Nixon cuts
concern Price
Congressman Bob Price has
announced that he has Joined
with other Representatives in
calling for a bipartisan caucus
of all interested House Mem-
bers to meet to discuss recent
Administration actions leading
to the termination of certain
programs within the depart-
ment of Agriculture. These pro-
grams include the 2% REA loan
program, the Farmers Home
Administration Emergency
Loan Program for farmers hit
by natural disasters, the Water
Bank program, and the Rural
Environmental Assistance Pro-
gram.
"The purpose of this meet-
ing," Price stated, "will be to
find out what alternate proce-
dures could be worked out to al-
low for budget control without
destroying those ongoing pro-
grams which have proven of
great benefit not only to agri-
culture, but to the Nation as a
whole in the areas of water and
soil conservation.,,

problems concerning state
government.
This year, there probably are
more freshman representatives
than in many years past. The
freshman representatives are
in Austin because Texas voters
thought it time to clean house
and get some fresh air in the
polluted atmosphere which still
smells from the last session.
This Legislature, with many
freshman members, faces pro-
blems such as reform, taxes,
a new constitution, and hun-
dreds upon hundreds of other
problems.
Our man in Austin is Rep.
Phil Cares, a sharp, articulate
young lawmaker from Lefors.
This will be Phil's second term
in office, but his first year to
represent Donley County. Phil
defeated incumbent Tom Chris-
tian of Claude in the Novem-
ber general election. The two
had been paired in the same
district.
We've talked a lot with Rep°
Cates, and have become quite
close to the young lawmaker.
Phil, so we're convinced, is
one of the more dedicated law-
makers in Austin. He wants to
serve his constituents°
Phil has mapped out a long-
range plan fdr what he callsre-
presentation of the people. It's
In keeping with Phil's idea
of grass-roots representation
Cares recently called a meet-
ing of interested citizens from
various counties of hisdistrict,
and talked government over a
steak dinner. He got some of
their ideas, and told them some
of his plans for the upcoming
session.
From that meeting, Cares and
his friends decided to have reg-
utar meetings in the district
throughout the session, giving
the "folks back home" a solid
voice in government. Meetings
will be held throughout the dis=
trict, and these interested in-
dividuals will meet regularly to
inform Phil of the pace back
home, and let Phil inform the
home-folks of the pace in Aus-
tin.
We're extremely enthused
about Rep. Cares' plans to in-
clude his constituents in deci-
sions of government.
While many legislators are
conferring with their lobbyists
about various laws, Phil Cares
will be back home conferring
with the people who elected him.
To us, this is self govern-
ment in the true form. We're
proud that our representative
likes it that waylll
