By John W. Umatead. Jr.
Orange Cnanty'e Repcenentative in tto Legrifistuno
Since very few of tto citiieni
of tto state realise tto impor
tance of legislative committees in
the program for the enactment of
cur laws, it occurred to me that
the readers of the Weekly might
be interested in this phase of our
law-making procedure.
To anyone who gives the mat
ter a moment of thought R is
evident that it would be abso
lutely impossible for each and
every member of the 60-man sen
ate or the 120-man house to give
careful consideration to each bill
introduced during a session. For
this reason we have adopted the
committee plan for consideration
of each bill. For instance, we
have tto two judiciary commit
tees in both the senate and tto
house to consider all tolls per
taining to legal procedure. All
matters baring to do with public
education are considered by the
committees on education while
bills concerning roads and high
way safety are sent to tto com
mittee on roads.
Except on rare occasion! when
under consideration the commit
tees oa finance aad appropria
tions are tto only rsmminsis
who consider tolls to joint ses
sion. They told all haa rings an
appropriations and proponed new
taxes jointly and usually vote on
these matters as a stogie body.
