Directing his remarks to
questions about the
Mlchael-Broyhlll Food
Stamp BUI, the
Oongressman said this bill
would take off the roles
people who receive food
stamps who "shouldn’t get
them, people who are
strikers or those who don’t
want to woric.” He cited
statistics from 10 years
ago that 1 of 438 people
receive tax stamps, adding
that President Ford had
attempted to make
changes and this effort was
held up by court order.
Broyhlll, replying to a
question, said legislation
By Congress could biinf
about a reform.
Oongressman Broyhlll
said the U. S. Congress
reputation, he quoted U. S.
News A World Report as
describing "at aU time
low" Is due to the fact that
Congress has failed In
answering major concerns
of the people Including the
Issue of regulatory reform.
In energy self-sufficiency.
In food stamp reform, and
In tax reform, asserting
that the real power should
Ue In the people.
He declared as "bad
policy" Presidential
Candidate Jimmy Carter’s
philosophy on rlght-to-
work laws and repUed to a
question of what can we do
to decontrol and
deregulate and slow down
deficit spending that
"citizens should speak up
in letters to editors and to
elected officials to mold
public opinion.”
Broyhlll said he Is
"against" the alleged
"Jobs blU” endorsed by
Governor Carter In the
Humphrey-Havriclns BUI
which greaUy Increases
the powers of the President
to cmtrol end run the
economy. Under the terms
of the bUl, the Federal
government, he said,
would become the em
ployer of last resort faced
with placing on the
government payrbUs all
who want to work and
cannot find Jobs. The
legislation also requires
the President to prepare
and Implement long-range
economic plans for the
purpose of achieving full
enq)loyment. "The costs of
such a program would be
so enormous and the ad
ditional powers granted to
the President to regulate
the private economy would
be so broad that I can not
support such an Ul-advlsed
approach to solving the
nation’s unemployment
problems,” he declsu-ed.
He said that a broad range
of leading economists have
testified before
Congressional Committees
that this legislation would
cost $80 bllUon or more and
fuel an Inflation rate of
around 16 percent an-
nuaUy. These make-work
jobs dependent on future
taxes would have to be
paid by the nation’s
working men and women
already hardpressed to
meet their tax bUls, he
declared.
He also said he la against
Congressional raises In an
inflatlonaiy year.
Cart DeVane arranged
the program and In
troduced Congressman
BroyhUl. Charles HamUton
presided.

One humorous Incident
that happened along the

(JatoL^Aid and some men In
a country store.
"Someone had given me
the soft drink,” Dr. Poston
recsrtled. '“niere I was In
my hiking boots suid back
pack standing around the
store talking with some
other customers. When I
finished my talk those men
began dropping change
Into my can of Gator Aid.
They caught me off-guard
and after they began I
couldn’t tell them they
were dumping money Into
my lunch."
Dr. Poston said the
biggest majority of people
he met while walking the
district were very nice and
kind and often Invited him
Into their homes for a
meed.
’"Ihose are real people
out there and they do have
Candidate Poston

«was the beat method fbr
Postim said. I know the meeting the people
way I hwe campaigned ^hat Is on
