GIVEAWAYS PREVENT BALANCING BUDGET

THIS Rostenkowski wants to cut off the Social Security cost-of-living for a year. That's some of Reagan's doing. But he never balanced the budget. No, he bought a ranch and a $2 million house in Beverly Hills. They never will balance the budget as long as they are giving away billions of dollars each year. LEWIS E. BLANKENSHIP ROANOKE
