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."
