Kin caid of Pendleton spent the week-end In John Day and on Monday visited at the Ed Round A Salem Scene SJLl! New Constitution "Closer Than ETr" Oregon's Si-nate and House cvrt.iip.lv are not abandoning traditional concepts of checks and balances, but they appear much closer than in the last two sessions to agreement on a revise State Constitution pro posal lo put before the people. Since voters in 1960 author ized the legislature to propose Constitutional revision, in whole or part, senators and represen tatives have seen different needs and coals. In 1963 and 1965, the Senate held out for moderate, updating changes House members wanted sweep ing reform, and to give the gov ernor more authority to match his responsibility. Solons here, aware of the need to streamline state government as one means of keeping fed eral power out of internal af fairs, now say they are "closer than ever" to compromise on SJR 7. The proposed revision bill which cuts the length of the present Constitution nearly in half, passed the Senate In Feb ruary. It was amended and passed by the House last Fri day. Because of House amend ments and disagreements, SJR 7 now will go to a joint con ference committee before gain ing If then necessary two thirds votes In both chambers and getting on the statewide ballot. This may seem to be a slow process, but giving our state's most significant document a face-lifting Is an awesome re sponsibility. It is complex: Ore gon's 10S year -old Constitution already has experienced 115 amendments, and changes now being considered In SJR must be carefully thought out be cause thev will bear on the lives of all present and future Oregon ians. Here are some major chang es other than rewriting: The more than 100 state boards and commissions would by Cmtrt L Cutter be consolidated Into a maxi mum 20 departments, serving in an advisory capacity. De partment brails would be ap pointed by the governor, where as various agencies now elect their own director. A House Judiciary Commit tee amendment would give the secretary of state the role filled bv lieutenant governor in other states. He would run in tandem with the governor, receive duty assignments from the governor and be first In line for guber natorial succession. Statewide elective office of treasurer w-ould be eliminated. Instead, a comptroller, hired by the legislature, would direct a "tureau of audits" department. House amendments also would make the attorney general and superintendent of public In struction offices appointive ra ther than elective. Legislative sent would be incrcaM-d In each house bv five each according lo the Sen ate version of SJK 7 and by one each according to House amendment. The House version aUo rails for lengthening leg islative terms bv two vrnrs. Hiv ing senators Mx vrars ntid rep resentative four, and for leg islative authority to call so cial sessions. The Senate Kniific ally would prohibit the spending of public money for "direct and immediate" benefit of religious institutloa and would outlaw college teachers from serving in the legislature. Here the House shows conservatism, rec omme n d 1 n g that teachers should be allowed to serve, but not draw teaching pay during sessions. Other nxxliflcfttions which may appear In a final Consti tutional revision proposal would affect Initiative and referendum signature requirements. As ap proved by the Senate, SJR 7, In itiative laws could he demand ed bv 5l per tent of voters registered at the preceding gen eral election; a Constitutional niticmlnif'iit could lie Initiated bv 7' per cent Referendum petitions would require signa tures of four per cent of the lust general election's total reg istered voters. Just when and whether a fi nal, new Constitution will he up for public approval still Is ii nuttier of con lecture here Hut those close to working It out will agree on some points: strong, progrcslsve stain gov ernment Is a means to saving wutliorltv from federalism; we must remove some purely stat utory material and obsoles cence from this basic docu ment; we must streamline some of the costly mechanics of democracy while at the same time preserving citizens' rights. Mi. and Mrs. Russell Jones of MiMliinvillc and Mr. and Mrs. Ismiild Kuhn of Salem were re cent vlslors nt the home of Mr. and Mr. A. G. I'leier, Lexing ton.
