Comer ERA EXTENTION: D TAMPERING By Sen. Orrin G. Hatch The proposal to extend the time limit for consideration of the Equal Rights Amendment is an attempt to tamper with a fundamental constitutional procedure. None of us need to be reminded of the enormous amount of emotion generated by the ERA issue. But we must take great care not to allow those emotions to obscure the effects of the extension proposal; because the methods by which we consider changes in the Constitution are ultimately of far greater significance than the specific changes themselves. Central to the amendatory process is the requirement that the people reach an overwhelming consensus on proposed amendments to the Constitution. Article V requires s that of both Houses of Congress propose the of the state legislatures amendment, and that or conventions must ratify it. No distinction is drawn between procedure and substance both are interrelated steps in a single effort to demonstrate the necessity of the proposed change. When the 92nd Congress submitted the ERA to the states, it did so in the form of a resolution which conditioned ratification upon the consent of of the states "within seven years. The setting of a reasonable time limit in which to demonstrate the consensus required for ratification can hardly be considered a minor procedural detail, as advocates of extension have argued. The choice of seven years was not an arbitrary one, but has been the length of time deemed reasonable for consideration of every proposed amendment since 1917. Extension advocates now propose that we retroactively change the rules. They maintain that such a change can be s affected by a simple majority vote rather than the majority required by the Constitution in the proposing of amendments, disregarding the fact that the time limit is an essential component of the amendatory process. The crowning assertion is the insistence that those states which have approved the amendment under the terms originally proposed by Congress must be content to have the life of .their approvals artificially preserved, while only those states which have failed to ratify remain eligible to consider the amendment during the extension. The astonishing unfairness of extending consideration only to states willing to vote "yes is a particularly ironic proposal, coming as it does from those who represent themselves to be such strong supporters of equal rights. What emerges from an examination of the extension consensus as proposal is the fact that a "contemporaneous to the desirability and necessity of the ERA simply doesnt exist. Like Cinderellas sisters, forcing their feet into her delicate glass slipper, the proponents of this unprecedented proposal would force the amendment into our fundamental law, regardless of the structural damage that would result. To sustain such damage for the sake of expediency would indeed be tragic. (Guest columnist Orrin G.

A typical policyholder who pays an annual premium of $200 and qualifies for the discount will save $28 if his home was built this year. Byron said the discount is being put into effect because occupants are outside on the back patio or deck or are working in the yard. A thief seeing that the family is busy in the yard knocks on the front door and enters when no one answers and pilfers the home while the residents are busy outside.

It is a good idea to determine who is knocking on the front door before you open it. An intercom system or a peephole door viewer should be utilized. At the very least look out a window to see who is on the porch before opening the door. Many criminals have used a pretext of being a repairmen, policeman, salesman or even a clergyman to gain access to a residence to commit a ertime. If you are not certain who it is at the front door, do not open the door and admit that person is you are home alone. Do not admit to anyone that you are home alone. If necessary, call a neighbor and have that neighbor come out on their porch and watch while you open your front door and speak to whoever it is on You, of your doorstep. course, should offer to do the same thing for your neighbor.

But, dusting off that paper might help bit, if it hasnt been thrown away already. Just what exactly were those ideals that were burning in your head the first of the year? Did you want to get your garden in early this year? Thats one thing that cant get done this year, as it harvesting time now, but make a definite plan now for next year, plotting it out exactly and getting the ground ready before winter frosts. How about perhaps that ideal of spending more time with the family and friends? Has any progress been made in that direction, or has the busy, crazy days of summer taken up in hedonistic pleasures robbed you of your time? Maybe now that the children are safely tucked into school during the day, plans can be made for fun in the afternoon or on weekends. Is there a book on the shelf that needs to be read or a. handicraft project that was begun during the heat of spring fever that has been forgotten during the summer months? Or how about that leaky faucet or hole in the fence that needs mending? Time is a valuable asset that is available to all in the same increments. Just that use and allotment makes the difference between what is done and what could be done. Some will use it wisely and others will squander it away daydreaming of what they might do.

Assistance asked Campaign advertising The Utah Department of Transportation is calling on all political candidates this year to comply with both the Utah Highway Beautification Act of 1967 and the National Highway Beautification Act of 1965. Under those statutes it is illegal to place signs in the right of way on Interstate or any state highway. Any signs illegally placed on the rights of way of state roads will be immediately picked up and discarded by the said Boyd Hansen, UDOT Highway Department, Beautification and Encroachment Coordinator. Signs cannot be erected except in commercial or industrial areas and owners must first be granted a permit before any sign may legally be erected. Under the Highway Beautification Act no outdoor advertising signs can be placed along Interstate or Primary Highway systems or within the state highway right of way without permit. No political signs of any kind can be allowed or permitted within the state right of way. Hiis includes telephone poles, fences, trees or existing official signs located in the right of way. Time wasted by UDOT personnel to remove those signs during election years has been considerable in thejwst and the Department is requesting the cooperation of all political candidates in Utah in adhering to both the intent and letter of the law. |
