Obama: 2-month tax cut only option

Mayor to visit Santa Fe

House Majority Leader Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., walks off the floor of the House chamber Tuesday.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Careening toward a politically toxic tax hike, President Barack Obama implored House Speaker John Boehner on Wednesday to get behind a twomonth stopgap until a longer deal could be struck early next year, calling it the only real way out of a mess that is threatening the paychecks of 160 million workers and isolating House Republicans.

In a weary Washington, the outreach accomplished little. All sides seemed to end the day where they

began, with heavy political and economic consequences at stake.

Boehner remained insistent on a full-year extension of the existing payroll tax cut before Jan. 1, urging Obama to haul Senate Democrats back to town to talk to his chosen negotiators. “Let’s get this done today,” Boehner told Obama, according to a speaker’s aide, who required anonymity to characterize a private conversation.

But the Capitol was emptying out fast, and the Sen-

ate showed no inclination to return, having already passed a bipartisan twomonth tax cut it thought had settled the matter.

For taxpayers, and for an economy starting to show some life again, the standoff was all holiday gloom.

Barring any action by Congress, Social Security payroll taxes will go up almost $20 a week for a worker making a $50,000 salary — that’s $40 less for a typical paycheck or $1,000 over the whole year.

Mayor Del Jur ney will travel to Santa Fe next week to present the city’s site selection for the Youth ChalleNGe Academy.

The program was allotted $2 million for new barracks through the $86 million capital outlay bill signed by Gov. Susana Martinez. The bill was passed during the legislative special session in September.

Lt. Col. Jamison Herrera, spokesman for the New Mexico Ar my National Guard, told the Daily Record in October that the current living dormitories for the program are World War II-style barracks, constructed in the 1950s, from the old air base.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indianapolis dominated the AFC South for nearly a decade.

With names like Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne and Jeff Saturday anchoring the offense, and Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis solidifying the defense, the other division teams struggled to keep up with the champs.

Not anymore. The power dynamic has changed dramatically this season, a shift that will be on full display Thursday night when new champion, Houston, meets the old one.

The city of Roswell is currently interviewing candidates for two battalion chief positions within the Roswell Fire Department.

City Manager Larry Fry said one of the positions became vacant due to a battalion chief resigning several months ago, and the other due to a battalion chief retiring at the end of

this year.

The RFD is constructed around three shifts, A, B, and C. There are three battalion chiefs within the RFD, one for each shift.

Members of the RFD, save for the deputy chief and chief, work for 24 hours and are off for 48 hours.

Fry described the battalion chief as the highest ranking shift personnel in the fire department on any given day. While the chief and

The fire marshals were also on hand to participate in training and conduct tests of different materials in the mock-ups of small rooms constructed on the site with particle board,

SANTA FE (AP) — A former Albuquerque real estate executive pleaded guilty Wednesday to two felony charges and agreed to serve up to 12 years in prison to settle charges he ran a Ponzi scheme that swindled nearly $75 million out of investors in at least eight states.

Doug Vaughan entered the plea Wednesday in federal court in Santa Fe to charges of mail and wire fraud.

Chief Judge Bruce Black will deter mine the final

sentence later, but the plea agreement calls for a minimum of 10 years and potentially up to 12 years.

The 64-year-old Vaughan agreed to pay a fine of up to $250,000, as well as restitution ordered by the court.

He will forfeit a house in Las Vegas, Nev., and the proceeds from personal property auctioned earlier this year.

The plea agreement settled a 30-count indictment, which could have meant up to life in prison for Vaughan had he been convicted

on all charges and given maximum sentences, according to his attorney, Amy Sirignano.

One of Vaughan’s investors, Bill Kraft of Albuquerque, left the courtroom unhappy with Vaughan’s potential sentence.

“Would you be satisfied with 12 years for $75 million?” said Kraft, 66.

He lost $300,000 through investments with Vaughan and has been forced to continue to work

Hensel bound over Drought, insects hammer trees in Lincoln NF for trial on witness intimidation charge JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

Ross Hensel, charged with intimidation of a witness, was bound over for trial in 5th District Court, Wednesday.

The alleged incident took place on Dec. 7, following a hearing in Magistrate Court for his girlfriend, Laura Collins, who is charged with burglary. Hensel, 54, is a co-defendant in the same case.

Chaves Country Sheriff’s Deputy James Seely testified that he was present when Hensel walked up to another witness sitting in the Magistrate Court rotunda and asked him, “Are you sure that’s what you saw?”

