Federal Waste i
In Local Talk
* ? t
We centralize power in
Washington, we are -lowering our
voice in our government, ami we
must bring our government home ;
to the people where we can watch j
1 his was the concluding state
ment and general theme of an
address by J. Nat Hamrick, Ru
therfordton lawyer and candidate!
11th district Congressman, in
an address before members of the
Kings Mountain Lions club Tues
day night.
Mr-. Hamrick had previously
castigated governmental waste
and "the Frankenstein called
government which we have al
owed to become created in Wash
ington."
Following the address, Robert
Osborne posed several open for
um type questions to Mr. Ham
rick.
Mr. Hamrick's most specific
answer, amongpeveral, was that
he strongly supported the Hoover
commission proposals for elimi
nation of duplicating bureaus
and waste in the federal govern
ment.
Among other answers were:<? ?
(1) That-he favored a complete
study of the tax structure with a
view toward its revision (to a
question as to whether he favor
ed elimination of the wartime
excise taxes).
(2) That he favored balanced
budget, consistent with a strong
national defense program.
Citing the planned economy of
Britain under William the Con
queror, Mr. Hamrick declared "in
Britain there was no unemploy
ment, no uncertainty, and no op
portunlty." ?
"The Amerioan government
was a new concept," he continu
aMMfe&figgg
progress shown in ? mete 164
yeff?- TM* Progress made
possible by the individual en
terprise of the people, not by a
bureaucrat behind e desk.
"Nothing will get a man up
early and keep him un late ex
cept the right to e?.m a living,
and we don't want to lose sight
of these fundamentals."
Mr. Hamrick contended that the
American government of today is
somewhere between the position
of master and servant, "when it
Is "opposed to be servant only."
He cited three reasons the gov
2JJ2S* money. (1)
bureaus breed bureaucrats, (2)
- forgetting that
government is a decenary evil

tra week estimated to be requir
ed in covering rural areas. How
ever, the word from Hoyt Cun

there had been some resignations

the effect of requiring additional

the plan was to use only trained
