a reasonable expectation of
Jobs' being available for newly
trained workers. He then
screens and tests applicants
for a program and asks the
stale director of vocational
education to set up a training
program in a nearby school.
State Power Rights
Claimed Too Strong
Salem - lUni - Private power
officials say a section on state
power rights In a proposed
new constitution is too strong.
John Y. Lansing of Pacific
Power ,'ind Light Co. testified
before the House and Senate
Committees on Constitutional
Revision. He asked (or rcstor
atlon of the terms of the pow
er section In the present state
constitution.
Lansing said the present
constitution sets out t h e
state's rights Involving "wa
ter" power. But he snid the
new constitution would give
the stale Hie right to control,
use, distribute and sell elec
tric energy produced "by any
method."
Lansing said those words
could authorize the state to go
into the nuclear power busi
ness. He said votes over the
years have indicated the peo
ple don't want the section
broadened in that fashion.
