know this area and learn the
legislative process. I feel I
must give voters a chance to
use their investment for ser-
vice at a higher level if they
choose to.”
Senator Patman has been a
leading advocate of needed
legislation in the fields of
agriculture, education. in-
dustrial development, public
health, and governmental
reorganization.
A farmer and rancher him-
self, Patman authored the bill
to create the Texas Veterinary
Diagnostic Labuiaiury at Col-
lege Station, a facility that has
returned to cattlemen and
consumers eight dollars for
every one invested through
services in livestock disease
control.
Patman has long been
known as the Senate's most
effective fighter against the
sky-high interest rates that
fuel inflation and particularly
punish small borrowers, those
on fixed incomes, and those in
occupations such as farming
and small business whose
incomes often lag far behind in
the inflationary spiral.
A strong advocate of
protecting and developing our
natural resources along the
Coast. Patman has instru-
mental in establishment of the
fishing piers in Lavaca and
Copano Bays.
Patman has also earned a
reputation for his special
vigilance in catching and
stopping otherwise unnoticed
leaks in the stale treasury.
Last session, he alone pre-
vented a big bus company
boondoggle that would have
cost taxpayers $9.5 million
dollars. He also passed a bill
saving for use an estimated
$60,000 of a meaningless
technicality in the law. In
19/6, he won a 14-year battle
to establish a government
economy and reorganization
commission which is expected
to result in substantial taxpay-
er savings over the years to
come
In his announcement state-
ment, Patman. 52, said many
of the fights he has pursued
for two decades in the state
senate are now moving to the
national level.
“Like it or not.” he said.
“Washington is the center of
power. We gave it that power.
And we must take some of it
back. Our lives are over-
regulated. But right now
Washington is where the
decisions will be made to
attack our immediate and
pressing problems.”
Patman said inflation and
energy are the two major
problems that threaten the
security of this country. He
promised to explore these and
other issues with the voters, as
his campaign unfolds.
First elected to the Senate in
I960, Patman has been re-
elected six times, twice a
chieving overwhelming mar-
gins against formidable op-
ponents.
He has served on 19 Senate
committees, currently chairing
the Subcommittee on Agricul-
ture, serving as vice-chairman
of the Committee on Education
and a member of the Human
Resources and Natural Re-
sources Committees.
Patman is a graduate ol
Kemper Military School and
has law and business admini-
stration degrees from the
University of Texas. He is a
Marine Corps veteran and
served 13 years in the Air
Force Reserve.

Whether you re lost in a strange neighborhood,
or just going to be late for dinner, a telephone booth
is a welcome sight That’s why its important that we
keep them in working order In my job, I do more than
collect the change from the coin box I also make
sure that the instrument is working correctly. If it needs
minor repairs I do them on the spot That way, we
make sure that you get a working phone when you
need it. That’s one reason I'm proud to be one of the
people General Telephone is talking about when
