Officials get 276 warning
The Public Disclosure Commission announced that since April
'letters of non-compliance" with Initiative 276 have been sent out to
nearly one-third of Washington's 6500 elected public officials. The
commission, which was set up to enforce the open-government
inftiative passed by the voters overwhelmingly in 1972, recently
compiled a "comprehensive" list of all elected officials in the state. Its
staff, under the direction of Research Analyst Cindy Fey, has been
checking to see if those on the list fded a financial affairs report, known
as an F-1 form, during January of 1974.
for stop sign posts?
Should stop signs be mounted on striped posts? That question was
asked of the Citizens' Advisory Committee on Highway Safety, the
official advisory committee to the Legislative Transportation
Committee, at its May meeting in Wenatchee. The Washington Traffic
and Safety Education Association proposed the following: "That all
stop signs be placed on wooden posts that are striped, white and red."
The association stated, "This would allow instant recognition of a stop
sign even if the sign itself is partially obstructed by bushes, etc."
Impeachment documentary due
"The Impeachment of Andrew Johnson," an hour-long television
presentation examining the only Presidential impeachment proceedings
in the 200-year history of the United States, will be broadcast
Saturday, July 6 at 9:30 p.m. on KCTS/9. The program will be
videotaped on location in the old North Carolina State Senate
legislative chambers in Raleigh, North Carolina. The North Carolina
chambers were chosen because of their similarity in style and
appearance to the U.S. Senate chambers, where cameras are not
permitted. A cast of more than 75 actors and extras are being
assembled for the production which will recreate the historic Senate
trial.
Smoking ban hearings set
The Washington State Board of Health has selected six cities
throughout the state to hold public hearings on a proposed regulation
to limit cigarette smoking in public places. These cities include Seattle,
Mount Vernon, Bremerton, Vancouver, Yakima and Spokane. Public
hearings will be held in Seattle on July 12 and in Bremerton on July 26.
Any person wishing to comment on the proposed regulation should
write to John A. Beare, M.D., Secretary, State Board of Health, P.O.