Assistant District Attorney Donald Moore showed the surveillance video from Dec. 7 to Seely, who confirmed the people on the scene.

The victim took the stand. David Archibeque said that when Hensel approached, he tried to warn him off. His testimony supported that of Seely about Hensel’s question.

According to the witness, then told Hensel Archibeque, “You just wait.“ Archibeque inquired if Hensel were making a threat, but he said that Hensel only shrugged. asked if Moore Archibeque felt threatened, an essential component to an intimidation charge.

Archibeque replied, “Yes, I felt threatened. I felt my life was threatened, my wife threatened, my family was threatened.”

Under cross-examination, Jesse Cosby wanted to know if the rule had been invoked. The rule refers not only to the exclusion of witnesses from the court hearing, but also the prohibi-

tion placed on a witness not to discuss the case or any events leading up to the trial after they had taken the oath.

Cosby asked what Seely and Archibeque had been discussing when Hensel approached them.

Archibeque said he had known Seely for 25 years and informed the attorney that they had been talking about hunting.

The last witness for the state was Harry Wilcox, who is the defendant’s attorney in a separate case.

He was subpoenaed by the prosecutor to testify.

Cosby objected to the witness and to the “state interfering with the attorney-client relationship.” He feared that the state’s questions may violate client-attorney confidentiality.

Moore said that Wilcox was an essential eyewitness and said he would phrase his questions in such a way to ensure attorney-client confidentiality was not violated.

Magistrate Court Judge Eugene De Los Santos noted Cosby’s objection and warned Moore, “I will pay close attention to this line of questioning.”

Wilcox admitted that he had seen the two men together, but had not heard the exchange. Wilcox said he called his client away to talk with him, but would not say what was discussed.

In his summation, Cosby argued for dismissal of the charges. “There has been no bribery. No intimidation.

It’s a challenge whether it’s (the testimony) accurate.”

De Los Santos ruled that probable cause does exist and bound Hensel over for trial.

Damage done by ponderosa pine bark beetles in Lincoln National Forest.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A combination of drought and insect infestation has taken its toll this year on trees throughout the Southwest, but state and federal forestry officials said Wednesday the effects in southern New Mexico have been particularly striking.

Brown patches of ponderosa pine trees have been surveyed across tens of thousands of acres of the Lincoln National Forest, particularly in the Sacramento Mountains.

Here, the number of acres showing signs of tree mortality has jumped from 380 in 2010 to 41,000 acres this year.

The Mescalero Apache tribe has seen more than a 140-fold increase, with tree mortality reported on some 22,000 acres this

year. The story is the same for state and private land.

“It’s a significant jump, and it’s because drought has stressed the trees and this has allowed the population of bark beetles to attack more trees,” said Katherine Sanchez Meador, a spokeswoman for the Lincoln National Forest.

If the drought persists, she said tree stress and mortality will likely increase next year.

Land managers have been busy this week pouring over new aerial and ground surveys done on forest lands in New Mexico and Arizona. The annual surveys look for everything from signs of bark beetles to declines in aspen stands.

Arizona has not been

Off-duty cop foils egging

An of f-duty detective foiled potential vandalism, Tuesday evening. The detective was standing in line at Walmart, 4500 N. Main St., when she noticed five or six teenagers ahead of her each carrying a couple of dozen eggs.

Upon questioning, the Dexter youths revealed that they were planning to go out “egging” people’s homes. No citations were issued since the possible crime had been prevented.

Roswell Police Department spokesman Officer Travis Holley said, “It pays to remember that we’re still a small enough community that officers on-duty or off

will notice suspicious behavior and report it.”

Chief Alfonso Solis noted that the RPD has started shoplifting patrols at area businesses to help stop property theft. “We have plain clothes officers in the stores and unmarked cars patrolling the parking lots around town.”

The goal is to ensure people have a happy holiday season. “We don’t want any children losing toys this year if we can prevent it. We can’t tell you where they are going to be or when they are going to be at any one location. We can just tell you that they are there.”

hit as hard by drought as New Mexico or neighboring Texas, and trees there fared better than in previous years. Overall, the survey turned up fewer acres of dead trees, said Arizona State Forester Scott Hunt.

Still, Hunt said land managers are keeping a close eye on some areas to ensure bark beetles don’t start to build up their populations. Those areas include forests charred by massive fires last summer and an area in northern Arizona where a tornado touched down last year and took out about 10,000 acres of national forest and state trust land.

