MEDFORD, OREGON of C onstitution To Be Big ssue in Legislature Editor'! note: United Presi International polled members of the 1963 Legislature for their viewi on lignificant is tue. Thit it the concluding dispatch of a five-part series. By ZAN STARK Salem - IUPII - Proposed re vision of Oregon's Constitu tion has become one of the most involved issues faced by the 1963 Legislature but there will be plenty of time for discussion, a poll by Unit ed Press International indi cated today. More than half the slate senators and about one-third of the House members an swered a series of questions submitted by UPI. Legislators were equally di vided over whether the con- Tanker Plane Crash Kills 11 Naha, Oklnawa-WPH-A U.S. Air Force KB50 tanker plane crashed into an Okinawan farmhouse Thursday and ex ploded, killing 11 persons and injuring seven others. An official spokesman at Kadena Air Force Base said seven of the dead were Americans who were mem bers of the plane's crew. The other four were members of an Okinawa farm family. The plane was en route from Yokota Air Base in Ja pan when it crashed shortly after it had waved away from an earlier landing at tempt. As the plane approached the field, one engine failed, ; the aircraft dipped, sliced off a 35-foot power pole, and j hurtled into the home of i farmer Chojin Fukuhara in ! nearby Yara village. j The house was demolished, j Wreckage of the house, which caught on fire, and the plane were spread over a wide area. Firemen were hampered in getting to the flames by muddy roads which caused several fire vehicles to bog down. Firemen fought the blaze for more than an hour before dousing it. Witnesses said all the vic times were burned beyond recognition. stitution should have a major or partial revision, but the poll showed they anticipated one of the longest legislative sessions in history. Sixteen lawmakers called for major revision of the con stitution, 15 for partial re vision, and one for no change. Several other senators and representatives declined to comment "at this time." Many legislators expressed views on how revision should be handled. Clarence Barton (D-Co-quille) commented "I favor a major revision, but am op posed to a number of the rec ommendations of the Consti tutional Revision Commis sion." Rodden's Opinion Rep. James A. Redden (D Medford) said "I do favor a Constitution. I feel that por tions of the proposed consti tutional revision would lead to its defeat if presented to the people now, I favor sub mitting a major revision plan to the people with certain changes. The most important Columbia Power Costs Discussed Vancouver, B. C. -IDPII-Talks on the cost of Columbia river power began Wednesday be tween U. S. and Canadian of ficials. Technical and financial ex perts from Ottawa, Victoria and Washington opened ses sions to discuss whether the United States will pay British Columbia Premier W. A. C. Bennett's asking price for the 1.3 million kilowatts of pow er that British Columbia will get from development of the major revision of the Oregon I Columbia. Bennett is demand ing "five mills per kilowatt hour, or the equivalent." The "equivalent" is what is required to cover the cost of building the three Canadian dams covered by the Canada U. S. treaty Mica Creek, Duncan Lake and High Ar row, the premier said. The B. C. government still has to ratify the treaty which was signed by Canada and the United States early in 1961. Outcome of the talks may not be known until the nego tiators report to their respec tive governments. change must be in the plan which leaves but one elective office." Rep. Merrill C. Hagan (R McMinnvillc) said "I favor adoption of the house cleaning portion of the proposed changes but do not favor the sections regarding the judicial amendments or the amend ments making the governor the only elected major state official." Rep. C. R. Hoyt (R-Corval-lis) replied "I definitely favor partial revision. I approach major revision with an open mind and would try to vote for it if it did not require giv ing up a few things that . . . are vital to the Oregon system as we have learned over the years to know and live with it." Rep. Edward W. Elder (R- Eugene) said "I favor a major revision but not as written by the commission. Without ma jor revision the legislature Request for Attorney Postpones Arraignment Klamath Falls tUPIi A re quest that the court appoint a defense attorney delayed ar raignment Wednesday of Roy al Jones, Klamath Fall?, on a charge of assault with a dan gerous weapon. Bail was set at $5,000. Jones is charged in connec tion with the shooting of his wife, Johnnie Mae, Tuesday. One bullet struck her behind the ear and two lodged in the left shoulder. She was report ed in satisfactory condition at a hospital here Wednesday. should, at least, jettison the type of clause that is statutory in nature." Estimates on Length Estimates on the length of the 1963 session ran from 100 days-the view held by Speak er - designate of the House, Barton - to predictions of "the longest session in history." Most legislators believed the session would last from four to six months. i Sen. Robert L. Elfstrom (R Salem) predicted "the longest in history." I Sen. Arthur P. Ireland (R Forest Grove) said "It would be foolish to try and esti mate ... but I will predict we are faced with the longest session in the history of the j state." Rep. Merrill C. Hagan (R McMinnville) com mented, "Some experienced legislators i indicate this could be the longest session in history. As much as six months has been indicated. This would be es pecially true if a tax plan was submitted to the people during the session." Rep. Carl Back (D-Port Or ford) said "not any shorter" than the 122-day 1961 session. Rep. Howard Willits (D. Portland) took this optimistia view: "I'll guess 100 days be cause there is a great deal ot advance preparation, becausa Barton will be in control, and because so many vet erans will have returned."
