Capitol News Senators Introduce 111 New Laws During First Week; More to Come By Melvin Paul State house Corres|K>ndent The Nebraska Press Association LINCOLN — Bills continue to pour into the Nebraska Legisla ture, now in its second week. In dividual senators will have through Jan. 30 to introduce bills, then only standing committees or the governor may do so. The first week of activity produced 111 pro posed new laws, many of them eliminating obsolete sections of statutes or harmonizing them with others. Early indications are there will be much debate over proposals introduced to allow other elect ed officials to run for governor, having the governor and lieuten ant governor run for four year terms as a team, and extending term of state senators to four years. Now, every elected official hut the governor cannot seek the governorship without waiting for two years after his term expires. Even the lieutenant governor can not file for the governorship with out abiding by the same provi sion of the Constitution that re quires the waiting period. Veteran observers noted that the first few days of the bill in troduction period produced fewer bills than normal. Many senators feel there will be less legislation proposed this session. Others think the total bills will hit the «00 mark. Now it is too early to guess at the final total. Governor Morrison Frank Brenner Mirrison, a 55 year-old Lincoln attorney and Democrat, is Nebraska’s 31st gov ernor. He is the eighth Democrat to hold the office. What type of person is he? Morrison is six feet, three inches tall and weighs 225 pounds. He has a firm handshake, graying hair, good speaking voice and likes to meet people. He was born at Golden, Colorado, May 20, 1905, was graduated from the Un iversity of Nebraska law college m 1931 and began practicing in Maywood in Frontier county in 1932. His middle name is the family name of his mother. The Morrisons have two sons, Frank Jr., and Jon, and one daughter, Jean. Both Morrison and his wife, Maxine, were Republicans at one time but changed parties in the 30s. Morrison has been dabbling in politics for about 20 years, won many primaries for various of fices but never got real close to a general election victory. The new governor plunged into INSURANCE Hospitalization Mutual of Omaha LIFE United of Omaha Oscar Spitzenberger Box Telephone 888 O'Neill, Nebr. Office at 429 North 3rd Street 38tf duties of his office with vigor af ter his inauguration at which he asked Nebraskans to join him in efforts to “make Nebraska grow.” He says he will emphasize conso lidation of functions in his ad ministration, attraction of indus try and explore how to improve the tourist business. Among his specific proposals were those calling for executive authority for the highway com mission which now is advisory, and changing responsibility for collection of fuel, cigarette and oil taxes from the agriculture de partment to the tax commission er’s office. Attorney General Atty. Gen. Clarence Meyer has named Jerry Vitamvas as his deputy and appointed Mel Ham mer lohr of Hastings as an assis tant attorney general to replace Vitamvas. Former attorney gen eral C. S. Beck was elected to a district judgeship in his home town of North Platte. Vitamvas had been an assistant attorney general for several years after serving as assistant clerk in the State Supreme Court. Budget Approach The budget committee of the Legislature is taking an unusual approach to state spending this session. It this week began a ser ies of “pre-budget” hearings which its chairman, Sen. Richard Marvel of Hastings, described as “fact-finding” hearings. These will be designed to find out each de partment functions and as much about its fiscal operations as pos sible before public airings of the agencies’ requests for tax funds are held. Public Welfare Public Welfare will get consid erable attention this session of the Legislature. Sen. Sam Klaver of Omaha says he will call for a legislative investigation of the program, at the state and local levels. The Legislature also will un doubtedly face the problem of what to do about the federel pro gram for giving medical aid to the aged. The advisory commit tee to the State Board of Public Welfare has suggested a “min imum program” with the state’s share of that program to' cost about $4.1 million. There also are two other ap proaches, one costing $6.4 million, and the maximum of $13.6 mil lion. State Public Welfare Director Frank Woods says Nebraska has about 155,000 persons 65 years old or more, of which about 20 per cent need medical financial aid.
