Keeney Home
Is Scene of
Tea Monday
Almost 90 women attended a
tea given Monday afternoon at
the home of Mrs. R. J. Keeney,
Colver road, by Jackson County
Republican Women. Mrs. Wayne
Stine was chairman and pouring
were Mrs. Myron Root and Mrs.
Frank Bash.
An informal program was
given by Mrs. E. A. Littrell and
Mrs. Philip Lowry who served
as secretaries for tlteir husbands
during the session of the legis
lature which closed recently. Mr.
Littrell was a member of the
House of Representatives, and
Mr. Lowry is a State Senator.
Taking turns speaking the
two women described the manner
in which bills are introduced,
processed and either passed or
fail, of the work of tfie commit
tees, committee hearings and
other legislative procedures.
Mrs. Littrell commented on
the fact that Jackson county resi
dents seemed to write more let
ters to their representatives than
did other constituents, and told
of the heavy work load of some
of the committees. Twenty-five
per cent of all the bills intro
duced in the House went through
the various committees on which
Mr. Littrell served, she said.
Mrs. Lowry said there is much
talk of the necessity of having
an annual assembly, and that an
interim committeewill study the
problem. She said that in spite
of the length of the 1955 session,
there was not enough time for
the legislators to do all the work
which "piled up" since" the last
session.
She expressed her "great dis
appointment" that the sales tax
bill did not "at least get to the
people." She charged that Demo
crats in the Senate "played poli
tics" to a much greater extent
than did Republicans. Mrs.
Lowry further said that secre
taries some times have a better
perspective of the entire jrocess
than do the legislators them
selves.
Both Mrs. Littrell and Mrs
Lowry spoke of the lobbyists,
pointing out that many of them
perform valuable services for the
legislators and that the session
"could not get along without the
Third House," as the lobbyists
are called.
The two women were intro
duced by Mrs. Lester Adams.
A committee assisted Mrs.
Stine and Mrs. Keeney. The
Keeney home was decorated with
spring flowers, and an arrange
ment of. blue iris centered The
tea table.
