Report From Washington
By CONGRESSMAN WALTER JONES
'Last week the House took
action on President Nixon’s
“guaranteed income welfare
proposal.’’ This involved long
debate and strong statements
from both the proponents and
the opponents. The bill pass
ed by a vote of 243 to 155.
All members of the North
Carolina delegation voted no
on final passage, except Con
gressmen Preyer and Gab
finakis. The bill proports to
require those receiving the
guaranteed income to attempt
to secure work. But there arc
so many exceptions in this
part of the bill that it will be
most difficult to enforce.
It has been established
that it will add approximate
ly 12 million people to the
present welfare rolls at a cost
of $4 billion annually, which
in my opinion is an extreme
ly low estimate. I can only
conclude that this approach to
•our low income citizens will
tend to destroy the initiative
to do for themselves what an
all too benevolent government
will do for them.
An example of the above
statement is to take a hypo
thetical case under the terms
of the act, which is as fol
lows: A man and his wife
with seven children on wel
fare would receive $3,100 a
year, in addition to $2,352 in
food stamps. Also, a total of
$720 earned income is ex
empted from marginal taxa
tion under this bill. In cer
tain states there are supple
mental benefits increasing
this amount to a total of ap
proximately $6,800 per year.
None of this income would
be taxable by either the fed
eral or state government.
Taking the same example
of a regularly employed man
with a wife and seven child
ren, to have a net income
which would provide $6,004.80
he would have to be employ
ed in a job paying approxi
mately $7,400.
The .figure of $7,500 per
iyear presently covers half of

all American families now
employed.
In addition to the objec
tions to this bill stated above,
this is in direct contrast to
President Nixon’s repeated
promises to return to the
states a greater participation
in the state-federal relations.
This uniform welfare ap
proach represents one more
step towards the centraliza
tion of government, rather
than the decentralized fed
eralism.
The House also passed the
Education Appropriation Bill
for fiscal 1970-71. In spite of
the efforts of some of us, this
bill provides for $440 million
for impacted areas, which is
a reduction ~f 880,567.000 over
last year’s figure. An unde
sirable part of the bill was
the fact that no funds were
provided for academic facili
ties; neither were there funds
fer higher education instruc
tional equipment.
Many Drivers
Making Rounds
In Golf Cars
NEW YORK (a>—Think
ing about buying a second
car? How about an electric
golf car?
Call it a fad, call it funny,
but it’s better than even mon
ey that you’ll find golf cars
parked under car ports in
many areas of the country,
particularly retirement cities
such as Sun City, Ariz., Ran
cho Bernardo, in San Diego,
Calif., Long Beach, Calif., and
Sarasota, Fla. The cars are
used to go to the hairdresser,
grocery store, and, obviously,
to the golf course.
Many of the newer cars are
built with extruded aluminum
I-beam frames. Their gross
operating weight, with batter
ies. is only 840 pounds. The
aluminum frame eliminates
rust, corrosion and require
ment for painting.
