Distribution David and April Hilton-Sykes, Publishers Letters to the Editor Article misses point To the Editor: There appears to be some con fusion in your article concerning my conflict of interest complaint against Judge Carlson. The cen tral point of my complaint was passed over very lightly in your interview with Judge Carlson. Judge Carlson appears to have us ed his position as a county official to designate a quarry site on pro perty owned by 4-C Corporation (president) and to accept road work on Warfield road as pay ment for royalties on the rock. official profiting from his position as said official is in violation of Oregon Statutes. Personal discussions with Judge Carlson concerning this matter would have been inap propriate since his actions af fected not just me, but every citizen of Morrow County. The resolution of this matter should depend on the decision of the State of Oregon Ethics Commis sion based on material submitted and subsequent investigation should it go that far. Sincerely, (s) Jim McElligott He misrepresented himself as the sole legal owner of the quarry site to the county court.

Lauri Hire reported her vehicle on fire; Neighborhood Center actions explained To the Editor: People have been asking why is the Neighborhood Center of South Morrow County advertis ing for a full time coordinator in late July early August when they hired someone in February. The reason is that in January the Neighborhood Center Board of Directors wanted a coordinator for only six months while the board worked on some in house issues concerning the operation of the center and future directions that the Neighborhood Center might explore. The six month period is over, the board has assessed its situa tion and so now the position of coordinator is now permanent and full time. The board also felt even though we are pleased with the interim person and that one may reapply for the job, that we ought to open the application pro cess to the public which we are now doing. Application process closes on the 16th of August.
