A "SOMETHING EXTRA" Service from... pellman addresses Lincoln Day dinner County gets Support for President Richard Nixon's revenue sharing plan and cutting back on some other federal programs was voiced by King County Executive John Spellman when he spoke to the Mason County Republican Lincoln Day Dinner last Thursday night. Revenue sharing, Spellman said, is sharing the basis of power of government with the people. The federal income tax is the most efficient way of raising money and doesn't leave much left for local and state governments, he commented. Nixon's plan to do away with some programs, Spellman said, is planned to keep the good programs and get rid of the wasteful ones. Congressmen and senators have been saying revenue sharing will not work, he commented, but Congress did not want to approve revenue sharing but was forced into doing it. Congress, he said, is either going to have to fund the budget for programs it passes or admit to causes inflation. One of the big faults of the present federal programs is that there are too many middlemen who soak up too much of the money before it reaches those whom it is intended to help. In his remarks Spellman commented: "Abraham Lincoln was a genuine patriot. One who believed that preserving and improving the United States was his sacred duty. "He had no illusions about his role and said: '1 have no desire to have God on my side. What 1 want is to be on God's side.' "So today the Republican Party, under Richard Nixon, wants to be on the side of the constitution, of a balanced federal system with state and local government each playing their proper roles. We want to be on the side of those who take pride in the good things this great country has accomplished in its almost-200 years of independence. We want to be on the side of individual initiative, with each man assuming his responsibility. We want to be on the side of economy and honesty in government. We don't want God on our side - we want to be on God's side. "The message of the 1972 presidential election is that the vast majority of the American people share these Republican aspirations. "The people are weary of those who can see the history of the United States through gloom colored glasses. "The people are weary of those who divide Americans into competing activist segments and encourage a 'What's in it for me' attitude in such newly-formed militant groups. "The people are weary of those who mouth the word 'unity' while being preoccupied with the differences among our people ... weary of those whose philosophy is divisive, pitting generation against generation, race against race, sex against sex, and class against class. "The people are weary of those who talk about giving every individual an opportunity for a job, but support a wasteful horse and buggy welfare system that demeans the recipient, holds no hope for his family, and discourages people from going to work. "The people are weary of those who cry crocodile tears over the shrinking of the dollar due to The Mason County Commission was notified at its meeting Monday a planning grant for remodeling of the courthouse and construction of a courthouse annex had been approved. The grant, for $16,800 is from the State Department of Planning and Community Affairs. The commission made no decision on what the next step in the planning process would be. The comn]ission approved a resolution for the formation of a county public works department. The commission was informed that a 20-foot fiberglass inboard-outboard boat was available through state surplus and it could he used by the sheriff's office. George Doak, director of emergency services for the county, and Sheriff John Robinson, appeared to discuss the possibility of obtaining the boat with the commission. Two arrested Daniel Pierce, 25, and Cynthia Pierce, 20, both of Route 3, Box 513, Shelton, were arrested at their home Friday evening on charges of possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell. Mason County Sheriff's inflation, reckless spending have caused inflation, and, even today, are voting billions of dollars of new programs without providing the income to pay for them. "The people are weary of those who decry the waste of the program to strengthen law enforcement, but seek to excuse the criminal by blaming his conduct on society's neglect. "These weary people, seeking a return to the virtues that have made this country great and strong, voted for Richard Nixon." THE ONLY worthwhile achievements of man are those which are socially useful. Alfred Adler but who through Deputies, who made the arrest, said more than 40 grams of marijuana were found in the home. Deputies operating on information they had received earlier, obtained a search warrant for the home before going there when the arrests were made. Pierce was taken to the Mason County Jail and Mrs. Pierce to the Thursday County Jail's Women's section, where they were held until Monday when they were released on personal recognizance by Judge Frank Baker after formal charges had been filed against them by Prosecuting Attorney Byron McClanahan. McClanahan filed the charges Monday. ann,ng They stated the boat was available free of charge but, that the motor and unit need to be replaced. They stated they had contacted a local boat firm and had been given a cost estimate of $2,300 for the necessary work, which would include taking the present sheriff's office boat in trade. Doak stated he had had the boat placed on hold until he could contact the commission. The commission told Doak to go ahead and try to obtain the boat.
