Constitutionol Amendment Needed
Now that Secretary of State Apptln. "f,"",?f "t J1
has been declared constitutional, tho only fair thing left to do
t to amen the state constitution. It I a certainty that EMttrn
Oregon irtaki,.R a severe and unfair blow under thta plan, which
will cut Its representation in the legislature.
Population alone Is the basis for representation a. th. con
stltution now stands. ThU should not be. Area should figure In
the matter. .
Eastern Oregon should steadfastly unite In a move to .work
toward amending the constitution. This can be d J
Stive petition, but the same problem cxl.sts-lnsufflclent
population In Eastern Oregon to .wing the needed vote.
It might be possible to sell the rest of the state on an equitable
plan.Tof certainly upon the welfare of Eaern Oregon re8t8 .

Giles French of the Sherman County Journal Moro has been

However an "economic secession" might be more feasible

Now what if we turned in another direction-say to Eastern

there "ne populous western Oregon counties would surely feel

"seceded economically" and went to Washington, but if the
thousands of businesses and industries all over Eastern Oregon
did the same thing, it would be felt.
This is not to propose such "economic secession," but when
salesmen come through and when every Eastern Oregon business
UadeT witHhe western part of the state, we should Impress
them with this problem and ask for support for adequate rep
resentation. It is lair and right, because what is for our welfare
is also tor their welfare.
Several plans have been proposed for a more equitable plan
of representation. One of the foremost Is the federal plan, which
would have one legislative house based on population, and the
other with each county represented, regardless of population.
Thus Morrow would have at least one senator or representative
of its own In the one house, as well as sharing at least one with,
neighboring counties in the house based on population.
Editor French points out that daily press has referred to the
federal plan as "radical." He wisely points out that it has not
been considered radical on the national level as it has been
used to contribute to the development of our country.
As a matter of fact, we can see little justifclation for the
expense, trouble and confusion of a bicameral legislature (two
houses) at ull if our representation is based solely on population.
A unicameral system isuch as in Nebraska) would seem much
less costly, less cumbersome and certainly more efficient
Our Moro neighbor says, "Any plan must be voted on by the
people. Any plan will have opposition. Any plan that wins must
be easily explainable."
He's right on all counts. Let's get together on an equitable
plan, gather our funds and resources for the job, and work to
wards a constitutional amendment that embraces the chosen
plan. In the meantime, let us not lose any opportunity to point
out to our western Oregon friends why it is only democratic and
to their best Interests for us to have adequate representation.

WHEN YOU see all the honors
Morrow county youtns are

in the Soil Conservation Speech
