Government ECONOMY

government Economy
Although the past week saw
the House of Representative act
upon a number of important
hllls, consideration also began of
the many appropriation bills
which will provide the funds to
operate the Federal government
In the new fiscal year beginning
on July l. These bills bring vast
numbers of government pro-
grams before the Congress for
debate.
This annual crop of money
pllls is a discouraging setting for
anyone who came to CONGRESS-
win the idea of reducing the
cost OF government. In point of
TACT, such member is almost
swept overheard by the rush of
ms colleagues to increase the
funds for this program. spend
more for that group, and appro
pirate for another. But This
attitude is not as perplexing as
1T may seem. Its inspiration
clearly comes from the con-
stltuency, the people back home
from the tone of many, MANY
letters coming to my office, there
is a desire for more government
rather than less; greater ex-
penses, not savings. There is a
desire for economy perhaps, but
IN some other program. some
other field.
eN-
Farm Supports and
Farm Surplus
There is strong movement
underway to return to the fixed
supports of 90%o of parity on
farm prices despite the fact that
the flexible price support pro-
gram passed last year has not
yet had an opportunity for trial.
l believe that whatever was
good about the flexible price sup
port program when it was enact
ed is still good. In addition. one
thing is certain; we are continu-
ing to suffer from oversupply.
The government has done such
a good job reclaiming Western
lands to fertility, of irrigating
lands that never before could
grow crop of anything, that it
must now restrict the acreage of
wheat and other crops. 1t is
going to be difficult to get nv
support of any Western irriga-
ton projects while the South
eastern Ohio farmer is not per-
mlted to raise enough wheat to
feed his own livestock.
National Security
No less a dilemma confronts
the Congressman who sincerely
wants to represent the desires
of his constituents with regard
to national security. Many have
written urging me to support
measures for a strong military
force. Others have strongly re-
commended that we must COM
pletely disarm and other nations
will follow our example. Some
spend great sums abroad to make
1T economically advantageous for
foreign nations to remain friend
ly and with these funds raise
standards of living and discour-
age the extension of communism
by subversion in allied countries.
Still others adamently condemn
spending abroad when money
might be either saved or used
at home in social welfare pro-
grams for. the needy and under
privileged. One group insists
that we support the full program
of the United Nations, while
another suggests that we should
withdraw from the world organ
iZation since our participation
sacrifices national sovereignty.
Between each of these extremes,
correspondence reflects the vari-
Gus shadings of opinion.
While conflicting attitudes
seem confusing, / have come to
understand that this is the heart
of our representative form of
government in action. Out of this

J|Nx REGATTA
over WEEKEND

Hurricane Connie put the
link on the 41st annual Re-
gatta of Port Clinton Yacht
Club last weekend, and much
of the program had to be can
celled when Saturdays bad
weather called off all events.
Lightnings, Comets and Univer-
sails raced Sunday morning, and an
outboard and cruiser race spanked
afternoon festivities. Bob Engle-
beck's "Meat Wagon" took first
place for Lightnings, Jack Lay was
second and AL Rowland of Colum-
bus Leatherlips Yacht Club was
third.
Winners in Comets were Dick
Faist, Toledo, first; Ed Warner,
Toledo, second; and Henry PAIL, Jr.
Toledo, third. Universals winners
were Carl Schweinzfeir and Bob
Lowery, both PCYC. Jimmy Allan
took first in outboards, John La
Vale second, and George Schade
third. DR.. George Boon took the
cruiser race.
Despite bad weather, there were
between 80 and 40 registrations,
reported Regatta chairman DR.. d.
A. Hablitzel. But many of the skip
pers, discouraged by Saturdays
weather, did not stay over. The
Regatta Ball was highly successful
Saturday night.
A Comet owned by C. E. Johns
tipped over, and spar on Light
ming owned by Larry Imber broke
but there were no other mishaps
despite the bad weather. Both the
disabled boats were towed to safety
by Chuck Wilson skipper of the
cruiser "Chuck-Lu" who along with
shippers Cliff Stevenson, Kenny
Black, Bill Allan and Corwin Hab-
litzel in their cruisers patrolled the
race course in event any mishaps
might occur.
Aid Of the Port Clinton Outboard
Boating Club was offered the Re.
gatta Saturday by Program Director
John Hagerty, when for time an
alternate course up the river was
being considered in order to run
the races. Towing of the boats to
the course under discussion would
have been necessary, and Mr. Hag
erty offered assistance if towing
was to be done. The idea was
abandoned, however, and race.
cancelled for the day.

ance in the 25-lap feature contest

nal with Windy Bailey jumping to

position. Bailey hung on until the
tenth lap when. Norris Reed went
by on the outside to become num-
ber one man. Reed led for one lap
until he tangled with Bud Harring-
ton on the second turn losing three
positions in the process AS Reed
was losing ground Bailey went
back to the front which he held un-
til the 18th lap, when Martin, who
had worked his way up from 18th
starting slot, took charge On the
next turn of the half-mile oval
Paul Walker moved into second
place where he worked his way
steadily towards the lead car until
at the checkered flag, to the cheer
ing delight of the standing crowd,
he was only half a car length in
back of Martin, to finish a dis
heartening second. Walker drove
