Vietnam Serviceman Speaks to Students Marine Lance Corporal Frank Robinson, former student of the Heppner schools, who Is home from Vietnam for a 30-day leave, spoke last Thursday to the 8th grade social studies classes about his experiences In Vietnam and of conditions among the people there. Cpl. Robinson spent most of three periods In answering questions addressed to him by students. He felt they could gain more Information by asking specific Questions than If he spent the time lecturing. And, Incidentally, he stated that he was mora fearful of lecturing to 20 8th erade students than he would be of fighting a compa ny of the Viet Cong. Student reception was excel lent, and classes were pleased to receive the first-hand Infor mation from the serviceman, Cpl. Robinson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Robinson, will leave later this month to return to Vietnam for another six months of duty. He feels that the Unit ed States Is doing the right thing In helping the South Vi etnamese maintain their Inde pendence, and avers that this seems to be the concensus of opinion among- the American fighting men in that country. Tired of Taxes? Public Services Depend on Them By MAHJORIE WILCOZEN Good or evil perhaps they are a little of both. Maybe when that tax payment Is due, they are somewhat evil. They should be thought of as good when you think of the services we re ceive from the use of the tax monies, Have you ever thought how much It would cost for private Individuals to build and main tain the streets, and highways we drive over every day? Or for the people with children In school to pay for private Instruc tion? These are but two of the many, many public services paid for with your taxes. One more of the service cate gories that most people don'l connect with public services is public health and sanitation. They Include protection against communicable disease through immunization or quarantine at little direct cost to the recipient; Inspection and regulation of food and drugs: provision of wa ter supply and waste disposal systems; 'pollution control; and hospital and Invalid care. What would our way of life be like without these and oth er public services? Would we be better or worse off? Do we need to change the mix have more of some, less of others? These are among questions to ponder as you think about what is good and what is bad about taxes. There Is much controversy In Salem these davs over taxefr what kind how much who pays etc. Have you thought what you would do about taxes If you could? There are many things we can do as individuals and as groups about what we have In the way of public ser vices and taxes, although none are easy. Among them are: 1. Be Informed. Know what we have, how we obtained the tax system we have, and how the system works. Do you know how your property Is appraised and assessed for property tax purposes? Do you know why It Is assessed, who Is responsible, and what you can do about the value placed on it? Do you know what property is exempt and why 7 Do you know how funds are appropriated? How the property tax Is determined? How budg ets are developed and how they affect the services we have and the taxes we pay? Do you know how the laws can be changed? 2. Act Wisely. Act from infor mation, not from fear. With knowledge of what we have and why, we may become better sat Isfled and more Inclined to ac cept what we have. Or we may be able to Identify problems and work for constructive chan ges more effectively. 3. Identify alternatives. Once you have Identified alternatives to our tax system, study the likely consequences. 4. Work with others. Look for other people who feel the same way you do about public serv ices and taxes. Determine the position to be taken. 5. Plan strategy. Know who Influences decisions and when and where decisions are made. 6. Take action. Express your viewpoint. Vote. Discuss the sit uation with budgetmakers. Be willing to compromise. Be pa tient but perslsten.t If you would like more think ing materials, attend the Exten sion Unit Lesson for February In your area where some think ing Items will be discussed. Or ask at the County Extension of fice for fact sheets, "Lets Think About Taxes and Public Serv ices" and "Lets Think About Taxes and Our Choices."
