Stepping up the battle against government waste

By PHILIP C. CLARKE

Having nagged Congress into cutting sllO billion in government waste over the past three years, the Grace Commission of volunteer private business leaders is out to slash another $314 billion in wasteful federal spending. As the commission’s chairman and relentless costcutter. J. Peter Grace, explains: “We're in an all-out battle against the special interest groups who are fighting to raise taxes and reduce important defense and domestic programs.” Grace offers some examples of how taxpayers' money can be saved and the federal deficit can be eliminated: • Change the method of reimbursing physicians for Medicare and Medicaid. Instead of their charging the usual “customary and reasonable” fees, doctors would be paid under a simpler fixed fee schedule. The estimated savings over 36 months: $7.2 billion. • Turn over management of federal loan portfolios and collec-

tion of bad debts to the private sector, as some states are doing. Estimated savings: $6.5 billion. • Upgrade the federal computer systems and install automated data processing equipment in less than half the four years it's now taking. The savings to taxpayers: $4 billion over three years. • Impose user fees on individuals receiving public services for private purposes from the Census Bureau, Food and Drug Administration, International Trade Administration, Small Business Administration, and the Coast Guard. The savings: $4 billion. • Allow private investors to participate in the space program. The estimated net reduction in NASA's budget: $1.5 billion. • Penalize states when they spend federal grant money before they should, causing loss of interest for the federal government. The three-year savings to the Treasury: $1 2 billion. • Divest the government of its naval oil fields, which no longer have strategic value. The savings: sl.l billion. The Grace Commission's recommendations don't neglect

smaller savings of under $1 billion. For example, it says S2OO million could be saved by cancelling a satellite system to provide ■information for submarine warfare —a system the Navy doesn’t plan to use, anyway, because it costs more than it delivers. By eliminating such wasteful practices, says Grace, Uncle Sam could all but totally eliminate the federal deficit. Indeed. says the commission, “the deficit is almost entirely made up of waste. . . . Already we’re spending $4 billion a week to pay just the interest on the national debt. That means over half of all personal income taxes go for interest payments, not to run the government. If the interest payments climb much higher, we simply won't be able to meet our obligations and we will go bankrupt.”. Then, warns the Grace Commission, “Congress would have to raise every American’s personal taxes by nearly 40 percent in order to eliminate the deficit. . Cutting the waste is the answer.
