By Lee Ruwitch If the economy doesn't pick up soon, look for the administration to stimulate it with a tax cut. Since business has failed to produce the needed revenue to bold the 1971-7- 2 budget deficit to $11.6 billion, the final deficit could easily reach $25 billion and Nixon knows it. The Federal government sinks deeper and deeper into debt, mortgaging the future of the next generation. The Vietnam War is the longest and the most expensive in U.S. history. The Federal debt will soon be $420 billion with an annual interest burden of $20 billion. By July 1972 our debt could easily reach $450 billion. Anxiety Overseas are No wonder foreigners over anxious holding $45 becoming in dollars billions of their vaults. Each month this sum grows larger as Eurodollars borrowed at high rates are repaid to foreign banks. A run on the dollar could result in some fireworks.

Probation Program Rowow also called for a "massively expanded" probation system that "could tap all those resources for education, em- ployment and training that almost every community has in greater quantity and quality than the most expensive institution." He said probation, which is potentially much more effective and is cheaper than institutionalization, remains vir- tually "an unexplored frontier for rehabilitation." He cited the need for volunteer involvement and "extensive" participation by the private sector in providing manpower services and job opportunity for offenders. A Kennedy Space Center Dr. George S.

The temptation to simply inspect the sites and choose the "best" is always present. Yet there are dangers in such piecemeal analysis. The economic effects are ordinarily unfortunate. Simply collecting "facts" about the sites is useless unless the following steps are rigorously observed: The Specific Definition of Objectives Hhis means more than general statements or enumeration of aims, but specific and detailed statements of the conditions which will exist if the mission is accomplish- force a national agreement. The Appeals Court ruling would allow individual strikes if the purpose was to bring about a national agreement, but would bar such strikes if they were aimed at formulating separate contracts with each railroad. At the same lime, the court said the railroads could retaliate for an individual strike with a national lockout. Management also would then be :ree to put into effect changes in work rules' to which the UTU vigorously objects. The railroads say present work rules, some dating to the 19th century, amount to nothing more than fealherbedding. The case grew from a one-da- y nationwide strike Dec. 10 by the UTU and three other rail unions. That was stopped by congressional and court action. The three other unions have since settled with the railroads. The DAILY RECORD Subscribe Today Telephone 487-065- 1 objectives themselves are useless. It also means that collecting facts may be incomplete since gathering process lacks classes into data can be put, and the important questions may not be answered. It Produces Over Reliance The fact that one region or area has greater resources to devote to provision of "facts" leads to a bulk weight production of proximate facts and weights the decision in the direction of bulk, fervor of advocacy, or convenience.

In a major setback for the Nixon Administration's claims of broad wiretap authority, the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld April 8, the Constitution's 4th Amendment prohibition against unreasonable search and seizure. On a 2 vote, the appeals panel ruled that the Justice Department must disclose the contents of the 3-- The Appeals Court decision, written by Judge Harold Leventhal, noted that UTU President Charles Luna told Pratt that the threatened walkout against the two lines was intended to bring economic pressure against the industry as a whole to The Statement of Criteria, or Tests of Preferredness To omit these means that the on Proximate Data contract dispute with the nation's ed. railroads by allowing it to strike Important questions may not be individual railroads in an effort to answered. obtain a national agreement.

The court's majority said a major consideration in its ruling "was the fact that disclosure may well prove to be the only effective protection against illegal wiretapping available to defend 4th Amendment rights of the American public." The Justice Department had no immediate comment, but was considered virtually certain to carry the case to the Supreme Court, if only because two other federal courts have ruled in its favor on the issue. In appealing U.S. District Judge Damon J. Keith's ruling Jan. 27, the Justice Department asked that if it lost the appeal it be advised before the wiretapped conversations were turned over to Plamondon. It said that disclosure of the conversations would prejudice the national interest and asked the Appeals Court to have the opportunity to determine whether to appeal further, let the conversations be made public, or drop the case. The Appeals Court did not order the government to make immediate disclosure of the conversations. voting separately. Nine judges constitute a quorum and decisions are reached by majority vote. The Court is permanently in session, except during judicial vacations. In arguing the case before the 6th Circuit, the government contended that "when the President . . . determines that certain individuals or groups pose a danger to the internal security of the United States as to warrant the use of electronic surveillance to gather intelligence information concerning the ac- tivities and plans of such individuals and groups, the 4th Amendment does not require the additional safeguard of a prior warrant." Justice Department lawyers argued that the President has just as much authority to order domestic wiretaps when he feels the nation's security is endangered as he does when the danger comes from a foreign government. But the majority of the appeals judges, in an opinion written by Judge George Edwards, said: "We hold in dealing with the threat of domestic subversion, the executive branch of our government is subject to the limitations of the 4th Amendment of the Constitution when undertaking searches and seizures for oral communications by wire. "We hold that the District Court Judge properly found that the conversations of the defendant ... Plamondon were illegally intercepted and cannot hold that the disclosure order is in abuse of judicial discretion." But in dissent, Judge Paul C. Weick agreed with the government's claims that only the President has enough information to know whether a domestic group is a danger to security. |