“For right now, we’re more concerned about the overall general health of the forests and things we need to do to get forests restored so they can be more resilient,” Hunt said.

In New Mexico, there’s not much land managers can do to combat the drought. More than 90 percent of the state continues to suffer from some level of drought, and forecasters say there’s a high probability that New Mexico will feel the effects of another La Niña weather pattern again this winter.

That’s what forecasters call a “double-dip La Niña.”

Danny Norlander, a forest health specialist with Mexico State New Forestry, said back-toback dry winters usually correlate well with increases in bark beetles.

“By no means is this a massive outbreak,” he

said, referring to the ponderosa pine bark beetle.

“It’s just an increase that is important to keep in mind, especially if we get a double-dip La Niña like they’re predicting.”

Officials in New Mexico tried to put this year’s tree die-off into perspective by noting that heavily forested areas in Alaska and even Colorado have seen signs of tree mortality over millions of acres.

Even Texas of ficials have reported that as many as a half-billion trees have died from that state’s record year of drought.

Sanchez Meador said what the Lincoln National Forest is experiencing is a fraction of that, not to mention it’s part of a natural cycle.

“We always lose trees, and some years it’s worse than others,” she said.

“When you’re out in the woods, you’re always going to see dead trees here and there just like you see little saplings.”

Snow fell on the Lincoln forest this week, and officials are holding out hope for more. Sanchez Meador said more moisture will be the key to helping those already-stressed trees ward of f more beetle attacks.

If Mother Nature doesn’t come through, the forest plans to continue using thinning and prescribed burning to reduce stress on trees and increase their ability to fend of f insects and other disease.

Some 16,000 acres were treated this year.

Roy Frazier to stand trial

Chaves County Magistrate Court Judge Eugene De Los Santos bound Roy Frazier, 60, over for trial in District Court Wednesday.

Frazier is charged with two counts of sexual exploitation of a minor.

The state’s only witness, Chaves County Sheriff’s Detective Doug Perham, explained the process of investigating Inter net pornography by which the data are isolated, the ISP address traced, the images extracted from the computer, and the original drive preserved by the Chaves County Taskforce.

He brought two samples, a video advertised as “11year -old brother ... 13year -old sister and rated ‘XXX’,” and a still photograph of a small child exposed.

Perham testified that, according to the National Center for Missing and LETTERS Exploited Children the video was “notable,” in other words, noted by the

agency as child pornography.

Defense attorney James Lowry argued that the second photograph of the halfnaked toddler used to be considered innocent. “What parent hasn’t snapped a picture of their two-year old child running around the house? I think of it as someone who hasn’t learned about shame.”

In her summation, Assistant District Attor ney Debra Hutchins countered, “Clearly this picture was posed. He (the defendant) deliberately downloaded these files.”

De Los Santos agreed with the prosecutor. “The state was right in bringing this case before this court.

These children should never be exploited. I encourage you to continue.

Let’s bring these children home.”

Economy ends tough 2011 on a surprising upswing Roswell Daily Record

WASHINGTON (AP) — The economy is ending 2011 on a roll.

The job market is healthier. Americans are spending lustily on holiday gifts. A long-awaited turnaround for the depressed housing industry may be under way. Gas is cheaper. Factories are busier. Stocks are higher.

Not bad for an economy faced with a debt crisis in Europe and, as recently as last summer, scattered predictions of a second recession at home. Instead, the economy has grown faster each quarter this year, and the last three months should be the best.

“Things are looking up,” says Chris Rupkey, chief financial economist at the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ. When The Associated Press surveyed 43 economists in August, they pegged the likelihood of another recession at roughly one in four. The Dow Jones industrial average was lurching up or down by 400 points or more some days.

There was plenty of reason for gloom. A political standoff over the federal borrowing limit brought the United States to the brink of default and cost the nation its top-drawer credit rating.

Most analysts now rule out another recession. They think the economy will grow at an annual rate of more than 3 percent from October through December, the fastest pace since a 3.8 percent performance in the spring of last year.

Many economists still worry that the year -end surge isn’t sustainable, in part because the average worker’s pay is barely rising. And Europe may already be sliding into a recession that will infect the United States.

The outlook could darken further if Congress can’t break the impasse blocking an extension of a Social Security tax cut for 160 million Americans and emergency unemployment benefits.

Yet for now, the economy is on an upswing that few had predicted: — JOBS: The number of people applying for unemployment benefits came in at 366,000 last week, down from a peak of 659,000 in March 2009. Even in good economic times, the figure would be between 280,000 and 350,000.

