this notes, however, that the m ilitary
balance of power is shifting
precariously in favor of the Soviet
bloc.
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

Portland adding $2,362 and
Gresham contributing $2,405
MSD's first phase of the

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
