I have received letters from many small businessmen in Utah who have been hurt by the GSA policy of acting as a central purchasing agent for all goods and services used by local government institutions receiving federal grants, he said. What this practice amounts falls more heavily on small busito is the setting up of a giant nesses throughout the country. federal PX which is contrary to free the enterprise system and threatening to thousands of small businesses throughout the country, Lloyd said. THE GSA was set up to service and supply federal agencies, and in my opinion the As executive of agency has greatly overstepped the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, Arch Booth serves as a spokesman for American business.

Think of the worst law you can imagine, consistent with our form of government. Not a law already on the hooks, but one that is purely the product of your imagination. The possibilities are so limitless that even picking the worst that might he legislated in a say, taxes, particular category or welfare, or regulatory authorwould he a hard job. Howity ever, it is certainly not difficult to conjure up a selection to choose from. NOW, WITH thos legislative horrors firmly in your inind, ask yourself if you have ever thought of being grateful for the things your elected representatives do not do for you. We Judging a Legislature have a dangerous Americans hangup when it comes to judging a legislature, one that stems from our usually admirable passion for efficiency. It goes like this: Efficiency is good. Productivity is a sign of efficiency. Therefore, a productive legislature is an efficient legislature is a good :ure. And how do we measure the productivity of a legislature? By the number of laws it passes, of course. which a Congress THUS, passes few lawst is labeled a do-- " and contlem- nothing Congress, ned out of hand for it. A legislator who introduces few laws is considered derelict, or worse, ignored. The same attitude colors our perception of the Presidency. A President who proposes no radical social programs, engages in no dangerous overseas adventures, and keeps his hands off Congress is called a weak President. And we all know that weak Presidents are bad. . . dont we? IN SHORT, why is it that we are unable to give credit for well- alone? leaving enough Most of us are quite willing to admit that there is often the wisest policy. Instead, the way things stand now, we judge our politicians the same way we judge our movie stars by the amount of expo- they get (although, so far anyway, there is a considerable in what is getting exposed). And the amount of exposure a politician gets is de- termined by the number of things does, whether they needed doing or not. Perhaps politics should be- come even more like Hollywood at least to the extent of adapt- the motion picture code rat- ing system: TV appearances by stable politicians in would be considered suitable for family viewing, while demagogues snapping at the heels of higher office would have appear over the legend recommended for mature voters only.

Politics and Publicity The Congress will soon come to grips with some Major Issues. Follow- ing the introduction of many Bold Solutions, there will be much debate on the Critical Problems of Our Times. And the risk we all run, every session, is that out of all this will come laws written for their initial pub- Hcity impact, rather than as reasonable approaches to com- plex problems. Rarely has a Congress faced - issues better suited to this head-sur- e line grabbing process: Welfare reform, health care, revenue ing. Nor does it improve the chances that sweet reason will, after all, prevail, to have several legislators running for the Presi-h- e zens, siinplv because no one will risk a by image negative pointing that out.