Employers have added at least 100,000 jobs five months in a row, the longest streak since 2006.

And the unemployment rate fell from 9 percent in October to 8.6 percent last month, the lowest since March 2009.

Small businesses are hiring again, too, according to the National Federation of Independent Business.

part time rather than retiring. He sells and maintains copying equipment, and said he has little hope of getting his money back from Vaughan despite the restitution requirement in the plea deal.

“He was my second largest customer and it never occurred to me he was a crook,” Kraft said.

Vaughan ran an investment scheme in which money put by later investors was used to help pay false profits to earlier ones.

Prosecutors say Vaugh-

Salesworks in Norwood, Mass., which helps technology companies like Motorola find new customers. The firm has hired 26 workers to restore its staff to 56, erasing the job cuts from the recession.

CEO Paul Alves plans to add an employee or two a month as long as growth continues.

“I do see more confidence than I saw 12 months ago,” Alves says. “But it’s good, not great. Robust isn’t the word I’d use.”

— SPENDING: The holiday shopping season has turned out better than anyone expected. Sales from November through Saturday were up 2.5 percent from last year. Americans have spent $32 billion online, 15 percent more than a year ago. Retails sales were up in November for the sixth month in a row. People are spending, in particular, on clothes, cars, electronics and furniture.

— CONSUMER CONFIDENCE: Americans felt better about the economy in November than they had since July, according to the Conference Board, a business group that tracks the mood of consumers.

The board’s consumer confidence index climbed 15 points to 56 in November, the biggest one-month jump since April 2003.

During the Great Recession, the index fell as low as 25.

“It seems like the confidence of the traditional American consumer is higher right now,” says Jim Newman, executive vice president of operations at the digital marketing company Acquity Group, which has added 100 jobs since summer.

— GAS: Falling prices at the pump have freed more money for consumers to spend on appliances, furniture, vacations and other things that help drive the economy. The national average for regular unleaded has sunk to $3.21 a gallon since peaking at $3.98 in May, according to the AAA Daily Fuel Gauge.

— INVENTORIES: Businesses are restocking shelves and warehouses, more confident that customers will buy their products. In October, their inventories were up 8.7 percent from a year earlier.

An increase in inventories is expected to account for perhaps a third of growth this quarter.

The battered housing market might be showing signs of recovery. Home construction rose more than 9 percent in November from October, driven by apartment building. And the National Association of Realtors said Wednesday that sales of previously occupied homes rose 4 percent in November.

But housing is climbing out of a deep hole: The an swindled 600 investors in at least eight states, with victims in New Mexico, Arizona, Washington, Oregon, New Jersey, Texas, Virginia and Colorado.

The scheme involved people loaning money to Vaughan in exchange for promissory notes that carried high interest rates and were issued through his now-defunct Vaughan Company Realtors, which was once the largest independent residential brokerage in New Mexico.

The loans were supposed to be used for real estate investments that apparently were never made. When the scheme collapsed, Vaughan and

Shop Roswell

existing homes sold at an annual rate of 4.4 million — well below the 6 million that would signal a healthy housing market. And the real-estate agents’ trade group revealed Wednesday that it overstated sales by 3.5 million during and after the Great Recession.

Once they peer into 2012, economists turn cautious. Bernard Baumohl, chief economist with the Economic Outlook Group, says that stronger consumer spending “is absolutely unsustainable. .... Wages have not kept pace with inflation all year.”

The gover nment says that once you adjust for inflation, weekly earnings dropped 1.8 percent from November 2010 to last month. Consumers have used savings or credit cards to finance their purchases. Once bills come due in early 2012, Baumohl foresees a cutback in spending.

Baumohl is so pessimistic that he expects the economy to shrink at a 0.2 percent annual rate in the first three months of 2012 and to end the year with no more than 1.8 percent growth.

Europe is almost sure to slide into recession, even if its policymakers find a solution to the continent’s debt crisis. In the worst case, a chaotic breakup of the euro currency could ignite a worldwide financial panic.

Joe Echevarria, CEO of the accounting and consulting firm Deloitte LLP, says his company’s clients are delaying hiring or expansion decisions to see if Europe’s crisis will be resolved.

Another worry — again — is Washington. President Barack Obama and Republicans in Congress still had not broken their impasse Wednesday on how to extend a Social Security tax cut. Without an extension, taxes will go up $1,000 in 2012 for someone making $50,000. A couple making $100,000 each would pay $4,000 more.

