Hayakawa

WHAT WE NEED in Washington today are PROBLEM-SOLVERS NOT PROBLEM CREATORS Plus a massive injection of COMMON SENSE!

 
for U.S. Senator




Why Hayakawa?
 
BECAUSE ...

 
     The highly respected California Poll reports he has the best chance of any Republican to defeat John Tunney!

     He's proved he's a man of action­—with intelligence and courage!

     He's not a career politician—so he has no political IOU's to pay. He's in­debted to no one but California voters!

     He's dedicated to action for you NOW. There's no future ambition for which his decision could be bartered!

Where Does He Stand?

 
     Sam Hayakawa's positions on today's major issues are common-sense stands that would produce sensible solutions. Here are a few:

Employment
 
     The way to create jobs is to assure the prosperity of agriculture, business and industry. The higher the production, the bigger the sales and greater the need for workers.
     For too long, our career politicians have ignored this obvious fact of life in favor of welfare, make­-work programs and the like. At best, these are temporary expedients that produce no economic value for worker or employer. They consume, rather than generate, tax dollars and act as inflationary pressures which ultimately hurt everybody.
     The climate for the healthy growth of job-creating—and tax-generating—business must be improved by removing from our farmers and businessmen the shackles of over-regulation and over-taxation.

COURAGE and ACTION marked the turning point of violent campus rebellion when Sam Hayakawa, San Francisco State's acting president, refused to be pushed! He climbed atop the rioters' sound truck, ripped out the wires and silenced it!

Defense
 
     We must have an adequate defense—but, unfor­tunately, adequacy is not determined by the United States alone. An adequate defense for this nation Is largely determined by the military capability of the Soviet Union.
     Russia's armed strength has been increasing while ours has been diminishing.
It is irresponsible and short-sighted for a senator or representative to refuse to support the appropria­tions necessary for adequate military investment. America's responsibilities for peace commit us to vigilance in the Pacific no less than to the Atlantic. We are not a regional, but a world power.

Crime
 
     Crime does pay—well enough to keep 500,000 "career criminals" in business. Two-thirds of U.S. crimes are committed by repeaters.
     We must reduce crime by taking the profit out of it—by strengthening laws, plugging loopholes, in­sisting on strict enforcement with swift and certain punishment.

Agriculture
 
     California's largest industry competes with other states in the production and sale of food and fiber. The farmers and processors of California should not be unfairly singled out for publicly-supported union­ization and wage regulation. What applies to our agricultural employers and workers must apply equally to their counterparts in other states.

Energy
 
     Nuclear energy must be developed, with insist­ence upon all necessary safeguards. We must not be dependent on foreign oil indefinitely. We also must develop modern coal, geothermal, wind and solar energy generation.
     I disagree with those whose demands for more than adequate safeguards are a transparent attempt to stop nuclear energy development altogether.

Environment
 
     We must preserve and enhance the environment we hold in trust. We must solve the problems of energy, industry, transportation, housing and commerce.
     I believe both objectives are reconcilable. The achievement of one does not depend in abandon­ment of the other.

Self-Destructing Bills
 
     Many federal programs—desirable or necessary when enacted—become entrenched and continue in costly perpetuity long after their real need has passed. I propose that program-creating bills passed by Congress contain a clause under which they self-destruct after three years unless they are re-enacted.

MEMO
 
TO: California's Republicans
FROM: S. I. Hayakawa
 
     I see no one else on the horizon—­neither the incumbent nor his chal­lengers—who seems to understand the frustration of the voter over an in­creasingly expensive government that is constantly creating more problems than it solves.
     I intend to wage a vigorous, hard­hitting campaign for the U.S. Senate. Will you please join me? 
 
Foreign Affairs
 
     Our foreign aid programs must include mutual responsibility. Whenever possible, aid should be furnished in American-made goods. All-too-often, cash is subject to a high evaporation factor!
     A condition of foreign aid grants should include some warranty against officials of beneficiary nations extorting bribes from U.S. businessmen as a cost of doing business there.
     We have the resources and capacity to help the developing nations and be a force for good in the world. We must not withdraw into isolationism and leave the rest of the world to seek assistance from freedom-hating Russia or freedom-hating China.
 
Detente
 
     Detente—a diplomatic word meaning "Mexican standoff"—is possible only when our armed strength is approximately equal to that of the Soviet Union. It isn't now—particularly in naval forces—and it must be strengthened.
     Detente rests on a precarious balance. The Rus­sians must understand detente cannot continue to exist if they continue to violate its spirit in the mis­taken belief we will resign ourselves patiently to whatever they do.

Inflation
 
     The direction of federal spending is unacceptable. After 186 years, we reached a $100 billion budget. In nine years, it doubled. Now, in just four more years, it's almost doubled again!
     This consumption of tax dollars is appalling. But the misery of inflation, created by excessive federal spending, is even more deplorable—particularly its tragic effect on the elderly who are trapped by fixed incomes.
     Federal spending must be reduced to save this nation and its people!

Busing
 
     Some of the disastrous results of busing for inte­gration might have been avoided by first busing the Parent-Teacher Associations, so the mothers could get acquainted. Next, bus the teachers. If all that went well, it might next have been tried on the children.
     It is unfair to expect the children to accomplish that which the adult world is not prepared to do—in their business, their unions, their social clubs and their churches.

 
Who is Sam Hayakawa?
 
     He's president-emeritus of San Francisco State University—where he displayed the brains and guts it took to stop the riots and re­start classes.
He's a successful author and syndicated columnist, respected for his straight thinking.
     He's dedicated to common sense.
     He's a man who knows you can't increase employment by destroying employers, care for the needy by bankrupting the treasury or improve our lives by over-taxing and over-­regulating them.
     He's a man you need in the U.S. Senate! He needs your support to get there.
