Veterinarians Vie For Schools It’s hard enough to get int< medical schools these days, bu students seeking admission t< veterinary colleges have ai even harder row to hoe. Latest statistics show that : in every 2.7 students applyin; are now accepted by the na tion’s medical schools. Veteri nary colleges, on the othei hand, have room for only 1 ii ervery 7.4 applicants. The crunch Is so bad ai Kansas State University, say: one official, that some of the state’s students have sought ad mission to a veterinary college which KSU helped organize re cfently in Nigeria. J Average enrollment in the na tion’s 19 veterinary colleges is rjow about 325. f R. C. WISE H Season S |5to Pastes | By LWm Stuck*?

U.S. Senator JESSE ★★ HELMS WASHINGTON—Just before the Congress went home for its Easter recess, a piece of legislation was passed which will result in piling another enormous chunk of Federal debt upon the backs of the working American taxpayers. Nobody is certain just what this one piece of legislation will cost. Estimates range from $25 billion up to $40 billion. This legislation was raw politics at its worst. Even Senators who supported it were admitting that it was a "Christmas tree"—or, as one of them described it, "an Easter basket." I wish the American people could examine this legislation, and understand the harm it will do to them in terms of inflation and taxation. GIVE-AWAY—It was the old give-away philosophy, gone wild. Millions of Federal checks will be mailed out. All sorts of tax concessions were written into the law in an obvious effort to buy votes in the next election. I am proud that most of the North Carolinians writing to me were not fooled by the promises of something-for nothing. They understand the bad economics of this legis lation. They understand that, as a result of this legislation, their food bills—in fact, the prices they pay for everything— will go up. HYPOCRISY—What bothers me most, however, is the hypocrisy of some people in public office. Some of the most pious speeches about inflation are made by the very Senators and Congressmen who voted for this kind of legislation. When voting records are checked, it becomes clear that the very people in the Congress who have caused inflation are the very ones who go home and make the loudest speeches against inflation. They can't have it both ways. If they are really concerned about inflation, then they must stop voting for every big spending appropriation proposal that comes down the pike. They must join the small minority of us who have been fighting for cutting spending and a balanced Federal budget. AMENDMENT—In the midst of the debate on this measure, I sent forward an amendment to put the matter in perspective. I did not expect my amendment to pass, and it didn't. But it did serve to put the debate in perspective. My amendment called for a reduction in the salaries of Senators, Congressmen and Cabinet Officers. I proposed to reduce our salaries by the exact percentage that the Federal Government fails to balance its budget. I frankly told the Senate that this was an opportunity for Senators to put up or shut up. If we really want to do something to stop inflation, then we must balance the budget. And if the Congress doesn't want to face up to its respon sibility, then I feel that we ought to be penalized. Only 19 Senators voted for my amendment, which was about what I had expected. One "liberal" Senator came over to my desk in a rage. "Look here," he said, "I can't make ends meet on what I'm making—and here you are proposing that my salary be cut." I suggested to him that he could always resign from the Senate, ff his $42,500-a-year salary wasn't adequate. Moreover, I suggested that he think about the hard-working taxpayers who earn only a fraction of what Senators are paid. When he voted against my amendment, he literally shouted. REPORT FROM Jail Letter Is Released —Continued From Page One so long a time these deficiencies still exist and continue to constitute a threat to the safety and security of persons confined, this agency can no longer bear the responsibility for continued operation of the facility. Therefore I will recommend to the Secretary of the Department of Human Resources that the Tran sylvania County jail be closed effective July 1, 1975. The closure procedure will be followed in compliance with G. S. 153A-223. Ample time, I feel, is being afforded you in this matter in that you may make alternate arrangements for housing Transylvania County inmates, and I trust that planning will progress at an early date for a new facility in order that the county will not be in convenienced for an unduly long time.
