November 15. 1956 Local Government To Be Topic of League Speaker Freeman Holmer, director of the Institute of Public Affairs at Willamette university, Salem, will discuss the findings of the Oregon legislative committee on local government, at a League of Women Voters luncheon and. general meeting to be held Sat urday, November 17. at 12:30 in the Rogue Valley Country club. This will give the commu nity an opportunity to acquaint itself with the processes of the legislature in order to provide for country home rule where desired. Since revision of the state con stitution has been the study of the League of Women Voters of Oregon since 1953. League mem bers are preparing for possible call to action during the 1957 Legislature. The current study of constitutional revision is at the county level. The state league committee studying this has posed five questions to be studied and an swered by local Leagues around the state, of which there are 12. Briefly, the five questions asked will be: 1. Do you favor a uniform structure of government for all Oregon counties? 2. Is the enabling legislation for the county manager plan too restrictive? 3. Would you favor a more gradual changing of the tradi tional offices? 4. Would you favor a consti tutional amendment to permit home rule for those counties wishing it? 5. Does your league prefer several optional forms of gov ernment that counties could adopt? These questions and many more related ones will be taken up in the coming session of the Oregon legislature. Anyone in terested in hearing Mr. Holmer discuss these questions, or have questions they would like to ask, is invited to attend. Reser vations are not necessary to hear Mr. Holmer speak. Luncheon reservations can be made by calling Mrs. Homer Marx, 2-6845 or Mrs. Fred Carr, 2-6619.
