I know these SDS mem bers, anarchists, and other ra d ica ls, modern-day- know -not hi ngs-who-att end- college. are no representative ol today's youth. They are a m inority of noise maker who can take the center scene because we disenfranchise the responsible 98 per cent, and there is no meaningful wav lor them to participate now.

Tom Bockelman, Salem To The Editor: In America the people are entitled to an opportunity every two years to express their approval or disapproval of the National Administration at the polls In presidential years they may do so by electing a president. This year they may do so only by their vote on Congressional Candidates. This approach is accepted by people in polities at all levels. This is the basis of my Campaign for Congress. It was because of my belief that the people of the First D istrict are entitled to such a choice that I agreed to become the D em ocratic Candidate for Congress. I am opposed to the Nixon- Agnew A dm onistration on every im p o rta n t N ational issue.

Vernon Cook Dear Editor: I strongly recommend a YES vote May 26 on measure No. 8 for a new tax base for Mt. Hood Community College. Mt Hood has fulfilled every commitment it has made to the public. It has been fiscally responsible and prudent. The tax rate for the building and operating of the college has not exceeded $2 per $1 .(MM) property value during the 5 years since the college began. Mt Hood's program is all that was asked and then some. Vocational-Technical offerings, job tra in in g and college transfer work have provided all people new opportunities for em ploym ent as w ell as education at a cost within the reach of any person or fam ily. The college has also had a m ajor economic impact on this region. The continuing income to the region from the college is one reason why this area has not suffered a m ajor economic recession. The college generates about 10 new dollars fo r every local d o lla r we contribute to its support. What better return could we ask? The new tax base w ill cost about 20 cents more per $1,000 in property value. That’s $3 on a $15,000 home in 1970-71, less than a restaurant meal or a couple of movie tickets. The new tax base w ill permit the college to continue its long- range, financial plan with a total tax rate of under $2. Let’s show a great young college that we support it and its record. A 20 cent investment w ill perm it our college to care for some 500 of our own students who w ill not be able to enter if the tax base is defeated. Mt. Hood’s modest proposal is endorsed by all of the newspapers and chambers of commerce in the district. It certainly has my en dorsem ent. As an area businessman and as a citizen concerned about educational opportunities for our young people, I believe Mt Hood is one of the best investments we have ever made. Let's not cripple the college, let’s help it! Stay Great with No. 8! R.J Frank, Jr., Chairman Citizens for Mt. Hood Com m unity College * * * A t the end o f 1968 there were 2,452 aircraft in U.S. scheduled air service. The total is expected to reach 3,480 by 1979.

Clear at 7:19 p.m. - Pos. 4 Mr. Rood's 41 years in School Administration in Clackamas County, the past 14 years as County School Superintendent, has given him an opportunity to become familiar with many of the social and economic problems with which the people are concerned. He has observed that foremost among these problems are property tax relief, air and water pollution, crime, drug abuse, conservation and social unrest. Present laws need to be strengthened and enforced and in some cases new legislation is needed. It is Mr. Rood's opinion that crime, student militancy, revolt and disrespec for law and order must be given immediate con sideration if a crisis is to be avoided in American Democracy. He believes that functions and principles of government, one 2 taught in the elementary schools, should be reinstated on this level. He has stated many times that other sources of revenue must be used to relieve property taxes and that the State must assume more of its responsibility in financing education. Another matter with which he is concerned is the tendency on the part of some governing bodies to disfranchise the individual of his right to decide issues by use of the ballot. Mr. Rood believes in the integrity of the individual and feels that matters affecting a person, either socially or economically should be decided, where practical, by a vote of the people, expecially where the levy of a tax is involved.

Many of these calls come from home owners who. for example, have sprayed their tomatoes with the in secticide Aldrin and right after they finished they noticed on tile label that it should not have been used. Ttie question comes now , are the tomatoes safe to eat'' 1 always make the point that if you are producing tomatoes for commercial sales, you have just put yourself out of business by the mis use of a chemical The response to this is usually. " I do not plan to sell an> but w ill they hurt me if I eat them ?" I have never been able to give a positive answer to this, hut do attempt to help the jM'ison decide if there is a possible danger. The question on mis use are usually alxiut insecticides. hut a gixid many inqures are concerned about herbicides and their residual effects I had a call from a gentleman who reported he had just sprayed his (’amelia lor scale, and finding some sloution left in his sprayer, decided to use the remainder on his shrubbery (or insects While he was putting his equipm ent away he discover«! that instead ol an insecticide he had accidently sprayed his landscape with the herbicide 2.4 D Calls of this type come too frequently It distresses me that materials as dangerous as SANDY FUNERAL HOME pesticides are mis used in such wavs and that care is not aken by those using them. In each ol these eases the accident did not result from the use of |x>sticicles; instead it resulted from mis use. If the lady had read the label and the gen tleman had been more careful in his mixing of pesticides, they would have never made such an e rro r. Both resulted from carelessness, largely because they did not take the tim e to read labels and understand the task they were trying to ac complish Every pesticide has a label which describes the necessary precautions you should follow. It gives the proper dosages the tim ing of die applications on food crops. You should never trust your memory on pesticides; reread the portion of the label that applies to the task. Refresh your memory as to what it can do and what precautions you should take in handling it. It only takes a few minutes to read the label on a container, hut it w ill be the most valuable few minutes you spend that da> It can mean the difference between increased or lost yield, contamination of a crop or actual injury to yourself or others. The label on the container is theonlx way the scienctist who developed the proper uses of the pesticide has of com municating with you Each one you see represents m illions of dollars and thousand of hours of pains taking research, whose purpose is to insure that the (M’slieide w ill be properly and safely used Remember, no pesticide is safe it it is carelessly handl«t or improperly used.
