INTEREST DOWN- COST UP
Are you waiting until
interest rates drop be
fore you buy a home? Do
you think that this will
save you money? The
home you have your eye
on will cost you more in
monthly payments two
years from now - even if
the interest rate drops
one percent.
For example, take a
home that costs $50,000.
With a 20% down
payment and financed
with a 25 year, B‘/:%
mortgage, the monthly
payment would be
$322.00. But one year
from now, if prices keep
rising at the average
rate, the now $50,000
home would likely cost
$56,000. If the interest
rate decreased to 7‘/i%,
not only would the down
payment be $1,200 more

but the monthly pay- j
ment would increase to 1
$331.08. If the interest I
rate stayed at BVi %, the |
payment would come to
$360.64. I
So, it’s obvious that I
the overall value of the 1
home - not the interest
rate - makes the biggest I
impact on your monthly §
payment. Since there is I
no indication of property 1
values decreasing, the I
moral of the story f j
is - buy now or pay more f
later. 1 {

Dear Editor: ,
[This letter was sent to Eddie Faw, Chairman, Yancey UW] i
The Earl Horton Pest at the American Legion supports the >
concept and goal of the Yancey United Way campaign. »
AH Yancey Ceunty Veterans are urged to contribute to thls-t
once-a-year appeal to provide financial support to 13/
worthwhile county agendas. a
It Is weO for us all to remember that If It were net for the I
United Way, many of these agencies would not exist or at least
operate leu efficiently and provide services to a lesser number .
of lndivldu*ls. M.«eover, the voluntary contributions from aO i
our residents reduce the need for additional tux revenues ta <
support some of these essential service-type agmdes.
But wishes for success in yomr current campaign.
Sincerely,
Marvin L. Holland, Post Commander

t REPORT FROM
U.S. Senator 1
JESSE ★★ l
HEIMS I
.i.
WASHINGTON—During the period of more than two
weeks when the Senate was holding round-the-clock sessions
on the question of natural gas deregulate, I received numer
ous telephone calls from friends who were genuinely concerned
about my health, and the health of other Senators.
There were many Senators who were worried about
same thing, particularly during an all-night session when there
were nearly 40 roll-call votes. Coming as they did, roughly
every 15 or 20 minutes, the roll-call votes prevented anyon4
from getting any rest. I think I shall never forget the sight est
bleary-eyed Senators as they straggled onto the Senate Floor
at 4 o'clock in the morning, red-eyed, without coats or ties—
and, in some cases, with expressions of ill-concealed fury on
their faces. +
It was the first time in 14 years that the Senate had
conducted an all-night session, and it was a sight to behold?
.. 1 4
FILIBUSTER—The news media described all of thisaS
a "filibuster"—which, in a sense, it was. But it was totally
unlike the filibusters of earlier days when one or more Senatotf
but only a few—would engage in marathon speeches. Ip
those cases, all the rest of the Senators would go to bech
The "filibuster" last month was entirely different
Two Senators, Jim Abourezk of South Dakota and Howard
Metzenbaum of Ohio, had their staffs draw up a total of morii
than 500 amendments, most of them frivolous, which the
two Senators introduced at the beginning of the debate*
Senators Abourezk and Metzenbaum knew that if
Senate did nothing but vote, one after another, on these
amendments, it would consume 20 eight-hour days of solid
voting. They did not expect even one of the amendment#
to be approved. In fact, the draftsmanship of such an enormou?
number of amendments is bound to be sloppy—but the
was to consume time, and to wear down the physical stamini(
of Senators.
i '.it
>t
PURPOSE?—What purpose does such an effort serve?
Well, fundamentally, regardless of which side you're oti)
and regardless pf the issue, it protects the rights of the minority 1
in the Senate. And that is vastly more important than
issue that may come before the Senate.
Senators Abourezk and Metzenbaum are likable men*
They occupy positions on the political spectrum about as
far-left as you can go. I disagree with them on just about!
everything that comes up in the Senate, but I am committed*
to the principle that they must never be denied their rights?
as a minority, to fight for what they believe. If they los#
their rights, then every other Senator will lose his rights a?
well. ' *
It so happens that the majority of Senators realize that,
natural gas production must be deregulated if we are ever#
again to hope to have an adequate supply. The federal govern
ment has been controlling natural gas production all these’
years, and look where it has brought usl Remember the*
shortage last winter during the bitterly cold weather? That was
the bitter fruit of federal regulation. *
FOLLY—If we really believe in the free enterprise!
system, then we'd better wake up and allow it to function.!
The _t e d er * l government spends about $l3O billion a year'
to impose controls and regulations which accomplish
or nothing except increase the cost of everything you buy."
s That $l3O billion estimate comes from the federal
government itself. And when you divide that cost among all
of our citizens, it averages more than SSOO a year for evirv
man, woman and child.
