Publisher» Letters to the Editor A senior citizen for Reagan To the editor It is good to be a senior citizen in today’! United Stales, because there are so many more people to share our long pasts and to enjoy the bright yrars ahead Much of this favorable situation mut be credited to President Keagan and the leadership he has provided to this country since 1980 Not only has his vision and good judgment made the Social Security and Medicare program* secure for our futures, after he had inherited a crumbling program in 1980. but he has cut inflation and improved the economy and made it better for all men and women in America today As a senior citizen and a voter, I want all other electors to know that it was President Keagan who invited the democrats to Join in a bi partisan commission that led to a real solution, not just a quick fix Henefit* are now up I Ho dollars a month for the average couple and more than 2luu dollars a year tiased on the lower rate of inflation n m e l'«Ho Spending for programs for older Americans has Jumped 27 percent in the past three years The overall picture is) hat 4!« million elderly, poor and disabled citizens one in every five Ameri cans, will have health care needs met through Medicare and Medi caid in I9H4 That’s a million more this year and three million more that I9HO The advantage that many years of experience has dealt me makes it imperative that I go with a proven leader and winner and vote for and recommend President Kea gan on November 6th Wilbur Hishop HlSwi SW Cook lame Tigard. Oregon 97223 Unicpie perspective to Linde To the n il lor As a native Oregonian working in legal education ir. another stale, I ran offer a unique perspective on Justice Hans Linde’s bid for re elec lion to the Oregon Supreme Court I was horn and raised in the cattle and wheat country of Kastern Oregon and I lived for several years in the Willamette Valley I am fam iliar with the ideals and the commit mrnts of Oregonians The judicial work of Justice Linde is in accord with these ideals and commitments Justice Linde’s work exemplifies the Oregon spirit that has prevailed on both sides of the Cascades since the days of the pioneers Independence, self reliance, and commitment to the common bonds of decency have been our ideals They have lieen strengthened and reinforced by Justice Linde Justice Linde was instrumental in putting the people of Oregon on a course of determining their own rule* of crim inal procedure Prior to Justice Linde. Oregon had wan dered from its ideal of self reliance by allowing the Supreme Court of the United Stal«**, when setting the minimal conduct needed to satisfy the I ’nited States Constitution, to make our rules of criminal proced ure for us Oregonians have never been satisfies! either in settling for the minimal level of conduct or in having someone else tell us how to live our lives Justice Linde has returned us to a course of making and being responsible for our own decisions Several other states have followed • Iregon s lead and accepted Justice Linde’s view of state self government Justice lande is recognized as one of the country s leading state jurists He has built a nationwide reputa lion, first in legal j-ducation, and now as an appellate court judge Wherever I go throughout the coun try and I mention my Oregon background i which I do frequently ), people remark about (he splendid work of Justice Linde He brings honor to Oregon because of his commitment to excellence and to the dutnttv and worth of the indn tduaf- Iwo virtues which have long been associated with Oregon Justice Linde * virtues are uniquely Oregon Justice Linde's continued service on the Supreme Court of Oregon will henefit all of the people of Oregon and w ill keep Oregon's Judicial system among the very best in the nation I .anee Tibbies Professor of I .aw Capital University I jiw School Columbus, Ohio BPA rate should decrease To the editor BPA will not need a rate increase during (he next 27 month period In fact a five percent to eight percent decrease from current BPA whole sale rates should be possible The current rates are much more than is needed to support the present levels of activity within BPA and within WPPSS The WPPSS seg ment of BPA's budget is lower by more than »2txi.ixxi.ixx) for this fiscal year than it was for the last two fiscal years, even though bond inter est and principal are being paid on plants t, 2 and 3 And the actual expenditures are less than the hud get amounts, running more like t2SO,ou).ooo below the prior year The requested rate increase is built on the assumption that con struction will restart on one and three during the rate period This assumption is not true So. even less will be needed by BPA to pay WPPSS in the next two years In a press release dated Septein tier 13. BPA stated that it would -pay in deferred interest in Septem her »21* million pay in current »320 million inters! now pay this year on »226 million principal lot.,I »764 million This total of »764. iioo . ouo is to be paid under the current rale struc ture over a period of two fiscal years, last year and this year This was possible even after some relief was provided to industrial custom ers and to irrigators by BPA. and also after WPPSS expenses were paid for 770 persons employed at the one and three sites 'shut down’’ years ago and WPPSS one. two and three bond payment* were made Thus, the current rates supported expenditures which were hundreds of millions of dollars higher per year than w ill tie experienced during the new 27 month rate period Kalepay ers and their utilities should nquest and expect rate reduction* from BPA KdwardN Kadeley Member.
