The Mustangs won the game on their home court. Redden and SB State Treasurer Jim Red den, speaking today hefore the Oregon State Police graduat ing class, lashed out at Senate Bill 1, now before the U.S. Senate, as containing the "seeds of distrust and .dissen sion." Redden said the 753 page document contained needed reforms to the federal crimi nal system but strongly criti cized the so-called "Erlich man" clause as the "final straw." The "Erlichman" clause, provides that if a public official breaks the law he can have a blanket defense in court by proving that the "illegal conduct" was the NEW COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT HELPS Less than a month ago a two-way radio was installed at the Condon office of Columbia , Basin Electric Coop, and at the residence of Joe Nix. Lineman Agent in Condon. During the recent "frost" conditions in the Condon area on Dec. 20-21 the new instal lation really paid off accord ing to Coop, manager. David Harrison. The new radio saved a lot of outage time he said. Conlact with the Condon crews from the Condon office saves much time in problems relaying from Heppner as previously was the practice. The new radio antenna is on top of the Condon Grain Growers elevator. Now the crew s can be reached at Fossil and in most every area around Condon. Formerly there were several "dead' spots.

S, 1 fi 1 result of a "belief" that such action was "required or au thorized" by a government agency, Redden explained. "Let's read that section like the public will and like the public should: if you're in government, you can break the law and get away with it." It's that outrageous," Redden said. Redden called on Oregon's congressional representatives to strip the criminal law reform bill of any such dangerous clause. "We must convince the public that we in public service seek no special treatment and ask no special favor.

Gerding, chairman of Oregonians for Nuclear Safeguards, said, "Congress once again has denied full insurance protec tion to the public in the event of a nuclear power plant acci dent." He was responding to recent defeats of Congres sional bills in both the House and Senate which would have amended the Price Anderson Insurance Act. This federal insurance Act limits the liabi lity of the nuclear industry to $560 million in the event of aa accident at a nuclear power plant. The government now carries $435 million of this coverage. The amendments would have waived the $560 million limit and assured full protection to the public in the event of an accident. Dr. Gerding said, "These defeats once again demon strate that the nuclear power industry continues to be subsi dized by the U.S. Government.

The people of Oregon should know that the private insurance companies and the nuclear power industry are not bearing the full risks of an accident, and neither should we." "However," Dr. Gerding said, "I am pleased that Oregon's two senators re sponded to growing public concern in Oregon and voted in favor of the Senate amend ment which would have pro vided greater insurance pro tection for the public."
