Framework for sound business
necessary, says Rep. A1 Ullman
By JAMIE HARTSHORN

A framework for sound busi
ness policy is necessary if the
government is to cope effectively
with new circumstances develop
ing in our world, said A1 Ullman,
U.S. Democratic Representative
from the 2nd district and acting
chairman of the House Ways and
Means Committee.
Ullman spoke Saturday morn
ing in the EMU on “The Relation
ship of Business and Govern
ment.” His talk, followed by a
question and answer period, was
sponsored by the Masters of
Business Administration
Association (MBAA) of the
University College of Business
Administration.
“The Ways and Means Com
mittee deals daily with problems
affecting American business,”
Ullman said, outlining the need to
determine what lies in the public
interest and where this falls in
respect to business. “In our kind
of society, we must live with the
basic assumption that the
capitalistic system is the most
responsive to the needs of the
people and of the nation.”
The committee held hearings
on tax reforms this year, and
Ullman commented that “it
would be impossible to go back to
the days of the simple gross tax.
Tax incentives for business help
maintain operating stability in
the business community,” he
explained, “but these must be
carefully analyzed so tighter
lines can be drawn to curb
abuses.”
Turning to other problems en
countered by his committee, Ull
man said, “one of the first
problems was establishing a
viable trading mechanism for
international trade.” He said two
steps in this direction were
breaking down tariff barriers and
establishing guidelines for
protection of injured industries.
“A special project being under
taken is the establishment of a
Congressional budgeting proce
dure, a vehicle whereby we can
get a hold on the erosion and
inflation taking place in our
economic system,” Ullman said.
“The Constitution placed in
Congress fiscal responsibilities,
and once the budgeting
prodcedure is established this
can put the Executive office into
proper perspective. When asked
a question concerning the
grounds for impeachment of the
President, Ullman said, “We’ve
come to a time when Congress
must directly involve itself in
dealing with Executive
misdeeds.” He continued, “The
first step is to examine the basis
for impeachment in a hard,
responsible light, and then decide
the procedure to be followed.
Simultaneously, under judicially
appointed investigators, the
dismissal of Cox must be
examined. “At the same time,
the office of Vice-President
shouldn’t be held in hostage,”
Ullman explained. “If Ford is
found qualified, Congress should
move ahead to appoint him, and
shouldn’t try to impose a

Democratic president through
impeachment.
Ullman “was shocked” by the
President’s October 26 press con
ference. “It shows that the pres
sure is telling on Nixon, and he’s
losing judgement.” It will be very
difficult for Nixon to continue
another three years as President,
according to Ullman, and per
haps resignation might be the
“easier way out.”
