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.

¡The following is a state­
ment by Oregon State T rea­
surer Jim Redden regarding
President Nixon's statement
on the W atergate affair.|
Now that "Checkers II" is
history and the President is
well into Crisis *7. 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.
