Editorial Excerpts
Quoted By Congress On Natural Gas Control From an editorial in the Bridgeport (Tex.) Index ahd reprinted in the Congressional Record: "With the national well-being at stake, it is important that the public understand the danger of any action which could deprive us of assured supplies of natural gas. That danger exists, clearly and strongly, in federal control of na. tural gas production . , . No monopoly exists in natural gas production. It is one of the most highly competitive industries in the Nation today, and the price of its product should continue to be determined by the competition—not by rigid government control.” Letter To Congreu Rep. Clyde Doyle of California, in quoting an editorial which ended up with a plea for readers to write to Congress, added this remark in the Congressional Record: “Mr. Speaker, it would certainly do vast good it more and more of the newspaper editors in our great nation would stress the fact that this Congress is the Congress of the American people at the grassroots of American citizenship that we members of this great legislative body seek the thinking and considered opinion on all important problems which come before us.” "Flexible Failure"
