HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES. TO THE EDITOR To the Editor: Shouting is transitory; results count. So far as our 52nd legislative session is concerned the shout ing has been conspicuous but, so far, results have been few. Our legislators have consum ed much time with less accomp lishments than those attained in the two previous sessions of which I have an intimate know ledge. There will be those who will say sour grapes but, believe me, I'm viewing this session with out bias. In my opinion this assembly has taken more time and, at a greater cost, to arrive at a sem blance of accomplishment than was necessary. Perhaps there is much Justifi cation in the criticism that too many legislators are spending their time carping at the activ uioo nf othors Dartv fieht against party and the inescap able knowledge that too many take advantage of free postage, secretarial help and all the other things a solon falls heir to. Of course, these advantages make it easier to mow down those in disfavor. I enjoyed immensely your last issue. Letters and news stories pertaining to Boardman were especially appreciated. It has been beyond me to un derstand the criticism directed at the Boardman picture. It would appear to me that getting the Boardman project would rank (not so striking, of course) with our great land purchases from France and the purchase of Alaska from Russia. It Is not, In my judgement, too Important that Boeing develop projects at the site. The thing that is vital is that we now have the location one of the prime Industrial sites in the west. Because of the very nature of the location it will probably re main one of the few smog free areas. Transportation facilities are a tremendous advantage. Only political trickery could prevent us from capitalizing on ' Am I Iver Glad Tnat I Bought Somt Hail Insurant! AND IT'S TIME TO SEE US ABOUT YOUR POLICY . . . RIGHT NOWI C. A. ElUGGLES AGENCY P. O.
