leaf from rected for two years running to identify obsolete, outmoded programs that could be trimmed, he hasa't done it. according to Rep. Lester Wolff (D-N a member of the I delegation The I' delegation forced a delaying tactic ia the Gea-eral Assembly's passage of the budget. It demanded item-by-item votes to draw atten RONALD REAGAN tioa to the grosser examples of pork barreling and dead-stood stacking. Hour later the budget was approved, but nth a warning from Wolff that he might drop a bill in the hopper in Congress to withhold IS.

contributions from some U.N -related groups Wolff claimed thai 41 percent of the aew U.N. budget is unnecessary The U.S. continues to pay sne fourth of the total U.N. outlay, despite the fact the organization, as a deliberating body, ha become little more thaa a propaganda forum for income redistribution advocates and tor highly selective attacks over human rights. (Chile, for example, was the subject of one sharply worded resolution that the United States co-sponsored, but another oa Uganda was shelved because the delegates from some black African nations, themselves aa models of freedom and Justice, considered it a veiled at bright blue, as some we have in Missouri.

I haven't got around to researching the identity of the species but that doesn't keep ma from being aware of weir presence. I believe they are called race runners. One of their distant relatives whkh does occur oa Sa-nibel and caa be easily identified because of lu sle hi the gianl Iguana. It resembes a lizard but may measure as much as four feet ia length. I remember seeing one ia a previous year which was probably half that long.

Maybe it hadn't gn( Its growth yet. Speaking of lizards. 1'vo heard of glass snakes but wily recently did I leant that at least those Hi southwest Florida are not snakes but legless lizards. A mark that distinguishes them from snake hi the presence of eyelids and ear openings. The reason they are called "glass" snakes is because if grabbed by the tail, the appendaite may break off.

They ran grow one to take its place but It will not be as long as the original. Also found on this island but not yet encountered by me is the unwelcome bufo toad, also known as marine toad. I understand that It was originally imported from Central America or somewhere la the Caribbean la hope of its helping control Insect pests la the sugar cane fields, a destiny tt did ant fulfill. The up to 1 inch long toad has poison glands around Its aeck which secrete a substance that may be toxic to small animals. It has been kaewa ta be fatal to little dogs which have bitten it Evea a large dog may be made sirk by it U.N.

takes By RONALD REAGAN Bureaucracy is probably the closest thing to immortality we'll ever see oa earth And, if there is one New Year's prediction )hu caa bet on, it ts that the bureaucrats and the programs they run will multiply. So will their budgets There is em thing all successful bureaucrats have la common the world over: a well honed instinct for survival. One classic example was the Federal Spruce Pro-due! wi Beard which came into being ia World War I to assure a steady supply of spruce wood for airplane propellers Long after the last "Jenny" had headed for the hangar it as still ia business and didn I fold till World War II Another example comes from England where, after the Spanish Armada was defeated, a defense-conscious government appointed a coastal lookout to signal If aa-other enemy fleet should hove In view. His successors canned the seas tor ghost ships for centuries The )ob wasa eliminated till IMS. nearly 489 years later.

The I'mted Nations ia no exceptioa. Its bureaucracy is highly paid, has been groing and administers more thaa a few out -of date or useless programs. Last week, evea (he I' delegation oftea a pushover for anything the so-called Third World members call tor these days got Its back up over the 's new budget.
