urday. Mra. Charles O. Ford,
Eugene, state legislative chair
man, reported to the board on
specific bills of interest to the
League which have been in
troduced In the 1957 session of
the legislature.
The league is again strongly
s u p p o r ting reorganization of
school districts and an increase
in the basis school fund. Accord
ing to Mrs. Ford, "The member
ship of the league has been in
agreement since 1950 that our
primary problems exist in the
areas of school district re-organization
and school finance and
that the two problems are close
ly .inter-related. We strongly
supported reorganization of
school districts in the 1951 and
1953 sessions of the legislature
and we are this year support
ing house bill 163. This bill
would not change all school dis
trict boundries by any means
but would set up a means by
which all school boundries
would be examined in the hope
that more effective, efficient and
economical districts would re
sult."
Other measures the league will
support include a constitutional
amendment allowing counties to
adopt "Home Rule" charters and
an extension of the meat inspec
tion law passed at the 1955 ses
sion. The league will strongly
oppose a constitutional amend
ment providing for the "balanced
plan" of apportionment of the
state legislature.
