cording to energy advisors,
Ullman said he is working to
pass the energy bill in

"no reason to see this develop
into a recession."

County Extension Agent
Harold Kerr said the wheat
farmers and ranchers might
need help controling the
grasshopper problem next
spring.
"We certainly ought to
resolve that problem by next
spring," the Congressman
responded.
Orville Cutsforth, who has
had Ullman on one of his
elk-hunting parties, urged the
Congressman to include the
Hell's Half Acre in the lands to
be designated as wilderness
under the RARE II legislation.
Cutsforth was asked to bring
one of the administrative
aides up to date on the issue.

Mrs. Alice Bunch and Ed

On the SALT II Treaty, the
Senator hasn't decided which
way to vote and says the
undecided Senators led by
Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Georgia,
would decide the outcome.
The debate should last six to
eight weeks with Sen. Henry
Jackson-D, Wash, leading the
opponents and Sen. Frank
Church D-Idaho, leading the
proponents.
Asked as a Republican who
he felt was the frontrunner in
the 1980 bid for the Republican
nomination for President,
Packwood said "Ronald Rea
gan" but feels Sen. Howard
Baker will win the nomina
tion. "Will Ted Kennedy run in
1980?"
"I don't think he will run in
1980, though there is increas
ing pressure on him," Pack
wood replied, but he did not
fully rule out a run at the
Presidency should Carter ap
pear weak at convention time.
Packwood said passage of
the Willow Creek Dam project
is almost assured with accept
ance by the House-Senate
Conference Committee. He
said the Senate vote would
be a pro forma act Ly
individual Senators and he
promised to support the $3.2
million appropriation.
On a campaign swing
through most of Eastern

Canyon Wilderness Area

servation years Ago and
planned to return Tuesday to a
visit of the Coal-Fired Plant at
Boardman at 10:30 a.m.

time schedule is met. Arriving,
five minutes late at the
Gazette-Times office, he apologized.