Failing to extend the tax cut, combined with the end of long-term unemployment benefits and other federal budget cuts, could shave 1.7 percentage points from growth in 2012, war ns Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics.

Forecasters are also chastened by the past two years. Since the Great Recession officially ended in June 2009, the economy has stalled twice just when it appeared to be gaining momentum.

In mid-2010, businesses slowed spending sharply.

This year, the damage came from protests in the Middle East that drove oil prices higher at the start of the year, the earthquake in Japan in March, budget cuts by state and local gover nments and the stale-

his company filed petitions for bankruptcy court protection in February 2010.

Vaughan agreed to the plea deal a few weeks after court documents were unsealed showing his long-time assistant planned to testify against him.

U.S. Attorney Kenneth Gonzales said he was satisfied with the outcome of the prosecution and the potential sentence facing Vaughan.

“It brings about some certainty to what has been an uncertain matter,” Gonzales said after the plea hearing, which he attended.

But Joel Naroff of Naroff Economic Advisors says he thinks the fears about next year are overblown and the economy will grow 3 percent in 2012. Next year will be all about jobs. If job growth keeps accelerating, the economy is much more likely to meet Naroff’s pre-

dictions than the pessimists’.

In addition, Naroff says, that’s because consumers and businesses have grown more confident. If Europe averts disaster — a crackup of the eurozone — and endures only a mild recession, as Naroff expects, the impact on the United

States will be minimal, he says.

“If you stopped the average person on the street and asked, ‘Are you slowing your spending because of what’s happening in Europe?’ they’d ask, ‘What planet are you from?”’

OPINION

Ambitious lieutenant governors might keep governor home Gov. Susana Martinez is fond of crossing into El Paso frequently for a few hours to visit family, and this has brought some public attention to the “traveling governor” provision of New Mexico’s Constitution.

A sentence in Article 5, Section 7, says: “In case the governor is absent from the state, or is for any reason unable to perform his duties, the lieutenant governor shall act as governor, with all the powers, duties and emoluments of that office until such disability be removed.”

Emoluments, even!

Maybe, some folks are saying, this horse-and-buggy provision is obsolete in the era of instant communication. It should not be necessary to transfer the reins of government if the governor crosses the state line for a couple of hours, as no emergency is likely to arise to which she could not respond (faster, maybe, if she had

kept that jet airplane, but that’s for another day).

Maybe it should not even be necessary if the governor leaves the state for a longer period, since the tools of instant communication work almost everywhere, except maybe North Korea. Hmm. And we’d save the bonus that the lieutenant governor is paid for those days of service.

But perhaps we should not be so hasty to change this provision, for one reason: It may encourage future governors to stay home and focus on New Mexico’s business, rather than showboating at

Roswell Daily Record

national conferences and gallivanting around the world, as our previous governor was fond of doing. This would be especially true if the gover nor and lieutenant governor did not necessarily like each other much or have identical political visions.

Which brings us to a broader consideration of the lieutenant gover nor’s place in the grand scheme of things.

I witnessed a remarkable, completely unreported, moment in the history of the New Mexico lieutenant governorship.

In 1994, a candidate debate was held among three candidates for lieutenant governor: Republican Walter Bradley, running mate of Gary Johnson; a fellow from the Green party; and Patricia Madrid, running mate of Bruce King.

The moderator asked each candidate what was the most important duty of the lieutenant gover-

nor. Madrid answered, “Succession.” The few reporters in the room missed this entirely, but I fell off my chair.

Succession, meaning being prepared for the governor to die in office, is something we think, but we are supposed to be too polite to say. Ever. (John McCain, after losing the nomination in 2000, famously said that one of the two duties of the vice president is to inquire daily as to the health of the president.)

It was rumored that Madrid and the Kings didn’t like each other. They were paired on the ticket (they lost, remember) only because our Constitution mandates a shotgun wedding. The party’s nominee for governor is stuck with whoever wins the nomination for lieutenant governor. Unlike candidates for president, New Mexico gubernatorial candidates don’t have the luxury of choosing their running mates.

So if we’re going to mess with the Constitution and laws affecting the lieutenant governor, we might want to consider the method of selection as more worthy of attention, in the interest of the smooth administration of government and the ease of future governors.

Or perhaps not. Maybe there is some advantage to us citizens in having lieutenant governors who have not been selected for their loyalty to the boss.

