To fluorid ate or not to fluorid ate

The ballot measur e makes it unlawful to

'rubber stamped'
into office by voters
To the Editor:
As the November 2, 1976 General
Election closes in on you, let me appeal to
your mind, rather than emotions:
Does it make any sense to you that
Oregon judges are being appointed by this
state's governor and then being rubber
stamped into judicia~ office by your
punch-card vote, although said judges are
unopposed and you know nothing about
them?
The fact is that your vote is no more
'"democratic" than that being cast in
''undemocratic'' countries!
Join the rest of us and refuse to be
suckered into punching-out a vote for any
of the Oregon judges on your ballot. •

Aviation student's -reply Measure #7 receives
bi - partisan support
To the Editor:
In response to your editorial in the
October 21 TORCH, I would like to offer
the following corrections. I am a second
year aviation m~intenance.. major, •having
completed powerplant in the time the
college says I should complete it in, i.e.,
three terms. To my ~owledge~ I am the •
only student who entered in Fall '75 who
did complete powerplant •in three terms.
Perhaps there were one or two others, but'
Dean of Students Jack Carter is absolutely
incorrect when he says, •'many students
are able to complete the program in the
time the college says they can.'' That I was
able to complete one half 9f the program in
the allotted time was not due to any great
mental prowess, but rather to my having
several prerequisite courses waived from
past credit. I also challenged one required
class. Without the waivers and the
challenge, I do not believe it would have
been possible to complete the progra~. In
addition, I am not taking the five additional
classes for the associate degree. I might
add that I was not working, and was able to
devQte considerably more time, both in and
out of class, than the student who must
hold a job.
,i.
Secondly, the TORCH is remiss in
reporting that students are being helped to
"stay in the program and retain their
benefits if they have not finished the
program but have more than allowable
credits.'' I know two students who are over
the number of allowable credits and it is
true they are finishing the program. The
only problem is they are doing this without
receiving their benefits for an entire term.
..And finally, Ms . Harmon is sadly
mistaken when she says ·no student has
been forced to leave the program because
of the stiicter enforcement. Should she
.wish, I will be happy to furnish her with the
name of a student who did leave because of
the sudden enforcement of this policy.
Once agaio, administrators have reacted
to a situation in such a way as to catch the.
student sinack in the middle of a situation
he had no part in creating. And once
again, the student gets the short end of the
stick.
Administrators and faculty please note:
we students are the ones who make it
possible for you to receive your monthly
paychecks. How about some consideration
for the ramifications your decisions have on
us?
Thank you.

To the Editor:
In · 1974 Common Cau~ was a major
proponent of a state ballot measure which
sought to curb ·conflicts of interest amona
public officials and which was approved by
three-qu~ers of the Oreg9n electorate.
This year it is supporting a companion
piece of legislation, Ballot Measure 17
which calls for partial public financing
state-wide elections. The· intent of both
measures is to teep politics in Oregon
clean,·healthy. and free from the corrosive
influence of wealthy special interest ·
groups.

of

Measure #7 is non-partisan. It has been
endorsed by such local Republicans as
Mary Burrows. Dave Frohnmayer and
Gary Wright. Local Democrats supporting
Measure #7 include Grattan Kerans, John
Stewart, Rosemary Batori, Ted Kulongoski, Nancie Fadeley and Austin Colcord.
Independents such as Jerry Rust have also
given theh- endorsement.
Public participation under Measure #7 is
strictly voluntary. The citizen can choose
to check-off St.SO on his state income tax
form or he can choose not to. Likewise
candidates can choose to accept publi~
funds or to reject them. Funds would go
only to candidates running for state, not
local and county offices, and the amount
each would receive is strictly limited by
law. Funds would be avai]able only for the
general election. not the primaries, and
each candidate would still be able to raise a
matching amount through private contm,.
utions.
The .. Oregon Idea, " popularized by
former Governor McCall. refers to the
capacity of Oregonians·to meet and solve
problems in an orderly way without
creating deep and harmful divisions among
our citizens. Drawing as it does from
proposals first developed and introduced in
Co~gress twenty years ago by the late
Senator Richard Neuberger, Ballot
Measure #7 is an Oregon answer to the
issue of campaign financing, and an
opportunity for our state to use again its
proven capacity for sensible change in
meeting a critical problem of democratic
government.

r'he TORCH also inquired as to the
"commun ist plot" theory that many of the
anti-fluoridationists have used in the past .
Paulson stated that there is no truth to such·
a claim. In fact, says Paulson. many of the
communist countries are fluoridating their
water as a prevention against tooth decay.
Both Paulson and Mosee mentioned Dr.
Yiarnouyiannis in their interviews. Paulson stated that Yiamouy iannis was a
member of the National Health Federation
and a •'biochemist who is not a practicing

LCC!s future funding .up to vote
by Kathleen Monje
•
LCC is asking for a S1.8 million
raise in its tax base on the . Nov. 2
general election ballot. The new
base figure would be S4. 9 million as
specified in Ballot Measure 14.
The college's funding is 41 per
cent state funds, 22 per cent tuition,
and 32 per·cent local property taxes .
The proposed new base would not
change this percentage.
A tax base is the amount of money
that can be assessed by the college,
the city , or any part of local
government without voter approval. ·
The college has been operating from
the same tax base since 1972. At
that time it was $2.6 million,
increased automatically by six per
cent each year to keep pace with
inflation.
At the same time , enrollment at
LCC has jumped by almost 2,500
students, a gain of over 41 per cent.
Because of this increased demand
for instruction. the college has

requested that voters exceed the sjx \ yearly tax levy reque$ts the amount
