This is not a p o s s ib ility , it is in e v ita b le . Hired us floor manager in a de partment store, Phyllis asked where she should leave her new fur coat during working hours. Since there were no more lockers available. she was told to leave the coat in a corridor closet. A few days later, the coat was stolen from the closet. The store denied any responsibility for the loss, but Phyllis— unconvinced— took the matter to court. A t the hearing, the company said it had never guaranteed its employees against theft. But it seems the closet had neither lock nor guard. Finding a lack of rea sonable care, the court said the company would have to make good the loss.

I think it appropriate to point out that the criminal conduct in the last campaign was, in fact, limited to those who super vised the Committee to Re Elect the President. During the course of his speech the President spoke of campaign excesses and, in a burst reminiscent of the old Nixon, handed down an indictment of, and I use his words, “both of our great parties” for “shady tactics As co-chairm an of the M i Govern effort in Oregon last fall, as a member of the Democratic Party, and as a political officeholder, I deeply r sent this clumsy attempt to blame the entire political system for the criminal acts of certain members of the W hite House staff. The thousands of A m eri cans who regard politics as a w o rth y profession and a public office as a public trust have equal reason to resent this gratuitous slur. For almost a year we have asked the truth about W ater gate and the associated poli tical espionage. We have asked for the truth not only because our party was the victim of the crime, but also because the entire political process is the victim of such conduct. To allow this statement to go unanswered would be an insult to the thousands of Oregonians who worked so hard last fall to expose and reject the W atergate men tality. The President must allow a full and fair investigation of the mess by someone other than a political crony. I f we do not air the truth now. our system of govern ment may not survive. “Checkers I I ” was simply an attempt to justify amoral political conduct, and was not the explanation we deserve. lENOW'S .F O R BRANDS you m iiT i m i » Maniaetao \ 234-9351 a r r i* « » LW.Tbird ewrf Merrieee M bi «tanto MUM I E M M • «tao «77110 • Xowxx Dwtwi o /O o to o i.tcv R.

In another case, also involving a stolen eoat, the clothes closet was within a locked enclosure to which only employees had access.
