Margaret paid some political price. She acts like she knows all about civil rights and human rights, but she demonstrated that she isn’ t very aw are.” LaGuardia said the compromise was necessary under the circum stances. “ W e had to have three votes. W ithout Strachan, we wouldn’ t have had three. . . It was a limited victory for M H R C . We found out there’s not a lot o f regard M ilto n feels M H R C lost some credibility because it was too quick to compromise and give Strachan a way out without a full public discussion and without a thorough discussion by the entire City Council. “I am extremely disappointed. I don’t believe M H R C had the right to compromise on civil rights. They are the only public body dedicated to protecting human rights and they can’t bargain away that responsibility.” LaG uardia said the support group was an important influence in AU T O W r e c k R e b u ild in g U m b o d y F ra m e S tre n g th e n in g regaining part o f the M H R C budget.

O n Sept. 24. 1982. a Hatch worker suffered a broken shoulder, bruises and lacerations when she was run over by the air compressor upon which she was riding while working as a flagger on a project near Sweet Home. Hatch was cited for not providing adequate safety instruction and supervision. W oodhull said that Hatch is up against " a host o f problems” making for especially tough w ork ing conditions on the Banfield project: heavy traffic, a narrow right o f way, and buildings abutting the freeway. “ I don’ t think his rec- 1ft N M o r r l a S t P o r t l a n d O r e g o n 9 72 77 T e le e p ^ h o n e 2 8 3 2 2 1 9 P o r tla n d what we have lost. And the loss is great. P R M C C L IN IC S ta n N ic h o ls o n 6842 N E U m on A ven u e C $470 per year; for those with more than $10,000 income, the cuts will average $280 per year. And where have the cuts been? Student loans, which have been instrumental in opening the doors o f higher education to those with lower incomes, were cut 27 per cent and compensatory education for disad vantaged children was cut 17 per cent. That from an Adm inistration that has suddenly become a great " frie n d " o f education. Child nutrition programs were cut 28 per cent, while Food Stamps and Aid to Families with Dependent Children were both cut 13 per cent. Now the Adm inistration finds it necessary to establish a task force to investigate why there is hunger in our country. Employment and jo b training programs were cut 35 per cent, some $25 billion. Yet, the country faces one o f its greatest tasks in retraining workers for the changing economy. The current Aminist ration made great promises when coming into office. One would have hoped that an assessment o f federal spending for social services after two years would be a measure o f what we have gained. Instead, it is a measure o f It is no secret that the present Administration has gone at the social service budget with a hatchet (while bloating military spending) in its attempts to reduce deficits. W hile it has failed to control the debt, the Administration has managed to cut spending for vital human resource programs. But the burden o f those cuts has not been equally borne. A new study by the non-partisan Congressional Budget O ffice bears this out; it provides the cold, hard numbers that outline the human costs. 1 would like to share some o f the findings o f this study with you. The study, which looked at spending in 26 social service programs such as student loans, welfare, health services and job training, found that spending for these programs will decrease $110 billion in fiscal years 1982-1985 because o f changes adopted 1981- 1983. Compare this to the fact that, during the same period, spending for defesne will rise by 590 billion. The result o f these cuts is that lower-income families are losing significant amounts o f benefits — much more than other income groups. For a fam ily with less than $10,000 in annual income, the average reduction o f benefits will be pharm acy P a l j e A r 4* O f L o c a l B u \ i n c M C ‘ i T h a t A r c H e l p i n g B u i l d A B e t t e r .
