Vote No on Measure 9
Another crucial ballot measure to be decided on the
November 2 ballot is Measure No. 9. the Nuclear Energy
issue.
Almost everyone agrees that the prospects of senous future
energy shortages in the Pacific Northwest are real. This
•greement is shared by labor and management, farm and
forest interests, and mos» responsible citizens
Ballot Measure No. 9. if passed, would scnooslv restrict
the development of the last remaining potential for further
electrical energy.
The great hydroelectric dams which brought development
and prosperity to the Columbia River Basin are nearing their
limits of expansion Nuclear power, with its proven record of
safety, economy and environmental advantages, must meet
the region’s future electrical needs in the foreseeable future.
Oregonians Against the Ban on Nuclear Energy, me
coalition of business, labor and citizen organizations opposing
passage of ballot measure No. 9 on the November 2 general
election ballot, have listed "nine reasons to vote no on nine’’
which seeks to ban nuclear power development in the state.
These are;
1. It would effectively ban further development oí nuclear
power in Oregon.
2. It would make a political football of the energy issue,
giving control of plant construction to a handful of politicians.
3. By removing a viable energy source, one of the most
economical in terms of consumer dollars, it would have a
devastating effect on the economy and social stability of
Oregon.
4. Cost of required procedures and administration would be
exorbitant should the measure pass—and Oregon taxpayers
would pay the bill.
5. Its passage is being promoted through a campaign based
on tear and distortion of fact and ignores the perfect safety
record of commercial nuclear power.
6. Measure 9 did not originate in Oregon ..it was designed
elsewhere, as were the campaign tactics and strategies.
LETTERS
TO
EDITOR
Editor. The Journal:
It was interesting to read
Senator Church’s criticism of
President Ford’s striking out
when it comes to helping the
elderly in The Idaho States­
man. today. He blames
Ford's veto's as the culprit
and lauds candidate Carter
for all the great good he will
do for the
aged and the
poor
If Senator Church realty­
wants to know who short
shifted the elderly all he has
to do is look into the mirror
and then go look at all his
liberal buddies in Congress
who have all these years,
been voting to spend more
money than they had guts
enough to tax the people for.
This spending and printing
more money by these liberal
boys has been the biggest
robbery committed by any­
one in modern times and it
has been especially hard on
the elderly because as they
have saved for their old age
they find this liberal bunch
has inflated the economy and
deflated the money so these
older people who would have
had enough to live on in their
old age now find these
thieves have robbed them of
their security by their de­
creasing the value of their
dollars. I am sure Senator
Church and our liberal boy Al
Ullman over here in Oregon
and all the rest of their
buddies will never be bro­
ught to court for robbery but I
do believe in the hereafter
and that there is an honest
judge over there and that
they will then have to pay the
price of the greatest robbers
of all.
When will we as Ameri­
cans ever learn that we can
take care of our aged and our
poor easier and better and
cheaper ourselves as families
and communities than big
gov ernment can do it? When
will we ever learn that
government produces no­
thing? If government does
help one group it has to steal
it from another group via the
tax method
When will we ever beware
of and turn our backs on the
“promise
everything for
nothing" politician?
Yours truly.

7. It would undermine Oregon's present regulators laws,
described by legal authorities as the most stringent in the
nation
8. It would remove the option of using the best altérname
of ail power sources available to Oregonians over the next 15
to 25 years.
9. Since it is probably unconstitutional on both state and
federal levels it would be challenged in the courts, resulting
in lengthy and expensive irtiganon and compounding the
energy dilemma.
The State of California recently went through a similar
argument, and they turned down the measure by almost a two
to one vote We can see no reason for Oregon to lock
ourselves in to an almost impossible "no growth" situation in
the development of future electrical energy
We should vote NO on Measure No. 9.

Some candidates seeking

been created
by them to

thetr own interest with no
respect or regard for the
defendant. A person should
be considered innocent until
proven guilty and at a

According to Mrs. Wesley
Roehr of the church organ
committee, an overwhelming
response to the need for
organ funds made it possible
to pay for the organ and also
to purchase a new piano as
well. A renewed interest in
church musk has resulted.
The organ was installed last
month by an organ expert
sent out by the manufacturer.
He remarked about the fine
acoustics in the local church.
The public is welcome.

THE CENTURY-OLD ST. THOMAS Church at Canyon
City, will be the site for the annual convention of the
Episcopal Diocese of Eastern Oregon. October 22-24.
Perhaps that is fitting in
this Bicentennial year, when
the Church has received a
grant from the Oregon
Commission of the National
Park Service to restore St.
Thomas’
Church as a
national monument.
St. Thomas' is truly a his­
torical church, built in
Canyon City during the gold
rush days there, surviving
through changes tn
the
economy, the coming of the
railroads and the establish­
ment of the lumber and cattle
industry.
One of the seven Nevtus’
churches built by the Rev.
Ruehen Nevius (who was
pastor there until 1880. when
he moved on to The Dalles >
St. Thomas’ is one of the few
that is still used for church
purposes m it's present form
St. James’ in Milton
Freewater (which was ori­
ginally at Weston) and
Ascension Chapel at Cove are
the other two which remain,
as is. for use in active church
worship of the seven ’Nevius’
churches in Eastern Oregon
St Thomas’ features a rose
window over the altar that in
itself is priceless, having
been brought around 'the
