Sen. Helms Reports From Washington
WASHINGTON—In last
week’s report, I discussed
some, but not all, of the glar
ing defects in the legislation
approved by Congress just
before Christmas to increase
the federal gasoline tax by
five cents.
As you probably noted, the
news media had a field day
with the fact that some
Senators were irritated
because I refused to let this
proposal glide through the
Senate unopposed.
Many Senators were indeed
s unhappy, because their top
priority was going home for
! Christmas. They were not in
the mood to defer this 27%
billion dollar additional tax
bite until adequate considera
i fion could be given it. They
just wanted to go home.
j POLITICS—A number of
I highly respected Senators
came to my defense against
. the attacks on me by Senator
i Kennedy, Senator Cranston,
' Senator Ford, and Senator
; Simpson. I suspect that you
. have read nothing at all about
! comments by Senator Russell
> Long of Louisiana, Senator
Pill Armstrong of Colorado,
j and others. The comments by
these Senators—in my
j defense—were buried in the
r news stories, were
Bused at alLjr
PS Senatonjpord of Kentucky
; made a blatantly political
statement. He is a very par
, tisan Senator who claims to
. be a great friend of the tobac
co farmer. But I cannot forget
(hat Senator Ford flatly
i refused to go to bat for the
j tobacco farmers back in July
when I sought to cut down on
i the cigarette tax increase. I
' proposed that the taxes on
: beer, wine and hard liquor,
i along with cigarettes, be in
; creased by the same percen
, tage. (My proposal would
j have cut the cigarette tax in
! crease down from eight cents
] to two cents; it would have in
creased the tax on beer about
a penny a can, and on wine
and hard liquor by a relative
ly small amount.) Senator
Ford would not hear of it. Ap
parently he was more in
terested in his whiskey
Letter To The Chowan Herald Editor
] Dear Editor:
< A unique opportunity is
available to people across the
I United States who have suf
fered a heart attack. The
Hyperlipidemia-Athero
sclerosis Study is a nation
■ wide investigation which
aims to answer a compelling
. issue in medicine today, “Will
) the reduction of serum
I cholesterol retard or reverse
' the atherosclerotic process
' that causes heart attacks?”
We need yon to help in our
j recruitment of possible par
ticipants by printing the
enclosed press release. With
heart disease, America’s A
killer, causing more than
* 750,000 deaths each year, this
is a topic of certain interest to
i your renders.
Eligibility criteria for die
j j study nre stringent, making
‘ patient recruitment a
massive task. It is an effort
that needs wom*
in the media. As a federally
v funded program (afive-year
1 - grant from die National In
stitutes of Health ) our support
CTBifi from tax' dollars ,n d
1 f therefore the public must
have an opportunity to learn
aoout uus project.
The study covers traveling
a«wj|
I family member. Patients
j learn significant information
manufacturers in Kentucky
than in his tobacco farmers.
One further note: When the
survival of the tobacco pro
gram was on the line in the
Senate last July, Senator
Ford was able to persuade on
ly 22 Democrats to vote to
save the tobacco program.
Had it not been for the 32
Republicans who voted to
save the program, it would
have been a disaster. So,
when Ford tries to play
politic with the tobacco pro
gram, he should first look at
his own efforts.
KENNEDY-Senator Ken
nedy is—well, he is Ted Ken
nedy. I did not run for the
Senate to win a popularity
contest with Mr. Kennedy. I
cannot think of anything in his
personal or private life that I
admire, and I suppose he feels
the same way about me. So
when be attacks me, as he fre
quently does, I consider it an
honor.
As for trying to defeat this
gasoline tax increase, I would
do it all over again. It was one
of the most tiring experiences
of my life, but it was a fight
that I felt should be waged.
REAGAN—I am obliged to
say that I feel President
Reagan’s advisors did him
great harrtTwhen they per
suaded himiie reverse his
position on this proposal.
Originally, he had been total
ly against it—and he was
right the first time.
I still admire Ronald
Reagan, but I will never be a
yes-man for him or any other
President. Nor will I refuse to
take a stand when I believe
that a worthy priciple is at
stake. I felt that this gasoline
tax proposal was a bad bill,
proposed at the wrong time
and in the wrong manner.
Hie outcry from the liberal
politicians and partisan
editors was predictable. But
in this instance, I don’t
believe the people will be
fooled. I have been
comforted—and grateful—to
note the overwhelming sup-,
port I have received from peo
ple all over the country. TTiey
know when they are being
snookered.
by just coming in for the three
day, out-patient screening
(which does not obligate them
to participate in the study).
Recruitment will continue
until May of 1963. Time is at
a premium. Your help at this
point is more valuable than
ever.
Please call me at (215)
645-3340 if you have any ques
tions. Thank you for your
time.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Janet H. Axelrod,
East Coast Media Rep.
