Wednesday, the President followed up on a promise to veto any of what he
claims are protectiam legislation, with the no vote on a bill designed to assist
domestic textile industries, that may spell the end of an effort by U. S.
Senator David Boren to tax foreign oil coming into this country, that the
Sooner solon claims would bring $15 billion in new taxes to America.
The Boren plan would also provide a boost to our slumping oil industry
with cheaper Arab oil about to flood the market. Another benefit of the plan
would be to stabilize the market, with one of the largest petroleum con-
sumers in the world tightening up their purse strings.
With oil becoming an unstable commodity, why doesn’t the Osage Tribe
negotiate with the U. S. Government to sell all their oil at the fair market
value to the Strategic Oil Reserve? We would be helping ourselves locally
while providing a steady supply of oil to Uncle Sam. This idea would also be
appealing to producers, who would explore for oil knowing a buyer is waiting
for their production.
I was only making fun when I suggested the Osage Tribe take over the old
NBC Building and make a bingo hall out of the aging structure. But when
asked about the possibility, yes, it’s true. But this reporter’s knowledge of
tribal habits would say the tribe is not interested in getting involved with any
economic enterprise that is tied to gambling.
Tony Merrell update: Received several significant contributions which
bear mentioning - $500 from First Christian Church; $200 from the Lowell
Thomas Trust in Bartlesville; $100 from the Fraternal Order of Eagles in
Bartlesville, and another $187 from Adventureland Video in Pawhuska, who
have donated well over $1,000 so far this year. God Bless everyone of you.
Received another donation of $$10 from a family in Okay, Oklahoma, along
with a donation of $25 from the kind ladies with the Heeko Club.

Letters to the Editor....
Dear Editor:
Holiday traditions are those happenings at this time of the year which
warm the heart as we follow our heritage. The Christmas Seals from the
American Lung Association of Oklahoma is a long-standing and proud
tradition.
Most of us grew up knowing the real joy of licking those stamps and
proudly sticking them on holiday packages and envelopes. We all wanted to
do our part in whipping tuberculosis, at one time America’s No. 1 killer
disease. Somehow, even as children, we knew we were doing something
good for others during a season dedicated to giving. Those seals just seemed
the right final touch to a lovingly wrapped package or cheery Christmas
card.
Today, donations to Christmas Seals are still funding a great crusade -
against all lung diseases. The work of the American Lung Association of
Oklahoma is more vital, more urgent with each passing year. Because the
sad fact is that the death rates from lung diseases, including lung cancer,
are accelerating while those from other forms of cancer, heart disease and
even accidents are leveling off or even decreasing.
The Christmas Seal people have been around since 1904 as an enduring
tradition fighting lung disease. And Christmas Seals have been a holiday
custom for 78 years, so it’s easy to take them for granted. Many
Oklahomans have already licked their stamps and affixed them to holiday
packages and mail.
However, many other appeals at this time of the year may cause us to
loose some perspective. We wish to encourage each an every citizen of this
great state to remember to join us in this continuing treadition of fighting all
lung disease by contributing genera9usly this holiday season. If you haven’t
sent your checkyet, please do so today. The latest figures show Oklahomans
have contributed only slightly over 48 percent of previous years con-
tributions.
Oklahoma, thank you for your past support and for you continued
sustaining of the effort to control ad prevent all lunch diseases.
Sincerely,
-s- John G. Rogers, Executive Vice President
American Lung Association of Oklahoma.

The House and then the
