Lots morel Jerry's g BarberShop I I ?: County Judge Paul Jones said yesterday that he has "no idea of resigning as Judge of Morrow County to accept the appointment to the Land Conservation and Develop ment Commission." Jones told the Gazette Times that the attorney gen era) had ruled that to hold the county judge position while serving on the LCDC would be "incompatible." Jones, in a prepared state ment to the news media, aaid: "I do not feel that I would be a qualified member of the LCDC until my appointment is confirmed by the Senate Committee. SBtOO expressly makes the governor's ap pointments to the commission subject to confirmation by the Senate. The Senate Com mittee met on Dec. 1 and confirmed 5 of the 7 appoin tees. The decision whether to confirm my appointment was postponed, and I have not been advised when the Senate Committee will be considering it further. HEARING SLATED ON LIVESTOCK LAWS Hearings on the proposed change of ownership and the law connected with brand inspection of livestock will be held next month at the State Department of Agriculture building in Salem. Morrow County livestock growers who would like to attend the hearings or who have opinions on the new proposal should contact Ed Brosnan, president of the Morrow County Livestock Growers; Mike Howell, Mor row County extension agent; or Gene Kunkle, state brand inspector in Salem.

IPJMJMMHISKlSMaBfta "Until such lime aa I am qualified by (he confirmation of the Senate Committee I do not Intend to participate in LCDC matters, as that would not be appropriate. "1 am considering tome related legal and practical problems. From (he time that my appointment was first announced by the Governor, there has been a constant furor. If it appears that this appointment it going to be deleterious to the fulfill ment of my obligations to the people of Morrow County, then I shall have to reconsider my willingness to accept It. At some point the controversy which has been generated by my appointment muat cease. Thli is necessary so thai the LCDC may be organized and get on with its duties, and so that l ean devote my full attention and energies to my own duties." 1 i. "Morrow County is growing and will continue to grow," Jones told the Gazette-Times. "With proposed nuclear plants, advanced farming and Industry; and after working at my present job as Juvenile Judge lor the past three yean, I feel that my time already spent would have been wasted if I resigned as county Judge to become member of LCDC."
