What would we think about a presidential candidate who had never Hy l\d (ilen n been to a dentist'1 Would the President then refuse to pick on a “ snaggle tooth?"

To do so. is not only acceptable, but considered prudent Recent events, however, have cast doubt on the prudence of obtaining advise Nancy Reagan has recently taken it on the chin for consulting an astrologer ami Michael Dukakis has been smeared with the possibility that he consulted a psychiatrist We think the mass media spends so much tunc reporting the income quential things because they neither know nor understand the important things We won't read a great deal about what cither Dukakis or Hush will do if elected president That would take some effort We will read a great deal about whether they've seen a psychiatrist or not. how they perspire on the campaign trail and what kind of cute little boys tliey were according to some 100 year old former nest iloor neighbor My original hyjiothcMs stands We'll n<4 be able to learn anything mean ingAil ab«nit either camp F; sccpt their party And that's all that really counts. . / \W r . * * ‘ V , ,1 « » » I . / . • 1, ' y » ^ I * f .v * * 1 * ;f Ü B è '• ’: % •.

I am on the Water Policy Commit tee. and therefore. I receive all of the minutes from the Water Resource Com m ission's meetings. Bill Cramer's water philosophy and knowledge cast him in a minority position on the Commission Despite this, he handled that position with courage and did make a difference for water users in Fastem Oregon It is important dut we in Eastern Oregon continue to have this kind of representation on the Water Resource Commission For this reason. I called a meeting with Governor Goldschmidt to discuss and ensure such an appointment to fill the vacancy I am pleased that Cliff Bentz of Ontario has been ap pointed to this scat on the Commis sion I strongly heliesc that he will represent us well, and will he a scry capable and enthusiastic voice for Eastern Oregon We need more people like Hill Cramer and Cliff Bentz who are willing to serve on important state comm issions. hoards, and committees I thank Bill Cramer for hts service to Oregon, and congratulate Cliff Bent/ on his appointment Sincerely.
