DARRYL CLEVELAND "Too much going on now." MRS. SEWELL "They waste time." CAROLYN COWLES "They should have stayed home." i TERI MOORE "They've been dragging." O I By DIANE HUCKS The state legislature has been in session for four months. Do you think it has been productive? In the Journal's weekly poll, 12 of the 14 persons to whom we posed this question felt strongly that the session has not been prt uctive enough and that it has been dragging its feet. Even the two persons who were less definite in their stands felt the session has been too long. The issue of school funding before the legislature was mentioned as particularly slow and critical by nearly half of those polled. Mrs. Sewell, oyster shucker, Rt. 5, Box 600 - No. I think they could have shortened it a little bit. I think they waste too much time. Carolyn Cowles, housewife, Rt. 5, Box 189 - No. I think they should have stayed home. All the bills that I considered important, they left unsettled - like the loggers' issue. All the unimportant ones they considered first. Gertrude Robertson, hospital food service director, P.O. Box 545 - No. I can't say I do. What [~ ~~/~ have they really, come up with? I don t think they ve done anything for the schools, have they? The people are the government and they (the legislators) are our representatives. We elect the same ones over and over again. They TRuU L never do what they should. That s / politics. Politics has to get out of government or it will never be any good. Pat Willey, registered nurse, P.O. Box 843 - Doesn't seem like they're doing much. l think ~Ry ~zau_ they re stalling and S.e,4. o10 procrastinating on the school YF,~--it tak~o~dytmettmtdt: issue, which 1 think is vital - especially for the other cities. Bill Madison, hospital orderly, 618 Fairmount - No. I just don't think that our legislature is going to do anything. I think it's worthless. Teri Moore, high school student, 716 Mason Lake Drive- Yes, 1 think they've done quite a bit. They're working on the teachers and the logging. I think they've taken too long of a time. They've been dragging it. Donn Reister, railroad section man, Phillips Lake - Doesn't seem so. Of course they can't do everything. There's a lot of stuff going on in the state itself. Byron Deffinbaugh, teacher, Rt. 2, Box 180 - Not very. They haven't produced any major bills according to the Governor. It's been one of the longest sessions in history. We have some critical issues .... schools particularly - that haven't been adequately resolved. Norm Huisingh, postal clerk, P.O. Box 776 - Not really. I don't think so. They haven't as yet come down with any definite solution as to the school funding problem. I think they should have come up with something by now. Darryl Cleveland, appraiser, 629 W. Pine - No, I don't think it's been productive. I think the basic reason is they put too much time into special or ridiculous bills, like they had this one to change the name of Mt. Rainier. And then they can't get the funding for the schools. [ don't think they're working hard enough on it. I think they should have an all-year legislative session, anyway. It was okay 30 years ago, but there's too much going on now. Walt Bloomfield, logger, Rt. 1, Box 475 - No. I think they're wasting a lot of taxpayers' money. I think they could have done what they did in the first week. Mrs. B. N. Mitchell, housewife, Rt. 5, Box 739 - Some things they are and some they're not. One thing you hear they're doing something about the teachers and the next you hear they're not. Mrs. S. W. Price, bookkeeper, 710 James - No. I think they're wasting time and not even working on the necessary bills. Lee Hinman, unemployed, Matlock - 1 think most of the Open Seven Days A Week Monday thru Friday 9:00 to 4:30 Saturday & Sunday 10:00 to 5:00 0 Fresh Blueback {Sockeye) Salmon from the Quinault River.

When they come to a decision I don't think it's for the benefit of most of the population. I think they put money into the wrong places- not enough jobs, not enough to supply people with what they need to live on - food. in Members of the Robinettes Drum and Baton Corps traveled to Richland by chartered bus Saturday and Sunday to participate in state competition.
