I a P r'. t (fa i 't : JED RICHARDSON QUINN McKAY McKay, Richardson Ideas Explained at Panel Meeting that Gunn McKay "really Stating does deliver" and will continue to do so on the current CUP crisis, Quinn McKay addressed a group of Com- munications Association executives Thursday and praised his brother for almost pushing the restored measure through the house after Presidents Carter's recent veto of the public works bill. Looking on during Mr. McKay's address was Jed Richardson, Republican candidate for the First Congressional District against Gunn McKay, who also spoke during the meeting claiming that his opponent's tax and voting record were unrealiable. Mr. McKay said his brother should receive credit for initiating the move to restore the funding for the CUP. "This bill is now before the Senate and Gunn has secured $50 million funding for the coming year for the CUP as compared to the $38 million President Carter originally wanted. "Our CUP is intact for this year and will continue on if we can maintain our influence in the Congress," lie said. "I think it's a marvelous thing that we in Utah have a person in Washington in such a position and the first one ever in Utah to be on the Appropriations Committee," he said. single-handed- ly ' In commenting upon his brother's stand on government spending, Mr. McKay said "Gunn feels very strongly that spending in federal and local government must be curbed." He cited the fact that Gunn McKay was riding coach fare on airlines as compared to other congressional people riding first class. "Out of the entire congressional delegation in Washington. Gunn is spending significantly less on operating his office than any of Utah's other congressional representatives," he said. McKay also said his brother's campaign will cost less than half of the amount that Richardson has budgeted in this year's race. Mr. Richardson said he is basically a conservative and that the philosophy in Washington must change. "No one has ever addressed the issue of how government spending can get us out of the mess we are in," he said. "We must be concerned about the political ploys or rhetoric used to represent some of the things you often heaV about in government," he said. Mr. Richardson praised Gunn McKay for being in Washington and trying to salvage the CUP project. "I admire Mr. McKay for being back there and trying to save the CUP rpoject," he said. "But what the voters are constantly asking me the question is how come we have to keep fighting and fighting to keep the Central Utah Project funded," he said. "Why do we continually hear reports of the CUP being funded and then not being funded?" Mr. Richardson said there have been four specific instances reported through the press in Utah that the CUP project has been funded completely. Mr. Richardson said Gunn McKay had voted for a $62 billion deficit spending measure. "They indicate that he is a conservative or moderate, but I can cite 14 specific instances up to Sept. 14 where he votes for increased deficit spending," he said. The Infamous Friday 13th Strikes Again, Good Luck By PATRICK CHRISTIAN If you suddenly sat straight up in your bed seconds after midnight today and began to shake, you may be superstitious. if not Today is that at least well infamous touted day called Friday the 13th. Somehow it is different from Thursday the 12th, Saturday the 14th or just about any other day. Traditionally it's an unlucky day for those who are superstitious and a day to scoff at superstition by those who are not. Like any other day, on Friday the 13th the sun rises and usually sets. People are born on it and others who were not born on it sometimes end up having birthdays on it. For example today is Marie Osmond's birth- He says children take these cultural beliefs with them into adulthood, and said it affects each person differently. "What happens is that there are some people who really believe in it and there are others although they say it's will really feel nothing deep down in their hearts that there is something to ;t. "It's a magical idea," Mr. Macht says. "We all suits will be brought, not by me. but by the states" challenging the legality of the Senate's extensifm action Mrs. Schlafiy said the recent extension is an indication that ERA proponents are losing the battle. "They know they do not have the contemporaneous consensus necessary to pass the amendment" by the March 22. 1979. deadline she stated. "Never again will they be able to get the 35 states which have voted for ERA" because four have already decided to rescind their ratification vote. "I don't believe ERA would get even a simple majority, much less the three fourths super majority required, if put to a referendum," the speaker said. The Senate's action in passing the ratification extension without giving states the right to rescind their prior ERA approval, if they so choose, is like a losing football team demanding that a fifth quarter be played with only the losing team being allowed to carry the ball. Mrs. Schlafiy said. She admitted there are abuses of women's rights in the nation, but said the existing laws are more than adequate to correct these abuses if properly applied. A state - level backlash against the U S Senate's extension of the Equal Rights Amendment ratification deadline has been predicted by Phyllis Schlafiy. a national leader in the anti-ERmovement. In a speech given Wednesday during Brigham Young University's Political Awareness Week, the author and commentator said if passed, the ERA would shift some 70 percent of the states' powers to the federal government while "doing absolutely nothing for the rights of women," other than what is currently being done by existing laws. "Hie ERA extension is patently and deliberately discriminatory." Mrs. Schlafiy stated. "In effect, the federal government is telling the states they have to keep voting until they vote yes." She said her home state of Illinois has voted 14 times on ERA without ratifying it, and. along with 14 other states of the same mind, is undergoing considerable pressure from the federal government to pass the amendment. It becomes clear, Mrs. Schlafiy said, that "those who are for ERA do not believe in equal rights for those who are against ERA." She predicted that "many different law ERA would be a constitutional mandate for a unisex society and would, in fact, r detract from rights and protections women already enjoy, she explained. As examples, women would be subject to the draft in time of war. they would lose the right to be supported by their husbands, they would lose the insurance rate advantages they now have, and they would lose the benefits of labor legislation designed to protect women. "American women are the most fortunate class of women in the world," Mrs. Schlafiy told her audience. They can work if they choose to do so. they can enlist in the armed services if they like, they can marry, they can have children, and they and their children can be supported by -- their husbands. ERA proponents say they want to liberate women. "Liberate them from what?" she asked. "Liberate them from home and children so they can go to work and have a boss tell them what to do? Is that liberation?" "I personally believe the big majority of women would like to be married and have children." the speaker said. Mrs. Schlafiy stated she will continue to fight ERA on all fronts. criminals' necks were stretched, the folklorist said.
