Hodde Tells Need
For Developing
Irrigation Here
(Continued from page 1)
We must be careful that per
acre water costs don't go too
high. For example $."0 K-r acre
Would be too hitrh for most
crops.
JIo Me heads a small staff to
do a bit', complex (oh and th.it
is coordinating mot danism
si rl out all federal. M. He. and
private studies and proHisals
n I :( 1 in water and related
land. Annual cix miitures lor
liter studies are S? million bv
federal Hrcnclc-i. $2 3 million bv
tale and local, and more bv
private groups, lis a big region
covering most of five Males.
Hodde met with members of
the county court, port commis
sion and Heppner SWCD in a
session after the regular meet
ing. His knowledge and articu
lation was impressive. He coh
ered many ramifications of
bringing water to the area via
a thermal nuclear generator.
lie listed these obstacles;
1. People and power sale prof
Its are west of Cascades. Trans
mission lines can only carry so
much. (Private power companies
will build and own the plants).
i. Warm water henelits to
crops will be negligible.
But he was enthusiastic about
our advantages:
1. Large amounts of irrigabl
land.
2. A 1500 f-urface acre im
poundment could be located for
cooling, thereby eliminating ex
pen.se of building cooling tow
ers.
3. Fog or smog problems
would tie nearly non-existent.
4. Would bring needed irriga
Hon, induslry and growth to
needy and depressed area.
5. Would alleviate the urban
sprawl and congestion.
6. Would balance state growth
He made a big point of get
ting eastof-mountain growth
He mentioned that Governor Ev
ans of Washington and the new
Secretary of Agriculture have
expounded on the need to im
prove a floundering rural Amer
ican economy, Social, economic
and environmental development
makes it clear that regional
planning is a must.
A last point by the wise and
genial coordinator was that lo
cal interest and effort will have
to be great. People, politics and
competition make it a real chal
lenge. Morrow county has the
resources, but it's up to the de
termination of its people.

scoring punch but they don't
seem to be able to find any
backing.
Wahtonka's Eagles, snnrtini; u

Vernon A. Welo, social secur
it v district manager in La
Grande, announced publication
or a new edition of the pop
uiar booklet, "If You Become
Disabled."
Copies of the new booklet
which explains in clear and con
cise terms the latest changes in
the disability insurance pro
gram as well as the basic pro
visions of the law, may be ob
tainea oy calling, writing, or
visiting the La Grande social
security office at 1X02 4th Street
(P. O. Box 1027), he said.
The booklet may help cor
rect a number of misconceptions
about the disability insurance
program, Welo said.
Among these misconceptions
he noted the following:
1. That a person has to be
'permanently" disabled to qual
ify for payments. "I cannot em
phasize too strongly that this U
definitely not the case," Welo
said. "Payments may be made
to a person who is 'temporarily'
disabled it he Is not expected
to recover from his disability
for a year or more from the
ime it forced him to quit
work."
2. A person has to be totally
disabled in the sense that he is
bedridden or totaly paralyzed to
qualify for payments. "Again,
very definitely not so," Welo
said. "The worker merely must
have a physical or mental con
dition that prevents him from
doing any substantial gainful
work over a period of at least
12 months. There Is no neces
sity that he be drastically in
capacitated in order to receive
payments."
3. Since at least 5 years of
covered work In the 10-year per
iod before the disability began
are needed if payments are to
be made, the young disabled
worker who never had a chance
to work that long is left out in
the cold. "This has not been so
since the 1967 amendments to
the social security law." Welo
said. "As the booklet points out,
a worker becoming disabled be
fore age 24 now needs credit for
only li years of work in the
3-year period ending when his
disability begins. A worker 21
through 30 needs credit for hav
ing worked half the time be
tween 21 and the time he be
comes disabled. It is only when
he is 31 or older that the 5 years
are needed, but even then the
years need not be consecutive
or in units of full years."
Most disabled workers, he
said, hope to return to work.
Their social security benefits are
an income replacement to help
tide them over until they can
go sack to their old lobs or be
trained to do some other job.
When a worker applies for so
cial security disability insurance
benefits, he pointed out, he is
considered for rehabilitation
services by the vocational reha
bilitation agency in Salem, Ore
gon.
