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.
