Oregon Feb. 22, 1966 Gate City Journal Dear Editor: It is indeed unfortunate that there are not more people in this country (our country) like Dellin A. Erickson giving their opinions, as his were expressed in last week's Gate City Journal. Our officials in government of city, county and state are eager to grasp all of the so-called "free” money possible for them to get It is exactly comparable to over spending and buying on credit by individuals. A reserve should first be built, credit based upon the reserve and used only in case of emergency Slavery is classing mildly the eventuality of debt, whether it be a country or an individual. Pride is defined as “honorable self respect” and when accomp lished. it is security. Desire should be for security, then selfishness would not exist. I would rather eat beans paid for, than to owe for a steak.

WITH LOCAL MERCHANTS and membars of the police depart ment "on the ball," shoplifters have found tough sledding lately in downtown Nyssa. This photo was snapped shortly before noon Friday in front of Wilson Bros. Dept, store. In the center is Don Bowers, a clerk in the men's department, who spotted Rick Asher as he was stuffing socks underneath his jacket. Nyssa Police Chief Francis E. Petrie was on the scene immediately, and with Bowers' cooperation, the man was picked up in a nearby tavern. Petrie said Asher was very intoxicated and he doubted if he even knew what he was doing. He was arrested for petty larceny and $35 bail was posted by his employer. The amount was forfeited when Asher failed to appear in court the following day, the chief stated. This is the second unsuccessful shoplifting attempt within a period of one week, as it was on the previous Saturday evening when Sgt. Alvin Allen spotted and nabbed shoplifters at Michael's Pharmacy. —Journal Photo.
