Jail costs Bill
AUSTIN ■ Rep. UP.
“Pete" Patterson has introduc-
ed legislation that would re-
quire parolees and proba
tioners to pay jail costs for
their time in county jail prior to
their convictions.
They would pay the lesser of
$45 a day or actual jail costs
established by the county for
incarceration prior to their
convictions, said Patterson,
D-lBrookston.
“It may seem harsh, but the
soaring costs of crime on coun-
ties and law-abiding taxpayers
is even worse.” Patterson said.
—“I Think a person would better
understand the weight of his
crime if he is forced to pay
back some of what it costs us
all."

Good things in small
packages: The entire island na-
tion of Madagascar is about the
size of Texas, but don’t let its
size fool you. The number of
different animal species found
only in Madagascar is unmat-
ched anywhere else in the
world. International Wildlife
magazine reports that more
than 90 percent of the island's
primates and reptiles are found
nowhere else on earth.

Leader!
Austin-State Sen Ted Lyon
said today that he is pleased
with his committee
assignments for the 71st
legislative session.
Lyon, D-Rockwall, was ap-
pointed January 11 by Lt. Gov.
Bill Hobby to serve another
term on the Senate Criminal
Justice, State Affairs, and
Natural Resources Committee
and chairman of the Subcom-
mittee on Elections. Lyon was
also appointed to the Subcom-
mittee of Agriculture.
“1 am very pleased with
these appointments, Lyon said.
“We have alot of work to do in
these areas this session and I’m
pleased to have the opportunity
to be a vital part of these
discussions.
Lyon, a former police of-
ficer. said he will he especially
active on the Criminal Justice
Committee this session. His
legislative priority this year is
to step up the war on drugs in
Texas, and he is working on
legislation to boost law en-
forcement efforts, drug educa-
tion, and rehabilitation for
drug addicts.
Lyon’s plan also calls for
additional prison construction
to handle a growing prison
population. Since 1982, the
number of inmates in the Texas
Department of Corrections has
increased by 120 percent
because of the many new laws
passed in recent yeasr impos-
ing stiffer penalties for drug of-
fenders. TDC records show 80
percent of inmates are in prison
on drug related charges.
In order for his Legislative
package to be successful, Lyon
said millions of dollars will be
required from state coffers.
“In order for us to win the
war on drugs, we have to have
the Financial resources
necessary to hire and train ad-
ditional law enforcement of-
ficers, build additional prison
space, and implement a com-
prehensive prevention and
education program in our
public schools,“he said. “The
drug problem in our state has
grown to epidemic propor-
tions, and is affecting all
aspects of our society.”
Lyon said he is working
with police and sheriff’s agen-
cies from across the state, the
Department of Public Safety
and the Drug Enforcement Ad-
ministration to develop a com-
prehensive enforcement plan.
He is also working with the
state budget leaders to acquire
funds for the project.
“We are seeing signs of im-
provement in the state’s
economy, but we are still
operating on state government
under serious budgetary
restraints,” he said. “We have
a number of funding priorities
this session, but I believe we
must give our criminal justice
system significant attention.”
Lyon said he is also pleased
with his continuing appoint-
ments to the State Affairs and
Natural Resources committees.
“I am especially pleased to
have been appointed vice
chairman of the Natural
Resources Committee,” he
said. “This will be extremely
important to Northeast Texas
where do much of our state’s
recreational and mineral
resources are located.”
Lyon, who was re-elected to
a third term in the Texas
Senate in November, took the
Oath of Office in a special
swearing-in ceremony on the
opening day of the 71st regular
session January 10.
“This is going to be an ex-
citing session,” Lyon said.
“There are many issues to be
addressed and we have a
chance to make some very
positive investments in the
future of our state. I am
hopeful that both houses of the
Legislature, the Governor, and
other state leaders will be able
to work together to accomplish
what needs to be accomplished
in a timely fashion.”

Editor Arthur Brisbane used
to dictate his editorials. He
spelled out everything, leaving
nothing to his secretary’s judg-
ment. He even indicated punc-
tuation bv saying “period” at
the end of a sentence. “quota-
tion mark,” etc.
It was not an easy habit to
shake. Once, at the University
of Chicago, Brisbane delivered
an address to the faculty. After
some minutes, he could see
that his listeners appeared
puzzled. Later, he asked one of
the professors if something had
been wrong with his speech.
“No, it was fine,” the other
assured him, “except that you
used too many commas.”

Solar bear: Polar bears come
equipped with thick fur and a
good helping of blubber but
these big bears are also mobile
solar collectors. International
Wildlife magazine reports that
the long hairs of the bear’s pelt
are transparent; they allow
sunlight to penetrate all the
way to the skin. And the bear’s
skin is black which absorbs the
sun's heat.
