t THURSDAY. FEBRUARY IB, 1961 Amendment Will Provide Annual Legislatures Representative John Dellen- back (R-Medford) today gave a further explanation of his bill, introduced Feb. 13, to amend the Oregon Constitu lion to provide for annual legislative sessions. Dellenback's proposed Con stitutional amendment would also eliminate current provis- ions for salaries and expenses to legislators and would per mit the legislature to set a new salary scale. He said he is "asking for yearly sessions which would open in January." "Sessions in odd-numbered years would consider any leg islation, but the regular ses sions held in even-numbered years would be devoted pri marily to the consideration of legislation relating to budget ary, revenue and taxation mat ters, Dellcnback said. "The need for annual legis lative sessions is becoming more obvious because the vol ume of work has increased to such an extent in recent years," Dellenback said. "We can no longer sound ly estimate 2 or 2Vt years in advance what our economic conditions and our tax col lections are going to be. The large tax surpluses of the last two sessions show that clear ly." Dellenback pointed out that his bill "provides that no law affecting the amount of a leg islative salary may take ef fect until the beginning of the regular session held in the odd-numbered year next suc ceeding the year in which the law is enacted." "In other words, if the leg islature passed a law setting certain salaries for its mem bers, that law would not be come effective until the fol lowing session and no legis lature would be in the posi tion of raising the salaries of Its own members," Dellen back said. He said "tile passage of this bill and its eventual approval by the voters of the state would open the door so that able legislators can devote the necessary time to legislative service." , "My concern is not primar ily for the present members of the legislature," he said. "Each of us knew what the salary picture wag -when we ran for office. But 'there are many people In, Oregon who would make excellent legisla tors but who oannot afford the financial sacrifice demanded by the present completely in adequate salary schedule. We should make It possible for them to become candidates.
