Atiyeh confirms candidacv in ‘78
Pt>o<o by F H A T Aj<mac*>ef
Predicting that the next governor will be a Republican, state
sentor Vic Atiyeh brought his campaign for the state 's chief
adminstrative post to Eugene Friday. Atiyeh, who lost to
Gov. Bob Straub in the 1974 election, attacked Straub as a
disappointment."
By JANE LEHMAN

Despite the odds that former Gov.
Tom McCall will again run in the Re
publican primary, state senator Vic
Atiyeh, R-Beaverton, will not be dis
counted in the gubernatorial race.
Speaking before the monthly Re
publican Forum Friday, Atiyeh as
sured listeners, “I am running for of
fice, I really mean it.”
Atiyeh explained many people
have questioned the seriousness of
his candidacy.
"Regardless of how many are in
the race I will be there,” he said. “I
believe my viewpoints of Oregon are
in tune with most of the people in
Oregon. I predict that the next gov
ernor of Oregon will be a Republi
can,” he said. But it’s up to us which
Republican will be the governor.”
Atiyeh ran for the governor’s seat
in 1974, pulling 40 per cent of the
vote, but not enough to beat
Oregon’s current governor, Bob
Straub. He has also been a member
of the Oregon Legislature since
1959.
Atiyeh attacked Straub on a
number of siiuse, especially for being
a “disappointment.” He said “It’s bet
ter not to promise at all, than raise the
hopes of the people who are waiting
for government to deliver — which it
isn’t.”
He pointed out one function that is
over-looked is cooperation between
the executive office and the Legisla
ture. ‘‘The Legislature furnishes work
and gives it to the governor to put into
effect. That has not occured.”
Addressing specific issues, Atiyeh
confirmed his support of “environ
mental issues reasonably adminis
tered.” He said, “We can have a heal
thy economy without sacrificing any
of our healthy environment — if we
have the right kind of leadership.”
He listed other planks of his plat
form as land-use planning, quality
public education, strong private sec
tor economy and jobs and conserva
tion of people s tax dollars.
Atiyeh concluded that much of the
problems in the governor's office
today stem from a lack of direction. “I
have the experienceand knowlegeto
lead not only people, but the machin
ery of government. I can bring the
best and brightest into state govern
ment and put them to work.
“Young people can’t start the kinds
of things many of us have had,” he
pointed out. “They can’t buy or build
their own homes because of high
property taxes.”
Another plan of acbon stressed by
Atiyeh to make state government
more responsive to its citizenry is to
instruct state workers to approach
their job in two ways. “Conserve tax
dollars and try to help people that
really need help.” He added that,
government must quit “intimidating
people and leam to serve them.”
In response to a question about
limiting migration into Oregon, Atiyeh
said, “We can't control where people
live in a democracy. But we can con
trol how we grow.”
