Daylight Savings Voters to decide on 'Vanna White veto By RICK RADIG City Editor The so-called 'Vanna White veto power of Wisconsin governors goes to the voters Tuesday. A referendum question on the April 3 ballot asks voters whether the governor's item-veto power should be diminished. It is specifically targeted for appropriation bills, and only affects the governor's power to create new words by vetoing single letters. A 'yes' vote indicates the voter believes the power should be limited, and the state Constitution amended to do so. A 'no' vote indicates support for the governor's existing power as outlined in the state Constitution.

REP. ROBERT Goetsch, R-Juneau, said he voted to take the measure to a referendum, but he. retains "some mixed feelings about it" On one hand, Goetsch said he supports the way Gov. Tommy Thompson has utilized the veto. On the other hand, he said, "I don't know if this is terribly important.

"I thought this is a minor lim itation of the power; to veto letters, but not whole words or numbers." The referendum issue pertains only to appropriations bills, Goetsch explained, because all other bills are vetoed in whole. Bills in which taxpayer's money is appropriated, however, are subject to the governor's veto pen. Supporters of the veto power, which the Wisconsin Supreme Court has upheld, say a "yes" vote would hurt the governor's ability to restrain an overbearing Legislature. "Some states limit what can be introduced in budget bills," stated Sen. Barbara Lorman, R-Fort Atkinson.

"But in Wisconsin a number of pork-barrel projects that should go through the normal legislative process are included in the budget "Until the legislature reforms the budget process, the governor's veto pen is the only check against big spenders," she said. "That check and balance must be maintained," echoed the Public Expenditure Survey, a research organization which tries to promote efficient and economical government in Wisconsin, in its March newsletter. "The Survey strongly urges all concerned taxpayers to get out and vote no to his referendum." DEMOCRATS who control the Legislature dislike the way Thompson edited some of their bills in 1987. They called it Thompson's "Vanna White veto," referring to the television personality who helps game-show contestants select letters for words.

The veto ended for now right-to-life hopes to challenge the Supreme Court's commitment to legalized abortion. The anti-abortion governor, who said he had agonized over provisions of the legislation, said the bill does not provide a woman and her family any flexibility in cases of rape and incest "The bill is drawn so narrowly that it would punitively and without compassion further harm an Idaho woman who may find herself in the horrible, unthinkable position of confronting a pregnancy that resulted from rape or incest," he said in a written statement. Before the decision was announced at a 5 p.m. news conference, Andrus had remained closeted in his inner office as staff members handled the tide of phone messages.

It's Dodge County prepared for the worst Tornado Awareness Week observed as LT llV. it il 4 eaIr 1 4 jfr WpwH I II I II 14 I '77' ii) It II 14 14 DURING the watch phase, Witte said, the county notifies emergency respondcrs in surrounding cities, police and fire departments and EMS officials. He notes that little is done during a watch. Yet if county officials hear of a tornado coming in the direction of Dodge County or a tornado siting, a warning is immediately issued and the sirens are activated. For more on Dodge County tornadoes, see page 16 Once again, he said, emergency respondcrs are notified in all cities.

From there most of the cities disperse fire trucks to various locations and set up potters around the perimeter of the community. Witte notes that Dodge County docs not issue an all-clear siren. "If a second siren is sounded it's because another tornado has been sited," he said. When looking back 10 years ago to a tornado that devastated a mobile home park in Beaver Dam, Witte says that "virtually every tornado has the potential to be a 1980 storm. "It's just by chance where they hit," he said, adding that's why it's important to be prepared.

By CHERYL McCOLLUM JUNEAU Not only do tornadoes rip through Dodge County more than any other county in the state, but the county also has one of the best emergency reporting system in the state. That's according to Jerry Witte, director of Dodge County Emergency Government department, who notes that with the county's own emergency system, a hook-up with the National Weather Service and the assistance of local ham operators, Dodge County is in an excellent position to notify the public when bad weather hits the area. "We have one of the best reporting systems in the state," he said. WITTE and the rest of the officials with the county emergency government office are gearing up for next week's Tornado Awareness Week, April 1-7. The week will be highlighted by a state-wide tornado drill scheduled for April 5.

According to statistics from the National Weather Service, there were 43 tornadoes reported in Dodge County from 1950-1989, highest in the state. Dane County, located just southwest of Dodge County, had the next highest reported rate of 31 tornadoes. That keeps Witte busy, especially during the spring when the majority of tornado sitings are reported. When threatening weather approaches, Witte says an established procedure of activities is followed. Witte says the county monitors weather from four different sources.

The first source is a national telephone link, primarily set up for military attack warning, but also used as a warning for severe weather. Second, the county has a radio link between Juneau and Jefferson, Wis. which monitors information from the National Weather Service. Third, the Rock River Radio Club, which is affiiatcd with state and federal agencies, are ham radio operators who help spot threatening weather. And finally, the public is also helpful in reporting.

Witte notes that he asks the people to report hail if it's Vi-inch or, larger in diameter. "Hail is generally a very good indicator of bad weather," he said. When conditions are right for the formation of a tornado, a watch is issued. Ready to roll Indoor weekend? The forecast calls for cool, cloudy conditions with possible rain.
