Renewed confidence in Dept, of Justice To the Editor: The Oregon Department of Justice deserves high marks for their first rate defense of Measure Seven, the property rights measure voters approved last November. As the author of Measure Seven, I was publicly very critical of the defense, or lack of defense of Measure Seven by the Department o f Justice in the Marion County Circuit Court. Under the leadership o f then Deputy Attorney General David Schuman, the state's defense of Measure Seven at the trial court level was deplorable: almost nonexistent. It appeared the state didn't want to win the case. However, the Measure Seven case is now at the supreme court level and the state's defense of Measure Seven is being handled by Stephanie Strifiler and Janet Metcalf. David Schumah is ‘no longer with the Department of Justice. Curiously, after losing the Measure Seven case Births ( arson Patrick Brosnan-a son Carson Patrick was bom to Carte and Damon Brosnan on August 3, 2001, at St. Anthony's Hospital in Pendleton. The baby was 7 lbs. 10 oz. and was 20" long. Grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. Bill Hensel of Hermiston. Mr. Max Renick o f Umatilla, and Mr. and Mrs. Dan Brosnan of Heppner. Great-grandmother is Mrs. Marian Brosnan of Heppner. Rachael T heron G ilbert-a daughter Rachael Theron was bom to Jem tier and Rick Gilbert of Etna. California on August 24, 2001, at Enterprise. The baby weighed 8 lbs. 9 oz. Shejoms sister. Brittany, 13, at home. Grandparents are Bob and Lorrene Montgomery of Lexington. Jim and Rosemary French of Pendleton, and Pete and Dianne Gilbert of Corvallis. Great- grandparents are Vivian Freerksen of Albany and Oren Gilbert of Albany. at the trial court level, David Schuman was appointed to the Oregon Court o f Appeals by Gov. John Kitzhaber, a Measure Seven opponent. I have read carefully the legal briefs the state has filed with the Oregon Supreme Court and have had those briefs evaluated by our attorneys. We agree that the state is now doing a first class job of defending Measure Seven. I doubt that many of the staff of the Department of Justice are Measure Seven supporters. Nonetheless, they have approached their responsibility to defend Measure Seven with the level of integrity and professionalism the citizens of Oregon deserve. They have given us renewed confidence that the will of the voters will be upheld.

Slow down, watch for kids As back-to-school time approaches, transportation officials are reminding motorists to be alert for children walking and riding bikes to and from schools and bus stops. When school resumes drivers will see children in places where they did not see them during the summer. "As an adult, you have the responsibility to be alert and avoid injuring children," said Rick Wanng of the ODOT Transportation Safety Division. "Imagine seeing a child in the street unconscious and bleeding in front o f your car. You don't want that to happen." The best way to avoid such a tragedy is simple: slow down and be alert. Obey the posted speed in school zones whenever children might be present. Extracurricular activities mean that children will be traveling in school zones from early morning to well into the evening hours. "This is not about avoiding a ticket. This is about avoiding a 7 . . tragedy. As drivers we need to remember that we are the adults driving the 3,000-pound steel machines. We are responsible," Wanng said. "The vulnerable ones are the children who are not protected by a vehicle and who often cannot understand complex traffic situations."
