Dellenback Reviews On Legislative Committees (Editor's note; This is the first legislative newsletter from Representative John Dellenback, Medford, who was elected from Jackson county last November, He discusses the committees on which he serves, and tome of the problems facing the the legislature.) By JOHN DELLENBACK Representative From Jackson County It is with surprise that I realize that five full weeks have gone by since we moved to Salem and began this legis lative session. Fortunately, the children adjusted swiftly to school, and Mary Jane has proved to be a conscientious and able secretary and valu able assistant. My days generally begin with committees or deskwork about 8 in the morning and run at the Capitol until about 6, with most evenings being taken up with an increasing number of committee meet ings, with work on correspond ence, or with an occasional social gathering with some of the other legislators. I am very favorably im pressed so far with the vast majority of the men and wom en who are your and our rep resentatives in the House. As they should, they differ wide ly in background, age. experi ence and fields of work, but Ihey are in general hard-work ing and earnest, doing their best to look to ihe broad good of their constituents and of the state at large. Sweeping RovUiong As many of you may have read or heard over the air, Governor Hatfield has sug gested sweeping revisions in the Executive branch of the state government. He feels that there are far too' many boards and com missions and departments which are expected to report directly to him and for the operation of which he has re sponsibility, and he has intro duced bills which he has re quested the legislature to en act into law which would make major changes in the organization of all of these various groups. As I explained to many of you during the course of the recent campaign, complicated measures like these are not considered immediately bv the full House, but are assigned to committees for preliminary study. One of the committees on which I am serving is slate and federal affairs, and it is to this committee that cgnsid- eration of most of these reor ganization plans has been as signed. Commence Study We have commenced our study ot the first of these measures, and it is certain that we will be spending a great many nights in the weeks ahead listening to testi mony and discussing the ad vantages to the state of these proposals. One of the major issues which is tied to this problem deals with the slate welfare commission. As many of you know, Governor Hatfield and the present welfare commis sion are in disagreement about THE GROTTO MEDFORD'S NEWEST DOWNTOWN RESTAURANT ALL YOU CAN EAT FROM OUR 22 FOOT BUFFET Luncheon 99c Children 59c 3 Meal Diihei Appetizers 15 Salads 2 DenerM Daily 11:00 'til 2:00 FRIDAY AND SATURDAY FEB. 17 & 18 Enjoy Your Favorite Deveragai In The Alley Lounge NUMBER 10 FRONT STREET MEDFORD STARTS TOMORROW - FRIDAY! IT'S A SCREAM! WACKy C0LUM&A PidfuRfS PIHI JACK 1 ! "IX II Ft '-I "Tht Aptrlimni' mtnl 1 ' iiihn I I the welfare program in Ore gon. In my mind there is a dan ger that the people will not realize that there are several very distinct issues involved. One is whether the headquar ters of Ihe welfare commis sion should be moved trom Portland to Salem. Separate Issue A separate issue is whether the welfare commission itself should be changed from a policy-making commission lo an advisory commission, with direct responsibility and con trol of the administration of welfare placed on the shoul ders of the Governor. Still another separate issue is whether, even without such basic reorganization, there are abuses present in the welfare program winch badly neca correcting. Until I have heard all the arguments and listen ed to all the testimony, I intend to maintain an open mind on the second and third issues above. As I have listened to the evidence, however, on the is sue of moving the welfare commission to Salem, I have gradually come to feel that such a move is an adminis trative problem which should properly be decided by the Executive branch of govern ment rather than by the leg islature, and that most of the objections raised to this pro posed move are short-range while most of the advantages are long-range. I feel that the legislature would be out of order in passing any bill pro hibiting this proposed move. On Judiciary Committee I servo also on the judiciary and education committees, and each of these is wrestling with large volumes of proposed leg islation. One matter of importance in the education committee upon which I am receiving a good deal of mail relates to increasing the educational re quirements for elementary school teachers to five years at the college level. The leg islation as proposed would not apply to teachers with certificates at the present lime, and new teachers com- ing inlo the field could begin to teach with the normal four- year training, and would have a number of years within which to get their additional year of training, The main support for this measure is coming from indi viduals and groups who feel that this is an important step in their attempts to 'upgrade' the teaching profession and thus benefit our children Introduces Resolution I introduced a resolution this week dealing with future legislative sessions. While I don t believe that sessions should go on loo long, and while I certainly don't believe that we need a great deal of new legislation, I am coming to the conclusion that the busi ness of the state has become too complex and too important lo all of us to permit the leg islature to meet only every second year. I believe it should meet for shorter sessions the early part of each year. This would per mit your representatives to keep a more direct control on the business operations of government and prevent the Dinner .... $1.49 Children 79c New York Cut Steak Shrimp Cocktail Soup 2 Donerts Dally 5:00 to 9:00 iS THE WORD Fofc FT RiCKV nthe 2d UNO . CHIPS IWFIRTY TOM TULLY His Work building up of the sort of sur pluses which each of the last two bienniums has seen cre ated. I also regret that the voters, primarily in the Portland area, have not seen fit to raise legislative salaries in the past. I am not concerned about those of us who are in the legislature at the present time, for when we ran for office each of us knew the salary situation, and became a can didate in spite of this fact. Deeply Concerned But I am deeply concerned that the completely inade quate present salary for legis lators prevents many able peo ple who could otherwise be effective and valuable legisla tors from even considering running for Ihis office. If leg islative salaries were reason able, many more people who could serve and would like to serve could well be attracted to offer themselves as candi dates for election. The resolution which I in troduced calls for a constitu tional amendment providing for annual sessions and remov ing the constitutional limita tion on salaries of $50 a month. It would add the very im portant provision, however, that no legislature could ever act to raise its own salaries, but could only pass salary change bills which would be come effective afler the next election. This should make it very clear that no legislature was ever seeking to feather ils own nest. I welcome letters from Jack son county, and repeat the statement that I made many times during the campaign that I consider myself the rep resentative of everyone in Jackson county, whether they voted for me or against me or didn't vote at all.
