Senator Cites Good Points Of New District Phil Mahoney and OrvUle Cutsforth responded with com ments and questions In re sponse to the opening given bv Senator Kenneth Jernstedt following his talk at the Ilepp-ner-M)rro County Chamber of Commerce nnetlng Mon day. Senator Jernstedt especial ly asked for comments on the Oregon Liquor Control Com m'ssion and any suggestion for changes in the program that would be beneficial. Hear ings are no being held over the state. Phil Mahoney said that Ore gon is always needing money and felt the proper method is as It is now. Orvllle Cuts lorth s.; id he agreed with Pail and went on to mention two problems that he thought were Important to Morrow County; the receding water table and high pro(en tax. He suggest ed a study be made on re charging tiie water table. He sited wells dropping 10 feet and artesian wells going dry. Jernstedt Senator Jernstedt handed bouquets to John Burns who he said did an outstanding job as president of the senate and to Cla Myers on his re apirtionment of the state. The state is to be reap portioned every 10 years. When the legislature failed to reapportion it was up to the Secretary of State. He mist mike the districts have about 69,700 people. The problem Is to include this many peo ple and yet keep good com munity interests. Senator Jernstedt feels he has done a good job. His District No. 28 includes the two house dis tricts of No. 50 and No. 53. It runs from Irrlgon to San dy and Estacada. He was pleasantly surprised recently while visiting in the Sandy area that people there were responding favorably to the new district. They felt the rural part of Clackamas coun ty had more in common with the eastern part of Oregon than with the municipal areas of Oregon City. Legislators must live in the district from which they are running. New this year, seven seats are not control led by a metropolitan area. Mr. Jernstedt listed the committees he has served: Ag riculture, Local, State and Fed eral, Alcohol and Drugs and chairman of the Law and Pro cedures which lias made a complete revision of the State SSth Year THE Price 10 Cents GAZE Jv-:-: HEPPNER . v .
