For mer President Hoover said Wed nesday night the greatest dan ger to the nation at this time is inflation. The 82-year-old statesman said taxpayers are "groaning" over government spending. Pressure groups must be made to lay off Congress so the government can reduce its huge money outlay, he said. Mr. Hoover, here for a three week rest and some fishing in the Florida Keys, said, "The purchasing power of the dollar is down every month."' If the public will take some of the "special interest groups' pressures off Congress," he said, then the nation's lawmak ers might "have a better chance to reduce the spending program. The former President also called for congressional approv al of recommendation of the non-partisan Hoover Commission for streamlining and moderniz ing government operations. Mr. Hoover said the recommenda tions would save billions of dollars. DOUBLE STAMPS on Wednesday FRI., SAT. AND WILMS!
