Thvr» April 22 I9S2 (Sec I) SANDY (Ore ) POST— J Candidate draws outline for jobs D e m o c r a ts rap S m ith r e c o r d by DAN DILLON by DAN DILLON “ San d y's p ro b lem s a r e n ’t isolated This district is made up of sm all towns and farm s. It's remarkably homogeneous, given the size of the district." Starkovich said W hen S te v e S ta r k o v ic h , Democratic candidate for Senate Diatrict 14, announced his can didacy, he said the main campaign issue would be jobs for Oregonians Since that time, the 27-year-old Canby warehouseman has spent a lot of time thinking about how new businesses can be attracted to the state to provide those jobs ‘The people in the district want to see the economy diversify,” Starkovich told The Post this week Attracting those new industries into a district that is traditionally based on a forest products and agricultural economy provides a challenge, but Starkovich sees a variety of enhancements to make the area more attra c tiv e to businesses looking to relocate or expand He favors a state bank that could help community development pro jects. financed by general fund revenues and providing lower interest loans Starkovich likes the idea of tax incentives for small businesses, but not necessarily for bigger businesses The candidate endorses an in dustrial revenue bond program for businesses that create jobs The business wants a loan, he said, and Steve Starkovich a bank will give it at the prime rate plus a bit more The state treasury could give a tax incentive or eliminate taxes, provided the bank offers lower rates to its small business customers Tourism should be recognized as an industry by the state,” Starkovich said. That doesn't necessarily mean creating a Department of Tourism, F said More simply, it means promoting the state "Sandy could benefit from this,” he feels, “ because it's on a major east west highway. At 5.000 square miles, it is the largest district in western Oregon Attracting new business and in dustry means being able to provide a work force A great many people in the 14th district have one skill that they have applied throughout their life, Starkovich said. “That's why community college education is so important ” People who want to better themselves can go back and learn a new marketable skill, he said "Higher education shows a com mitment that turns around in sub tle ways" and is an attractive magnet for moving businesses. A n o th er c o n s id e ra tio n fo r business attraction is land use. Starkovich feels the permit pro cess should be a "o n e s to p process” instead of the maze of bureaucracy it can be, but he doesn’t deny the importance of land-use planning "Anyone who denies the need of land-use planning is being short sighted.” he said "Voters have said on three suc cessive elections that they want planning," Starkovich added Democratic candidates for Oregon s 5th Congres s lona I seat had little good to say about Denny Smith, R -O re ., who c u rre n tly represents the 2nd District. Sunday when they stopped at a forum for party can didates’ in Sandy Larry Gray, an Oregon City man who operated a Washington, D C ., radio news bureau before enter ing politics, chastised Smith as a “ fair weather friend of seniors" for his position on the Social Security issue Speaking first, Gray took aim at defense spending and the Northwest Power Bill. He called the defense budget "the primary place where the (federal) budget can be cut," citing five weapons he believes the United States can get along without. If elected to Congress, Gray promised to work for the repeal of the Northwest Power Bill or, at the very least, work for changes in it that would further conser vation. As a fo rm e r “ paid observer ‘ of the scene at Capitol Hill, Gray said he has the ability to com municate with the people of the Northwest and let them know what the Congress is doing He encouraged tax incen tives to wage earners who hold back on hourly wage demands and businesses who have reduced prices He warned that the in centives should not be across the board, because there is no guarantee what some larger companies would do with the addi tional funds. S ta te Sen. R u th McFarland, of Boring, told the small gathering that S m ith d eserves some credit. “ He has kept his cam paign promise,” she said. "He said he wanted to be a congressman in the worst way and he has been a con gressman in the worst w ay.” M c F a rla n d contended that the wrong things hav'' been cut in the fede al budget She cautioned that m ilita ry spending isn't necessarily the same thing as defense spending “ We probably can’t beat our sw ords into plowshares.” she said, but added that Congress could quit handing a "blank check” to the Pentagon tax roll-back next year, but said she can’t see taking money and creating a larger deficit with the roll back or giving breaks to those who are best able to pay The candidates' forum which also featured county races was organized by C a ro ly n S m ith of Rhododendron, a candidate for House District 23 Smith expressed her con cern for land-use matters, environmental issues and cutbacks in human ser vices “ I ’m concerned about the future environ ment for our children, " she said D a le H a r la n , of Milwaukie, a candidate for Clackamas County Com missioner. contended that incumbent Stan Skoko is "out of touch with the times." He said the County needs long-range industrial planning to attract new business She said that with the depressed job market, the nation needs more re training and vocational education A Mt. Hood C o m m u n ity C o llege biological sciences instruc tor, M cFarland praised Oregon's system of voca tional education and com munity colleges. She cautioned that the u n e m p lo ym en t figu res bandied about could be worse than they appear because they don’t reflect the self-employed who aren’t working and under employment. “Oregon is worse off than people perceive.” she said McFarland said there needs to be an additional ^National Keeping posted: Scouts set registration, paper drive THURSDAY.
