SANDY, OREGON, THURSDAY, APRIL 15, 1971
More Voting Polls Needed
More polling places are needed for
the May 3 Sandy Union High School
budget levy election.
As it now stands, according to
school officials, no polls are placed in
the outlying grade school districts
which feed into the high school
district. Instead the people are forced
to come to Sandy to take advantage of
their right to vote.
To us this does not make any sense
at all. Why should a person be made
to go to two places to vote on his
school levies. He already is going to
his local grade school to vote on its
levy on that day.
It would not take much more for the
high school district to set up voting
apparatus at these same schools and
enable the voter to vote on both levies
at once.
We feel that the high school district
should make sure polls are placed at
the area schools so that the voter will
be able to do his right to vote without
having to make an extra effort.
We are sure that this would be
a p p re cia te d by the high school
district voters and that there would be
a better turnout for the school elec­
tion.
Where Your Tax M oney Goes
When you gulped, grabbed your
pen, and signed your tax return this
week, did you wonder where the
money goes?
If you said “ Viet-Nam” , you cer­
tainly were right, but that isn’t the
only place. The 14 major categories of
federal spending proposed in the
budget for fiscal 1972 break down like
this:
National defense—$77.5 billion
Income security—$60.7 billion
Interest—$19.7 billion
Health—$16.0 billion
Commerce and transportation—
$10.9 billion
Veterans—$10.6 billion
Education and manpower—$8.8
billion
Agriculture—$5.8 billion
General government—$5.0 billion
Housing—$4.5 billion
Natural resources—$4.2 billion
Revenue sharing—$4.0 billion
International affairs—$4.0 billion
Space—$3.2 billion
When listed this way, some in­
teresting figures emerge. Space, for
in stan ce,
has
been
roundly
criticized,yet is last among the 14
major items, It is quite insignificant
when compared with the military
expenses or those for welfare.
International affairs also ranks low
on the list and, we hasten to add, also
ranks pretty low in results. Some of
that military money might better be
spent here.
Interest on the national debit is
truly fearsome—more, for instance,
than housing, a g ric u tlu re and
education combined.
If we were a Congressman and
could change some of the priorities,
we’d zero in on defense and the so-
called income security sectors. Some
of the money spent there might well
be used elsewhere.
The Oregon Trail
Oregon in general and Gov. Tom
McCall in particular have logged a lot
of mileage over the way we handle
tourists . . . “ Come here to visit but
for heaven’s sake, not to live.”
Oregon has been featured in a New
York Times article, has been men­
tioned on television, and in some
national magazines. Only maybe
we’re overplaying our hand. A recent
editorial in the Christian Science
Monitor concluded:
“Come to think of it, sounds like a
fine place to live. Pack your bags,
kids. We’re moving to Oregon.”
Actually, there probably isn’t any
legal way we can keep people out.
People in our country generally have
budget
the right to travel anywhere they wish
and live anyplace they desire.
But if people are going to move to a
better climate—Oregon, say—they
may well bring their own problems
with them. Unplanned migration may
lead to new problems.
Government may help to control
population shifts by subsidizing new
industries in areas, for instance,
where agriculture may be on the way
out. But these are at best only tem ­
porary palliatives.
About the best we can say of the
present situation is that people—with
Oregon in the lead—are at least
beginning to see the perils of helter-
skelter migration.
