To the Editor:
Re: Imnmnization
Often those of us in public office are critical of the
media and fail to commend you when credit is due.
I want to express my sincere thanks to the news-
papers, and radio and television stations in Oregon for
the tremendous job they did over the past several
months in publicizing the fact that without proper
immunizations students would be excluded from school
on April 21.
In January we estimated that over 200,000 Oregon
school children lacked the proper records of immuni-
zation. By April 21 that had been reduced to less than
10,000 students who actually had to be excluded from
school. While schools and local health officials get
much of the credit, we could not have achieved such a
high level of public awareness without the media.
Again, please accept my sincere thanks. Verne A. Duncan
State Superintendent of
Public Instruction

Letter to the Editor:
Dear Sirs:
I am writing in support of Ballot Measure No. 4
because l feel that Oregon roads are a valuable
resource that we cannot afford to let deteriorate. The
time to repair our roads is now, before they become so
broken up that reconstruction is required.
The increase in costs for reconstruction versus repair
can be as much as five or six times. Ballot Measure No.
4 will add one cent a gallon for the next three years and
all of this will go for Oregon roads.
Oregonians have a tremendous investment in roads.
We should protect that investment now before it costs
much more.

Yamhill County Engineer
Dear Sir:
Now that economics are tough, now when people
need retraining for new job opportunities, now when
the future doesn't look so bright, we need to support
the Chemeketa Community College with our YES vote
on May 18th. Chemeketa did an admirable job last year
on an $18.6 million budget, but this year is going to try
and serve a growing student body on an $18.3 million
proposed budget.
Chemeketa is good for Dayton. Now only are a few
classes offered here each year, we have access to the
Chemeketa McMinnville Center that offers dozens of
classes (at affordable tuitions) each quarter. My son
used to carpool to the Salem campus along with three
other students from this area. And some of the grad-
uating seniors from Dayton High School will be
planning on attending Chemeketa this fall.
During times like these it is to our benefit to support
Chemeketa. We cannot afford to cut back on such a
valuable service that offers so much practical help
today, and for the future. Services that come to the
average homeowner for only $1.10 per month.
Sincerely,
Gary Davis
Rt. 1, Box 10, Sp. 24 Dayton.
IN ONE MINUTE YOU CAN SAY,
"! MISS YOU VERY MUCH"
30 TIMES,VERY QUICKLY.
"I miss you very
much" is one good rea-
son to call long
distance.
There was a time
when you waited for a
special occasion to
call: to announce a ba-
by was born. Or to say
"hello" at holiday
times.
Today, almost any
occasion will do. To
catch up with the
news.., to share a
special moment.., to
hear a friendly voice
far away.
It means so much -
and costs so little.
Turn an ordinary
minute into a memo-
rable moment. Call
someone you love long
distance today.

Ballot measures for
state issues listed
The Oregon State Legislature has ~eferred five~ballot
measures to be placed on the May 18 Primary kallot.
Rcp. Bill Rutherford has listed a digest of them and
says that four of the measures were referred to the
ballot by the 1981 session of the Oregon Le~isl~'um,
and the fifth was referred to the ballot by the- O~ober
special session of the Legislature.
Ballot Measure 1 -- Proposes to expand the use of
the money the state receives from selling bonds for the
Water Development Fund. If this measure,passes,
cities with a population of less than 30,000 could borrow
money from that fund to construct or maintain their
water systems.
Ballot Measure 2 -- Currently, the state sells bonds
to help finance elderly and low income housinR
projects. Passage of this measure would repeal ,
low-income restrictions on the use of those funds ax~
allow the state to use some of the money to help finance
housing projects for disabled people.
Ballot Measure 3 ~ This measure proposes to put
into the State Constitution a provision which would
allow the state to sell up to $60 million in boa,ds to
finance construction of new correctional facilities within
the state. The money from sale of bonds would go to
finance the building of a 250-bed prison facility, forest
work camps, a segregation unit at the Oregon State
Penitentiary, and grants to local governments to help
them build or improve their correctional facilities.
Ballot Measure 4 ~ Passage would increase gasoline
tax by one cent per gallon in each of the next three
years. The state tax on gasoline is now 8 cents per
gallon. If this is approved, gasoline taxes could rise to
11 cents by July, 1984. This measure would add an
additional $20.6 million to the highway fund to be used
for state and local roads and highways in the next year.
Ballot Measure 5 ~ Currently, the State Supreme
Court Chief Justice is picked by members of the
Supreme Court. This measure proposes to change that
by allowing the Governor to appoint the Chief Justice
instead of other members of the court.
