HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES. Salem Scene Many New Laws Benefit State Legislative adjournment, un fortunately, always leaves some public questions unanswered, whether for reasons practical or political. As for laws passed or failed this session, continuing specu lation no doubt will continue to be heard from two sides. Al though casualties often produc ed the biggest headlines, many bills passed by the record length 17 session will emerge in final summation as major victories for the future of Ore gon. Most disappointing to many here were Senate unacceptance of time-consuming proposals to let voters decide on a revised Oregon Constitution and wheth er we want a sales tax to raise property tax relief money. Last week's Senate defeat of single- member subdistricting also was a blow to many who would car rv the "one-man vote" concept down to the level of head-on races for all legislative seats. Many legislators and their constituents wisn the session had resulted in more laws to imDrove hiehwav and motor ve hide safety although they did gam approval of a major dui providing for periodic driver's license re-examination. And, in final weeks, falling state reve nue expectations necessitated cutting many budgets deemed worthy by responsible support ers. .. But look at the successes: Largely because of what is generally regarded to have been outstanding Senate committee leadership, every' major air and water quality bill introduced this session passed both houses. Legislators are satisfied that, in this area of great public con cern, they have met all goals they set for themselves in Jan uary. Because of these bills' pass age. Oregonians can look for ward to cleaner air and water in the near future. Reasons are many: creation of regional air quality districts to deal with problems geographically and qualify for federal aid, re-structuring of the State Sanitary Au thority and giving it more pow er to crack down on water pol luters, planned phase-out of wigwam burners and restric tions on field burning, new for est fire protection laws, giant strides in development of mu nicipal sewage treatment plants, incentives to spur industries to to take immediate cleanup ac tion, etc. Numerous streamlining chang es have come about in election and candidacy laws, as noted in past columns. Improvements are due in many licensing require ments and exemptions, and in several instances of meat, food and beverage products sold for home consumption. Other measures passed late in the session will raise benefits for unemployed Oregonians and create lower unemployment tax rates for employers with good job-providing records, raise the minimum wage to $1.25 per hour for some 10,000 workers not cov ered under federal law, and es- HOSPITAL NEWS Patients who were admitted to Pioneer Memorial hospital during the past week, and are still receiving medical care, are the following: Tom Harris, Heppner; Mabel Davidson, Lex ington; Harold Fleming, Peoria, 111.; Betty Shimanek, Condon; Joyce Cross, Heppner; Eva De Meritt, Kinzua; Phillip Higgins, Heppner, and Rose Merry Nel son.

Oregon is Joining 43 other states for industrial develop ment attraction through passage of a bill allowing port districts to develop land and buildings, without public bidding, and in turn lease or sell facilities to industry. Most observers here agree that, all in all. it has been a profitable if long session re sulting in concrete benefits for nearly all segments of the state's society. Whether the ef forts of those responsible for successes will be appreciated fully is something only the months ahead will tell, but there is a feeling of confidence here in accomplishments expect ed to stand the test of time.

The departing teachers were guests of the other teachers on the Heppner Elementary facul ty. Supt.

The event was informal and there was no program, although Principal Al Martin gave a short talk of farewell and Supt. Pot ter responded with a few words.

Flood Souvenirs Available at Paper Souvenir sheets of the Hepp ner flood, bearing a facsimile of the front page of the Hepp ner Gazette of June 18. 1903, proclaiming, "Days of Sorrow ip Heppner," and six clear pic tures of the flood on the back are available now at the Gazette-Times office at 25c each. These are printed on good quality book paper, approxi mately 12x20 inches. An earlier printing of the souvenirs was sponsored by the Wagon Wheel and were distributed with the compli ments of Mr. and Mrs. Ron Leonnig. Their supply of 1000 was soon exhausted by the de mand. Since then, there have been so many calls for copies that the Gazette-Times has arrang ed to buy the engraving from the Leonnigs and has printed an additional supply. Because of the size of the sheet, it would be difficult to send them by mailing with out folding. However,' if there is sufficient demand for mail orders, the paper may obtain a supply of cardboard mailing tubes and arrange to mail them at additional charge to cover the cost of the mailing.
