PAGE EIGHT ’—SECTION TWO SENATOR SAM ERVIN * SAYS * 1 WASHINGTON Anyone surveying the national pulse would find much concern about our country’s prob lems. They range over the whole spectrum of American life. Not the least of these concerns is the problem of inflation. Prosperity is said to be at an all time high, but the stock market, a sometime guide, is having a bad case of the jitters trying to as sess the state of the economy. Some of the financial con cern is over how to finance a war and more government spending at home. But the truth is that it has' taken a war to Bring’ us to the realization that we are over- Row clown to MITCHENER’S for suntan lotion, sun glasses, swim supplies, picnic outfits, outdoor toys and games.

Until the strain on the dellar became evident nobody bothered to listen to arguments about foreign aid and deficit spending. Still we are told that the best way to curb inflation is not by cutting federal spend ing on programs that might be deferred, but to increase taxes. I am opposed to a tax increase, because I think we ought to go back to fun damental teachings that have been neglected for a long time. Simply put, the best way to prevent inflation is for the United States to quit deficit spending, balance its budget and manifest a sin- GENE'S 5 & 10 305-307 South Broad Street EDENTON, N. C. .

The school is affiliated with Old Dominion College in Norfolk, Va., where sci cere purpose gradually to re tire the $317.8 billion na tional debt. It would take courage to do this, but in the long run, the country wculd be much better off. Before the new theories of economics became a part of our national policies, there _were abiding convictions held by most people on “man, economics and government.” Then people rejected the no tion that “men should be paid for existing,” or that, "government should support the people,” or that “deficit spending is good for the country.” But the old mix-’ ims were built upon the ex perience of mankind and the world has never found a Taylor Theatre EDENTON, N.

Mrs. Trotmari was the for mer Dianne Toler / of Eden ton. r better productive rule than that “free men can be per suaded to produce things of value orily if: they are /per mitted to retaih a fair share of the fruits of their labor for themselves and their families.” So we have prided our selves on the fact that each year the sum of our achieve ments brings the total of the gross national product to a new high. A few days ago, “The Washington Evening Star” questioned the reli ability ot this standard, it said our yardstick was mea suring “not only the good but the bad, not only the cuts of civilization out lot inane and the phony. It even makes inflation look like an asset.” The Star went on to say that “Plastic back scratchi er? are in the GNP. So is the Rayburn Building. So are hydrogen bombs and the high cost of funerals. So are the gate receipts, say of the last Clay-Liston fight, though some would question how that performance could be defended 6s either: goods or service.” To the point, the Star warned: “ . . . America is the first to include all her creations, good and hideous, in a single - statistic and then brag about it.” The average citizen is in- i clined to say ‘“so what?” un-1 til inflation hits his pocket book and the price of bacon , causes comment at the breakfast table. It then be comes manifest that we have not created new rules for our game. Inflation comes, the national debt soars, cap ital flees abroad, money loses , its real value, and the peo- ; pie suffer staggering eco nomic blows, * | It has been said before, but soon or late, government must abide by the rules, too, in the wotld-"of money, and it ought to do so before the people suffer.
