effort to conceal the origin OF this
booklet. this column can only suS-
pcct that the sponsor did not want
to be known. From which it's easy
to assume that our bureaucrats
are at it again-as they have been
in many other bureaucratic selling
jobs.
Regardless of how person feels
about this Medicare program itself,
he has to admit that this is shah
by and contemptible way of pro-
noting it, Simply put, here is a
method of using your tax money
and mine to put over a scheme to
Derpetuate themselves in power at
our expense.
Despite all the sentimental
mouthings we hear on the subject,
the ugly fact is that the Medicare
promoters are more concerned with
themselves than the nations vel
fare. Bureaucrats are bucking for
perpetuation and growth of their
bureaucratic empire The liberal
crowd of politicians is looking for
another segment of people who
will feel obligated for handouts
and vote accordingly. Eventually
they expect the number of be-
holden supporters to be sufficient
to keep them in power indefinitely.
Fortunately, however, the scheme
doesn't seem to be working in this
case. Reports from senators and
in Washington in
dicate that their mail shows big
ratio of opposition and resentment
to Medicare. The public is gradual
ly wising up to the fact that well
fare bureaucracy is more of bur-
den than boom They're seeing
that the benefits returned are puny
by comparison with the cost in
taxes. They're seeing also the
senseleSS bother and inconvenience
resulting from federal red tape
and Snoopervision. Enterprise,

Federal Jury Indicts
Hafer On Assault

John j. Hafer, Cumberland fu-
neral director, store owner, and a
Garrett county landowner, is un-
der indictment by a federal grand
jury on a charge of assault on an
internal revenue investigator.
The indictment was returned
Tuesday in Baltimore on a charge
which resulted from an incident
in Cumberland Friday, June l.
Hafer was arrested June on a
warrant charging him with assault
ing Milton Kyhos, special agent IN
the intelligence section of the IRIS.
He posted $4,000 property bond be-
fore IT, S. Commissioner James AL
fred Avirett but will be brought
before him again since the bond
covered only his appearance in the
Allegany county court and not the
Ecltimore court.
Thomas b. Carney. assistant
chief Of the IRIS intelligence di-
vision Baltimore, said the incident
on which the charge was based
took place at Kyhos' office in the
Cumberland post office. Carney
said Hafcr came to the office un-
announced while KyhoS was con-
ducting an official investigation.
Kyhos said Hafer walked in and
began swinging at him. Kyhos
ducked three punches and was not
hit Hafer left when a postal in
spector and another IRIS agent
came into the office, Kyhos said
Hafer has been under investiga-
tion on income tax matters, Agent
Kyhos said.
Hafer is owner of the Happy
Hills Farm and restaurant near
Grantsville. Since his trip to Rus
sia a few years ago he has been a
speaker at various organization
meetings in this county and is we'll
known here.

small bought stocks with little re-
gard for their real earning power
until the ratio between earnings
and the selling price of the stock
reached a ratio of 20-1. Until 1850,
the usual rule of thumb was 10-1.
In addition, the confidence of the
business community in general has
been wobbly since the Presidents
swift move against Big Steel and
the prevailing impression that the
present Administration is antitrust
ness.
Finally, the national economy has
several obvious soft spots, includ-
ing the following: % nearly mil
lion unemployed; ~ an IL percent
increase in business failures; go
the biggest one-year increase in
mortgage foreclosures 40 percent)
since 1882: "a farmers costs at an
all-time high with the parity ratio
at its lowest in 20 years; go the
highest cost of living in U. S. his
tory: and 90 a continuing outflow
of gold from our shores.
Small wonder that the stock
market should have plummeted un-
der such presSures. 1t therefore re-
mains for all parties concerned to
bring about an improvement in the
economic situation which will move
the nation forward again. A few
obvious suggestions come to mind:
ID investors should exhibit more
common sense and less avarice in
their buying so that the earnings
ratio drops to more realistic
level; t2) the President should
make firm OvertureS to the Ameri-
can business community by deed
as well as word to reassure them
that he is not anti-busineSS; and
80 the Administration should en-
courage our capitalistic system to
eliminate such stigmas as unem-
ployment, business failures, mort
gage foreclosures and all the rest.
And the best stimuli | know are
balanced budget, reduced Federal
spending, and tax reform to en-
courage more profits, more jobs
and more prosperity for every
American.

Bus Subsidy Bill
Meets Opposition

The House today postponed
until Wednesday a vote on a
bill to grant the D. c. Transit
company q subsidy for carrying
District school children.
Opposition to the bill. which
passed the Senate last year,
cropped up Immediately.
Representative Harsha, Re-
publican Of Ohio. charged that
D. c. Transit is already heavily
subsidized. He added the pas
sage Of the bill would set q
dangerous precedent by invit-
ing other public utilities to ask
Congress for similar subsidies.
But Representative Broyhill,
Republican Of Virginia, arguing
for the bill. attempted to ex-
plain that the bill merely
shifted the burden of financing
the cost Of transporting school
children at a reduced fare from
transit riders to all the city's
taxpayers.
Representative Haley, Demo-
crat Of Florida, called the bill
a bad piece Of legislation" and
added that o. Roy Chalk, presi-
dent Of the transit company,
had once claimed "he would
never ask Congress for one
dime to run the transit COM
pany."
