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

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

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
