Candidates continued from page 1A able for grants instead of loans. Both politicians said they’d enact similar forest policies in response to the wildfires that devastated Oregon. “You reduce the fuel load — the forest fire fuel load — in the forest by thinning, but you also im prove the growth of the trees you leave behind,” Brad bury said, echo ing almost iden tical statements made by Smith. i ne candi dates also sup ported the the Bradbury wm hi I United States’ continued presence in Afghanistan, but Bradbury said the situation should serve as a warning against the resolution to attack Iraq, legisla tion Smith supported in the Senate. “What I’d say about Afghanistan is that it gives us a clue of the real pitfalls of taking unilateral, pre-emp tive action against Iraq,” Bradbury said. “I think we need to make a strong commitment working with our allies around the world to keep Afghanistan safe for democracy and not let it go back to all these regional warlords.” Smith agreed. “I think we should stay the course and help that desolate place to have a chance at democracy and decen cy,” he said. “For the first time in a decade, girls can go to school and women can walk free.” The candidates couldn’t agree on why col lege students may not be interested in politics. Smith said students can’t connect with government because they haven’t yet re auz.cu me 1111 pact of taxes. Smith “I think per haps (students) haven’t connected the withholdings on their paycheck to what they’re beingchaiged for gpvemment,” he said. “But as they leave home to go into the workplace, it will soon become apparent that there’s a price for all of our public institutions, and that price comes in the form of taxation.” Bradbury blamed waning student interest on low voter turnout. “As fewer and fewer students vote, those of us who seek elective office ob viously want to talk to the people who vote,” he said. “So I think the key thing for young people to do is to en gage in the process and start voting, and then, lo and behold, you’ll see the political system start to address issues that young people care about. ” Contact the senior news reporter atjanmontry@dailyemerald.com. 010795 STUDENTS • FACULTY • STAFF Flu Vaccination AT THE UO HEALTH CENTER Flu Vaccination for students Beginning October 14 Monday - Friday, 9 am - 4 pm All treatment areas in the University Health Center.
