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
