Inflation a deadly threat'—Burns
Murder plot suspected
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The Senate Select Committee on
Intelligence will investigate reports that a senior official in
the Nixon White House ordered the assassination of
columnist Jack Anderson a committee spokesman said
Monday
"We are looking into this," the spokesman said I don't
think you could label it a crash investigation but it depends
on definitions."
The Washington Post reported Sunday that Watergate
conspirator E. Howard Hunt Jr told associates that a
"senior” member of Richard M. Nixon’s staff ordered him
about five years ago to assassinate Anderson
Storm may hit Georgia
MIAMI (UPI) — Two-time Hurricane Eloise aimed its
85-mile-an-hour winds and eight-foot tides at the U S. Gulf
Coast Monday, and forecasters predicted it would swipe
Louisiana’s Mississippi Delta before coming ashore at
Mobile. Ala., or Pensacola. Fla.
The National Hurrican Center warned that Eloise also
would bring 5 to 10 inch rains to southern and eastern
Alabama, northwest Florida and much of Georgia. The
center said Eloise might trigger tornadoes in advance of
the storm.
Hurricane warnings were in effect from Grand Isle. La.,
to Apalachicola. Fla
NORML supporter sues
CHARLESTON, S.C. (UPI) — A senior cadet at The
Citadel has filed a federal suit against the school in an
effort to establish a local chapter of the National
Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws (NORML) on the
campus
Cadet Bentley Childs Adams III of Thomaston, Ga , is
suing on the grounds that his First Amendment rights
under the Constitution have been violated by school
officials who refused to let him organize the chapter.
The suit, filed Thursday in U.S. District Court here, asks
only that NORML be allowed to exist on campus.
Adams said he exhausted all the official administrative
channels and regretted having to resort to the courts to get
relief.
Boston teachers strike
BOSTON (UPI) — Boston teachers went on strike
Monday against the nation's oldest public school system.
Only a handful of the city’s 84,000 students attended classes
as the school system faced its second crisis this month.
Most of the city’s 4,900 teachers refused to enter classes
and instead set up picket lines around all 262 schools
The strike seriously disrupted the start of the third week
of a court ordered plan to integrate public schools by
busing
The strike was called after ltth-hour weekend negotia
tions to get a new contract bogged down.
Isaacs sentenced
CUMBERLAND, MD. (UPI) — William C. “Billy"
Isaacs, the key witness in the famous Alday murder case in
Georgia two years ago, was sentenced to 60 years in prison
Monday for his part in the slaying of a Pennsylvania man
a few days before the Alday deaths.
Isaacs, who sat emotionaless as sentence was pro
nounced, was convicted last week of second degree
murder, kidnapping and larceny of a motor vehicle in
connection with the death of Richard W Miller, 19, of
McConnellsburg, Pa
Testimony at Isaacs’ two-day trial showed that Miller
spotted Isaacs and three other persons steal a van in
McConnelsburg and followed them toward Maryland but
was never seen alive again.
Parole denial requested
ATLANTA (UPI) — State Pardon and Parole Board
Chairman Cecil McCall said Monday a decision on a
possible parole for the confessed slayer of Jackson County
prosecutor Floyd Hoard would be made "in two or three
weeks ”
McCall said routine consideration would be given a
letter written by Hoard's relatives asking that parole be
denied Lloyd George Seay, who admitted bombing
Hoard’s car eight years ago
“We will consider it like all letters like that that come in
quite frequently, both pro and con. and we will evaluate
it,’’ said McCall, who had not yet seen the letter

Inflation continues to pose a
deadly threat to Ihe American
economy. Chairman of the
Federal Reserve System Ar
thur F Burns said here Fri
day.
Continuing price rises are
'endangering our economy
and political system,' Burns
said at the 12th annual Blue
Key Alumni Banquet.
Although Burns said. "I em
brace the goal of full employ
ment." he added. "1 totally
reject the argument that un
employment is a far more
serious problem than infla
tion."
Burns dismissed the call by
some economists for (he Fed
eral Reserve to increase the
nation's money supply at a
faster rate and for federal
pump-priming measures to
combat the lingering effects of
recession, claiming "such poli
cies would only bring us addi
tional troubles."
In fact. Burns said, the
primary cause of the recession
was the "failure to deal effec
tively with the inflation that
got underway in the mid-60’s
and soon became a dominant
way of life
While noting recent improve
ments in retail sales, unem
ployment and demand for la
bor, Burns aid, "The long-
range problem of inflation is
unsolved.''
