But little attention has been given the importance of these two legis lative posts other than they rep resent the majority political views of each house. Although seldom recognised as such by the public, the Speaker of the House and Pres ident of the Senate are the strongest and most powerful legislative representatives i n the state. Their duties — powers by their very nature — are derived from rules of proceedings adopted by the legislature at the start of each session. They include the right to appoint all committees, com mitteemen, chairmen and vice chairmen, to refer bills to com mittees and preside over the as sembly. The importance of these powers can best be measured by the com mittee system itself, for it is in committee where legislation re ceives its most careful and thor- Wholesale Prices ON STEEL Up io 400 Lbs. ____ 318.50 400 io 1,000 Lbs....... .... 14.25 1,000 io 2.000 Lbs. 12.25 2,000 io 5,000 Lbs. 11.50 5,000 io 10,000 Lbs. 11.00 10,000 io 20,000 Lbs. 10.75 Ovsr 20,000 Lbs.____ 10.25 BLACK PIPE 313.00 (Ovsr 400 Lbs.)

These criticisms hold true only if citizens forsake their right io serve, or if they do not do their level best to reach just verdicts. We’d like to do our duty, of course, but it is hard to break up our routine of pleasant living. As citizens, some of us shirk voting and some try io get out of jury service. Perhaps we don’t value our freedoms enough. We inherited them and didn't earn them the hard way. Only a free people can enjoy the privilege of jury duty. An ancient philosopher once said that the mark of a citizen, as opposed to an alien, is his right to take part in the due admin istration of justice. When jury duty calls, think of 1 yourself as a juror seeking truth, hearing all the evidence and heeding the court’s instructions, j Follow the lawyers’ arguments ' and lay aside prejudice and fol- i low your intelligence and not j your emotions. Respect your fellow jurors, as they must respect you. In toler ance try for agreement, but never a verdict which violates the court’s instructions or finds as a fact what you know is untrue. When they call you to jury duty, make a liar out of the cri tics. Be a good juror and make our system of justice work. (Oregon lawyers offer this column as a public service.
