Show WEEKLY REFLEX-DAV- IS NEWS JOURNAL, JUNE 24, 1976 im nil nil In m The Humphrey-Hawkin- s Full Employment and Balanced Growth Act is legislation which would politicize the economy by creating an economic police state, Senator Jake Gam said today at the conclusion of hearings on the bill before the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban (R-U- t) Affairs Committee. FOR A LONG time now the economy has fluctuated from inflation to recession primarily because of government interference. Now the bill Humphrey-Hawkin- s to repeal the business cycle and limit unemployment to 3 percent by making the government the employer of last resort. The economic plan this bill would implement is typical of fiscal structure in the socialist countries who use economic planners. Instead of letting the law of supply and demand and the free proposes r be eliminated as the legislation would require the Chairman of the Federal Reserve to report monetary policy to the President and adjust it as the market system work, the makes the government decisions. NOT ONLY DOES the legislation severely hamper the free enterprise system, it is highly inflationary. Workers hired under the would be paid either program minimum the wage, prevailing rate of pay for public jobs or top union wages - the wage rate whichever is highest. This is estimated to cost up to $45 billion dollars a year calculated with present unemployment figures. It has also been estimated 10 million workers who are making less than the highest wage in private jobs will become unemployed so they can go to work for the government, the employer of last resort, and receive higher salaries. I AM ALSO concerned that the independence of the Federal Reserve Board would Davis-Baco- President demands - thus politicizing this countrys monetary policy. Adoption of the bill is not what the people of this nation want or what they are willing to accept. If planning is needed we should concentrate our efforts on the truly needy - the unemployed who need education and training and remove the professional poor from the public payrolls. 1 AM GOING TO fight this bill and hope it is defeated. It would be a tragedy to the American people if it is not. Humphrey-Hawkin- -- n s IN A BAD WAY certainly hope Im sick, said the unhappy man to his doctor. Id sure hate to feel like this if Im well.
