A wave o f relief swept over the State House late this afternoon as the eleven-day-old Senate dead lock was finally broken. The ten sion had become almost unbear able. As Eastern Oregonians we feel an extra measure of satisfac tion over the fact that Senate Pre sident Overhulse is from our side of the mountains. We came to know' him well last session while he was still in the House and sat at the next desk. One resident of Sherman county must be especial ly proud and happy tonight. Miss Geraldine Overhulse, sister of the new Senate i :evident, is a teach- er in R ufus This morning, while the Senate was still struggling with its prob- lem, I talked with the husband of Jean Lewis. She was at that time still a candidate for the presiden- cy. Mr. Lewis was diplomatically quiet about Senator Lew is’ person- al ideas about her candidacy. He had, however, been having some disturbing thoughts about his own situation should his wife become the first lady President of the Senate. "Somehow,” he said, "I can’t see myself pouring at teas for you ladies.” The members of the House, meanwhile, have managed to get down to business. As of Thursday, January 24, 196 bills have been introduced. The majority of them are Ways and Means bills, but more than thirty are tax bills in troduced at the request of the Interim Tax Study Committee. RUFUS WEATHER CAN JOIN ARTILLERY Word has been received that the P erfection in every service at reasonable cost is still on. Some items are gone, I < others have been added. < ' 1 ’ ’ 1 ' Last Tuesday I was given one of those opportunities that come once in a lifetime. It was my b ir thday and as a special surprise my husband asked the Speaker to mention it from the platform at the end of the morning session. By almost sacred tradition sec taries NEVER say a word on the floor of the House during a ses sion. The Speaker, however, took me unaware when he followed his birthday greeting by asking me how old I am. He undoubtedly did not expect a women to answer such a question, but this particu lar women is not one to let golden opportunities pass her by. For the second time in the history of the Oregon Legislature a secretary dared to address the assembly and lived to tell the tale. This is a legend to save for my grandchild ren. Three of the traditional enter tainments for the members of the legislature and their wives have taken place in the last week. On Monday night we were honor guests at the Man of the Year din ner sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce in Sweet Home. One of our members, Ed Cardwell of Sweet Home, wras selected as sen ior Man of the Year. Wednesday night members of the Oregon Farm Bureau Federa tion were hosts for a most enjoy able evening. Their dinner regu larly features Oregon food pro ducts and was this year built ¿round charcoal-broiled chicken. The thought of broiling enough chicken to feed over three hun dred people is enough to stagger any housewife, but it was beauti fu lly managed. Today the wives and lady Re presentatives were tea guests on Willamette University Campus. Our hostesses were members of Town and Gown, an organization composed of Willamette faculty wives and Salem townswomen. Next week the Senate commit tees w ill be organized and func tioning. New members in the House should be well acquainted with their duties by then. The pace w ill quicken all over the State House and we w ill be busy at last.
