Eshleman Announces Poll
Congressman Edwin D.
Eshleman recntly announced the
results of his most recent poll.
Eshleman distributed the poll
in January as a part of his
newsletter and also had the
cooperation of several
newspapers in his District who
published the questionnaire so
that their readers could register
their opinions with the 16th
District Representative.
Eshleman said that he was
pleased that over 800 people
clipped the questionnaire out of
local newspapers and sent it to
him.
“I think these numbers show
how important the cooperation of
the newspapers is to the success
of this effort,” he said.
“It also indicates that the
format used by most newspapers
who ran the poll was conducive to
people clipping it out and mailing
it to me.”
Eshleman said that the return
rate on the questionnaires sent
with his newsletter was about 15
percent. In all Eshleman mailed
out about 7,500 newsleters.
“That’s higher than the
national average,” he said, “and
tells me that there continues to be
a better than average interest in
national affairs in the 16th
District.”
The poll results in percentages
were as follows:
1. Where do you stand regar
ding Nixon Administration
policies in the following areas?
a. Vietnam 76 Agree 16
Disagree 8 Not Sure.
b. China Trip 75 Agree 15

c. National Defense 63 Agree 18

d. Pollution 62 Agree 17

sanded, it should be thor

New York Eggs
Wednesday. March 8
Prices generally trended
fractionally higher on medium
and smalls, held relatively un
changed on large. Receipts in
creased. Floor stocks are fully
adequate on all classes and
heavier in instances. Buying
activity is improved in some
quarters, no better than fair in
others. Movement though
moderate, is insufficient to clear
available stocks. Out of town call
is lessening as handlers take a
wait and see attitude before
making new commitments.
Carton movement is fair to
slightly improved.
Energy and Ecology
Needs Should Balance
“The country must avoid
an ‘environmental protec
tion overkill' which could
stall the expansion of en
ergy plants," Walter Rogers,
president of the Indepen
dent Natural Gas Associa
tion, asserted in a year-end
statement.
He said that the United
States is entering a period
when it will have to balance
its environmental needs
against its energy require
ments.
Confronted with soaring
demands, Mr. Rogers said the
industry must increase our
efforts to find and develop
new domestic sources of
natural gas and other en
ergy.
The environmental prob
lems associated with pro
duction of energy should be
met and solved quickly,
“without undue delay or
prolonged public debate,"
Rogers concluded.
