Plan Segregaies Critical Patients Chicaeo ru.R) Three Prov idence, R.I., physicians, writing in the Journal of the American Medical association, outlined a plan lor segregating in one area of a hospital, surgical patients in critical condition. The plan was revealed by Drs. J. Murray Bcardsley, J. Robert Bowen and Carmine J. Capalbo who have been using it in Rhode Island hospital in Prov idence as a solution to the short aee of graduate nurses and to channel expert attention to pa tients with the most need for it. The doctors said the plan en ables the use of more nurses' aides and practical nurses in other areas of the hospital to relieve the pressure on graduate nurses. The plan also eases the de mand for private nursing for individual patients, yet it still provides specialized care for the critically ill. The Providence special care unit embraces two adjacent wings containing 28 beds. Most of the patients in them are readily visible through glass partitions from the nursing sta tion in the center of each wing, and each bed is equipped with all necessary emergency equip ment including an oxygen unit. In addition, the unit provides private rooVis for patients who might disturb their fellows. There are also sleeping quar ters for a full-time resident physician nearby, a minor sur gery room and all necessary em ergency gear. 51st Year Medford United Press Full Leased Wire Price 10c Tribune United Press Full Leased Wir Second Section MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1957 Pages 1-6 Path of Bills in Oregon Legislature Salem (U.R) Red-faced edi tors of Oregon's pfficial Blue Book are at a loss to explain how Republican Rep. Sam Wil derman of Portland came to be listed in the book's legislative di rectory as a Democrat. Wilder man claimed to be mortified but resigned to his fate. He doubted that he would sue. Br DICK HUMPHREY United frets Correspondent Salem (U.R) When the Ore gon Legislature meets here Mon day its primary function will be to consider and enact laws. This will be done by members of either House introducing bills which will have the force of statutory law when they clear all hurdles from rough plans to the governor's desk. There are several hurdles. It all starts with an idea. The idea can come from anyone or anywhere, but it can only be introduced by a legislator. Say Rep. Sockum of Stubble, Ore., wants to prohibit yellow bellied sapsuckers from sticking say in Oregon forests. What must he do? First he must prepare a bill in proper form for introduction. He can do this himself, get inter ested persons or organizations to do it. get help from the Ore gon State Bar legislative service, or he can call on the two agen cies which have the legal duty to draft bills the legislative council and the attorney gen eral. Long Process After that technical matter has been accomplished, Rep. Sockum submits his bill in several typed copies to the House Rules and Regulations committee where it is checked for form and style. It is then filed with the chief clerk of the House for intro duction and copies sent to the state printer for printing. A bill is introduced simply by reading its title for the in formation of members. On another day it is given a second reading by title and, if there are no objections, it is then referred to a standing commit tee by the speaker of the House. The standing committee which deals with sapsuckers and like creatures may hold meetings or hearings with wildlife experts. ornithologists, foresters, bird lovers or anyone else interested The committee may then table the bill, report it out or hold it and report a substitute bill By a two-thirds vote, the House can require a bill to be reported. Cycle Repealed The report on the bill may be unanimously favorable, unani mously favorable with amend ment, unanimously adverse, ma iority and minority report, or without recommendation. The House then votes on the committee report. If a unani mously adverse" report is adopt ed, it usually has the effect of postponing the bill indefinitely. If amendments are involved, the bill is sent to a committee for "engrossing" that is. inserting amendments in their proper place. If committee reports are fav orable or without recommenda tion, the bill automatically comes up for third reading, sec tion by section. Then the House may debate it, decide to reject or pass it, refer it to a commit tee for some special purpose or make it a special order of busi ness at a later date.

Either House may author any bills but ap propriation bills which must or iginate in the House. Conferences Are Help When either House won't ac cept amendments to a bill by the other, the presiding officers appoint a conference commit tee to try to iron out the dif ferences. If several conference committees fail to reach agree ment, the bill dies. However, if both Houses pass the bill with the same wording, the bill is "enrolled" that is, prepared in final form for print ing. It is then sent to the gov ernor over the signatures of both presiding officers and the chief clerk of the House of origin. If the governor approves and signs the bill it becomes law the 91st day after the session ends, at a time prescribed by the bill or immediately if it contains the emergency clause. If the governor vetoes the bill he returns it with a message to the House of origin, a two-thirds vote of both Houses is then re quired to pass it. During the session the gover nor must sign or veto a bill within five days or it becomes law without his signature. If the session ends during the five day period on some bill, the governor has 20 days from ad journment to sign or veto the bill or the bill becomes law. Th Legislature may refer its acts for a vote of the people or the people (five per cent of the legal voters) may petition for referral within 90 days after adjournment. The governor may not veto a referred bill. It is voted on at the next regular biennial elec tion, unless a special election is ordered by the Legislature. You can see that this complex system, while adfnirable, is the hard way to get at sapsuckers. That's why most bills introduced in the Oregon Legislature are the thoughtful work of genuinely public-minded men. Portland (U.R) Dr. A. A. Knowlton, nationally - known professor of physics at Reed col lege here for 33 years, died Wednesday. Three Planes Collide In Air Oyer Panama - Panama City, Fla. (U.R) Officials at nearby Tyndall Air Force Base said yesterday a B29 bomber and two T33 jet train ers collided near Tyndall Field. Witnesses said the crash oc curred about a quarter of a mile from the base, which is 10 miles southeast of Panama City. Tyndall is a Strategic Air Command base. B29s are used to tow targets in training. Base officials refused at first to confirm or deny the crash, then said that "so-called eyewit ness reports of the incident were inaccurate." The public information office at the base said it was "compil ing information" to be released later. From 1920 to 1935 about 700, 000 miles of rural highways in the U.S. were treated by some form of surfacing. m MUTUAL, Inc. Notice of rJ5H Coniecurie OivroW.
