Liston B. Ramsey of Marshall. Ramsey was surprised to learn over the weekend that many of his colleagues in the legislature had gone to work in his behalf after Rep. John S. Stevens of Asheville pulled out of the race. That is not unexpected; he is more accustomed to working for others than to being the center of attention himself. Liston Bryan Ramsey came up through the rough and tumble politics of Madison County to become one of the most influential men in the General Assembly, and therefore in the state. Since his first term in 1961, this mountain legislator has been ac corded respect by those in politics who recognize ability when they see it. Ramsey, 54, has grown in stature over the past dozen years while in Raleigh. He has probably devoted more time to his job as a lawmaker than anyone serving in the legislature. A staunch partisan, Ramsey nevertheless rules with a firm but fair hand as a committee chairman. He was chairman in 1971 of the important House Redistricting Committee which drew the boun daries, not only for General Assembly districts, but for North Carolina's congressional districts as well. Ramsey served in 1973, and will again in 1974, as chairman of the House Finance Committee. Just being able to survive in that position in times of such economic crisis could provide the test of fire for any candidate for Speaker of the House. -The Asheville Citizen Impact Of Inflation In County To what extent has the rising cost of living af fected residents of Madison County? Have incomes in the local area increased fast enough in the last few years to enable the average family to absorb the higher cost and have something additional left over? Prior to the last year or two, most families, locally and elsewhere, were able to keep ahead of the1 ame because their earnings were rising more rapidly than their costs. More recently, however, with galloping inflation, many have been falling behind. A study by the Tax Foundation, a non-profit research organization, shows what has been hap pening to people's buying power. "Because of taxes and inflation," it states, "pay increases otniD to 35 Dercent in the last seven years IBU siiorrui giving a uuiuijr uwbi5 virau power it had with the Smaller 1966 mftome." Those with bigger increases, however, ended up even or better. In other words, the cost of living has gone up more than 35 percent, putting a squeeze on many family pocketbooks. How has a married man in Madison County, for example, who earned $8,000 in 1966, made out with the $2,800 in pay raises he may have received since then? The figures show that not only have his raises been erased by the tax-inflation combination, but his after-tax pay today is worth about $390 less than it was seven years ago. For the married man who made $10,000 in 1966 and is getting 35 percent more than that now, the Tax Foundation details ho his 73,500 pay increase turned into a $466 net loss. His income taxes, Federal and state, went up $595 on average and his Social Security tax rose $355. Inflation caused an additional loss of $3,016. Thus, his expenses rose $3,966 in seven years and his income only $3,500 which left him $466 short of the break-even point. Other calculations, based upon the general figures contained in the report, indicate that a Madison County man who had a $5,000 income in 1966, which rose to $6,750 in 1973, ended salary.
