County Representatives Deny
the do nothine" charrM
leveled against the 1963 Legis
lating was denied by all mem
bers of the Jackson County
delegation, speaking before
the Medford Chamber of Com
merce roundtable Monday
noon at North's Chuck Wagon.
Under questioning, how
ever, there was agreement
that no outstanding program
to meet the changing times
grew out of the longest session
in Oregon history.
Before the legislature con
vened, even before the present
members were elected, State
Sen. Lynn W. Newbry, first
speaker on the panel, pointed
out, he "predicted that the
1963 session would be the
longest and most difficult. It
was," he added, "the hardest
working, also, and the least
popular in many years."
The previous legislature, he
contended, set the stage for
this difficulty. Senator New
bry added that he was not crit
icizing that legislature, of
which he, also was a part, but
pointed out that it was up to
the 1963 legislature to raise
funds for an unprecedented
budget.
Major Accomplishments
A s major accomplishments
of the 1963 session, the Jack
son county senator listed the
adjustment of budgets and
passage of a taxation program.
He added lhat he had not been
satisfied with the tax program
but that he voted for it be
cause he had voted for the ap
propriations that had to be fi
nanced. This tax program did more
clearly reflect the cost of gov
ernment than the other pro
gram, allied with the cigarette
tax, which would soon prove
inadequate, Newbry contend
ed. Representative Ed Branch
field praised the work of the
Jackson county delegation,
stating "Everyone from here
worked hard and effectively.
We did have the opportunity
to stop some very bad bills in
committee."
Referring to measures of
particular interest to Jackson
county people which were
passed by the session, Branch
field mentioned the measure
to prevent storage of dyna
mite in areas accessible to
livestock and irrigation dis
trict legislation.
The divorce conciliation
bill, Branchfield predicted,
will have a far reaching effect.
He said the 1963 legislature

was generally more kindly
disposed toward interim com
mittee bills than its prede
cessors were.
Expresses Disappointment
He expressed disappoint
ment that the constitutional
revision legislation was not
passed. Referring to the tax
program adopted, Branchfield
said he did not vote for it, but
would when it is referred to
the people in the fall.
"Whether we like it or not,"
he declared, "we have to run
this state of Oregon and we
must have money to do it."
Branchfield said he thought
the leadership could have
been and should have been
stronger but added that there
were 90 views in the legisla
ture, 91 counting the gover-

To Appeal Ruling
Portland-UPD-The Simmons
Institute filed notice Monday
it intends to appeal a deci
sion of State Superintendent
of Public Instruction Leon
P. Minear' denying it a voca
tional school license.
The appeal will go to Mul
nomah County Circuit Court.
Minear denied the license
after a public hearing May
27. He concluded that the in
stitution already was operat
ing without a license, that it
failed to state the qualifica
tions of its instructors and
that there was evidence stu
dents were being influenced
to invest in other business
ventures of the institute,
notably land development
projects in Central Oregon.

nor, and that he believed most
of these individuals were vot
ing their convictions. He listed
as one of the most encourag
ing discoveries he made at the
legislature the realization that
one member can influence leg
islation if it is in his commit
tee. Repeats Contention
Representative James Red
den repeated the contention of
the first speakers that the
1963 legislature was a hard
working legislature. He said
impressions to the contrary
were often gained by the press
because most of the work was
done in committee with few
dramatic incidents to be re
ported from the floor.
He described the heavy
work load resulting from the
effort to conduct public hear
ings on every bill. The great
est problem faced by the 1963
legislature, he said, was the
fact that the surplus was gone.
The legislature had to raise
$60 million through a tax pro
gram, he explained, adding
that he preferred the original
bill with net receipts and cig
arette tax, but that he voted
for the budgets so felt he had
to vote for a tax bill to finance
them.
He maintained that any tax
bill .passed would have been
referred to the people.
Claims Are Refuted
He stated that he personally
preferred to see more money
in basic school support fund.
Referring to possible alterna
tives if the tax bill is turned
down by the people, he said
the governor would have the
choice of cutting $60 million
from the budget or calling for
a special session. Education

He refuted claims that vot

two or three instances, he, de
clared, in which the votes
were divided on party lines.
Representative John Dellen

delegation, also stressed the
role of the committees in Ore

the committee is the vital and
tremendous influence, he de

gamzing the House on non
partisan lines, Dellen back
dropped a word of praise for
Congressman Robert Duncan,
former House speaker. "I see
in retrospect that Duncan did
a very good job," he stated.
Two Significant Votei
Two s i g n i f i cant votes,
which he claimed were re
corded on strictly party lines
were on the sales tax and re
apportionment. Lamenting failure of the
constitutional revision legisla
tion, Dellenback referred to
passage of the bill for reor
ganization of the department
of commerce as a pilot pro
gram which may lead to con
fidence in reorganization. He
said he did not feel that all
had been lost in defeat of the
constitutional revision legisla
tion since important ground
work had been laid.
He predicted that sessions
of the legislature would con
tinue to grow longer until the
state goes to annual sessions.
Trying to guess 2V4 years in
advance is too difficult. The
state is getting too complex
for short sessions with this
long period elapsing between
sessions, he summarized.
The greatest problem facing
education is how to maintain
quality with the increased
numbers to be considered, he
remarked.
Saw No Provision
Asked during the question
period why he had opposed
constitutional revision, New
bry replied that it was be
cause of article 5, which he
maintained would have de
stroyed government through
citizen participation, which
Oregon has today.

I saw no provision for citi
zen participation. It was not
an easy decision to make. I
know Oregon needs some new
language in the constitution,"
Newbry concluded.
Asked if he did not believe
In two-party government, Del
lenback responded that he did,
but that he thought when the
membership is -f.s closely di
vided as it was in the 1983
House, and when the party in
power "does not have a strong
program to push," the House
should be organized on non
partisan lines.
Given a preview of ques
tions to be submitted to the
delegation next week when he
will not be present, Newbry
said if the referendum on the
new tax measure is defeated
in the October election, the
state will be faced with the
necessity for a special session
of the legislature to bring in
another proposal and in the
meantime will lose at least
$24 million by the time the
process is completed.
Considering a curtailment
of services of adjustment of
budgets, he continued, there
will be two places vulnerable,
higher education and the basic
school fund, with two alterna
tives to be considered - higher
fees and increased property
taxes at the local level.
Referring to the defeat of
the Civil Defense budget, the
Jackson county senator said
the budget was poorly pre
pared and the legislature was
still thinking about the disas
trous October storm experi
ence. He contended that the
federal government was not
assuming its responsibility in
.this field.
