LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR
Can't cry for lg.
To the Editor:
I would like to rebut some of
Van Rietmanns' remarks in
his letter shown in the
September 3 issue of the
Gazette. "
His statement on No. 4, that
low users of smaller amounts
of electricity will get a break,
is a bunch of baloney. Some
friends and I compared our
electric bills and though some
heat with wood, their bills
were considerably higher than
those that heat and have an all
electric home.
Having an all electric home
doesn't mean that they are in
a high income bracket either.
Some live where they can
because of their income and(
health. What do they do? Some
cannot heat otherwise as they
iray live in a mobile home.
(Ever see a mobile home go
up in flames? Not much
chance of an older person
escaping from it.)
I don't see many of the big
irrigators cutting their vaca
tions to the Bahamas, Hawaii
or some other place, but what
do the low income people cut?
Their food, clothing, the heat
that will keep them warm in
the winter and maybe a bit of
cool air from a miserable fan
Wouldn't it be nice
To the Editor:
Wouldn't it be nice if just
once an organization that
claims to be of the people and
for the people actually listen
ed to the everyday, small
consuming, average tax pay
ing people that make up the
majority but always have the
least powerful voices?
And wouldn't it be nice if
Weddings
Davis McElligott
Catherine McElligott, Seattle, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Dick McElligott, lone, became the bride of Amos Davis,
Tacoma, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Freeman, of Portland
on July 18, at 3 p.m. The ceremony was read by Father John
Cornelius at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in
Seattle.
The bride, given in marriage by her father, wore a gown
she had created of antique tussah silk, tied with a satin
ribbon sash. The lace bodice was buttoned with pearl buttons.
Her illusion veil fell from a matching Juliet cap trimmed
with tiny pearls. She carried a cascade bouquet of cream
roses, small coral lilies, baby's breath and ferns.
Matron of honor was Mary Pat Collins, sister of the bride,
of Nome, Alaska.
Best man was Laurence Lovery, of Portland, friend of the
groom.
Attendants were Leni Igaton and Benny Ross, both of
Portland, friends of the bride and groom.
Wedding music was played by Stewart Whitney on flute,
Michael Hill on piano, and Debbie Bishop was vocalist, all
friends of the bride and groom. Songs were: "With You I'm
Born Again", "For All We Know", "Always and Forever",
and "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face."
Following the ceremony, a reception and buffet dinner
were held at Seattle University library.
The three-tiered wedding cake, with cascades of miniature
carnations was baked and decorated by the bride, and was
served by her sister, Annie Hall, of Helena, Montana.
After a honeymoon in Victoria, B.C., the couple are at
home in Tacoma, where the groom is employed as a news
photographer for station KSTW.
Catherine is a registered nurse at Swedish Hospital in
Seattle.
Doherty Boyer
Valerie Boyer and Tony Doherty will be married Saturday,
September 12, in a 3 p.m. ceremony at the home of the brides
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mel Boyer, Lexington.
Friends and neighbors are cordially invited to attend.
Scssser
irrigators
in the summer. Real neat,
huh? Very few low income or
welfare persons have the
money to even get out of town,
let alone some port far away.
I can't see any big irrigator
going bankrupt with all the tax
cuts and ins and outs provided
for them on their income
taxes, but what do the folks on
the payroll have? I am sorry
but I can't cry for the big
farmers or irrigators either
one.
The big guys seem to have
the pull, but remember it is
the little guys that are of the
bigger percentage in the
Columbia Basin Co-op, at least
I thought it was called a co-op.
What has happened that the
little guys don't have any say
in the way the percentages of
the increases go. Don't we
count? If not, why not?
PGE electric users are
getting decreases, what is
wrong that BPA users don't
get the same.
How about some answers to
these and many more ques
tions that have been asked and
not answered.
A concerned and hurting
payer of killowatts,
Johanne Wood,
Heppner, Oregon 97836
these organizations that claim
to serve the people actually
acted to give those average
people the best break for a
change instead of what ever is
left over?
If a small organization like
Columbia Basin Electric Co
op, in small communities like
ours won't do this, there's no
hope for any of us anymore.
