as the effect of cartels and common
markets on the American dream.
But more than he wants to im
press or influence his economist col
leagues, Grayson wants to reach the
American worker — blue collar,
white collar, male, female, college
graduate or high school dropout.
He wants them to understand the
factors that have, during the last
decade, caused them to work harder
for a smaller real wage.
He wants them to realize that in
many cases their response was to
compromise their own standards, in
both management and labor, be
cause they perceived someone else
getting something for nothing,
primarily through government.
He wants them to know that
others, particularly West Germany
and Japan, rapidly are displacing the
United States as the world’s eco
nomic powers.
Finally, he wants American wage
earners to know they can reverse
the slide, and the time to do so is
now.
“I hear this over and over from
taxi drivers, steel workers,’
Grayson said. “It’s what the presi
dent has labeled the malaise. The
malaise is we re working our tails off
and people say we re not getting
anywhere.
“One measure of that in statistics
is that real wages in the United
States have not risen by more than
just a fraction in 13 years. That

spending, has not increased in 13
years. Boy, that’s a society that’s
flat.
“But people don’t want to stay
flat. You want to improve your life
and so do most people. So what we
did was continue to turn to govern
ment. Not everybody, but enough
people did, and the politicians
heard that and said, ‘OK, you want
some more clean air, some more
unemployment insurance, some
more roads built, some more foreign
aid, you want to win a war in
Vietnam, you want to go and save
the Middle East and suddenly gov
ernment started to do all of this and
the percent of government activity
just went up, up, up.”
On these points, Grayson watches
his step and his words. The last
characterization he seeks is that of a
mossbacked proponent of big busi
ness, insensitive to the needs of the
poor, undereducated or unem
ployed.
But he sees the need for a pace to
progress. If you want something,
you work for it. If you don’t have it,
you can’t spend it. If government
doesn’t have it, they shouldn’t
spend it either.
“There are about 535 people up
there and they’re easy to laugh at
and blame and shout at and if we
don’t like it we turn ’em all out at
the next election. But they are the
collective voice of what we re telling
them to do.”

Judge rules ‘illegal search’
Drug conviction reversei
United Press International
AUSTIN — A Dripping Springs
man Wednesday had his marijuana
possession conviction overturned by
the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals
because law enforcement officers il
legally searched his home.
Juan A. Gonzalez had been fined
$5,000 and given a five-year prob
ated sentence for possession of 30
pounds of marijuana on Jan. 7, 1977.
Charles Talbert, a Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department warden,
testified he and another warden
went to the Gonzalez house after re
ceiving a complaint of shooting at
the defendant’s home.
Talbert said they found no one at
home but that he and his companion
searched the yard for any evidence
of game violations. He said they left
the house and set up a surveillance
point a short distance away. Talbert
said he then called Hays County
deputy officers after they observed
Sylvia Gonzalez, the appellant’s
wife, and a friend arrive at the
house.
When the deputies arrived, the
officer obtained a search warrant.
The deputies then stopped
Gonzalez and charged hei
speeding and took her to thei
station, where she agreed
the search warrant.
But the criminal court ruled
Talbert had gone to the Cci
home to check out game viol
on private property. The coni
said that Talbert’s illegal in®
and the subsequent consei
search had not been properl
tified by the state.
