IS? 7329 a5K ay Legislative Briefs Salem -IUPD- A salary hike of 12 per cent for Oregon state police is provided in a Senate bill introduced by Al Flcgel, D-Roscburg and Anthony Yturri, R-Ontario. It would boost salaries of patrolmen to $5,520 annually and captain to $9,270. The House Committee on Labor and Industries said Fri day it would draft a resolu tion asking the state of Wash ington to extend workmen's compensation coverage to Ore gon employees hired by Ore gon firms working on jobs in Washington. Rep. Edward Whelan, D- Portland, said Oregon is now giving the coverage. ' Sen. Robert W. Slraub, D- Eugcne, said Thursday he has introduced a bill creating sum mer work camps operated by the state forestry department for boys between the ages of 15 and 19. Duties outlined in the bill include pruning young trees. thinning, forest sanitation, stream clearance and building and maintaining fire trails. The camps also would be available for emergency fire control work, he said. The Oregon Senale veiled 22-7 to override Gov. Mark Hatfield's veto last session of Senale bill permitting in jured workers coining under unemployment compensation to seek private doctors if they choose. Sen. Carl Francis, R-Dav- ton, who introduced the bill, , voted with most Democrats j for the override. The bill and veto message now goes to the House where a two-thirds vote to override is unlikely since the Democrats have only a 31-29 majority. Rep. Ken Maher, R-Port- land, said Thursday he will in troduce a bill to raise the legal driving age in Oregon from 16 to 18 years and making 17 the minimum age for a learn er's permit. At present a learner s per mit may be obtained at age 15. Maher said the bill will pro vide for issuance of a driver's license to those under 18 only if the license is necessary for transportation to school or for employment. Wishes for a speedy recov ery to Rex Putnam, superin tendent of public instruction who is hospitalized here, were sent Thursday by the Joint House-Senate Committee on Education. The Senate Rules commit tee decided Thursday to do away with the practice of in troduction of bills by request of private groups and state agencies. In the House, bills may still be introduced by a legislator designating who asked him to introduce it. The Senate change means the private groups and others must line up a solon to Intro- duce the bills as the senator's own. Oregon Civil Defense Direc tor A. M. Sheets Thursday asked the House Judiciary Committee to introduce a con tinuity of government bill to implement the constitutional amendment approved by the voters last November. Among other things, the bill would provide for succession to the governorship and an emergency session of the leg islature in case of attack. The Joint House-S e n a t e Committee on Education had a good-natured laugh Thursday when two Musas chimed in simultaneously on a roll call vote. The husband-wife team - Sen. Ben Musa, and Rep. Katherine Musa, of The Dalles, both Democrats -rare ly meet in official legislative situations. Musa, however, belongs to the Senate Education commit tee and his wife to the Edu cation committee in the House. The roll call miup came at one of the commit tee's infrequent joint meet ings. While the rest of the com mittee chuckled, both Musas looked a little sheepish aboul the whole thing. House Judiciary committee which will consider the bill. Van Hoomissen is chairman. Another Oregon legislator got a personal spittoon beside his desk Thursday. Sen. Al Flcgel, D Roscburg, made the presentation on the floor of the Oregon Senate after Sen. Thomas R. Ma- honcy, D-Portland, remarked that some people might "cae" before the 1961 session is over. The only other legislator besides Mahoney thus far to have a personal spittoon is Rep. Grace O. Peck, D-Poit-land. Opfomefn'sf To Spak It Klamath Falls o Dr. William J.

Hear the Traditional Choir Singing AMER ICA At Sign Off Time The Joint Ways and Means committee has taken a look at a not unpleasant problem what to do about surplus funds. Leon Margosian of the fi nance department told the committee agencies would ike lo spend any extra money for "enrichment of program." He said the finance depart ment, however, felt the legis lature intended for services lo remain at levels indicated at the time funds were appropriated. Sen. Alfred Coruelt, D- Portland, commented, "once you enrich the program you can never unring the bell." Such enrichment, he said, would put the legislature on the spot to maintain the service. Salem IUPD - Sen. Loyd M. Key, D-Mllton - Freewater, has introduced a bill to delay the effective date of a now law requiring county acces sors to put all property on the tax rolls at 25 per cent of true cash value.
