Logan discusses nation's economy
James K. Logan, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate Thursday night called for the establishment of fiscal priorities at home, increased exports, and the return of American troops in Europe.
"Clear priorities on spending at home should have been established long ago," he said. "The Democratic Party has traditionally been the American political party that has kept abreast of the times, but in this case, a Democratic administration has faltered. I will not defend the Administration's present fiscal policy, for it has lagged too far behind the rapidly shifting conditions of our times."
Logan, speaking in Hutchinson to the Democratic Club of Reno County, said he could not support the fiscal policies of the present administration.
EXPLAINING HIS position on priorites, Logan said that non-essential projects must be cut back.
"A federal construction project may well be worthwhile, but it must be considered in terms of whether it is essential now. If it is not essential now, it must be delayed."
He said, however, that when urgent demands have been met, these delayed projects can be reconsidered in terms of new priorities and the funds available."
He asked for up-to-date solutions to current problems.
"A QUARTER of a million U.S. troops are in Europe where they serve as a one-way funnel for U.S. dollars pouring into the economies of other nations. Our armed forces have demonstrated that they can fly thousands of troops to Europe on short notice to meet emergencies. But still we persist in the expensive practice of stationing troops there as though it would take weeks in a World War II troop ship to get them to a trouble spot from the United States. World War II was over 25 years ago; it's time we stopped using 25-year-old techniques to deal with a jet-age problem."
In reiterating his appeal for the end of the war in Vietnam, Logan said: "Our $25-billion a year expenditure there dwarfs the amount spent in Europe. We must begin to de-Americanize the war for as the war de-Americanizes in terms of the number of American troops involved, it also will de-Americanize in terms of dollars. It takes no economic wizardry to conclude that it costs far more to maintain an American soldier in Vietnam than it costs to maintain a South Vietnamese soldier in his homeland."
LOGIN SAID he believes that until Vietnam War ends, American balance of payments will be trained and fiscal priorities home will be distorted. Logan suggested the tools of tax decrease and tax increases as methods of implementing fiscal policy. He said that while no public office holder wants to raise taxes, an urgently needed tax hike was finally implemented after months of bickering.
"An unpleasant tax increase, however, is just one tool to be
used. A tax reduction can be equally useful. But office holders are not always as willing to cut taxes as you might assume. There is always the possibility that taxes might have to be raised again later and this is politically more sensitive than ignoring the need in the first place. It's a lot easier to pass the buck for inaction than action."

Rockefeller backers plan city-wide canvass
The KU New Majority for Rockefeller will sponsor canvassing to influence delegates to the Republican National Convention, Jay Curtis, Prairie Village senior and chairman of the group, said Tuesday.
The first group will send volunteers to Kansas City to help that chapter collect petition signatures Saturday, Curtis said. The petitions will be sent to delegates from the Fourth Congressional District and delegates at large.
Kansas has 20 delegates to the Republican Convention, two from each district and ten at large, Curtis said. He said all are committed to Sen. Frank Carlson as a favorite son on the first ballot and that eight have indicated preferences for later ballots.
