Spencer said, have criticis ed attem pts to reduce governm ent d uplication and regulations without ful ly realizing bureaucratic waste involved and govern ment savings goal to con trol inflation "By the summer of 1984 I predict the economy w ill be back (strong) with timber and b u ild in g in d u s try (healthy),*’ he said. “To do this the federal government has got to cut itself down, but you can't reduce federal programs without repercussions in the economy and from special interest groups ’* One of the biggest critics of government cut backs, he said, has been the En v iro n m e n ta l P ro tec tio n Agency Not ironically, Spencer also serves as Nor th w e s t re g io n a l ad ministrator of the EPA. Staff photo He's cooperated in his own department by cutting o n e -th ird of a ll a d ministrative jobs "The bottom line." he said, "is we could cut a third of the administrative jobs and still get some things done two or three times as fast," with fewer in boxes to slow paper work. Since 1978 until recent job cuts, he said, his depar ment had increased 87 per cent with no new laws to warrant added personnel Cutting EPA pollution compliance forms on im ported cars and manufac tu r e r s , h o w e v e r, has brought sharp criticism in th e N o rth w e s t w h e re Spencer says citizens take a "mom and apple pie" protective view of their clean environment. "People who dump il legally won’t list it on an EPA form ," however So Spencer substituted site in v e s tig a tio n s fo r c o m pliance form reviewers "As we go through the r e g u la to r y re fo r m process," he said, "we ll save some $7 billion." S p e n c e r sa id th ese government cuts in red tape, personnel to shuffle paper and duplication by government agencies could re d u c e in f la t io n and restore a strong economy He cited a credit squeeze created by government ty ing up 70 percent of all loan money, with competition for the remaining 30 p er cent available loan money d riv in g in te re s t ra te s higher Spencer said there had been m a n y in s ta n c e s where stringent govern ment regulations didn't produce any cleaner water tr e a t m e n t p la n ts in hometowns. He cited the case of a $13 m illion Alaskan sewer with 67 custom ers. He said it became too costly for m any, who m eanwhile legally couldn't return to holding tanks He said the result smelled. Federalism proposes to turn many costly federal programs to the states to operate "Your governor here has told me repeatedly. W e il take on the programs we can use. G ive us the money, if you have it, and don’t send a bunch of peo ple to look o ver our shoulders to see how we ad minister the program,” ’ he noted Spencer sa il the Nor thwest economy wouldn't begin to look better for another 12-18 months.

PETE CARLSON 668-4101 SANDY Open Sunday A Evenings etirement. Are you ready for yours? A comfortable retirement isn’t something to hope for. It’s something to plan for. Today. That’s why IBS is ready to help you with a new Individual Retirement Account program beginning January 1, 1982. R A retirement plan you can depend on. IBS is offering a fixed rate IRA at 12% interest for 30 months. This interest rate is comparable to variable rate plans and gives you the added security of a guaranteed interest rate on your money. Keogh plans are also available for IBS cus tomers who are self- employed. At that time, IRAs will be available to all wage earners, even if you already have a pension plan. The new IRA. It's good for you. What you want to contribute to your retirement is up to you. An IBS plan can start as low as $50 per month. By law, a single person will be allowed to deposit up to $2, (XX) a year; a working couple can set aside $4,000 and $2,250 a year is allowed for couples with a non-working spouse. And best of all, you don’t pay federal taxes on the money deposited in your IRA. Fed eral tax on the interest is paid only on the amount withdrawn each year of your retirement. Plan for your tomorrow . . . today. Now is the time to start planning your retirement. No matter what your age is. And at IBS we’re ready to help. We’ll be glad to ex plain all the different IRA options to you and help you decide what is best for your future. Stop in today and be ready for tomorrow.
