Ulman 9s
Willingness to sail against the wind should
be looked upon as a political virtue. But it has
threatened to swamp Al Ullman, Oregon's
Democratic congressman from the Second
District who is in a tough race against an
untried and untested Republican opponent,
Denny Smith.
The wind that Ullman turned into was the
value-added tax, a device like a hidden sales
tax that many leaders in Congress have
seriously considered as a way to find funds to
reduce the Social Security burdens, certain to
grow worse in the years ahead, and as a
responsible way to reduce the income tax
without cutting national security needs or
making inflation worse.
The Oregonian has been skeptical of the
tax, feeling there is no practical way to
guarantee that it always will be used to offset
the other taxes. While we trust Ullman to do
what he says he will, the same confidence is
' not lodged in future members of Congress.
Ullman has dropped the tax plan,
declaring, "As far as I am concerned, that
issue (VAT) is dead." He said the
value-added tax in "not acceptable to the
country or to Oregon."
Had Ullman not searched for a means of
bolstering Social Security, he would be in a lot
less political trouble. A flaming liberal, Steve
Anderson, a Salem lawyer, pushed the
veteran congressman hard in the Democratic
primary, getting 45 percent of the vote to
Ullman's 55 percent.
But it is hard to imagine large numbers of
these voters shifting to Denny Smith, who at
age 42 is more conservative than some
politicians become at the age of four score
and 10. Smith has no experience in public
service, local, state or national.
The kind of clout that Ullman commands as
chairman of the House Ways and Means
Committee is the envy of the other 49 states.
Only Washington can match it, in the Senate
side with Senators Henry Jackson and
Warren Magnuson.
Since Ullman, long a fiscal protege of Rep.
Wilbur Mills, succeeded to the Mills post in
1974, he has been in the forefront of efforts to
balance the budget, reform the income tax
and otherwise bring greater fiscal conservat
ism to the nation's tax system. His record
would look better if he didn't cooperate so
much. He has voted for spending bills certain
to pass in order to win their sponsor's aid for
his own projects, most of them vital to his
district of Eastern Oregon and a portion of
the Willamette Valley.
Smith has not made many proposals he
would have any chance of getting approved if
he were elected, whereas Ullman would
continue to fight as a national leader for a
sound Social Security System, aid for
Oregon's lumber and cattle industries and
jcontinued efforts to support recreational and
wildlife areas, such as Hells Canyon and the
Minam Wilderness, while looking after
countless small services that only a
congressman with real influence can perform
for the citizens of Oregon.
One of the most effective Oregon
congressmen in modern times, Wendell
Wyatt, a Republican, has endorsed Al
Ullman. Wyatt understands the importance
of seniority in Congress and knows firsthand
of its great value to the state. Voters should
