The American people are going to have to face up to the fact that the rate of growth of “people programs’’ is outstripping the ability of the economy to generate taxes to sustain them. These programs are increasing in cost by something like nine per cent per year. This is a bigger increase than the productivity of the average worker. We’re digging ourselves into an ever-deeper hole. I t ’s a common shibboleth that “ as the richest and most powerful nation on the face of the earth” , we can afford to give cradle to the grave security to everyone. The economic realities of 1975 seem to say otherwise and dictate savings in every govern ment program. This, in an obvious over simplification, may be the focus of the disagreements between Pres. Ford and Congress. The nation must balance its assets and its obligations. ago.

OREGON. TH U R S D A Y . FEB R U A R Y 6. 1975 The pattern of differences—or w a rfa re , to be m ore precise— between President F o rd and Congress is beginning to appear. There seems very little likelihood of agreement between the two. Ford proposes, Congress opposes. Or vice versa. Whatever is done to resuscitate the nation’s economy, sacrifices are going to be needed. Pres. Ford seeks to spread the sacrifices over most everyone. Congress, for its part, wants to lim it those sacrificing to the business com m unity and the relatively well-to-do. Congress attacks the F ord proposals as hurting “the poor and the elderly,” It takes a politically popular, if not responsible, position. Further, Congress seems deter mined to do most of the budget squeezing from the m ilitary. The administration contends that the m ilitary budget already has been squeezed to an irreducible minimum. Again, Congress takes the p o litic a lly popular position. I t ’s always easy to flay the m ilitary and At present, Denhart operates a small producing well which furnishes water for four homes that have already been con structed in the subdivision. o oo The first U S . census (1790) Approval by the commission includes the four-inch, 7,000 foot line extension line, and a r O r f /c e or Ó T A T E E N O /N E E R The Battle Lines Are Drawn Utility Commissioner HONEY DON'T, an Appaloosa owned by Alice Smith at Gresham, models a blanket which will be given to the designer of the winning poster advertising the March IS horse show sponsored by the 4-H Horse Leaders Association.
