Bellamy opposes giving Washington D.C. representation as 'state'

Bill Bellamy
The pace of the 1979
Legislature continues to ac
celerate as controversial leg
islation is passed out of
committee and sent to the full
House for deliberation.
One of the most controver
sial bills that will probably
come before this assembly
would, if approved by the
House, put Oregon on record
as having ratified the constitu
tional amendment which gives
the people of Washington,
D.C, full voting rights.
The bill, SJR 1, escaped

from the House Judiciary
Committee late Wednesday by
a slim 5 to 4 vote. But the
Judiciary Committee sent the
bill to the floor with no
recommendation as to pass
age. My major objection to the
D.C. amendment is that it
would enlarge the size of the
Congress by granting Wash
ington, D.C. two U.S. Senators
and at least one U.S. Repre
sentative. The amendment treats a
city, Washington, D.C, as
though it were a state. Well, in
my opinion, D.C. is not a state,

ber in Congress. What other
city enjoys these privileges?
The states have seven years
to ratify this proposed amend
ment. But a vote in favor of
ratification is irrevocable.
Once a state is on record as
favoring the amendment, no
future legislature can rescind
that vote. It is an important
decision with long term effects
that should not be made
hastily or without full public
debate.
It is possible this amend
ment could have a detrimental
effect in Oregon. Oregon could

Srotvn bagging isn't
just for school kids any
more. Office workers.
blue collar workers, even busi
ness executives have caught on
to the many advantages of pack
ing their own lunches. Brown bag lunches
provide greater flexibility in scheduling lunch
hours; menus can be much more elective;
and, of course, as the U.S. Office of Con
sumer Affairs intimates, there is a sizeable
economy value in bringing lunches from
home instead of paying for res
taurant meals.
Safeway has everything
for the Brown Bagger:
breads, spreads, lunch
eon meats, soups, cakes,
as well as lunch bags,
lunch boxes, thermos
bottles. Get into the brown bagging routine
and strike another blow in the fight against
inflation!

possibly lose a fifth Congres
sional seat which is expected
to be granted after the 1980
Census. I would appreciate
any constituent response to
SJR 1. The Senate passed SJR
1 in February by a vote of 20-9
so the crucial decision now lies
within House jurisdiction.
Other legislative news
during the past week includes
the passage of a lethal drug
injection bill and the contin
ued progress of the gasohol
bills.
HB 2592 introduced by Rep.
Bill Rutherford ( R-McMinn-ville)
provides that persons
sentenced to death in Oregon
would be injected with a lethal
drug rather than be subjected
to the gas chamber. After an
emotionally charged floor de
bate, the bill was approved by
the House 40-14. Supporters of
the bill argued that the
injection method would be
more humane and also it
would save the state $300,000,
the cost of building a gas
chamber. Governor Vic
Atiyeh has said he will sign the
bill if it passes the senate.
The package of Gasohol bills
was recently voted out of
House Environment and
Energy with a "do pass
recommendation." I feel this
is a good package of bills
which will definitely benefit
Eastern Oregon.

tions he'd have known that.
The second most common
disqualifier was failure to
include the $1 application fee
($2 for 2-party applications.)
Third most common mistake
was trying to beat the game by
submitting more than one
application per species. In the
days before the computer,
some hunters tried that and no
doubt got away with it. But it
doesn't work any more and
those who try it get promptly
eliminated from the drawing.
It was not uncommon to find a
salmon-steelhead tag number
in the space which asked for a
hunting license or deer or elk
tag number.
Other causes for failure
were late application, no
license or tag number includ
ed, or other missing informa
tion. The point in reviewing all
these mistakes is simply this.
They could all have been
avoided by taking the time to
read the application instruc
tions. Except for some dates
which have already been set,
seasons for deer and elk won't
be set until May, and applica
tion period for controlled deer
and elk hunts will be held later
in the year. The big game staff
of the Department will make
recommendations for all re
maining 1979 big game hunt
ing seasons at a public
meeting on May 5. Then public
hearings will be held May 25
and 26, with regulations to be
set following public testimony
on the 26th.
These three meetings will
all beheld in Fish and Wildlife
Department headquarters, 506
SW Mill Street in Portland and
will begin at 9 a.m. each day.
Printed regulations for 1979
big game general seasons and
for controlled deer and elk
hunts will be printed in a
separate regulations package
to become available at license
agents about mid-June.
