Reed spoke to the group in place of Secretary of State A. Ludlow Kramer, who had been scheduled as the speaker. The committee, Reed said ,was created in 1967 and was made up of 18 appointed citizens and eight elected officials. During its investigations, Reed said, the group visited some 25 communities in the state and talked to numerous people. Up to now, Reed said, it had been the thought that urban problems were confined to the state's larger cities, and, this was where the effort and pro- grams were concentrated. The committee found, he said, that many smaller cities have very serious problems, and, that they do not have the financial or other resources to set up the programs to deal with these prob- lems as are found in the larger cities. The Committee, Reed said, made some 193 recommendations after its investigations by its six committees. The State of Washington, Reed said, is one of the most repidly growing in the nation. Most of this growth is concentrated in the King, Pierce and Snohomish county areas, while rural areas in Eastern Washington are los- ing population. Another conclusion the com- mittee reached, Reed said, was that government cannot solve most of these problems without the cooperation of the private sector of the economy. Reed said that the committee found that despite the state's booming economy, there are still a certain group which is in a state of chronic unemployment. The investigations revealed, Reed said, that programs which Slade Gorton Speaks At Lincoln Day Dinner Here lib Those who attended the Ma- son County Republican Lincoln Day Dinner Tuesday night were urged by Attorney General Slade Gorton to take a fresh look at the principles which guided Lincoln, whose birth date was being celebrated.

He was later trans- ferred to the County Jail on orders of juvenile authoi'ities. Several empty glue tubes and two plastic bags were found in the youth's room. must stop and think about those principles in looking for the so- lutions to the problems which face the nation today. He commented that Ed Pratt, the Seattle civil rights leader who was shot recently, was kill- ed by someone who did not think about the principles on which the nation was founded. Gorton commented that the speech Tuesday night was his first Lincoln Day address as At- torney General. Warren Edinger, chairman of the Mason County Republican Central Committee, opened the meeting. William O. Hunter was master of ceremonies for the program and introduced Gotten. Hunter also read telegrams from Go:. Daniel J. Evans and C. Montgomery Johnson, state Republican chairman.
