7—Th« Mill City Enterprise, Thursday, May 11, 1967 Salem Scene by Everett E. Cutter COMMITTEE WORK MOST IMPRESSIVE Although Oregon legislative committee meetings are open to the public, most visitors skip them in favor of watch ing Senate or House floor ac tion from the galleries. It’s a pity, some legislators say, because most decisive action occurs in committee. Particulary impressed with committee procedures and ex tensive work that goes on after bills have been intro duced and assigned to various study groups are two fresh men representatives here, Marva Graham (R-Portland) and Robert Davis (R-Med- ford). “It’s amazingly easy some times to kill a bill in com mittee,” says Mrs. Graham. “A vote cast there is much more important than on the full House roll call, although the floor vote gets the play. And as a freshman, I can tell you there’s really no way to prepare for the type of ac tivity to be found in com mittees." Rep. Davis, who gained knowledge of legislative pro cedures through chairman ship of the Republican State Central Committee and has held elective office as Doug las County district attorney and circuit judge, likens the committee work to the sub merged nine-tenths of an ice burg. As an attorney on several important committees, he nor mally works from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 or 9:00 p.m., often dic tating correspondence to his wife and secretary, after hours. “Besides the work done in committees, I’m always im pressed by the necessary slowness of the legislative process,” Davis says. “It’s slow, but something must have merit if it can survive all this examination by peo ple from different geographic areas and representing dif ferent economic interests.” Mrs. Graham—her husband Douglas is just finishing at University of Oregon Medical School this spring—says she expected more partisan align ment on issues. She is pleased to find “responsible committee members who disregard party lines in getting the work done,” and she thinks highly Restaurants You’ll enjoy eating at these Fine Salem Restaurants EDDIE’S Seafoods • Steaks • Chicken Open for Lunch 11:30 a. m.
