
house and senate in the next few
days. '.
House Passes 69
So far, the house has passed 69
of its 584 bills and the senate,
making even slower progress, has
passed only 30 of its 354 bills.
Taxes and education the two
main problems will share the
spotlight next week.
The senate will vote Tuesday
morning on a bill to reserve the
property tax field to local gov
ernments. This measure, which
would make it impossible for the
state to levy a property tax, is ex
pected to be sent to the house
quickly.
There has been no action yet
on the main tax program because
the ways and means committee
doesn't knov how much money
will be needed to run the state
government for the next two
years. This decision probably is
at least two weeks away.
There will be a second hearing
Thursday night on the bill to in
crease the basic school aid ap
propriation 50 per cent. This hear
ing will be held by a ways- and
means committee. The house ed
ucation committee, after holding
the first one, recommended pas
sage of the bill.

CARRIER OF THE WEEK
Michael McKinnon Known by
Salem Ball Fans; Collects Coins
This Saturday's Capital Jour
nal "Carrier of the Week" start
ed his life off with a bang and
has kept up the pace ever since.
Michael McKinnon, 13, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Howard E. Hicks,
1307 Fairmount Ave., was born
on the Fourth of July. This is
somewhat distinguishing in itself
'but Mike has accomplished many
other things too.
He is now in thr eighth grade
at St. Joseph school. Mike has
been a Capital Journal carrier for
the past seven months. He deliv
ers in the Lincoln to Superior and
Commercial to River streets area
Mike has several hobbies. He
has been playing the piano for
eight years. He started a coin col
lection three years ago and has
already accumulated a wide as
sortment of coins. His pride and
joy are three gold pieces which
he obtained a short time ago.
Young McKinnon is much bet
ter known in the Salem area for
another of his endeavors, how
ever. For the past three sum
mers he has worked as batboy for
the Salem Senators baseball team.
As for the future, Mike thinks
he would like to be either a

question Is needed before the tax
program can be drafted.
The house will vote Wednesday
on the bill to persuade school dis
tricts to reorganize and thus elim
inate many of the smaller dis
tricts. The house-passed bills to create
a state conciliation service to
mediate labor disputes and to
repeal the 1953 anti-picketing law
will be given a hearing Thursday
night by the senate labor and in
dustries committee.
Here is the way other major
legislation is shaping up:
LABOR The senate labor and
industries committee plans hear
ings early in March on labor's bills
to Increase unemployment com
pensation benefits. The house la
bor and industries committee
hasn't done anything yet on the
measures to boost industrial acci
dent payments.
HIGHWAYS The house-passed
bill to issue 6 million dollars worth
of highway construction bonds
hasn't received senate considera
tion. The bill for a $12,600,000 bond
issue to modernize the southern
end of the Oregon coast highway
has been introduced, but nothing
has been done about it. The mea
sure to start planning of the high
way bridge over the Columbia
river at Astoria has been approved
by the house highway committee,
and it now is in the ways and
means committee.
REORGANIZATION Measures
to create the office of lieutenant
governor, add a member to each
house, and to abolish the liquor,
fair and unemployment compensa
tion commisisons, as well as the
board of control, haven't been
considered by committees yet.
POWER The senate state and
federal affairs committee plans to
act next week on the house
approved bill asking congress to
build a high dam in Hells Canyon.
DEVELOPMENT Gov. Holmes'
bill to create a state development
department seems headed for ap
p r o v a 1, although Republicans
doubt if it will accomplish its pur
pose of bringing new industry to
thi? stdtc
WELFARE There has been
nothing done on legislation to re
peal the relative responsibility
law, or to reduce the payments
under it.
ELECTIONS The many election
reform bills haven't been con
sidered yet by committee.

As you gaze at this scene of snow, ice, and leafless trees,
your mind may skip ahead and picture green grass, abun
dant foliage, and a rippling stream. The very thought brings
happiness. Spring makes the difference.
As grass, trees, and streams are fettered by winter, so some lives
are bound by doubt, unbelief, lack of faith, and false ideas. When
they come in contact with the Church, the love of God sets
them free.' They see new beauty in everything about them, and
others see new beauty in their lives. As spring brings all
nature to new life, so God's love makes human beings
happier, gives them life more abundant.
No matter how strong the fetters which bind you,
freedom can be yours through the Church and the
message it brings to all. . Why not accept
that freedom today?
