Geary Advises
Chairmen on How
To Speed Session
Salem U.Rj -Speaker of the
House Edward A. Geary held an
unprecedented parley with his
committee chairmen yesterday
afternoon and gave them some
advice 'on ' how to expedite the
session. " : l y ;,
He :. expressed concern over
the fact . that only 90 bills had
been introduced in. the House as
against 137 on the same date
two ' years ago. Then , he said:'
: 'it's not because I want more
bills,, but because I know there
are many, bills that will be in
troduced and I don't want them
to come in a big pile."
Requests Filed '
Rep. W. W. : Chadwick of
Salem : said more than 700 re
quests for drafting bills had al
ready been, filed .with the legis
lative counsel, and , Geary said
he would confer with Sam
Haley the legislative counsel,
to ascertain , the situation in that
office and report back to the
house.
Geary also said he wanted as
few executive sessions as. possi
ble. Those are the : ones where
the public is -invited- to leave
while members. deliberate. He
said:
"You will find that you will
receive far less criticism if you
have open meetings and give
the people- an opportunity to
hear what is. going-on-."
Mann Sees Tim Saver, .. .. .,
, The speakes urged committee
chairman not to bring to the
floor bills that the committee
members knew had no chance of
passage. : ' s
Rep. E. H. Mann of Medford
suggested that much legislative
time could - be saved jf commit
tees of both Houses sat in on im
portant hearings. -
; Rep. Loran. L. Stewart of Cot
tage Grove, chairman of f the
House 'Taxation Committee, said
the Senate and House tax com
mittees planned "many joint
hearings on important bills. V
Use" of : members of the '. Ore
gon Bar Committee in conduct
ing research work on bills re
quested by legislators 'was sug
gested by: Rep.. George Layman:
of Newberg, , chairman." of the
House' Judiciary . Committee.
This group of attorneys who do
natetheir tune. to assist: the leg
islators, Layman' said, were not
busynow and, would bej glad' to
