Valuable
Energy and Money
At Home.
(:lose and insulate open furr downs.
Furr downs are found
where the ceiling has been
lowered.., like in the
kitchen and bathroom.
Unless properly con-
stzucted, furr downs could
be wasting valuable energy
and money in your home.
Here's how:
hat's all there is to it.
ealing and insulating
len fia'r downs will save
valuable energy and money.
When uninsulated furr downs on interior
walls are left open.., hot and cold air seeps
down into the house from the attic and
makes your heating and air conditioning
work harder to keep you comfortable,
So, when this happens, your home wastes
valuable energy.., and moneyyear'round.
You can stop most of this waste and the cost
for materials is usually small. Open furr down
areas should be sealed off from the attic by
using plywood or sheetrock. Then, add
insulation on top of the "capped" furr down
to keep hot and cold air from getting in and
out of your home.

Gov. Boren wants people to decide
Excerpts from Governor
David Baron's address to the
people expresses his feelings
about a "very serious prob-
lem for our state." He sees a
need for the government to
be closer to the people and
that the state is moving
toward a full-time profes-
sional Legislature which is
considering more and more
laws.
If the people wish to vote
on this issue the Governor
says the people must speak
out. "Let your elected
representatives know
how you feel" about the fol-
lowing situation.
"Under our Constitution,
the Legislature may be
called into Special Session
by the Governor if it does not
complete its work within the
constitutional limit.
On Thursday, I issued an
Executive Order calling the
Legislature back into ses-
sion, beginning at noon
Monday, June 13, to finish
the work which was left
undone.
A strong bill to reform the
unemployment compensa-
tion system in this state was
passed. We have said to
those genuinely unemploy-
ed, "the state is going to
provide adequate benefits
and protect your reserve
funds." To those who
simply do not want to work
we have said something
blunt and refreshing, "if you
are just too lazy to work,
don't expect the taxpayers to
foot the bill for you."
A Sunset Bill, as strong as
any in the United States was
passed. This bill presents an
opportunity and a challenge
to future sessions of the Leg-
islature to use its review
mechanism to streamline
and modernize some state
agencies and abolish un-
needed ones. The Sunset Bill
would do away with state
agencies that cannot justify
themselves and their pro-
grams to you the taxpayers.
In the area of Workers'
Compensation, a major step
toward reform was taken.
As with any comprehensive
bill, it is not perfect, but
it is an important step in
the right direction. For too
many years this system, very
unfair to both the injured
worker and the employer,
has cried out for reform. We
have started the process of
cleaning up the system this
year.
Definite moves toward
reform of the auto tax system
have been accomplished. A
bill to encourage the use of
solar energy, through tax
incentives, has been passed.

many areas. Educational
television will be brought to
areas of the state not now re-
ceiving it. Future genera-
tions will enjoy the benefits
of an expanded trails pro-
gram and natural heritage
inventory which have been
started this year.
We have again responded
to the need for better law
enforcement with significant
increases in funding for the
Highway Patrol, Bureau of
Narcotics, and the O.S.B.I.
Unfortunately, the list of
things undone is also signifi.
cant. Although the Legisla-
ture has been meeting
since January, 56 per cent of
the funds needed for vital
governmental services were
not acted upon when the
Legislature adjourned.
I have called the Legisla.
ture back in order to meet
the pressing needs in such
areas as funding our public
schools, the highway pro-
gram, and corrections. The
Legislature, in addition,
must still act on funding the
Tax Commission, the
Tourism and Recreation De-
partment, the Historical
Society and" our District
Courts.
I am very concerned about
this trend toward longer and
longer sessions and a full-
time Legisla(ure.
The amount of time that
the Legislature meets has
gone up by 50 per cent in the
first ten years under annual
sessions. In recent years, the
trend has been even strong-
er.
The number of proposed
new laws was over 5,000 un-
