Wilson, Member, SAE Car Repair Savings For Investor A lot of could-be Citizen Mechanics (or Do-It-Your- selfers) do not realize they are passing up a golden op­ portunity to save real money by doing some of the re­ quired maintenance and re­ pairs on their cars. For example, the Automo­ tive Parts & Accessories As­ sociation reports, a minor tune-up today on an eight- cylinder car can cost over $65 in many parts of the country. Where I live, in Washing­ ton, D.C., a friend of mine re­ cently was obliged to pay $85 for plugs, points, condenser, a power-steering belt and sup­ posedly the technical know- how to make his luxury-8 run smoothly, dependably and economically again. He did not get what he thought he bought. 1 % Besides , to pay that $85 tune-up bi l l , he had to earn, by his calculat ions, $118.46 before taxes . Had he been able to do the work on his car himself , i t would have cost him about $21.73 for par ts ( including 4% sales tax) , plus maybe up to another $10 for suppl ies such as a spray can of gum cut ter to clean off the carburetor l inkages, another of s i l icone spray lubricant and a package of chewing gum to work on while he worked on the car i tseif . And, with the possible ex­ cept ion of the gum, he would have had them for the next go-around. He would have invested, besides some t ime, only $31.73, saving himself (by his own f igures) more than $53 IA\ 1-R1.L! He would ha\e had to earn at least S •' 2 . f»0 in addi t ional pay to have that much money left. He says his car requires about three tune-ups a year (although he drives only 2 6,640 average miles per year). He thought he got off easy on this last bill - he has spent more than $125 for a tune-up. But if he had to pay only $85 each time, he could have saved over $ 159 in, actual cash each year, or released from commitment to this purpose $217.78 of his gross income - had he done the work himself! In the three and a half years he has had the car, he could have saved at this same rate a minimum of $1,590! Of course, he undoubtedly would have had to buy some tools and reference books. But for this amount of mon­ ey, he surely could have built up a pretty nice toolbox, and still have had a wad of cash left over for other things. And he would still have the tools to effect future, and probably greater, savings! A c t u a l l y , h e p r o b a b l y would have saved even more money than this, because he would likely also have been doing his own oil and filter changes, brake work, etc. And the time spent in do­ ing the work would have been time that was otherwise un­ productive for him. And he would have be­ come more familiar with his car. And he would have open­ ed the door for himself onto a fascinating new hobby. Advocates of big govern­ ment and an ever-expanding federal pork barrel may soon be added to the endangered species list. The public's grow­ ing animosity towards bur­ densome government interfer­ ence has almost totally silenced those who view fed­ eral controls as the cure-all for every social and economic problem. The times have really changed: even the Democratic Presidential nominee has joined the chorus urging a balanced federal budget. Those of us who fought hard to add fiscal responsibil­ ity to the Congressional budget process and to pass the revenue-sharing bill gladly welcome such newly con­ vinced 3 converts. We hope they will also join our fight to cut back on unnecessary regulatory agencies. The anti-government atti­ tude in the country has forced all public officials to take a reform-minded look at the federal bureaucracy. The result, so far, has been the adoption of several long over­ due reforms. However, not all the pro­ posed reforms have been con­ structive. For instance, many big-government critics recent­ ly sought to repeal the annual automatic cost-of-living in­ creases for top federal offi­ cials and government em­ ployees. A compromise bill was finally passed which froze salaries for Senators and Congressmen but upheld pay increases for other senior employees and federal judges. The critics failed to realize that government can not at­ tract top quality men and women unless it offers sal­ aries that are competitive with those in the private sec­ tor. Many of our finest at­ torneys, for example, will not accept appointments to the federal bench because they would suffer substantial pay cuts by leaving private prac­ tice. There is little doubt that the federal bureaucracy has grown unnecesarily large and inefficient. However, before wholesale cutbacks are adopted the public must care­ fully assess what services they now receive from the various agencies that they would not mind having re­ duced or abolished. Many voters are unaware of the volume of work han­ dled just by their Congres­ sional or Senate offices. In the past three years alone, case workers in my Spring­ field and Chicago offices have personally helped more than 20,000 Illinoisans with prob­ lems that range from not re­ ceiving their Social Security checks to assistance in ob­ taining exit visas for relatives in communist-controlled coun­ tries. Yet, there are some critics who look upon Con­ gressional staffs as costly patronage workers. The fiery political rhetoric that dominates a Presidential election year often fills the air with oversimplifications and generalizations. Big gov­ ernment is a major issue this fall, as it should be. I am confident that the voters will put the rhetoric aside and support programs, like the regulatory reform bill, that constructively approach the challenge of limiting the role of government in our lives. in Our Time 'COMMON SENSE " Copr N76 b> Cket i l r Ff .a tuics I600'< EQUILIBRIUM A STATE OF BALANCE PRO- PUCEP 9Y THE COUNTERACTION OP TWO OR MORE FORCES. &• fffwo COUNTERWEIGHTS ARE USEP TO KEEP THE CN TOWER, WORLP'S TALLEST FREE- STANPfNG STRUCTURE PROM SWAY­ ING IN THE MNP TO LITERALLY 'WH/P" ITSELF TO DESTRUCTION. j fa SOLVE THE WIN?

But it doesn't always work that way. Race, language and sometimes even a difference in ideas can be a barrier. Throughout the world, there is a force that unites man. Always the Church has proclaimed the dignity of each person, as well as the true meaning of togetherness. We especially need that unity today. On Worldwide Communion Sun­ day, go to church and pray for tolerance, for understanding. Join with the millions who will be praying, even as you arc. These are the things that make for peace.
