AN HRP spokesperson has al- so claimed that Fojtik was a "spendthrift," and claimed she was riding a "gravy train" -at the conventions. Fojtik replied: "I am more involved than the other com- missioners, and when you do more than expected, or if you do something, you're easily at- tacked." She continued, "this money is far better spent on me, a young commissioner with liber- al-to-radical ideas who's going to be around for a while, who's going to work and kick and scream, so that county gov- ernment won't be so goddamn conservative." THE BOAR Dof Cotn- missioners has a $5,000 budget for convention travel. There is no limit on individual expendi- tures, but commissioners must submit an expense estimate - subject to board approval - be- fore leaving. Following the trip, the travel- er must submit a travel expense report to the controller's office, within five days for reimburse-: ment. Other expenditures for out-of- town trips by county commis- sioners include: ,$228.74 charged by Alan Toth (D-Ypsilanti) for attend- ing a Mat meeting of the Na- tional Association of Counties in Washington; -$202.24 runrup by Bent Niel- sen (R-Ann Arbor) on a trip to a Michigan Association of Counties meeting on Mackinac Island in August. -$127.36 charged by Richard Walterhouse (R-Ann Arbor) for the same convention;t Dean gives testimony (Continued from Page 1) Ehrlichman, who has sub-E poenaed Nixon as a defense witness, was depicted by his lawyer as a man who wanted to give investigators full access to evidence, but was blocked re- peatedly by his boss, Nixon.

"Nothing is served by talking about hypothetical situations now," he said. grounds of poor health and on grounds of executive privilege. JUDGE John Sirica has said he will rule today on whether Nixon should appear. The prose- cution yesterday asked Sirica to send a panel of doctors to San Clemente, Calif. to examine Nixon and to determine whether he is fit to appear. The former president is recuperating from treatment for phlebitis. Dean was led through his testimony for nearly four hours today by Tennessee lawyer James Neal, the assistant spe- cial Watergate prosecutor who spearheaded the government's successful jury-tampering case against Teamsters Union boss Jimmy Hoffa in the early 1960s. Defense lawyers will get a chance to dispute Dean's ver- sion of events later in the three- to-four month trial.

All things considered you do what you do pretty doggone well. After all, no one has taken your job. And you're eating regularly. But... But have you ever considered what doing your job just a little better might mean? Money. Cold hard coin of the realm. If each of us cared just a smidge more about what we do for a living, we could actually turn that inflationary spiral around. Better products, better service and better management would mean savings for all of us. Savings of much of the cash and frayed nerves it's costing us now for repairs and inefficiency. Point two..By taking more pride in our work we'll more than likely see America regaining its strength in the competitive world trade arena. When the balance of payments swings our way again we'll all be better off economically.
