Every worker new must have higher wages to support the family. And the spiral goes upward. Every time a wage hike is awarded under a contract, the prices must come too to meet the demand. And then comes the stopping point. Buyers start to resist. Sales dwindle, and workmen are off the job.$ We cant blame the President for the spiral, but we can do our part to help solve the situation. And as individuals, our help will be only slightly felt in the great United States. But we can get off the presidents back and stand by his side and give him every bit of help we can to help restore this old United States to its proper state of economy and prosperity with liberty and justice and energy for all!

We surely do . . . and for a few minutes, wed like to explain why we feel this way. Gerald Ford became president of the United States about six months ago, and the inflationary spirals for which hes getting the heat put on started months (and years) before that. And, in addition to the inflationary spirals, the economic situation which the country is in at the presnt time also started long before that, although some will not admit it. Many economists could see the situation coming-some tried to became as the ostrich and blind themselves to it, hoping it would go away. President Ford seems to be getting the blame for both of these situations even though he has had little time and cooperation to effect any control. On the other hand hes had and is getting gobs and gobs of advice from every Tom, Dick, and Harry on how to do it. We believe in Americas ability to adjust and go on, and we know that there are the countrys best economists at the side of the President to advise and assist in the solution.

We bring to you this little bit of Lincoln philosophy which is more potent today than it was the day he penned it: LET REVERENCE For the laws be breathed by every American mother to the lisping babe that prattles on her lap; let it be taught in schools, in seminaries, and in colleges; let it be written in primers, spelling books, and in almanacs; let it be preached from the pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in courts of justice.

There are about 200 Senate bills and 215 House We bills. The Public School Appropriations Committee meets Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 to 12 a m. Your superin-tendant- s are giving their input. It is hoped we can work out a small school finance formula, which would enable our schools to continue and expand a good educational program. We really had a good public hearing on school reorganization, which was attended by many of our people. Their appearance and input was much appreciated. The utility bill which would allow increased rates to be passed onto consumers has been amended so that there will have to be public hearings, and more safeguards are placed to protect the public. A bill to make mani.itory gonorrhea cultures in pre marital exams went down to defeat. I feel this was an unnecessary procedure in all cases. We only had 7 cases of gonorrhea reported in my area. This business should be left to doctors and not be mandatory. Many bills are awaiting consideration. Among them an ambulance act which places the whole state under the law, previously only those counties of 40.000 and over were affected. We are getting our ambulance people trained and we're getting good ambulances. The cloud seeding bill is in the Senate. I hope we can pass it.
