Darnedd* Although the problems of con stitutional revision and congres sional redistricting forced mem bers of the 1965 legislature to stay in session much longer than they had pluiimsi and seemed to imply great disagreement between the House and Senate, the legislature did accomplish much of whut it had set out to do at the start of the session last January. The controversial subject of re vising Oregon’s workmen's com pensation law a problem unsolv ed by past session*—was achiev ed this year with passuge of a bill to increase benefits, broaden coverage and provide employers with the choice of obtaining job injury insurance for employees from either the state fund, n pri vate firm or self-insure. Also a controversial subject.

The legislature also referred to the people a measure to place a four-cent per pack cigarette tax on the 1966 primary ballot with half the revenue* earmarked for property tax relief and the re maining half split between coun ties and cities.

Business firms requiring in ventories to do business got some tax relief with passage of a bill to phase out 50 per cent of the inventory tax over the next five years at 10 per cent per year. The legislature appropriated $2 million from the general fund to local taxing districts to offset lost revenue due Io the 10 percent reduction in the first year—1966.
