# "I'm very encourag young people invc politics today. Their and optimistic/' Brock Visits By PATTY MCCARTHY Staff Writer U.S. trade representative and cabinet member William E. Brock said Friday that young people involved in politics today "will make a nice difference in the political process." Brock made his first visit to USC Friday and Saturday since becoming the first holder of USC's Distinguished Chair in American Politics, an honor originating from the James F. Byrnes International Center. Brock holds the rank of ambassador and is President neagans personal trade representative in foreign trade matters. WHILE AT USC, he said the voter under age 40 today is "much more interested in real economic growth and has a strong resistance to government intervention. "I'm very encouraged by the kinds of young people involving themselves in politics today. Their attitudes are positive and optimistic." Brock considers this generation to be the "most tolerant generation of the century." ai tne request of USC President James Holderman, Brock is guest lecturer and seminar leader at USC. While here, he spoke with faculty members from the Department of Government and International Studies, met with Gov. Dick' Riley, spoke to government classes and held a graduate ? student and faculty seminar.

He said the two-party system offers a choice and that a one-party system becomes "in-bred, fat and sloppy." Brock, a former Republican National Committee cnairman, discussed his views of the Republican party trends today. Quoting the results of a recent poll, he said more people in the South are associated with the Republican party than with the Democratic party for the first time. He attributed this to the improving quality of the community base in the South among other factors. Brock said continued Republican popularity depends upon how the Reagan administration works. "The pros*/ects for substantial growth have much to do with how we perform in providing jobs, lowering inflation, etc." He said the party would be viewed "as one who keeps its word." Concerning his role as U.S. trade negotiator, Brock said in a press conference Friday that he is very excited and optimistic because he feels foreign firms are discovering that! American workers are more productive. For example, Brock said, the best and most productive Sony plant is in San Diego. He said Reagan's budget cuts will not affect college grants and loans. "I don't believe anyone who can go to college won't be able to because of this administration's actions." Brock is a former U.S. senator and representative.
