• Portland, Observar
M artin Luther king, Jr. Special Edition
January 10,1990
Statement By Senator Packwood
WHAT’S IN
A NAME?
Portland’s Highland Elementary School
was renamed for the late Martin Luther
King in 1968 — without surveys or
other red tape.
1929 1968
Then the Portland School District, again responsive to
community desires, named the school’s adjacent Neighborhood
Facility to commemorate Dr. King and later named its newest
middle school to honor Harriet Tubman.
As we celebrate our National
Holiday in honor of Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr., it is important that
we take time to rededicate
ourselves to the principles for
which he stood. Peace and justice,
human and civil rights, are causes
which must be defended; which
must not be lost in the myriad,
transitory concerns of today.
Progress in these areas must
continue to be made. More than 20
years after his passing, Dr. King
stands as a symbol of hope to all
Americans that we can continue to
move forward in these areas which
form the basis of our freedom.

Names, statues and portraits are only symbolic, however. Is
there substance to match the dreams of the slain civil-rights
leader?
