(UF'I Telcplmlo) Capitol Memo Legislators at Mercy of Voters For Pay Increase BY DOUGLAS GHIPP Salem -IUPH- Oregon legisla frirs have put themselvm at the mercy of the voters again on the question of how much they should get paid. They have plenty to lose because the job of writing the tate's laws is making a num ber of them go broke. The only measure on the Friday state primary ballot is the one which would increase their salaries from the present $50 a month to $175 a month, or $2,100 a year. jt Republican State Senator fc 17 Yean lawmaking Experience jf Recognized leader in tax and legal matters -fr Respected by public offi cials and legal profession Pjtd idvt.

Mi 1 , 10 n If The voters have not been merciful in the past. Most measures to raise law maker salaries have been soundly defeated, the last in 11)58 when the vote was 31fi, 4.17 no and 236,000 yes. They asked for $200 a month then. Personal Loss Told It's a fact that Oregon pays its legislators little compared to other satcs. California lays out $6,000 a year, Alaska $3, 000 a year plus $40 a day and Washington $1,200 a year plus $15 a day expenses. Rep. Strafford Itansell (R Athena), a farmer, polled Ore gon members alter the 1050 session and the reply was an average personal loss of thou sands of dollars for last years session. JVot only do the legis lators devote all of their time here during the three months or so of the session but there are numerous duties and ex penses during the rest of the year for many of them. One man, a 1058 state sena tor, went into the red so far he lost his small business, llansell said. Nine other 1050 legislators ate not seeking re election because of personal financial loss. "Pople seem to thing legis lators have large personal for tunes,' he commented. Better Chance Seen It is very unusual to have a measure on the primary bal lot. They normally appear in the November general elec tion, It's no secret that the reason this one is on the pri-1 ninry ballot is because it may stand a better chance of pas sage. "There are always money measures in November," says Hep. Vernon Cook tD-Troul-dale), a lawyer whose ktea it was to submit the question of legislative pay at the pri mary. "The inclination is to say no to most of them." Cook says most people he has talked to favor the raise. The few that don't have a theory that a legislator is a public servant w ho shouldn t expect to be paid much. "Well, we believe that too," he said. "But this raise will merely enable legislators to break even. No one expects to turn a profit." Sen. R. F. Chapman (D-Cous Bay), an insunmceman and In strumental in attempting to get a pay hike for legislators, says he is confident that this one will be accepted. "The cost figures ought to lie eight cents per taxpayer per year. The timing seems right, and it's a reasonable request." Vole For Ralph A.

Straight ir.d in Rscipoi Being a pickle fancier since childhood, we are pleased to remind people that pickles ! have given much pleasure I since ancient times. Both Egyptians and Romans prized them. The Persians regarded them highly in 140 B C. or thereabouts. A pickle packer told us that more pickles are sold in America than any other vege table. California is third big gest pickle producing stale but first in cucumber yield per acre with 18,000 pounds compared to average yield per acre of 7,700 pounds. Most of them are packed in clear glass jars with small informative labels in order to allow a maximum of pickles to show. Packers feel that a good look ing pickle i Its own best salesman. Children Like Picklot A survey conducted by the llomemakers C-uild of Amer ica revealed that children con sume the largest amount of pickles with men second in pickle-eating popularity polls. The children neither know nor care, but pickles provide a good source of vitamin A, valuable amounts of vitamin C; are fair sources of copper, iron, calcium and phosphorus. Pickles aid digestion, a fact contrary to some people's ideas. Mostly they're eaten just because they taste good, compliment an infinite var iety of foods.
