Oregon Well Governed
With Five Men Taking
Turns as State Chief
Salem-il'PD-Governor, governor, who's got the governor?
That has been a good question here this week, since no
less than five men will have been governor by week's end.
State Treasurer Howard C. Belton sat in the governor's
chair today, but Secretary of State Howell Appling Jr. takes
over when he returns from California Friday morning.
Senate President Harry Boivin (D-Klamath Falls) will de
pose Appling Friday evening, when Boivin returns home, also
from California.
Boivin will serve until Sunday, when Gov. Mark Hatfield
flies home from Ohio.
Earlier in the week, House Speaker Robert B. Duncan (D
Medford) was governor while Hatfield and Boivin were gone.
First in line of succession to governor is the Senate presi
dent. Then conies the House speaker, secretary of state and
state treasurer.
A successor takes over whenever the elected governor
steps out of state. But under Oregon law the successor is not
an acting governor, he is the full-fledged governor, with full
powers.
After state treasurer, the Oregon constitution makes no
provision for governor. No one knows what would happen if
the governor and his four successors should die suddenly, or
be incapacitated. It's never happened.