Just think of what an independent-minded lieutenant governor might do, with all those powers and emoluments, if some future governor leaves the state for a week or more. The mere thought of it could keep future governors stuck at home in New Mexico, exactly where we want them. © New Mexico News Services 2011

Iraq War ends in uncertainty

A war that began with shock and awe nearly nine years ago ended quietly as President Barack Obama declared the Iraq War over, and the last American troops began heading home.

This was the longest war in U.S. history, and its most costly recent conflict. Roughly 4,500 Americans died, 32,000 were wounded, and the price tag exceeds $800 billion.

President George W. Bush led the nation into this war in 2003 with the goal of disarming the Saddam Hussein regime and establishing Iraq as a democratic stronghold in the region.

Saddam, as it turns out, did not have the weapons the United States and its key allies thought he had.

And Iraq’s democratic transformation is far from complete as America severs its military involvement with the country.

We would like to believe that any war America fights, particularly one that extracts such a high price, is worth the sacrifice. We can’t say that with certainty about Iraq.

For sure, the toppling of Saddam and his bloodthirsty regime is a plus for the people of Iraq and for the world. Dictators of his ilk are finding the world an uncomfortable place these days.

But more than 100,000 Iraqis may have died in the effort to liberate them, and large swaths of the country were reduced to rubble.

An inept strategy at the beginning of the war allowed insurgencies to form and outside agitators to move in, prolonging the conflict and increasing the casualties.

The tide of the war changed only after Bush agreed to a troop surge. Give Obama credit for managing the troop drawdown in a responsible way.

A credible argument can be made that the preoccupation with Iraq allowed al-Qaida to flourish in Afghanistan, making that ongoing fight harder to win.

It’s undeniable that the invasion of Iraq limited America’s ability to act in Iran, which is without a doubt developing a nuclear weapon.

The financial burden also was heavy. The amount spent on the war would have covered most of America’s deficit.

And what is the return?

That remains uncertain.

Even as we leave Iraq, there’s nothing decisive about the results of the campaign. Iraqis have elected a representative government, and reports indicate its security forces are growing more effective.

The foundations for a functional society are in place.

But we have established no permanent ties to the country and have no confidence that Iraq in our absence will not forge alliances with our enemies, Iran and al-Qaida. If that happens, Iraq could become an even greater threat to American interests than it was before the war began.

Obama and Iraqi President Nouri al-Maliki were unable to negotiate an agreement to keep a small allied force in Iraq to assure long-term stability. The two presidents do not have a strong relationship.

The future of Iraq is uncertain, and now beyond our control.

Perhaps the best benediction for the Iraq War was delivered by Obama when he said, “Wars are easier to start than they are to end.”

DEAR DOCTOR K: A friend recently told me that his elderly aunt had to stay a few days in the hospital after a surgery.

While there, she developed mental confusion that he called delirium. What surprised me was that he said this is fairly common. Why would a hospital stay cause delirium?

DEAR READER: Being a hospital patient can be a frightening experience for anyone. Unfortunately, some patients — particularly older ones — develop delirium. This can make the hospital experience truly terrifying.

Delirium is a temporary condition, in this case brought on by the unfamiliar surroundings of a hospital. You’re cor-

Government spending jobs myth RICHARD W. RAHN CATO INSTITUTE

Do increases in government spending increase or decrease the number of jobs? Conventional wisdom is they will increase jobs, and a few leftwing economists, such as Paul Krugman of the New York Times, frequently are trotted out by reckless politicians and some in the news media to argue that we need more government spending in order to create jobs. If this were true, we should be able to see it in the historical evidence, so let’s look at the numbers.

rect that delirium is a state of mental confusion. People with delirium have great trouble organizing their thoughts.

Their memory becomes poor.

They may have hallucinations, seeing or hearing people and things that are not really there. They may talk to people who are not there.

Delirium usually comes on suddenly, and symptoms can

Government spending grows each year, but what is relevant is whether it is increasing or decreasing as a percentage of gross domestic product and how it relates to the percentage of the adult labor force at work. The data shows there is an inverse relationship between increasing the size of government and job creation. This empirical evidence, along with much other evidence, is contrary to the argument made by those calling for more gover nment spending to create jobs. Some who argue for more government spending, such as econ-

change unpredictably. People with delirium can be anxious and restless. They can be a threat to themselves — in their confusion, they can try to get out of bed and wander around.

That’s a real problem when they have multiple tubes (like intravenous lines) in them.

