Fifth and Park. —Pastor William Lewis to ttj» lì bi tor Editor, The Journal, Public reaction generated by a bill that would pay the Go vernor as much as aCongress- man has made one point clear to me: People have no idea what top level executives earn in govern ment or private industry. It doesn’t take much research to find prevailing wage rates for top-level people range from 1 1/2 to 10 times the Governor's annual salary. There are a num ber of public employees in the State of Oregon that are paid more than the Governor. We ought to seriously consider the implications of paying the Go vernor less than we pay many other public officials in Oregon and far less than people with comparable positions in private industry. To date, Oregon has been blessed with outstanding quality lie officials. I fear we are ten ding to limit public service to («) the rich, (b) those wil- ling to make financial sacri- fice, (c) people "on the take” or (d) people tending to culti vate future employment oppor tunities. I think the people of Oregon deserve better treat ment than that. It is ironic at a time when people are concerned about good government that we should pro vide financial impediments to getting the best caliber of em ployees, whether elected or ap pointed. Sincerely, Earl Blumenauer State Representative Editor, The Journal On February 9, 1973, 1 filed with the Secretary of State a Pwblithsd (very Tkwndwy •< Nyi«w.

It's A Bargain Ministerial Association O°AR<ADLA CHURCH Dramatic instances of use of funds raised by United Pres byterians through th»1 One Great Hour of Sharing were cited to day by Irvin Topliff, who heads Adrian United Presbyterian Church's Lenten offering drive. Topliff said that after 17 years of warfare in the Sudan, community life has been shat tered. Leaders of the World Council of Churches, of which the United PresbvterianChurch is a member, were instrumen tal in convening a successful peace conference between con tending North and South Sudan last year. As a result, it be came possible to enter the for mer war areas to help pro vide food and basic shelter needs to help heil broken bo dies and divided communities. United Presbyterians, together with other denominations, pro vided the money with which Church World Service was able to rush aid to the war-weary areas. Included were medi cines, foodstuffs, and building supplies purchased with funds raised through the United Pres byterian Church’s One Great Hour of Sharing, He also cited Hope Ranch, on the Fort Peck Reserva tion near Poplar, Montana, which furnishes a home for troubled American Indian youth. Its support comes from the Fund for the Self-Development of People, a part of the One Great Hour of Sharing. This is an all Indian project, with Indian di rector, Indian board and all- Indian participants from the Sioux tribe. Irvin Topliff declared that this year's One Great Hour of Sharing drive has become even more urgent "because we know where the needs are. They are in Nicaragua, in Sudan, and in India. They are also in this country where poverty, un employment or lack of oppor tunity keep people from living in dignity.” He said thousands of people rely for their survival on the giving of church people, and ur ged Presbyterians to increase their giving this year to the One Great Hour of Sharing.
