J J VA Weekly Report From N 0 wWK Senator John B Augsburger

President Ronald Reagans historic address here on Tuesday and final action on over 100 bills were two of the highlights this week in the Indiana General Assembly. The President's speech on the "New Federalism” to a joint convention of the General Assembly was enthusiastically received. The concept of federalism is not a new one to Indiana. As the President noted in his speech, the Indiana General .Assembly passed a resolution in 1947 and another in 1951 expressing the belief that "constitutional rights and responsibilities of the states must be recovered, that the tax sources of which we have been deprived must be restored; and that the Federal Government must restrict its activities to matters of the broadest national interest.” The philosophy embraced in that 1951 resolution is still held today by many Hoosiers. State and local governments are in a better- position to administer many of these programs, because they are more aware of the needs of their citizens and because the administrative mechanisms for implementing the programs are already in place. The Senate this week heard over 100 bills as the deadline drew near for final passage. Among some of these were bills pertaining to financial safeguards for residents of retirement homes, establishing a film commission, in Indiana and providing for judges pay raises. H B 1048. the result of two summers of study, stipulates that persons who agree to provide continuing care to an individual under a continuing care agreement must register with the Securities Commissioner. The provider must also disclose information regarding the ownership and management of the facility as well as a description of their services. The bill, which passed the Senate 44-0. is designed to provide information and additional safeguards for retirement home

residents Indiana will now join other states in the pursuit of film and television revenues with the passage of legislation creating the Indiana Film Commission. The commission would be comprised of 20 members, 18 of whom would be appointed by the Governor Surrounding states with film commissions have been able to bring millions of film dollars into their states as a result of effectively selling their state as a site for movie, television and feature film locations. Our commission will act as a source of information on Indiana for prospective producers and directors who are looking for film sites. The commission will also send representatives to regional film commission meetings. It is hoped that the result of this will be millions of dollars spent in Indiana from filmmaking as well as a chance for people all over the Suicide rate drops near election day Myron Boor, psychologist, of Rhode Island Hospital has found there are fewer suicides in the United States in the two months preceding Presidential elections than during the same period in other years. The rate remains low for the months immediately after the elections also. Boor’s findings show it is important to encourage people to participate in society-oriented events which include elections.

country to see Indiana in a positive light. I am a Senate sponsor of this bill. Regarding the pay raise for Indiana judges, the Senate approved a bill to increase filing fees in Circuit, Superior and Probate courts by $8 to fund an increase in judges salaries. The legislation provides an increase for a judge in Circuit, Superior or Probate courts of a Class 1 or 2 county from $37,500 to approximately $45,600 by 1985. Salaries of judges of the county or small claims courts would increase from $30,500 to $37,108 in the same period and judges of the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals would rise to about $51,000 by 1985Finally, the Senate also approved this v eek a measure that I am sponsoring, which would

Report from your State Representative THAMES AAAUZY

State Representative Thames Mauzy (R-Warsaw) applauded the “New Federalism” initiative outlined by President Ronald Reagan before a joint session of the Indiana General Assembly on Tuesday. “Mr. Reagan has a solid program in place to reduce the cost of the federal government by returning programs back to those who can best administer them — state and local government,” he said. President Reagan was in the state to promote his vision of “government by the people" Unveiled in the State of the Union address two weeks ago. the plan involves a radical restructuring of the federal state relationship and includes: A full federal takeover of the Medicaid program, in exchange for the states' assumption of

This year’s session will end sometime next week, with the final days devoted to conference committee action. As indicated above over 100 bills received 1 ..al passage this week in the Senate.

Food Stamps and Aid to Families with Dependent children; An option turnback to the states of more than 40 federal, programs, along with a trust fund to pay forthem "The President’s proposal to give us our money back — as well as the decision-making power an authority to respond to the needs of Hoosiers as we see them — is encouraging and exciting,” said Mauzy-. He added that he was relieved to hear President Reagan stress that his trip to Indiana was not only for the purpose of generating support for his new program, but also to seek advise and input. "I am confident that state and local officials will rise to the challenge, and that program can, and will, be designed to function more efficiently and fairly on a state level." said Mauzy.
