Sound Out Public Opinion

Imperial county's two represen-
tatives in the state legislature were
back home Thursday for a month S
recess.
State Senator George Luckey and
Assemblyman Harvey Hastain, both
Cf Brawley. returned from Sacra-
mento Tuesday night. They will
go back to Sacramento again in
tine for the Mar. 3 opening.
Hastain described the legislature
rs lin a turmoil during the last
hours of session.
Up until a few days before the
close we had a moderate number of
bills presented, and then came the
last minute rush until all together
there were about 1000 measures to
be studied" he declared.
Reapportionment appeared uper-
most in Hastain's mind as the chief
issue. He said he was anxious to
sound out public opinion to deter
mine what course he should pursue
later.

Let the state department of edu-

sensus of opinion of school boards

Board members said they were
too close to their own problems
to be entirely unbiased even though
they fully realized problems of the
other town.
Officials of the state department
heard claims of the FL Centro and

be joined with San Diego county as
an assembly district, and still an
other that the county be coupled
with San Bernardino and River
side counties as a congressional
district.
Hastain indicated that he had
reached no opinion on his position
and did not intend to until the bills
are published and constituents have
been consulted.
He also asked for reaction to leg
islation introduced which eliminates
the "BraWley cutoff from highway
plans.
Hastain will probably return to
Sacramento a week in advance in
order to meet with the Ways and
Means committee of which he is
a member.
