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

United Presbyterian

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

tal in convening a successful

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.

ABOUT IT
Mary Had A Little Boy
Mary had a little boy, his soul was white as snow,
He never went toSundaySchool, "cause Mary wouldn’t go”.
He never heard the tales of Christ that thrilled
the childish mind,
While other children went to class,
this child was left behind.
And so he grew from babe to youth, she saw to her dismay,
A soul that once was snowy white, became a dingy grey.
Realizing he was lost, she tried to win him back,
But now the soul that once was white had turned to
ugly black.
ITS NEVER
TOO EARLY
TO INSTALL GAS AIR CONDITIONING!
She even started back to church, and Bible Study too.
She begged the preacher, "Isn't there a thing that you
can do?”
The preacher tried, failed, and said, "We’re just too
far behind,
I tried to tell you years ago, but you would pay no mind”.
Be ahead of the heat this year It's never too early When the long hot
