not like.
They've got to come up
with a program that will be
fair, equitable, and adequate.
And both Democratic and Re
publican members realize the
results of their actions could
affect the balance of power
in stale government.
They are the focal point of
legislative activity. Not until
the tax committee has drafted
its program, and it has been
approved in both houses of
the Legislature, will the Ways

The members of the House

from 33 to 61. They represent
such diverse interests as fi

freshman legislator, while
two others are serving their

The sounds, muffled by (he
stout steel side of the Prairie,
did not disturb 36-year-old W. j
a. Neal, of Dotham, Ala., who
was asleep in his bunk and
having a dream that would
change his life.
The dream was not of bat
tle, but of a new system of
shorthand, for Neal was the
fleet stenographer.
"It was the weirdest dream
I ever had," Neal. now 55,
recalls, "but it came true."
Neal, who owns two smatl
businesses here, said he re
members (inly one sentence
from tli dream: "to write with
the speed of speech, write In
the manner of speech.1
Improvement
Neal has parlayed that
sentence ihto a complete
shorthand system which he
says is a big improvement
over standard courses.
Neal s sleno-Magic ' con
sists of a series of symbols
which take the place of let
tors, words and sometimes
phrases much like any other
system
But "Stcno-Magic" is based
on the phonetics of the Eng
lish language, or how words
sound, rather than how they
are spelled.
"We don't need half of the
letters we use," Neal said.
Rirl will he nnenerl Wed- During the 19 years he work-
nesdav. April 24, at 10 a.m. j ed perfecting his system, he
by the Medford purchasing dropped nearly all the silent
aeont for the demolishine or I letters.
It's his first term in the legis
lature, but he's no newcomer
to government service. Smith
is a former director of the
U.S. International Market De
velopment programs, and
spent two years in Latin
America as market develop
ment director.
These are the men who are
drawing upon legislative
know-how, business and gov
ernment experience, and par
ty responsibility to mould
what will soon become Ore
gon's revenue program.
