Governor Talks
In his talk Governor Hat
field stressed the importance
of the state and the nation re
maining "fiscally solvent" and
said "we must practice fiscal
responsibility as well as
preach it." He said that since
taking office as governor of
Oregon, budget increases have
been low and added "just be
cause we have money, we
don't have to spend it." The
governor said that, of course,
economy could be carried to
the extreme and that no vital
services or needs are being
neglected,
Speaking of 1 e gl s 1 ation
which the people of the state
believe is desirable, the gov
ernor said "when we put pro
grams on the books, the funds
must be provided."
Turning to recent develop
ments in the slate, Governor
Hatfield spoke of the conver
sion of a hospital formerly
used for tubercular patients,
saying it would be used for
cardlolofiy cases. He pointed
out that the University of Ore
gon Medical school is known
for its outstanding work and
research in cardiology, spoke
of the need for additional
cancer study and research and
then said "I would rather that
we spent more money to
lengthen lifo than in finding
a means to destroy life, as
we do with money for armaments."
The governor also spoke
about the need to reorganize
government, said there is a
need for modernization of
Oregon's system and explain
ed his own plan for this state.
One man cannot be expected
to supervise 100 bureaus and
departments," he declared and
said "we cannot get along
with horse and buggy govern
mental structures in this age."
Welfare Load
Governor Hatfield spoke
with feeling about the heavy
welfare load in Oregon and
said he believed it is immor
al for government to create
a situation where people lose
the Incentive to solve their
own problems and provide for
their own needs. He brought
the most prolonged applause
of the speech when he said
I ra tired of having Repub
llcaiis mouth words about
their fears of a welfare state
and then refuse to stand up
and be counted. We must put
people to work and get them
off the welfare rolls. We can
not keep people In all the
comforts of life while they do
nothing. We have compas
sion, we do believe we are
our brother's keeper, but wc
have a warm heart for the
working man as well as the
one who is not working. Wc
arc taking these welfare dol
lars out of the working man's
pocket. Let's help people to
help themselves."
In closing, the governor said
"The Republican banner Is
big enough for all of us" and
added that "the control of
tho party should be in the
hnnris of the people. We can
not hitve it In the hands of
the few." He said the "guid
ing lines" for 1962 should be
laid down now, and pledged
his "full support" to the party-Federation
offices and those
who helped to plan the meet
ing and day-long program said
attendance was almost twice
as large as had been Indicat
ed by reservations. Almost
BOO were present for the
luncheon and so many women
appeared that they filled a
block-long line for about three
hours.
