Meeting contradicted spirit of openness
To the Editor
It has come to my attention that
four members of the newly ap
pointed Medical Service transition
Team called an organizational
meeting and intentionally neglected
to notify the other three members o f
the group, or the public, of the lime
or location o f their meeting
This is an abject contradiction of
the spirit o f openness and honesty
that has prevailed thus far in the
County Court's attempt to resolve
the health care issuev
The meeting was held by Mr
D a lry m p le .
Hoardman
C ity
Manager. Mr M iller, Port o f Mor
row Manager. M r Scegcr, County
Planner, and M r Hcmpcl. PMH
Administrator
As a resident o f the North end. I
Icel offended hy the tactics o f these
representatives of the Court I have
written and spoken to Judge Carlsn.
asking that these four appointees he
removed from the committee to
preverve the credibility of the Coun
ly Court
In cloving. I would like to
apologize to the citizens o f the
South end lor the indisc rctions of the
North end partic ipants in this regret
table incident The majority o f us
believe that planning for the public
good should he done in a public
forum
Sincerely.

Supports supercollider for county
To the Editor
Many citizens have been wonder
mg about my silence these last few
weeks If it is any reassurance, to
quote Mark T wain, rumors ol my
demise arc. al best, premature
I'm olten told that I never have a
nice thing to say when I write letters
to the editor I would like to take this
opportunity to say how nice the
weather is so I can go hack to com
plaining jhi>ut everything else
Over the nest several months,
many decisions w ill he nude that
w ill affect the future o f Morrow
County I think they should he
discussed openly Several Port Com
miss loners arc in favor o f a plan to
ship garbage upriver from Van
couver. Wa to a dumpsitc in Mor
row County The plan may also in
elude garbage from Portland as well
The Port manager and commis
sioners support such plans because
( 11 they produce jobs and (2) they
might increase county revenue
Perhaps more unfortuanlc is the
image o f Morrow County that is
conveyed to others I 'll he the first
to admit (hat the local economy is
had I hadn't realized that we were
so desperate that some would sell our
future pile ol garbage Frankly. I'm
shocked that land considered loo
precious for industrial development
by state environmental groups is
prime lor a dumping ground the sc
cond that Portland whistles I think
we have taken enough garbage from
west o f the Cascades And while we
may gain jobs in the shod run. what
industries w ill want to locate in a
county that is Oregon's garbage pile ’
Now some w ill argue that the gar
hage we get from Portland w ill h<
clean garbage (here w ill he no pollu
lion problem To them I reply
Siniplot History tells us that (he
Simplol tecdlot wasn't supposed to
smell It your sinuses jr c working
on a typical sunancr night, you know
better What guarantee do we
have th jt the Port's garbage pile w ill
he any better' W ill the ra t. and Hies
he instructed to shop in Hcrmiston ’
Perhaps the port w ill give us the
straight story prior to the March
elections
Another important issue is the
Supercollider
President Reagan
supports building the collider At
least 11 states are in competition to
he (he site Among sites in Oregon,
the Morrow Umatilla region is oh
stoutly the best, yet a state commit
tec favored a site in the Valley i The
valley vile is geologically ques
tionahlc and was chosen only lor
political reasons J
Governor Neil Goldschmidt w ill
make a decision on an Oregon site
sometime soon Many people have
tried to contact the (iovemor to con
vince him to reconsider the Hoard
man site atul to point out the value
of a site th jt could he supponed hy
three states So tar. to paraphrase the
G o v e rn o r,
we have gotten
“ Nowhere"
(ioldschmidt has no time to meet
with us
As luck would have it. Neil
(ioldschmidt w ill he visiting Hcpp
ner on the morning o f l-ehruary 20
With a final decision due in the nest
Ml days, that w ill literally he "the
last chance"to influence the dcsioon
nuking process As a member ol the
Supercollider Task Force, I know
that hundreds upon hundreds ot
average citizens were tx*h interested
and supportive More people came
to a single meeting here than to all
of the meetings in the Valley com
hinecl Hut Neil ( ioldschmidt doesn't
know that and it's time to let him
know
So what can the average person
d o ’ W ell, it the conventional ap
proach doesn't work, the unconsen
tional should he considered I pro
pose a citizens group called Support'
of Collider tor I Tiutilla and Morrow
(S C U M l I'd come up with a het
ter acronym, hut there |ust isn't time
To |oin us. just have you and your
tnends troin T n u tilla County show
up at the Hcppner (Tty Hall at M a m
on February 20 W ear j button or
nametag that says “ I like the Super
co llid e r" or "S ( ' T M . " or carrv
a sign that says. “ Neil, without the
collider, we're nowhere " fhc
bravest among you w ill shake Neil
Goldschmidt's hand ami tell him sou
hope he'll consider I astern Oregon
as the site tor the Supercollider He
may mu listen to us. hut at least he'll
remember that real people live out
here
As an added bonus, you get In par
ticipate in a centennial celebration of
Heppner's history and Morrow
Country's unity You get to start the
nest century nuking a positive state
riK-nt about where Eastern oregon
should he going Remember. we can
always he a garbage dump or a
desolate uninhabited wasteland Or
you can he S C I ' M like me Be
ing S C I M may not sound like
the greatest idea hut if N eil
(ioldschmidt ignores us what docs
that nuke us then '
I sure hope the weather stays this
nice
