Gregory, On tario, a member-at-large of the Oregon League of Women Voters, has been appointed to serve on a three-state com- mitteee organized to plan and conduct a Snake River Basin Seminar on land and water uses, according to an announcement from the seminar chairman, Mrs. Eugene Smith of Idaho Falls. Mrs. Smith is a former member ofthe Water Resources Committee, League of Women Voters national board. The committee, which met recently in Boise to plan the June 10-12 seminar, is com posed of professional and lay leaders in land and water uses throughout Idaho, eastern Ore gon and eastern Washington and members of Leagues of Women Voters in these states. Mrs. Gregory will be serving on the seminar’s recruitment sub committee. “With the tremendously in creased public interest in en vironmental issues which stem from land and water usage, there is now, more than ever before, a need for informed and responsible leadership in at tacking the interrelated pro blems of all river basins, in cluding the Snake,” stated Mrs. • Smith. “The seminar’s pur pose is to bridge the gap of understanding between the ex perts in pollution, ecology and resources management and the citizens who are ultimately re sponsible for making choices and seeing that plans are car ried out. The seminar has two special goals; providing com prehensive information about the basin’s many and often con flicting uses of its land and water, and training citizen lea ders to take effective roles in the decision-making process concerning these uses and the alternatives tothem. The semi nar itself, however, will not support or oppose specific le- legislation,” Mrs. Smith added. The seminar is being spon sored by the national League of Women Voters Education Fund under a grant from the Water Quality Office of the Environ mental Protection Agency and will be the 16th river basin seminar conducted by the League. Some 50 participants, re presenting a broad cross sec- tion of civic and rural leader- ship in the three-state area, will be invited to attend the all expense paid seminar. Each participant will agree to assume responsibility for continuing the educational aspects of the seminar in his own area.
