All right, By Conn, lets see what the Office of Management and Budget says about the cost of federal regulation: The total estimated cost, says OMB, is about $130,000,000,000. One hundred thirty billion dollars a year. In other words, it would take 130,000 men, each carrying a million dollars, to transport the cash necessary to pay for one years federal regulation. And how does that affect you, the ' taxpayer? Well, for one thing.it causes an increase in the price of everying you buy whether it be a new car, a home, a bag of groceries, the college tuition for your child, or anything else. - I mentioned recently that it costs almost every college and university in American several hundred dollars per year per student just to respond to federal regulations and red tape. Duke University, for example, spends nearly $500 per year - per student! - for this purpose. -- Senator Jesse Helms (N.C.)

When St Germains name was published in the series dealing with Baumgart s death, the indignant conIssue Germane gressman denied he had anything to do with it, said he By Robert M. Bartell WASHINGTON, D.C. (Liberty Lobby News Service) Fernand St Germain is a veteran Democratic representative from Rhode Island. He is third in seniority on the important House Banking Committee and he sits on the committee that approves appropriations for the Federal Election Commission. When the FEC began harassing The SPOTLIGHT for campaign irregularities involving its exposure of Carters ConCocaine it was readily nection, apparent that a great deal of confusion exists within the commission and without concerning just what is required and what is not. Tins has worked to the beneSt fit of Representative Germain. FEC did not like The of SPOTLIGHTS series articles last year concerning President Jimmy Carters connections with the hard rock-dru- g culture. The story, absolutely ignored by the mass media, infuriated the Carter camp. In fact, Morris Dees, a Carter confidant, swore that he intended to wipe out the right wing, ostensibly by wiping out Liberty Lobby and The SPOTLIGHT. The first attack came from the FEC, which claimed that campaign laws were violated by The SPOTLIGHT allegedly soliciting funds to defeat Jimmy Carter. The case is still pending, but meanwhile, a most interesting has taken development place. Rep. Femand St Germains name first came up in The SPOTLIGHT while ft was the investigating of Merle strange death Baumgart, a well known lobbyist with ties to bankers, CANAL TREATY Boise: Idaho's U.S. Senator Jim McClure today said a new Panama Canal Treaty and the manner in which it is being unveiled constitutes a kind of cowardice that is not in keeping with American traditions. The Idaho Senator said he is considering a lawsuit which would halt implementation of the treaty which might be filed within the next few days. Beyond that, McClure said, The new Panama Canal Treaty will be defeated in I doubt that it Congress. can muster the 23 majority needed for ratification in the United States Senate." McClure further criticized Carter saying, The President has put our country in the position of bowing to the demands of a tiny, unstable government in Central America, thereby giving the impression we are not the world power we once were. McClure said, was not involved in any respect and threatened to sue. If he does sue, it will be interesting to hear him explain how he was able to serve as the candidate and treasurer of his own camin paign for Rhode Island, and how he could raise tens of thousands of dollars for that campaign without reporting it to either the Clerk of the House, which is mandatory, or the FEC. It is no secret that big labor and the banking interests have contributed to St Germains campaigns, and it doesnt appear that the new election laws are going to interfere with labor and the big banks going right on making their contributions. Because a question of illegality is involved, in order to determine the truth, the ordinary place to check would be at tne office of the Clerk of the House. Strangely, all microfilmed records relating to the first two quarters of 1976, when the alleged improprieties took place, are missing . . . just not there. Well, the FEC is busy, putting its case together against The SPOTLIGHT. Maybe they simply don't have time for Mr. St Germain. Or is it that hes too powerful for them to tackle? After all, it isnt The SPOTLIGHT which votes on appropriations for the Washits bureaucracy, ington Congress. And St Germain is one of the top Democrats on three powerful committees Banking and Finance, Government Operations and Small Business. Get the picture? on Reader' comment are welcome.

Finally, McClure stated, The only hope President Carter has for getting the treaty approved lies in presenting Congress with an Therefore, accomplished fact.

An Opinion Research survey, released only yesterday, shows that 78 of the American people oppose a new Panama Treaty. The people are absolutely right, said McClure. Mr Carter is dead wrong.
