a space. It could be executed by a
North Carolina artist and would
add immeasurably to the
library-art center complex.
I would propose that a fund be
established for this purpose, to be
called the Samual and Jane
Abernethy Fund The late Mr.
Abernethy and his wife, a present
resident, were some of the first
horse lovers to move there from
the north. He was a highly
respected and beloved citizen, as
is his wife, who has been an
outstanding horsewoman and is a
person of great dignity and
courage. If this suggestion meets
with any approval, notify The
Bulletin, and I will be happy to
deposit a small nucleus at NCNB
for this purpose.
Thank you for your Southern
hospitality.

Expanding
The Bureaucracy
While Congressmen talk of
stopping inflation by reducing
federal spending, a new bill in the
House of Representatives pro
poses to expand the federal
payroll to an enormous degree.
This bill would encourage
federal agencies to go in business
for themselves whenever they
felt they could produce the goods
and services they use better than
private business does.
Why would any agency head
want to do that? It’s simple. The
more people an agency head has
working for him, the higher
salary he gets.
Just two weeks ago the U. S.
Small Business Administration
completed a six-months study
showing it costs taxpayers 50
percent more for government
agencies to produce the goods
and services they use instead of
buying them from small, private
businesses.
So, we believe this new bill is a
bad bill. It would increase the
cost of goods and services that
must be paid for with taxpayers’
money, and worse, it could
destroy several thousand small
buisnesses, putting their activi
ties into the hands of politicans.
