CHILDREN ALWAYS WELCOME Partisan Politics Enters Atmosphere At State Capitol By EVELYN NYE Representative from Jackson County It was probably too much to hope that the atmosphere of sweetness and light which prevailed dur ing the first week or so of a me session' 2 , w o u i a pre v a i 1. How ever, the snip- i ine at the by the leaders Eve Nye oi tne Democratic-controlled Senate and House, can only be explained as pure partisan politics, the kind that makes most citizens shy away from service to their government. Governor Hatfield is now being accused of making "beautiful promises" which he has failed to keep, and of recommending a budget high er than that of his predeces sor. Neither of these state ments, of course, is true. Certainly the Hatfield op erating budget is $2V4 million higher than the Holmes budg et. Of this S1.7 million is for the Centennial, which will un doubtedly , be returned, but nevertheless be included in the current budget if we are to have a Centennial. Other Items Omitted Other items omitted in the Holmes budget include social security and ' unemployment payments for state employees. The Hatfield total general fund budget of approximately S313 million includes S14.6 million for buildings, where as the Holmes budget includ ed only2.5 million, with rec ommendation for a $40 mil lion dollar bonding program. Again, Governor Hatfield never promised to reduce taxes. He said repeatedly that we must reduce the cost of government and that we must live within our income. He did not recommend reducted in state services. That is for the people of Oregon to do. He feels that people do . not resent paying taxes if they know they are getting full value for their tax dollar and that the load is shared by everyone on an equitable basis. Dr. Sly, in his report, said that while he believes that Oregon will eventually have to enact a sales tax, he thinks we can get by for the time being without it, and that is what Governor Hatfield's tax program, is attempting to do. Controversial Bills The more controversial bills are beginning to come to the floor of the House and so the sessions are getting longer. Committee work is increasing because hearings are held on the more important bills. Incidentally, these hearings are better attended than in any ' other session, which CLUB NEWS Griffin Creek Cooking Club The meeting was called to order by our president, Karen Hugdahl.

I attended the hearing before the Joint High way committees held Wednes day night on House Bills 30 and 72; which would put log trucks under PUC regula tions. The big hearing room was packed with several hun dred loggers. They - looked like part of a Centennial pageant with their plaid shirts and many bewhiskered faces. In the Local Government committee, a su bcommittee of which I am chairman is attempting to draft legislation to implement the County Home Rule amendment ap proved by the voters at the election last November. Our hope is to produce a bill that will make the adoption of a county charter as simple as possible, while at the same time safeguard democratic processes.
