The activity has had a positive impact on the communi ty, county and local businesses. Part of the reason for that growth has been qualified people involv ed on the commission. As past chairman of the Port of Morrow budget committee, I have had the opportunity to watch and observe these commissioners in action. I have been impressed with Bill Sharkey. Bill asks tough questions about the day to day operations of the Port. He has, I believe a better understanding of the day to day operations of the port than the other commis sioners. This comes with Bill’s trucking business working out of the port on a daily basis. Bill has been directly involved in the negotiation with Portland General Electric, on the Coyote Springs Co-Generation Plant. This pro ject, if it continues on its current track, could be the best project that the port has had. Bill puts in a lot of time and ef fort on this commission. I believe that his past performance war rants our continued support. I would like everyone to join me in voting to reelect Bill Sharkey for port commissioner. Yours very truly, (s) Don Russell Take tough stance on drinking abuse To the Editor: The people of Morrow Coun ty should look to the action taken by Peter F. Sandrock, Jr., the Benton County district attorney. He has taken a tough stand on persons who drink while driving and on men who assault their wives. Drinking drivers and abusive spouses happen to be two of society’s biggest problems. Anyone who goes after them to fullest extent of the law ought to be lauded with praise. The city police in the Salem area, located in Marion County, have been pulling people over who have just come out of a local tavern after maybe only having one or two beers. Sandrock is criticized by some people like Dean Bautz, founder of Benton County Citizens for Justice, that he follows a zero- tolerance policy on prosecuting suspected drunk drivers. Mean while the tavern owners in Salem complained that the city police were deliberately staking out drinking establishments in their campaign against drinking drivers. While these two cases appear to be extreme examples of law enforcement, it bears remember ing that more than half of the 49 males between the ages of 15 and 20 who were killed in traffic ac cidents last year in Oregon had been drinking. Nationwide, almost half of the 44,529 traffic deaths in 1990 were alcohol related. That is one death every 24 minutes in a drinking-driver traffic accident. As for domestic violence, the tougher the law gets, the better. Is there any excuse for a man beating up his wife or vice-versa? Not in our book, and not in the view of 99 percent of the public. Domestic violence, however, is often the sign of other problems, including alcohol, drugs and unemployment; arrest and pro secution must not be the only of ficial attention paid to the crime. But first comes arrest and pro secution, and then appropriate treatment or punishment. I hope that you take some time and think about drinking and V CHEVROLET f driving or domestic violence and about actions of Peter Sandrock and Salem City Police. The actions of Peter Sandrock and Salem city police are worth noting and encouraging if we want a drug/alcohol free com munity to raise our children. So give it some serious thought.

Box 170 Boardman, Oregon 97818 481-9474 481-7351 Allergic Reactions to Insulin Allergic reactions to insulin, an injectable hormone used by many diabetics, can involve the site o f injection or, much less commonly, the bloodstream. Reactions at the injection site may occur as burning, redness, and itching for up to 12 hours after an injection. A single oral dose o f an antihistamine may help reduce redness and itching. If local reactions continue, it may be come necessary to switch to a differ ent source or type of insulin. An allergic reaction to insulin can occur from insulin derived from animals (pork and beef) or from insulin produced in laboratories. However, according to the Ameri can Hospital Formulary Service, studies have shown fewer allergy problems associated with the hu man-type insulin produced in the lab than with purified pork insulin According to Dr. Leslie Grammer, Professor o f Medicine at North western U niversity, writing in Pharmacy Timè's, the potential for allergies to various insulin types varies from person to person. An additional source for allergies is the contaminants or impurities found in insulin products. In diabetics who must take insu lin and yet have had local or sys temic reactions, a desensitization procedure is recommended by some physicians. Insulin is injected into and/or under the skin over several days, starting with very low doses and ending with doses in the thera peutic range.
