GUADALUPE
G. FUENTES
The return of Guadalupe G.
Fuentes, son of Mrs. Geno-
veva Fuentes of Nyssa, from
Job Corps training in San
Marcos, Texas, was announced
late last week by Joaquin Hern
andel, youth counselor for the
State Employment service.
The Nyssa youth was the first
appointee from the local area
in 1966, and arrived at the GARY
center on February 17 last year.
Since then, he has successful
ly completed 17 months of train
ing, for a total of 975 class
room hours in the field of
radio repairman.
The only thing, according to
Guadalupe, that be would change
about his Job Corjjs training
if he had to make the choice
again is, “I would have sub
mitted my application for the
training a year earlier, and
by now I would be well estab
lished and working in my newly-
chosen field of repairing
radios.”

A man can become very un
popular talking against high
wages. Nevertheless the time
may be here when somebody
has to point out what we are

in pay are swallowed up by in

curtail services, what have we
gained?
There are many signs that we
are encouraging a large num
ber of people in this country
to price themselves out of the

that such spending “must tie

ILmghlv 40 per cent of the
estimated expenditures for the
fiscal year 1968 are relatively
controllable, according to the
Citizens Public Expenditures
Survey.
Citing areas of possible re
duction, Joint Economic Com
mittee Chairman William Prox-
nnre pointed to the suggested
$9.5 billion for civil public
works, “the highest expend
itures on non-defense public
works in the history of our
nation.”
He said much of this is of the
"pork barrel” variety which
should be postponed until ec
onomic and military demands
are reduced. Control of expend
itures begins withcongression-
al refusal to authorize new
programs or expand old ones.

It keeps their temperature just right. It makes their kitchens more efficient (it’s the
flame that counts in cooking). Here are institutions that must have an instant, never-
ending hot water supply. They will tell you quite frankly that nothing heats water
like natural gas.
Cascade Natural Gas Corporation serves 49 hospitals and rest homes on its lines in
Washington and Oregon. They require a form of energy that is dependable and efficient
beyond question. The same fuel that does a better job for hospitals will also do a better
job in your home. And it will do it for less. Conversions are inexpensive. Cascade has a
plan—if you wish to use it—that will relieve you of almost all the expense of switching
to gas. May we tell you more?
