Three Legislators
Report on Session
To C of C Group
The three members of the
Jackson county legislative dele
gation appeared at a breakfast
meeting of the legislative com
mittee of the Jackson County
Chamber of Commerce this
morning, and discussed the re
cent session of the legislature.
The three are State Sen.
Philip B. Lowry, and State Reps.
E. H. Mann and E. A .Littrell.
It was pointed out that just
because the legislature has ad
journed, there is no reason to
slack off interest in civic af
fairs, and Senator Lowry recom
mended that the chamber's com
mittee be kept in being. He
pointed out that there are a
number of interim committees
making studies of possible fu
ture legislation, and that such
"grass roots" groups as this com
mittee could have a real role in
shaping new laws.
The more important interim
groups include those named to
study highways, taxes and elec
tion laws.
Senator Lowry said that pub
lic finance is going to continue
to be one of the state's major
continuing problems, and he
cited what he termed a strong
trend toward increasing state
services, which in turn must be
paid for.
There was a discussion of the
growth of the population in the
Willamette valley, and the ef
fect this may have on legislative
sessions in the future.
Bob Root, vice-chairman of
the committee, presided at the
session.
