importance of constituents' let
ters and visits to the. legislature.

dure of testifying at public hear
ings, commenting that anyone

Denise W. A husband is

mine is helping me to a nervous
breakdown. Wherever , I turn,
whatever I try, nothing comes

getting my driver's license, but
he won't let me use the car
because I dented it slightly. I've
tried to cheer up through vol

campaign to help more Fourth
District businessmen compete
(or Federal government con
tracts. Duncan ' noted in a letter to
presidents of Southwestern Ore
gon Chambers of Commerce,
that he was attempting to set
up a series of conferences be
tween local businessmen and
representatives of the major
Federal agencies.
"What I have envisioned Is
a series of half - day meetings
for local business interests with
speakers outlining the opportun
ities available and procedures
necessary for securing govern
ment contracts in fields not now
represented in our area," Dun
can said.
Would Arrange Sneakers
The congressman said he would
arrange for the government
speakers if the Chambers would
sponsor the conferences,
I feel that there is a great
potential here to help bring
aoouc tne diversmcation of in
dustry which the Fourth Dis
trict so sorely needs," he point
ed out, "I can't see us building
missues or suomarines, Dut j
think there are some high val
ue, iow duik items witn doui a
civilian and governmental mar
ket. I know there are persons
in the Fourth District who
would be interested in investing
in new firms if thev realized
the market was available and
thought they could do so on a
competitive basis," D u n c a n
added. . .!;..
Duncan added that he was
also interested In calling atten
tion to contracts available for
goods and services already pro
duced' in Southern Oregon. He
said that lack of communication
between the Federal govern
ment and already - existing pro
ducers was a major reason why
more government contracts
were not awarded in Oregon.
Sources Are Noted '
The Congressman . noted that
there are several sources local
businessmen might consult for
contracting information. He list
ed Commerce Business Daily
available from the U. S. Com
merce Department, and a pam
phlet oublished by the General
Services Administration which
Duncan said he would furnish
additional information to any
interested businessmen.
He added that he hoped
Chamber of Commerce officials
would cooperate in establishing
conferences and supplying infor
mation which might lead to ex
pansion and diversmcation of
the f ourth District economy.
Portlanders Want
To Save Stadium
PORTLAND (UPI) A group

was formed Tuesday to study
the future of Multnomah Stadium.