Not only has continued infla
tion hampered confidence in an
economic recovery, but has
had "capricious effects" on
family budgets that “inevitab
ly cause disillusionment and
discontent." according to
Burns
Among the legacies of infla
tion itemized by Burns were
soaring credit demands from
both public and private sourc
es. overextended bank loans
and interest rates of "unprece
dented heights.”
All of these "maladjustments
could have been avoided if
inflation had not gotten out of
control," Burns said.
"The truth is. the economies
of the United States and many
other countries . . . (have)
developed a serious underlying
bias toward inflation, he added.
Many Western nations "have
moved hesitantly in checking
inflation. All have moved a
considerable distance toward
the welfare state,” according
to Burns.
He said escalating deficits at
all levels of American govern
ment have placed "pressure . .
. on our credit mechanism”
and. in some cases, such as
New York City, “have literally
gotten out of control."
Other inflationary forces at
work in the U.S. include the
growth of public service un
ions. which "have fostered
numerous strikes, some of
them clearly illegal," and fed
eral subsidies for ailing corpor
ations. Burns said.
As a remedy for inflation
and to accelerate the economic
upturn. Burns called for tax
incentives to allow businesses
to invest more heavily in
capital improvements.
He also decried “the dam
pening effect of governmental
regulations on business activi
ties," suggesting that some
environmental and safety re
strictions should be eased.
In order to "enhance price
competition." Burns urged a
thorough examination of fair
trade laws, the Postal Ser
vice’s monopoly on first-class
mail deliveries and minimum
wage laws, which are "still
pricing many teenagers out of
the job market."
Additionally, "it would be
helpful if Congress renounced
wage and price controls" so
business and labor could look
forward to the continued oper
ation of the free market, Burns
said.
The nation's ultimate eco
nomic objective should be “to
eliminate all involuntary un
employment . . (because)
work is far better than the
dole, both for the individual
and the government," he add
ed
To accomplish this goal,
Burns said the federal govern
ment might become "the em
ployer of last resort, offering
public employment to anyone
at somewhat below the mini
mum wage."
Prior to accepting such em
ployment, an individual could
receive unemployment insur
ance for a 13-week period to
facilitate the search for a job
elsewhere, Burns said.

Associate state editor
MACON - Democratic presi
dential hopefuls Jimmy Carter
and Sen Lloyd Bentsen of
Texas addressed the Georgia
Democratic Charter Conven
tion here Friday, assailing the
policies of the Ford adminis
tration and emphasizing the
importance of their southern
candidacies.
Carter, who spoke first, at
tacked the Republican Presi
dent for "doing nothing at all
about inflation and recession."
The former Georgia Gover
nor was echoed by Bentsen
who dubbed the current eco
nomic situation stagflation"
adding, “the current adminis
tration says it can't fight both
inflation and recession, so its
not doing anything about eith
er.”
In another reference to the
Ford administration Carter
said the President was ignor
ing the agriculture industry.
Directing his remarks at the
current Secretary of Agricul
ture. Carter said, "I have been
getting up early every day
since I announced for Ihe
Presidency so in 1977 I can
send Earl Butz back where he
came from "
Bentsen also addressed the
subject of agriculture saying
"the U.S. GOVERNMENT
must create a sound agricul
tural policy that will ease the
burden of uncertainty and risk
facing our farmers as they
work to feed this nation.”
The two candidates also crit
icized the F'ord energy pro
gram.
Carter said. "The only refer
ence that is made to the
energy problem is when Presi
dent Ford reads from the press
release the oil companies have
given him.”
He referred to the Arab oil
embargo of 1973-74 saying "no
longer can we allow any coun
try to use energy to black
mail."Carter added future inci
dents would constitute “eco
nomic war" with the U.S.
cutting off all exports to the
participating countries.
In his address Bentsen
voiced a similar opinion to
Carter saying the U.S. must
develop "new sources of ener
gy—by literally harnessing the
infinite power of the sun—to
free our country from the
whims of foreign sheiks.”
Speaking to the crowd of
approximately 500 at the ma-
con Hilton, both candidates
claimed that sectionalism no
longer played an important
part in the presidential elec
tion.
The candidate that receives
the democratic nomination
must "carry the same mes
sage to every part of the
country." according to Bent
sen.
Carter said, “Being a South
erner is not a handicap in
seeking the Presidency.”
In closing his speech Carter
insisted there was no basis to
rumors that Governor George
Busbee was unfriendly about
the Carter candidacy.
“I want to tell you in no
uncertain terms that George
Busbee and those associated
with him have always treated’
me and my campaign with
friendship and complete fair
ness."
Bentsen concluded by saying
that the Democrats want to
turn the country around.
“And with a Democrat in the
White House in 1976, we can do
so." he said, adding, “and it
might as well be me."
