Interview??

Thurmond advised the recycling
of crankcase oil which, he said,
causes 28 percent of the oil
pollution in U. S. lakes, rivers and
ultimately the ocean.
?? A lrt'UlCl . * ?
nnvc<nc<Li; 1 ilium we win nave
to become energy independent. I
am terribly concerned that half of
our oil is controlled by foreign
countries that have already cut us
off once.
According to Ravenel, it was the
participation of Venezuela in the
oil embargo that hurt the U. S. the
most. Canada, the other major
supplier, did not participate, he
said. Ravenel also said other
energy sources such as wind,
hydroelectric and solar should be
researched and develoDed.
GAMECOCK: The major source
of oil pollution and oil waste, the
regular off-shore cleaning of
ballast tanks and holds, occurs
frequently and according to environmental
geologists is not
strictly forbidden. What would you
like to see done about this?
THURMOND: I think a stricter
inspection of ships ought to be
enforced. Steps have got to be
taken to stop ships from dumping
that oil in the ocean. It's a pollutant
and it's a waste.
RAVENEL: I think that the
tankers and oil companies should
not be allowed to flush their tanks.
The tankers should be made to
store this waste in tanks nn chnro
Ravenel added that he is very
ecology-conscious. He said he
opposed the Richard B. Russell
Dam for "ecological reasons" and
that he is in favor of Tidelands
legislation.
GAMECOCK: What will be the
effect of the labor reform bill on
the South?
RAVENEL: I support the bill. I
think the rules applying to
government activity during union
time need some changing. The sole
purpose of the bill is to tighten up
the violations of some corporations
(concerning unionization)

THURMOND: The main purpose
of the bill is to unionize the South. I
hope Congress will turn it down. It
will allow union solicitation on
company time. This bill tilts
heavily towards the union side. It is
an effort by the unions to recoup
numerous losses.
GAMECOCK: Who will be
hardest hit by tax inflation? What
do you propose as a solution?
THURMOND: Tax inflation
hurts everybody. In the last 18
years they've (U. S. House and
Senate) only balanced the budget
once. We are going to have inflation
as long as we spent more
than we take in. And as long as we
have inflation we're going to have
inflationary taxes.
I'm going to continue to work to
get a constitutional amendment for
a balanced budget.
. Inflation increased over 7 percent
this year . It especially hits
those on fixed incomes, retirement
and social security.
RAVENEL: The tax reform bill
will not affect people on a low fixed
income. The tax reform bill is for
the wage-earner. We have a new
kind of inflation ? stagflation. I
have a five point plan including
points to balance the budget,
decrease oil and gas prices and
pass a no net cost increase which
would prevent Congress from
passing such legislation for two
years. I'd like to see the end of
indexing ? that in itself is inflationary.

education level with the present
rate of expenditures. What do you
think about the present rate of
expenditure per capita for higher
education?
RAVENEL: I think we should
hold higher education at the
present rate of expenditure. This
past year we were third in the
nation for expenditure per capita
for higher education and 50th in
pay for secondary education

teachers. We have the highest

backwards on that.
THURMOND: I'm strong on
education ? it's the hope of the
nation. '
Thurmond said he would rather
not comment on state education
