Hanscll's Economy Plan We got an interesting bro chure, the "economy model" on School Finance and Tax Pro gram, a Hansell-Newbry pro proposed State change. Haven't got to study it in detail yet but I like the 57 percent support of operating costs of schools better in the Hansell plan than the 100 percent of the Governor's plan. Staff Hansell has been there before and he really squeezes my nickels and this what it takes. In summary the "economy plan" lists 11 goals: 1. New Tax base for schools. , 2. 57 percent School Support 3. 27 percent property tax relief 4. Provides Property Tax limitation 5. Avoids State-wide property tax (Hooray) 6. No major shift in taxes 7. Moderate increase in In come taxes (I'd rather go this way than Sales Tax. ) 8. Satisfies Seranno Case 9. Keeps Local Control ( It may be slipping but we still have some.( Encourages economy in school. Keeps pressure on State Budget. If you have a chance to see one of those brochures, study it. You'll find it interesting. 10. 11. Tops Clubs Soo Changes A big change to TOPS Clubs in eastern Oregon comes with the resignation of Mrs. Fern Chris tian, Pendleton, as area super visor for TOPS Club, Inc.

Business Meeting At Wagoa HoeH The business meeting will be held today at the Wagon Wheel. Final plans will be made for the annual Valentine Party to be given at the Nursing Home on Feb. 10. Mrs. Paul Jones and Mrs. Emile Groshens are co chairmen. Tom Sullivan Speaks Tom Sullivan, executive secretary of the Governors Commission on Youth was the guest speaker. The Commission of 22 people has been appointed to be alert for institutions that repress youth. They are unique in that they are not responsible to deliver a service to any youth. In a survey, it was noted that children who did not get into trouble was because they were able to find a socially accept able and gratifying role in life. Those who can't find this role, get into trouble. Of those employed in Oregon today, 11 percent are under 25 years old. This same age group is also the largest group that is unemploy ed. . Institutions, schools, churches and the laws, do they provide kids with a choice? Mr. Sullivan traced the case history of Geramy a boy from a split home who was finally banished from Damasch Hos pital. "He is a good institutional citizen. This is where he feels secure." On the streets of Portland, he is used. He passes drugs. "Some day he'll be killed because he knows too much." He asked Soroptimist mem bers to look at Morrow County with a cold hard look. What kind of an opportunity do we provide as a community? What makes you feel a part of this com munity? Are you allowing young people to have that same feeling?
