They are the greatest potential challenge to the misuse of authority by a central government in Washington and in the federal regional capitols when they are informed. Many are misdirected and confused. Three informative and factual books that have been shedding much light on this power of control over America are, "The Naked Capitalist," "Wake Up America and "None Dare Call it Conspiracy." For facts behind this national crisis, anyone can write for a free copy of, "NARC Plan programmed America bv 1985," from Committee to Restore the Constitution, 990 Savings Bldg., Ft. Collins, Colorado, 80521. CARLM. MARQUARDT, Lexington. EDITOR: The Department of Revenue setting the standards for farm use values is nothing new. They have always supplied every county with the interest rate to be used in capitalizing net income. The rate is a large factor in the computation. The Department of Revenue has been providing statutes for the counties to follow in hopes for uniformity since 1909. They audit the counties, make inventory checks on personal property, set standards for market value appraisals, ratio studies, order increases if an area is valued low according to the ratio study, set the standards for mapping and account numbers. They appraise the public utilities, industrial properties and, in Western Oregon, the timber and timber land. They supply a methods manual and the cost factor for guide lines in appraising buildings and mobile homes. They help with legal advice in all county offices. The counties do make many decisions, but this farm use land value difference between Oregon counties and the problems it could have created is a definite indication of the need for uniformity. I'm glad despite the fact it has helped cause a write-in campaign against me that we chose to use the methods used by other counties in figuring farm use values. Otherwise Morrow County could be faced with the time and expense of making a change also. While there was never any argument between the counties, it was a matter of a problem existing and a decision had to be made. It was a hard one to make, and Mr. John Lobdell, director, Department of Revenue, and the attorneys for the state gave tneir tuil consideration to all matters Involved. The decision will make some land classes of tillable land in Umatilla County increase as much as 55 percent. JOYCE BERGSTROM, Assessor. v ,n Joe A.

Al Ullman by Mayor Jerry Sweeney urging his support for the Willow Creek Dam which passed the Senate last week: DEAR SIR: This letter is written in an attempt to re-emphasize the need for speedy approval of the Willow Creek Dam Pro ject, and to ask for your support in this endeavor. As we have told you In past correspondence, we have a critical water shortage in the City of Heppner, and have had building restrictions placed on us by the Oregon State Health Division because of this short age. We have prepared a plan of proposed improvements, passed a $450,000.00 bond election, sold the bonds, and have the money in the bank. We have partially completed certain portions of the water improvement project. We now need to complete our plan of improvements in order for our town to grow, Because of the fact that two portions of the improvement project, our transmission line and our major reservoir, lie directly in the path of the proposed dam, we are hesitant to improve them at this time. We feel it would be foolish, and a waste of the taxpayers money, to improve these facilities this year, and then have the Corp of Engineers come along next year and relocate these new facilities. It would be much more logical to relocate and Improve these facilities at the same time. This is why we need your support. We are ready to move, and are awaiting con gressional approval of the reauthorization of the Willow Creek Project. The dam Itself Is obviously badly needed. But if authorization of the project occurs within the next two months, the additional benefit of cost sharing, with an estimated savings of about $400,000.00 to taxpayers, can be realized by cost sharing on our water system improve ment project. Please help us in any y, you can. We need your support for speedy approval of this project. JERRY SWEENEY, Mayor City of Heppner.

"Cities are renewing fran chises for a period of from 3-5 years only, rather than the 20-30 year franchise granted by the city," he said. Progress of Well 3 is stymied because the con tractor has lost priority for the shaft to the motor and has been delayed repeatedly. One time extension was granted for a 15-day period and another has been granted for another 15 days, the latter to expire soon.
