Bottles sold on federal lands
may require five-cent deposit
Under a proposal published in
mid-December, a five-cent
deposit would be required for
every soft drink container sold at
national parks, military
installations and other federal
facilities.
Sales of beverages on federal
property constitute two to four per
cent of the total market. The new
policy would save an estimated
2,800 barrels of oil a day and
would reduce trash collection and
disposal costs by as much as $2
millio a year.

Opinion poll reports
Land use planning favored
A clear majority of Oregonians
favors an open primary, commun
ity land use planning, and the
death penalty for persons con
victed of murder, according to the
Oregon Opinion Index.
The Index is a polling organiza
tion run by Oregon Research Insti
tute. Oregonians are asked about
their attitudes on various issues
confronting them at the local, state
and national level, and their re
sponses are compiled in a
monthly report.
The latest report shows that 67
per cent favor the death penalty
for murder. Among those op
posed, 13 per cent said they
would favor capital punishment for
persons convicted of killing police
officers.
The proposed open primary law
would allow voters to vote for can
didates of either party in the
primaries. The Index shows 83
per cent of the people are in favor
of such a system.
Over four-fifths of the men and
nearly two-thirds of the women
surveyed said they had heard of
land-use planning. Sixty-one per
cent of the people in Oregon, ac
cording to the report, would favor
a policy of land-use planning in
their community.
Oregonians indicate strong
support for the environment, even
when faced with a choice between
jobs and environmental quality.
Fifty-eight per cent of those sur
veyed said they would oppose br
inging industry into the state which
would increase employment but
lower environmental quality.
A less convincing majority of
Oregonians favors registration of
firearms: 57 per cent favor this
type of gun control, and 40 per
cent oppose it. Interestingly, most
men (54 per cent) oppose gun re
gistration, while a majority of
women (69 per cent) favor regist
ration of firearms.
Voter increase due to
new mail registration
Voter registrations in Lane County have increased from 123,507 to
127,566 since the implementation of the state-wide mail registration
system two months ago, according to the Lane County Elections De
partment,
Elections Director Don Penfold says that the new party totals
include 75.814 Democrats, 43,298 Republicans, 5,574 Independents,
and 2,880 Non-Partisans.
Penfold says many of those registenng as Independents or Non
Partisans may be unaware that they cannot vote in the primanes,
including the May presidential pnmary. The Elections Department is
notifying them by mail of the situation.
The notice reads 'Voters wishing to vote for Democratic or Repub
lican candidates in primary elections must register in one of these two
parties 30 days before the pnmary election.

The uncompromising ones.
The calculations you face require no less.
The new compact HP-21 and HP 25
scientific calculators take it easy on your
budget —and give you the same uncom
promising design and quality that go
into every Hewlett-Packard pocket
calculator, regardless of price.
The HP-21 Scientific. *99.95.
32 built-in functions and
operations.
Performs all log and trig functions, the
latter in radians or degrees; rectangular/
polar conversion; register arithmetic;
common log evaluation.
Performs all basic data
manipulations -
and executes all functions in one second
or less.

Both the HP-21 and the HP-25
feature:

Let's you evaluate any expression with
out copying parentheses, worrying
about hierarchies or restructuring be
forehand. You see all the intermediate
data displayed; you rarely re-enter data;
you can easily backtrack to find an error
because all functions are performed
individually.
Pull decimal display control.
You can choose between fixed decimal
and scientific notation and you can con
trol the number of places displayed. The
HP 25 also gives you engineering nota
tion, which displays power of ten in
multiples of *3 for ease in working with
many units of measure—eg., kilo (103),
nano (10’), etc.
Come in and see these great new
