In America the people are

National Administration at the

may do so by electing a

do so only by their vote on
Congressional Candidates. This
approach is accepted by people

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

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.

I receive mans calls asking
.ibout the effects ol pesticides
which have been incorrectly
applied. 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

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

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.
