David and April Sykes, Publishers Letters to the Editor Thank you for printing letter To the editor: Thank You for printing Alo ha DeSpairis inspirational let ter of testimony to the public of what Pastor John Maas' residence in Heppner has meant to her, Bob, and their families. As Aloha put it so well, this is what religion is all about. Thank you Aloha for telling us and thank you, John and Judy for your tenure at Valby and Hope Lutheran. Clifford L. Carlson Portland Asks support for Fair Pay To the editor: The Fair Pay Amendment is nearing the number of signa tures needed to put it on the ballot. But it needs that last extra boost - that 83,361st valid signature. Basically, Fair Pay will amend the Oregon Constitu tion to require that wages, including fringe benefits, of public employees not be high er than those paid in private industry for the same work. When fully implemented, Fair Pay is expected to save Ore gonians approximately $800 million per year, now being paid out largely in excessive fringe benefits. Signing the petition will help get Fair Pay on the November ballot and will bring an issue which consumes most of your tax dollars under public de bate. If you want to help, or at least sign the initiative, call Fair Pay at 646-3346. We'll be glad to let you know the location of the nearest canvas ser. In the Tri-County area, drop by either the Fair Pay Office at 11200 S.W. Allen in Beaverton or go to the Petition Fair in Pioneer Square in downtown Portland between June 20th and 27th. Don't delay, Oregon should discuss fair pay.
