By EVELYN NYE
State Representative
From Jackson County
Each week it becomes more
difficult to find even the short
time which I devote to this
column. The tempo is increas-
:t$'S lng, as is to be
expected, and
if we are real
ly to wind up
the session in
time the Dem
ocrats have
specified, we
will either be
working eve
nings, Satur
days and Sun
days,- or we'll leave a lot of
bills in committees. Of course,
we are all anxious to get
through in the shortest time
possible, and I'm sure every
legislator will cooperate to the
utmost to bring about a
speedy adjournment.
Tonight the big hearing
room will be packed with peo
ple urging passage of House
Bill 514, increasing basic
school support. I wonder if
anyone opposing it will show
up? Every legislator has been
deluged with mail on this
bill, and I, for one, have been
at a loss as to how to answer.
Of course, the education
committee can send it out of
committee with a "do pass"
recommendation, and there is
no doubt but what we will,
but it will have to go to ways
and means committee because
of the appropriation of $20,
400,000 which it carries. And
there, of course, is the rub,
because at that point we run
into politics.
Urge Greater Support
Many of the people who are
urging' greater state support
for schools would gladly vote
a sales tax if given an oppor-
unity, but the sales tax is
controversial matter in both
parties. Some others are say
ing, "Please vote for more
school aid" in one paragraph,
and "We can't stand any tax
increases" in the next one. A
net receipts, or universal in
come tax, as suggested by Gov
ernor Hatfield, would be a
step in the direction of broad
ening the tax base and in
creasing revenue, but it is
doubtful if a tax program
with Governor Hatfield's
name on it will be passed by
a Democrat-controlled legislature.
Senate President Walter
Pearson is now again propos
ing a sales tax to be voted by
the people in 1960, the pro
ceeds to finance- a new formu
la for state aid to education.
This is the second time Pear
son has come out with this
suggestion, although in be
tween times he changed his
mind and stated categorically
"no new taxes."
Since both Speaker of t h e
House Robert Duncan and
House Taxation Committee
Chairman Clarence Barton op
pose the sales tax, it seems
unlikely that it will go far in
this session. Representative
Fred Meek, Republican, Port
land, attempted to introduce
a sales tax measure but was
prevented by the rules com
mittee. Answer Letters
In answering some of the
many letters I've received on
House Bill 514 I've asked the
writers to let the legislature
know what increase in taxes,
or what new taxes they would
be willing to approve in the
interest of more state support
for education. This may be
what Mail Tribune Managing
Editor Eric Allen is referring
to in his editorial "Who's To
Pay," in the March 20 issue.
By way of clarification let me
point out that it was ex-Governor
Holmes, speaking to the
OEA in convention, who casti
gated them for urging certain
tax measures on the legisla
ture in order to finance salary
increases and other increased
school costs.
He felt that was an improp
er area of activity for them,
and frankly said so. For a leg
islator to inquire from his con
stituents as to their opinion
regarding tax increases seems
to me to be a perfectly legiti
mate and democratic proced
ure. Maybe I am trying on a
shoe which doesn't fit, but it
occurred to me that my let
ters on this subject might have
caused the editorial comment.
And along this same vein,
I feel, as do many other legis
lators on both sides of the
political fence, that Cecil Pos
ey, the executive secretary for
OEA, has seriously diminshed
its already waning influence
on the legislators by his dive
into bitter partisan politics
at . the OEA convention in
Appling Discusses
Good Government
At Kiwanis Club
Principles of the dignity
and sovereignty of the indi
vidual, of free enterprise, of
equal responsibility of man
agement and . labor and of
helping other people to help
themselves were supported by
Howell Appling Jr., Oregon
secretary of state, yesterday
in a talk to Medford Kiwan
ians at Rogue Valley Coun
try club.
Addressing the weekly noon
luncheon of the Kiwanis club,
Appling spoke on "Politics is
Your Business."
The secretary of state de
clared that government is no
more than a reflection of its
people and can be what
people make it. He maintain
ed that it is the fault of the
governed if government fails
Asks Encouragement
Appling asked encourage
ment of all citizens to put
their energies in a positive
way to improve government
and to get people who are
competent and the best quali
fied into office. He said that
government in Oregon has
been "remarkably clean" and
"our problem is one of com
petence." .The secretary of state pro
posed a campaign for better
salaries for legislators as a
means of weeding out incom
petence. Appling deplored the apathy
and indifference in "our gov
ernment of popular choice'
the tendency to consider poli
ticians with disrepute and the
loss of esteem, the abuse and
ingratitude which makes hard
the inducement of able serv
ants.
The public servant serves
ns iust about right and better
than we deserve, Appling de
clared. "It is time for us to
recent and change our ways,
he charged. He termed p.oli-
tics the noblest career a man
can choose. "It is not the
critic who counts. The credit
belongs to the man in the
arena who strives valiantly,"
the secretary said. Appling
spoke of his respect now for
people, of whom he has been
critical, because of his reali
zation that they have been
trying to do something for
better government.
The secretary of state re
ported that he does not be
lieve in deficit spending or in
confiscatory taxes.
Part of the Kiwanis pro
gram yesterday consisted of
stereophonic presentation of
excerpts from Handel's "Mes
siah." The Rev. John Rey
nolds arranged the musical
portion of the program. The
music was from Swem's Gift
shop and equipment from
Verl G. Walker radio with
Ellis Feinstein, chief engineer
at radio station KMED, as
technician.
Portland. He certinly isn't do
ing the cause of education any
good when he becomes so
blindly partisan that he over
looks the fact that the Holmes
budget submitted to this leg
islature the first week of the;
session, made no provision for
increased aid to education, nor;
has any Democrat leader come
forward, so far, with a tax
plan to support the measure,
with the exception of Walter
Pearson, whose plan would
take effect in 1961.
First Hearing
On Thursday, March 26, at
8 a.m. the local government
committee will have its first
hearing on the long-awaited
legislation to implement the
county home rule amendment.
We committee members feel
that the legislation is basic
ally good but probably needs
some amending before it will
be in final shape for passage.
It is our hope that those at
tending the hearing, many of
whom have given this matter
long study, will have sugges
tions which can be incorpor
ated and that we can very"
soon send the measure to the
floor of the House.
Also on Wednesday the ju
diciary committee will hold
a hearing on the State Power
commission bill. This is simi
lar to the measure which fail
ed to get on the ballot last
fall for lack of signatures on
the initiative petition. It
would put all authority for
power development in the
state into the hands of three
men who would make up the
State Power commisison.
At a special meeting of the
House Education committee
Friday afternoon, House Bill
544 which authorized admis
sion of students in private and
parochiaL schools to driver
training programs in public
schools, was tabled. Because
of limited time and the tre
mendous volume of correspon
dence on this bill, I did not
attempt to answer the letters,
feeling sure that it would be
disposed of rather soon and
that I could notify those who
were so concerned about it
through this column. Another
bill to do away with all driver
training classes is ready for
introduction, but the rulei
committee, which controls in
troduction of all bills after
the 25th day of the session
has not approved this one.
