FORD ANDERSON As I See It Take Owe humps Now Special interest groups that are preparing to defend their !e programs, such as NEA, AFL-CI- O, food stamp recipients, and "many others must remember that the American people have 7sent congress a message. Give President Reagan a chance to fexy his new brand of economic medicine. President Reagan has convinced the public that his plan of and budget cuts is a must if we are to control inflation. Some say they would like to see belt tightening, but in the jame breath say "don't cut my program." Lace Yes, there is screaming, but it is not nearly as bad as what "twill inevitably happen if inflation is allowed to continue. The federal budget must be controlled. as The feeling I get from the governors who met with the new administration is that they know they have a bullet to bite, and hhe new program is a must. They seem to be pleased that the president is in favor of moving many powers down to the state Lind local level. Federal regulation is causing them much rouble and confusion. et,; "Let's spread the pain," says the president. "It's better to gke a few lumps now to get the economy turned around." Television news reports that Breshnev in the Communist world conference is upset about Reagan invectives against terrorism in the world. He would like to meet President Reagan face to face and work out a new SALT treaty, even talk about Afganistan and Poland in a summit meeting. Reagan officials report that they are not interested in a summit meeting at this time. They would like to see some real earnest action by the Soviets - not just talk but action on moving their troops out of Afganistan, ceasing interference in the affairs of Poland, and to stop supplying arms to the terrorists throughout the world. The Reagan team appears to be well-organiz- and func-tioning efficiently. The various leaders are all out there selling the people on what must be done to avert an economic disaster in this country. The opposition continues to bring up the abuse of the poor and aged in face of the president's insistence that he will not hurt them. Better to take a few lumps now than to wait for the wholesale destruction of our society that will inevitably result if we continue our present course.

I really liked it that way. What I'm referring to, of course, is when our children were little. I kinda thought that I had it rough when all I did was feed one end of them, and change the other. I came to think of myself as a rear-en- d expert. Saturdays. Know what that means? If you don't, you're probably one of the few people in Pleasant Grove tht doesn't have a child either playing basketball, or cheering for basketball. Or let me put in another way . . . .you're probably a person that remembers that the "F" on the gas gauge on the front panel of the dashboard means "Full." Two days a week you can keep the local gas stations rich by taking your four year old to ... .thereby being able to go home and get your home clean enough to sit for five ; minutes and admire it until you have to go back and pick them up. They come home, look in..:, bewilderment at the spit and. , v?rpolish, and say to' themselves,-- " ; ""'Gee, what will mama Then they set about making sure that they keep you busy (and out of trouble) the rest of the afternoon. A word of warning -- - it is frowned upon to tie one's child to their bed post here in Utah ! "I need a for ." strikes terror in my heart. My children think I can sew anything for any ac-tivity they're participating in. As far as they're concerned, mom majored in sewing in both high school and college. (Ac-tually it was P. E.) I signed our son David up for soccer. They had a space where you could check where you can volunteer --for anything from a coach to bringing the cookies. If I volunteer for anything else, I'm going to have to put name tags around my children's necks. Sorry, Soccer Association, but if David makes it to the prac-tices, and I can come to his games to cheer my heart out, that'll have to suffice. I really admire the good women that have such organized lives that they can have a spotless home, be a room mother for all five of their children, go to the health spa three times a week, sing in the Tabernacle-- Choir, look like -- Princess Grace when their husbands get home, and can gluten steaks look like T- - bones. I'll bet that when she goes into her room, closes the door; then into the closet, and closes the door; that she quietly beats her head on the wall and screams with two pillows over her face. I've found it an ex-cellent exercise in "coping." |
