and neighborhoods by making criminals serve
their full sentences, locking up repeat violent
offenders for life and enforcing the death penalty.

A new medicare supplement
rule has been explained by
Cathy J. Weatherford,
Oklahoma Insurance
Commissioner
The Oklahoma Insurance
Department has issued a new
Medicare Supplement Rule
requiring Medicare supple-
ment insurers to offer at least
one of their policies to anyone
who qualifies for Medicare
because of disability.
The rule, which became
effective July 1, 1994, creates
an "open enrollment" for those
people who apply for Medicare
supplement insurance during
a specified six month period.
This means that an insurance
company cannot turn down an
individual who applies for the
policy.
Prior to this new rule the six
month open enrollment period
was available only when an
individual reached age 65 and
first enrolled in Medicare Part
B. Because this open enroll-
ment did not extend to dis-
abled medicare beneficiaries,
Commissioner Weatherford
took steps to establish the new
rule. "While this new rule does
not totally solve the problem
for the disabled, " Weatherford
1, 1994. Following is a brief
summary of the most recent
manufacturing additions in
our area and expansions to the
Oklahoma economic picture.
In Mannford, Baxter Health
Care, which manufactures
about 200 finished products
and components for the medi-
cal profession, such as "spe-
cialty" needles, primarily diag-
nostic or trauma related, is
expanding. Eighty-five people
and 7,000 sq. ft. are expected to
be included.
In Bristow, a residential door
lock-making company is
adding 300 people. Kwikset is
undergoing a multi-million
dollar expansion.
Forty workers will help start-
up a new T-shirt company in
Pawnee. The firm, Pawnee
Tees, will also have 35,000 sq.
ft. of space.
Dave McCurdy has made a difference for Oklahoma families. He's challenged the
system in Washington — and won. He’s fought to make Congress more accountable to
us, the people it serves. Dave says Congress should obey the laws it writes, that staffs
and budgets should be cut.

offer at least one policy to such
individuals and providing for

Oklahoma's Lakes and Resorts
Oklahoma has more man-made
lakes than any other state,
2,000 more miles of shoreline
than the entire Atlantic and
Gulf coasts combined and
more than one million surface
acres of water. One of the best
ways to enjoy Oklahoma's
water is to visit an Oklahoma
resort. Oklahoma’s five state
operated resorts are Lake
Murray and Lake Texoma in
south central Oklahoma;
Quartz Mountain in southwest-
ern Oklahoma; Roman Nose in
northwestern Oklahoma; and
Western Hills Guest Ranch in
northeastern Oklahoma. Pri-
vately operated resorts
include Arrowhead and Foun-
tainhead Resorts on Lake
Eufaula and Shangri-La
Resort on Grand Lake O' the
Cherokees. All offer luxurious
accommodations, restaurants,
golf, tennis, boating, hiking,
swimming pools and a variety
of other recreational opportu-
pities.

We need an honest man as our district attorney. I will not have
any of my relatives on the payroll.
I intend to vigorously prosecute the guilty. The present district
attorney plea bargains out about 90 per cent of his case.
I would appreciate your support in the election on August 23,
for your next district attorney.
