GUEST EDITORIAL
(This is from Evangelion, School paper of the studentbody at
Pacific School of Religion. Berkeley. It was written by Grace
Drake. Associate Editor. She writes she will be editor next year.
She still believes as she did when she was director of the Morrow
County Juvenile Department "that voung people should be
included rather than manipulated".
AMAZING -1 believe the interplay of campus pressures, ideas,
and aspirations which became active in the recent CAPSR election
is evidence of more than a spring breeze - it has the strength of a
trade wind and can influence the future of PSR.
To be sure, each student is here to do her-his own thing; to bear
her-his own burden; to search out and prepare for the fulfilment of
her-his own dream. However, the election proved that there is
energy to spare: Energy to be a community; to be surprised out of
apathy; to compliment; to bitch; to plan; to conspire and
counterconspire; to be mad; to be glad; then, at last to rejoice and
celebrate. Yes, we are a community.
SO WHAT?
Well for one thing the student election business exploded into
being an active loyalty, real concern, interest and pride in our
school. Ail of us became aware of chaplains, ministers from the
field, married sh ients, singles, and commuters in a new way. The
power of one abstaining vote affected the whole campus. We
became more sensitively aware of one another.
Then suddenly we were hearing about what was happening in the
hierarchal meeting rooms because students were there, listening,
being listened to, contributing; questioning the building program,
the hiring program, the recruiting program, the academic
program.
I've experienced local church politics, in the raw; school district
politics, in the raw; county government, first hand as an employee;
now, I'm experiencing student politics, later in life. I am
impressed. Students have articulated where, how, and why they
hurt; students have identified, sensitively with others who hurt;
students are saving that forethought can make more difference in
our future than unquestioned gifts. The students care about the
school.
REMEMBER THIS?

With Jack Sumner
A question I am most asked is "when will session be over?" I do
not know as yet but my best guess is at the earliest it will be another
two or three weeks after you read this. The House Committee
action was quite active and interesting last week.
The Transportation Committee introduced several bills to deal
with the pending fuel shortage.
The special Property Tax Relief and School Finance Committee
has tentatively agreed to increase basic school support from 22
percent to 35 percent costing 342 million dollars which will reduce
taxes on all property, put 136 million dollars into home property
and renter tax relief, define farm machinery as business inventory
thus exempting 10 percent per year from ad valorem taxes,
increase corporate and financial institution tax rates, increase
corporate tax withholding and withhold less taxes from wage
earners.
The Judiciary Committee has devoted a great deal of attention to
SB 80, the Criminal Procedure Code drafted by the Criminal Law
Revision Commission. A major effect of the bill would be to abolish
the bail system in all but traffic cases. Defendants would be
released on their own recognizance or with conditional releases.
currently run without opposition. Opponents felt the measure was a
foot in the door toward abdication of the people's right to select the
judiciary.
A measure which would have consolidated Oregon s 36 counties
into eight was defeated by the Senate this week. The measure
would have allowed counties to voluntarily put the issue on the
ballot next year. It would take 65 percent of the voters in each
county to approve the consolidation move before it would take
efThe sponsor of the bill said it would help restore local duties
which have been abdicated to layers of non-elected regional
government associations. Opponents claim it would have reversed
the intent of the statewide land use bill which give the 36 counties
the main duties of planning.
In other legislative business, the Joint Committee on
Professional Responsibility has redrafted a bill on public officials'
conflict of interest. It applies only to state officals and eases the
requirements for disclosing financial interests which could conflict
with officials' duties. The original bill sought to put strict financial
disclosure laws for office holders in the law. The committee has
taken no final action on the bill.
The House approved two mass transit bills and sent them to the
Senate this week. One of them would amend the constitution, which
now restricts the use of gas tax, registration fees and truck taxes to
highway construction and maintenance and state parks, allowing
the revenues to be used for mass transportation purposes. The
other measure would establish a system whereby 8 percent of the
highway fund revenues would be used for mass transportation in
cities, counties and transit districts. This bill would go into effect
only if the voters approve the constitutional amendment.
It was announced this week that at the end of this legislative
session, an interim committee will be formed to conduct a thorough
study of workmen's compensation in Oregon. The committee will
be asked to develop major changes for the next legislative session
to review. The situation is especially serious for fanners who pay
close to the highest rates paid by any industry. In my opinion, no
increases should be made until this study has been presented.
There are still a number of major pieces of legislation which
remain in committee awaiting action. I urge you to write and
express your views on subjects which affect you.
