what is right, even as an oppressed to apply the lessons o f Dr. K ing. We

Oregonians w ill have an excel lent
chance soon to express something
about our State. Rather than telling
the rest o f the world that our state

our state shoelace is exactly sixty-
two and one-quarter inches long, we

know who we a re -w h at principles

what truths we uphold.
We can achieve ju s t that through
