The message also warned that the suspects “may stop at a ranch for cover.” Hodgen said public safety is his top priority, and at the time he wanted to alert peo- statement a little before noon Continued from 1A national economic and racial inequities, similar to today’s problems in Oregon. “Now, the answers to these questions are complicated — I know that — and no one per- son, least of all me, has all the answers,” Kitzhaber said. “But if we begin by asking the right questions, I know we can make progress, because an Oregon economy that moves some of us forward while leaving others behind dimin- ishes progress for everyone.” Kitzhaber, a Democrat who turns 68 in March, was sworn in by former Chief Justice Paul De Muniz for a fourth term. He was governor from 1995 to 2003, and after sitting out eight years, was elected to a record third term in 2010. He was re-elected Nov. 4 by just under half the 1.5 million votes cast. Kitzhaber was an emergen- cy-room physician when he was elected to the House from a Douglas County district in 1978. Two years later, he was elected to the Senate, where he served for 12 years, eight of them as Senate president. “As it turned out, I have spent most of my adult life in Corrections 40s snow ice 50s 60s cold front 70s 80s 90s 100s 110s high warm front stationary front low NATIONAL CITIES Today Albuquerque Atlanta Atlantic City Baltimore Billings Birmingham Boise Boston Charleston, SC Charleston, WV Chicago Cleveland Dallas Denver Detroit El Paso Fairbanks Fargo Honolulu Houston Indianapolis Jacksonville Kansas City Las Vegas Little Rock Los Angeles Hi 45 49 34 32 28 45 32 23 55 32 16 16 39 33 12 50 17 13 79 50 15 66 21 61 38 72 Lo 31 36 27 19 18 36 21 12 38 26 -1 -5 32 15 -5 33 8 5 63 39 0 51 15 40 24 52 W sn r pc pc s c s s r c s s c c s c sf pc s c s c pc s pc s Hi 43 50 40 31 36 49 34 26 50 35 16 16 42 39 14 48 10 25 80 46 16 58 31 59 40 74 Wed.

Hodgen said he appreciat- ed any concern his message touched off, but he was work- ing on the best information he had during what seemed like a critical incident. He also encouraged Neighborhood Watch members to check with the emergency dispatch - ever they have questions about an incident. that arose from a high-speed chase through the Palouse re- gion on Saturday. Idaho authorities have issued a separate arrest war- rant for Lee for investigation “I was inspired because of his passion and sincerity and his courage to speak from the heart and to say what needed to be said,” Kitzhaber said. “And from the moment he died in Los Angeles I knew I wanted to commit my life to public service.” During last week’s Oregon Business Summit, Kitzhaber embraced its goals of linking school with work, boosting the economies of rural com- munities, and modernizing transportation systems. “But even if we are suc- cessful in implementing these goals — all of which I support – we will not suc- ceed in giving all Oregonians a greater share of prosperity unless we have the courage and honesty to question one fundamental fact: the inher- ent contraction between a growing economy and the increasingly desperate plight of hundreds of thousands of our fellow Oregonians,” he said. “I think we can all agree that this situation is not only unfair — but that it serves to widen the disparities that di- vide us and makes it more dif- as a community.” Incorrect cutline information appeared in the top photo of “Children’s Rodeo receives do- nations” (Jan. 10, Page 2C). The photo shows Jennifer Sweet, Sandy Murphy, Linda Smith, Casey White-Zollman, Mike Ledbetter and Jill Ledbetter, and the check for $3,107 from the Let’er Buck Room to the Children’s Rodeo. A story in Saturday’s “Progress 2015” edition reported Hill Meat Company in Pend- leton has not made products with “unlabeled allergens,” such as peanuts, since late 2013. Hill Meat president Nicole Sorensen said labels listed any allergens, but the company then stopped using allergens altogether.

COMMERCIAL PRINTING Production Director Jake Duquette SHOOTING: Lee was arrested in Washington state Saturday that said the incident remained under investigation and there was no substan- tial information to indicate a threat to the public. Rowan KITZHABER: Will turn 68 years old in March this building and I love it very much,” he says. Earlier in the day, the Leg- islature organized for its next two years. All 60 representa- tives and 16 of the 30 senators took their oaths for new terms, Democrat Peter Courtney of Salem was chosen for a sev- enth two-year term as Senate president, and Democrat Tina Kotek of Portland for a sec- ond two-year term as House speaker. Democrats hold an 18-12 majority over Republicans in the Senate, and 35-25 in the House, their largest margins in six years. Kitzhaber said in advance that his address would draw upon the lessons he had learned in 36 years in politics. His parents were part of what has been dubbed the “Greatest Generation,” which went on to build the prosper- ous U.S. society that emerged after World War II. “I grew up in an era where people still believed in their government, and saw it as a vehicle through which they could come together and do amazing things for our whole society that individuals could not possibly do by them- selves,” he said. flurries 30s Yesterday’s National Extremes: (for the 48 contiguous states) High 83° in Pompano Beach, Fla.

Still, in spite of the tone of the text, he said the alert sys- tem for Neighborhood Watch members worked well. “If nothing else it was a good practice session,” he said. “It put some people on their toes.” Sheriff Terry Rowan said Friday that information emer- gency dispatchers received was “nothing close” to what happened.

Idaho au- thorities will seek the return of Lee to that state. Lee was arrested in Wash- ington state after he lost con- trol of his car and it crashed off U.S. Highway 195. Police believe that on Sat- urday he shot and killed his adoptive mother, landlord and a manager at a fast-food restaurant in Moscow that his parents frequented. Lee also is a suspect in the shooting of a Seattle man who survived with critical wounds. The shootings shocked the quiet town of 25,000 people, home to the Univer- sity of Idaho. Investigators searched Lee’s car and Moscow apart- ment late Saturday night, Duke said, and found two semi-automatic pistols, re- AP Photo/Moscow-Pullman Daily News, Geoff Crimmins Police officers talk outside while emergency medical technicians aid one of the shooting victims in Mos- cow, Idaho, on Saturday. the vehicle, along with a computer, he said.
