Port Angeles. All nine bills were introduced poses Monday, the first day of the 1970 Special Session. Conner is a member of the House Committees on Education and Libraries; Public Institutions and Youth Development and Transportation. The first measure introduced by Conner relates to sheltered Attorneys Join ;r Court Su In The firm of attorneys which serves as legal counsel to the Washington Education Association today filed an amicus curiae brief with the Washington State Supreme Court in support of an appeal to the high court by three Tacoma teachers. The court granted permission to the firm of Roberts, Shefelman, Lawrence, Gay and Moch to file the ~'friend of the court" brief in the appeal of a suit challenging the constitutionality of the state's 60- and 40-per-cent voting requirements for passing school finance issues. The amicus curiae brief, prepared at WEA's behest, supports the appellants' position that the 60 per cent favorable vote requirements violates the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, which guarantees the principle of one man/one vote. It contends that the 40 per cent turnout requirement also violates the 14th Amendment. WEA Executive Secretary Robert J. Addington called the 60 and 40 per cent requirements "a denial of constitutional privilege guaranteed to every citizen." "The Association believes," he said, "that these restraints placed on school finance measures violate the principle of one man/one vote which is guaranteed by the Constitution and which has been upheld by the United States Supreme Court." "There are some basic issues at stake here," he said. "There have been too many school levies lost to let these issues go unargued any longer." Thd case which is being appealed was filed last November in Pierce County Superior Court by three members of the Tacoma Federation of Teachers. Last month Judge Hardyn B. Soule, disagreeing with the suit's contention that the voting restrictions violate the Constitution, dismissedthe action, opening the way for a ruling by the State Supreme Court. The Tacoma case is one of four court challenges filed in the aftermath of last November's general election. The other three suits, all filed in federal district courts, still are pending. One suit was filed by WEA and two of its members in connection with the defeat of a bond issue in Central Valley school-district. The other two were filed by State Sen. Francis Holman of Seattle, challenging the defeat of a special levy in Seattle and a school bond issue in Franklin Pierce district. ine lie workshops for the handicapped. It would exempt from taxation goods or property that is processed or repaired in a nonprofit sheltered workshop, training or rehabilitation center for the handicapped. Taking them in order, here is the essence of the other bills: House Bill 6 - This would authorize the Department of Institutions to permit the sale of certain .convict-made goods that were produced as the result of occupational therapy. The products could be offered for sale at fairs, bazaars or other public gatherings of a temporary nature. House Bill 9 relates to veterans benefits and would authorize a bonus to veterans of the Viet Nam conflict. The money would come from the existing tax on cigarettes. House Bill 10 is directed at improvements to the state ferry system. It would allow the use of certain excess funds from the Puget Sound reserve account to build or otherwise improve the state ferry system. House Bill 12 would create significant changes in the state's unemployment compensation laws. It is one of possibly three or four bills which are expected to be introducted on the subject of umemployment compensation. "It's been 10 years since we've had any improvement in our unemployment benefits in this state," Conner said. "The general climate for passage of some type of legislation on this matter seems better this session than it has for several recent sessions.'" House Bill 13 relates to so-called remote school districts. It would restore funds to high school districts of 250 students or less. It provides that such schools shall be considered "remote and ion necessary." The bill has the effect of avoiding the necessity of consolidating such smaller school districts. House Bill 46 would authorize an increase in retirement benefits for state employees. House Bill 49 relates to the sites for nuclear power plants, and sets the state regulations and administrative body for determining the location of such sites. House Joint Resolution 3 calls for annual sessions of the Legislature. It would put a constitutional amendment on the ballot next November giving the voters the opportunity to accept or reject yearly sessions of the legislature.
