ATLANTA — The wife of
Rep. Larry McDonald wants the
U.S. government to take stron-
? er actions against the Soviet
Inion than those recom
mended by President Reagan,
“to prove that the United States
has not become a milquetoast
nation.”
“I’m angry and I want some
action,” Kathy McDonald told
reporters following Reagan's
televised speech Monday night.
Rep. McDonald, chairman of
the John Birch Society and a
nine-year Democratic member
of the House from northwest
Georgia, was among 269 people
who died when a Russian fighter
shot down a Korean Air Lines
flight that strayed over Soviet
territory.
Mrs. McDonald said “We’ve
got to do something strong.”
She said the United States
should cut off grain sales to the
Soviets, stop tourism, and end
gas pipeline equipment sales.
“I think it was a very good
speech that President Reagan
made and I think it should make
the American people furious,”
Mrs. McDonald said. “Once
again, we get a lot of rhetoric,
signifying absolutely nothing. It
was full of information about
the incident, but nothing about
what we’re going to do about it.”
Mrs. McDonald, who is con
sidering running for the 7th Dis
trict congressional seat left
vacant by her husband’s death,
spoke briefly with reporters af
ter watching Reagan’s speech.
She said the sanctions she re
commended would “at least put
a crimp in their (the Soviets’)
economic life.”
Reagan promised in his 1980
campaign not to use grain as an
economic weapon.
McDonald opposed all trade
with communist nations.
“The president himself men
tioned that they shot down an
airliner in 1978,” Mrs. McDo
nald said. “Are they going to
make a habit of doing this every
five years?”
“I call upon the people who
were watching tonight, and who
were concerned about this situa
tion, to write to their representa
tives and the president and de
mand action, not words.”

BORGER — Police have kil
led between five and 10 rattles
nakes in Borger each week for
the last two or three weeks, but
so far no one has been bitten by
the intruders, Police Chief
Arthur Waight said Monday.
“It’s extremely dry and I
think they kind of went into
town to find a cool place,”
Waight said of the snakes,
adding he did not know how
many had been killed by citizens
and not reported.
He said the problem was
worse this year than it has been
in past summers. Only one
snake had to be killed by police
during the holiday weekend,
Waight said.
He predicted Borger would
get rid of its snake problem
when the weather cooled. In the
meantime, citizens finding
snakes call police officers who
snare the snakes and then have
them destroyed.
“They’re hunting us,”
Waight said when asked about
his department’s search for rat
tlesnakes.
