District 1 is comprised of all of Clatsop and Columbia counties, and part of Washington County. “One of the major reasons I’m running is to provide our area with more effective representation in the Oregon Senate. It was quite clear to those who watchéd the 1981 Legislature that the Senate was up to its knées with politicians, people whose main interest was in playing petty partisan games. Time and again, they put politics before people,” Bugas said.* “A good example is when they refused to pass a reform of Oregon’s land use laws. The House had to take the lead and practically shove it down the Senate’s throat.” Bugas is currently serving his third term in the Oregon House, first elected in 1976. He has served on the powerful House Judiciary Committee and the Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee since his first term in 1977. In the 1979 and 1981 session, he also served on the leadership committee of the House, Legislative Rules and Operations. “Without question, the biggest issues in this election year will be jobs and the economy. Too many people in the Legislature talk a good game about how they are going to fight to provide more jobs. And yet little is done,”' Bugas said. “The last Legislature didn’t do much to help out dur economy, and yet that is the cause of most of this state’s problems. We can’t afford to ignore what is at the root of our problems, a stumbling economy, much longer.” Bugas said he would advocate using such incentives as tax credits to encourage business to expand and restricting the increasing flow of bureaucratic rules and regulations which are nothing more than stumbling blocks for small businesses or people who want to start a business. “In my opinion, Oregon’s economy is dangerously close to the edge of disaster. The Legislature in the next session can pull it off that ledge or push it over. I just think people in Columbia, Clatsop and Washington counties need a stronger voice in the Senate. We must put a breath of life back into our economy and put Oregonians back to work,” Bugas said. Thanks extended We would like to take this opportunity to thank our many friends and neighbors for the many calls, cards and words of understanding at the passing of my dear wife and mother, Evelyn Gibson. We also thank you . for the contributions we received which will be used in our church building program in her name. We Would also like to thank the ladies of the Branch Relief Society for the music furnished at the funeral service. Also for the wonderful lunch served after the services. May God bless each one of you.

PAPER ROLLING - Every Day Board calls for Hanlon's resignation Seniors schedule auction To the Editor: To Senator Hanlon; The Mist Birkenfeld Fire , District at their September 8, 1981 meeting, voted in majority after due consideration, to ask you to resign. We feel that you have failed to meet your moral obligation, and failed miserably to represent us. Also, you deliberately let petty politics get in the way of the need of your district, and in the corner of your file on HB 2620 you had written the word KILL. We know nothing of your dislikes for Representatives Magruder and Bugas, but that should not get in the way of good government. Consequently, because of your actions, we are unable to feel your need for the community. Mist-Birkenfeld Rural Fire Protection District Board of Directors: Arthur C. Laubach, Chairman Larry Oblack, Vice-Chairman Fred W. Busch, Sec.-Treasurer Amos D. Cutright Norman C. Hansen The County Council of Senior Citizens is having an auction sale at the VFW Hall in St. Helens on October 17, beginning at 10 am. The money earned is used throughout the county for emergency medicine or food for senior citizens. A drastic •decision for. a senior oh a fixed income is whether to buy food or medicine, sometimes there being too little money to buy both. The senior advocate in each area has the information and the check book to help those who need this help. Since we know the need exists we raise several hundred dollars every year for this purpose, helping our neighbors through a bad time. Mr. Ishmael, a professional auctioneer,, will volunteer his time to auction off the donated articles. We need donations of good usable items to sell. If you have any get in touch with the senior advocate or your senior citizen’s center. And we need people to come and see what is on sale, let us help our neighbor this winter by helping now. For more information get in touch with the senior center in your area. Cold weather creates fire hazards The coming months of cold weather áre expected to create new fire hazards related to heating equipment. This was the leading cause of fire in Oregon last year, and 70 percent of those were caused by wood heating appliances. Oregonians can best protect their family from fire by observing a few simple fire prevention practices. MEMBER Oregon Newspaper Publishers Association IIIIIIIIIM 1 ■ Hopkins joins honor society Persons planning to purchase a wood heater are encouraged to choose one that carries a listing by a recognized testing agency, and to be sure the entire installation is done according to manufacturer’s instructions. Chimneys should be inspected semi-annually, and buildups of creosote removed to reduce the chance of a dangerous chimney fire. Proper installation and maintenance of smoke detectors could reduce Oregon’s residential fire deaths by an estimated 79 percent. Forced air furnaces should be serviced annually for safe, efficient operation. Residential fires can be reduced by the same factors that cause them—men, women and children.