Delirium can be upsetting for family members. I remember one patient of mine, a man of great intelligence and a very strong personality. Pretty much everyone — family, friends, co-workers — deferred to him. He was supremely rational and fair, and always in command. I’ll never forget the expression on his daughter’s face the night she visited him in the hospital and saw her proud father issuing

omist Mark Zandi of Merrill L ynch, use neo-Keynesian models to justify their conclusions — conveniently ignoring the fact that such models almost always have been wrong.

What also typically is ignored by the neo-Keynesians is that there is an enormous tax extraction cost for the government to obtain each additional dollar. Estimates of this extraction cost typically run from $1.40 to well over $2.50 of lost output for each dollar the government obtains. In addition, there is vast literature showing how specific gov-

instructions to an empty room.

Although delirium is a temporary condition, it unfortunately can be a sign of bad things to come. People who develop delirium are at higher risk in the future for developing per manent dementia, requiring institutionalization, and premature death. That’s true regardless of their age and how sick they are.

What is it about hospitalization that can trigger delirium?

We don’t know all the answers.

Alcohol withdrawal, dehydration, various medications and general anesthesia can all contribute.

Maybe the most important reason is that people are in an See DR. K, Page A5

ernment spending programs have little or even negative benefit and, as a result, are actually wealth and job destroyers. Thus, the real deadweight loss of additional government taxing and spending is estimated to be in the $3 to $4 range.

If additional gover nment spending could create more jobs, it would be expected that over the long run, the socialist or semisocialist economies would have full employment and the smaller-government, developed economies would

Ah, retirement. Who doesn’t look forward to that glorious day?

But what are you doing with your retirement? Are you doing all those things you put off while working? Or did you pull up the rocking chair (recliner) and are spending your time watching TV? Have you lost your spouse or another loved one and are lonely and just waiting to die? Maybe you hurt, so moving around is too much effort.

Well, if you fit that profile, now’s the time to make a change.

Jan. 1 is almost upon us, so it’s time to make some New Year’s resolutions. Sitting home alone is not healthy. And neither is being inactive.

There are so many things for seniors to do in Roswell. For one thing, if you are alone and feeling sorry for yourself, volunteering might be just the ticket. Helping

someone else is a great way to help yourself. There are all kinds of volunteer opportunities. If you’re affiliated with a church, that might be a good place to start. Many church groups volunteer at such places as the Community Kitchen. And perhaps the church itself could use help.

Eastern New Mexico Medical Center’s Auxiliary is another good place to volunteer. There are a variety of positions from the hospitality (gift) shop to the thrift shop. You can contact L ynda Whalen at the hospital, 6228170, for more information. And speaking of thrift shops, there are several in town that could use volunteer labor.

The J.O.Y. Center provides a variety of services for seniors as well as fun activities and volunteer opportunities. They also offer a mini-employment service for seniors in case you’d like to be paid for your work. For more information, call Charlie Phillips

This loss of sensory input can cause confusion. Lack of daylight or access to news of current events can increase disoriented feelings. Lastly, hospital procedures, schedules and noises can interfere with sleep, which can lead to confusion.

You’d be amazed at how much better you’d feel if you exercise, especially if you have arthritis.

have higher unemployment. Again, the empirical evidence shows just the opposite. Sweden and Canada are examples of countries that reduced government spending as a percentage of GDP 15 years ago, and as a result, both countries saw increased economic growth and employment.

The length of the periods in the chart was determined by the number of years in which the government trended relatively larger or smaller. The World War II and Korean War years were left out because of the necessary jumps in government spending as a percentage of GDP. Even during those wartime periods, there was almost no change in civilian employment as a percentage of GDP. The Vietnam War had little impact on the size of government. A big increase in government spending started during the Nixon administration after the end of the war, as many of his predecessor’s Great Society programs started to have an impact, along with Nixon’s big increase in government programs. As he famously said, “We are all Keynesians now.”

Government spending as a percentage of GDP almost tripled between 1929 and 1939 under Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt, yet the number of Americans at work fell through this period despite a growing population. The percentage of growth in government spending was less than GDP growth during the period from 1983 to 2000 (Ronald Reagan through Bill Clinton), and job growth soared.

I expect no amount of evidence will persuade Mr. Krugman and President Obama that they have it totally

backward. Over the years, I have had the good fortune to know a number of the Nobel laureates in economics and have found them to be careful scholars, not allowing their political leanings to overcome what they believe to be good economics.

Mr. Krugman is the exception. He frequently misstates the good work of others. His attack on the Austrian School economists last week is a prime example.

