On Welfare . . .
“I feel that we have an obligation to those who are physically or mentally unable t^barn a living. I do not feel, however, that the Congress has the right to turn over tax funds of hard-working citizens to able-bodied persons who refuse to work.”
On Spending . . .
“Vast, unchecked spending programs feed the inflation that deducts from the paycheck of every American worker. ' “There is only one place government can get money — from the pockets of wage earners. Public funds must be handled as a public trust."
On Busing . . .
“I strongly oppose the practice of compulsory busing of children to achieve an artificial racial balance in the schools ... It is wrong, it is unjust and it is not in the public interest . . . Parents of all races want their children to attend the school nearest their home. It is important that we preserve the neighborhood schools. ’ ’
On Social Security . . .
“Always, I have been a strong advocate of Social Security. I feel these funds must be handled as a separate trust, and that benefits must be increased when inflation eats into the value of the dollar. I also have supported increases in benefits to retired military and civilian government employes.”
