find good jobs or rise to such future challenges as dis- covering cures or inventing technologies keep us ahead In the world and provide for our national security" -The Nashville Democrat was featured speaker yesterday for Kingsport Education Association's Fall Banquet at First Broad Street United Methodist Church Discordant forces in the form of powerful single-issue groups are threatening to weaken the nation's political process Sasser said In an age dominated b4y mass media and direct mail people are becoming disillusioned with the political process That's a Times-News Nashville Bureau NASHVILLE Cissy Baker daughter of Senate Majority Leader Howard Baker and allbut-announced candidate for Tennessee's new Fourth Congressional District says she told her father to stay out of the

between people of all classificetionx and all walks of life" Sasser said '1 think we have an obligation to help students achieve their personal fulfillment' We must equip our young people to earn at their maximum There Is a direct correlation between the length and quality of education and income" During a brief press conference after his speech Sasser said he probably won't begin his re-election campaign in earnest until next spring or summer He plans to continue devoting his time to looking out for the interests of Tennesseans Commenting on the recent controversy raging over remarks made by federal budget director David Stockman in an article published in The Atlantic Monthly Sasser said "He has served the president very Director David Stockman's comments about the president's economic program were "only a ripple in the pond that won't last very long" He said Stockman should keep his job because "he is more responsible for the success of the president's programs to date than anyone else in the country other than the president himself" He added "We're too quick in this country to jump on a wounded man" Brock said the current squeeze on agricultural prices on the world market is because there are bumper crops everywhere in the world "Except in the Soviet Union where they have a perpetual weather problem" he added with a sarcastic grimace Brock also reaffirmed his faith in the eventual success of Reaganomics pointing out that interest rates and inflation have fallen considerably from their Carter-administration levels' "We should see further lowering of interest rates in 1982 as well as real improvement in economic growth" he said president's basic program in trying to reduce the budget "but I disagreed with his administration as to where some of the cuts should come I opposed many of the deep cuts in educational programs" Tuition tax credits granting income tax deductions to parents who send children to private elementary and secondary schools are the focus of another controversy Nine bills on the topic are pending in the Senate If $500 tax credit were approved he said it would cost the US Treasury about $5 billion in one year "This corriPs at a time when we're asked for a $15 billion reduction in federal support for public schools Such a tax credit would not be fiscally responsible and would have a devastating impact on public education" Chattanooga and to a fundraising reception here although Nashville is not in the district she seeks to serve In response to a question Brock said he was "not at all" bothered by the unorthodox practice of showing preference for a particular candidate when a primary election is still to be held Ms Baker bristled at a question suggesting that campaigning with her father's close friend might be the same thing as using her father's influence "Ambassador Brock is a good friend of mine also" she snapped repeating that she had asked her father to stay out of her race and out of the district She said her fundraising efforts began just today and she was unable to say how much has been raised The Chattanooga luncheon "had no specific price on it just what's called passing the said Last night's reception here was billed as a 8100 per person affair and a campaign worker said between 80 and 100 tickets had been sold by late 'afternoon Brock also accepted questions on national affairs saying re 11 ck II

them" Sasser said groups such as NCPAC 'pick an emotional issue and put their target on the opposite side no matter what the truth He warned the educators to "be alert to this type of demagoguery"

Ms Baker is the' only active contender for the Republican nomination and says she plans to make an official announcement "in the spring" She is the unabashed favorite of the state's leading
