Legislators Now Using
Soothing Tranquillizers
By FRANCES LITTRELL
Salem The rest of the State
may not have had mail delivery
last Saturday, but our desk
sported its usual stock of mail,
as both the House and the Sen
ate have their own mail carriers
to and from the Salem post
office. In the past two weeks, every
one but the House tax commit
tee seems to have come out with
a tax program. So far, Speaker
Pat Dooley's is the only one to
receive the Governors blessing.
Representative Barton told me
this morning that his tax pro
gram will be read for the first
time Thursday morning.
Wednesday morning, the
Little Chamber orchestra of 16
girls playing string instruments
gave a half hour concert in the
House of Representatives. The
girls are unique in the fact that
they are the only orchestra in
the world to play completely
from memory.
Also on Wednesday, Represen
tative Cook became a father for
the first time and in the late
. afternoon, we had our longest
call of the house. It lasted 90
minutes, and they never did
find one member, so we were
recessed until 10 a.m. the next
day. The call of the House is
often necessary to have a quo
rum present and due to the fact
that the committees still have
many bills to consider, one or
tw committees are always ex
cused; however, they are subject
to a call of the House. Often
members slip out to avoid voting
on a bill and too, some slip out
for personal or business appoint
ments.
Tranquillizers Used
Early in the session, because
many legislators and their sec
retaries were down with colds,
Dr. Purvine ordered the large
center doors of the House closed
and to remain closed for the
rest of the session because they
create , quite a draft. This, of
course, makes the traffic doubly
heavy on the two side doors. Mr.
Middaugh, who is the front door
man on the left side of the
House, told me he opened that
door 1400 times in one day last
week, and Mr. Schrenk in the
Senate lounge reported that on
Friday of last week, he had
served the 10,000th cup of cof
fee; In jest, I said to Dr. Purvine
"how many tranquillizers have
you: passed out this session?"
His answer was "Plenty, and if
I could tell you, it would amaze
you." Seems everyone we talk
to is taking them these days
especially here in Salem. Of
course, at this point, we are so
involved with our daily tasks
and the problems at hand, that
We forget that there is an out
side world other than that
which revolves around the State
House. Some days I even forget
to look up at the balconies; how
ever when I do, they are always
full.
Today the ways and means
committee recommended the
passage of a board of higher
education budget very close to
that of ex-Governor Smith's.
When House Bill 650 (a bill
to remove public officials urom
office when they are under in
dictment) was read in the Sen
ate for the second time, Mr.
Overhulse assigned it to the
Mulnomah delegation. When
asked why a delegation, instead
oi a committee, his reply was
"Well, it's their mess isn't it?"
The House has had several
afternoon sessions this week and
as many as 19 bills on the daily
calendar which means an hour
or so of amendments for we sec
retaries. Thanks for your nice letters
and encouragement on my Sa
lem chit chat.
