“ 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