The Austrians, such as F.A. Hayek, argued that governments tend to debase currencies (when they are not tied to gold or other commodities) by creating too much money to cover excessive spending, resulting in inflation. Mr. Krugman acknowledges that there has been a very large increase in the money supply, so he asks, “Where is the inflation?” First, he greatly understates the current rate of inflation (3.4 percent over the past year), and then he ignores the fact that changes in the velocity of money (the number of times a dollar changes hands in a year) also determine the rate of inflation.

Businesses and individuals are now hoarding cash because of tax and regulatory uncertainty; hence, velocity is down, even though the supply of money is up.

The Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank are creating money to bail out the indebted countries.

They are either going to have to stop and destroy much of the new money they have created, or there will be a great inflation when velocity returns to normal. My bet is that at some point, inflation will come roaring back, and I also bet Mr. Krugman and others in his camp will no more admit they are wrong about that than they have about the destructive effects of increases in government spending. Some are forever blind to evidence.

Almost 2 million people would lose unemployment benefits as well.

The political risks seemed only to deepen, too, particularly for House Republicans. They appeared poised to take the biggest blame for a tax increase even while pushing for a deeper one.

The reliably conservative editorial page of The Wall Street Journal blasted both Boehner and Sen. Mitch McConnell, the GOP leader, for how they handled the

Currently the fate of the old barracks, which belong to the city, is undetermined. The mayor said the city has received requests regarding their future use.

Jurney said the goal of the new barracks is to provide facilities “that don’t require the same maintenance but also to get it where they can increase their enrollment. They’ve got room for 50 kids, and they really need to be able to bring in 150 kids.” Stu-

to show whether vehicles were in use when some gas purchases were made by about two dozen people. In other cases, there were no receipts to support purchases made with gas cards.

The audit comes in the wake of a scandal over fraudulent gas card use by for mer commissioner Jerome Block Jr., who resigned in October and has pleaded guilty to several felonies. The audit said Block made $8,842 in improper purchases with a state credit card.

Auditors said 20 individuals bought premium gas in violation of state regulations. The purchases totaled $9,750. Some of those purchases were by Block. An investigator for the attorney general’s office suggested in a search warrant affidavit earlier this year that some of Block’s premium gasoline purchases may have been for a personal vehicle.

matter. “The GOP leaders have somehow managed the remarkable feat of being blamed for opposing a one-year extension of a tax holiday that they are surely going to pass,” the paper’s editorial said.

In a year of legislative brinksmanship remarkable even by Washington standards, the latest fight spilled into the lap of Republican candidates running for president.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich chastised Congress, particularly the Senate, for failing to extend the 2 percentage point tax cut for a full year.

Rival Mitt Romney

refused to take a position, again steering clear of Washington’s hot policy debate.

But the White House made clear the time for talks were over for this year.

“The negotiating has happened already,” presidential spokesman Jay Carney said, referring to the Senate bill the White House insists was sealed with Boehner’s blessing.

Boehner disputes that he ever gave a nod of support to the two-month tax cut that many in his caucus oppose.

He and other House members call it a poor and

unworkable tax policy.

Obama also called the Senate’s Democratic leader, Harry Reid, and praised him for the bipartisan taxcut bill with McConnell that passed the Senate.

Obama did most of the talking in his 10-minute call to Boehner.

The president made clear to Boehner that this was essentially his last legislative chance. There was no other option under consideration except the twomonth tax bill, no surprise last-minute deal, and no real chance that Reid was calling the Senate back, according to an administration of ficial who spoke

anonymously to describe the private phone call.

From Boehner’s perspective, the only real progress was that Obama had shown engagement with the speaker that he had not in weeks, according to an aide who also spoke anonymously to describe internal thinking.

Obama for months has called for a year -long extension of the tax cut; he would prefer that it be deepened, too, although that idea never went anywhere in Congress. Obama reiterated to Boehner that he wants to work out a fullyear deal with Congress but there is no time for that

to be done right now.

Overall, the stalemate has centered on how to pay for another year’s tax cut without adding to the deficit. That is the debate ahead — if the two-month deal gets done first.

Boehner’s reaction gave no hints of a breakthrough, even though House Republicans appear increasingly isolated. They’re not getting support from Senate Republicans and are battling against a president whose approval numbers, while not impressive, are better than theirs.

dents statewide are enrolled in the program in Roswell.

The city allocated $35,000 in last year’s budget that the program can use for maintenance.

“It took pressure off of their budget and gave them some dollars to be able to put into maintenance repairs they had until the new facility is built. Also the federal gover nment matches that 2 to 1. So overall I think they were able to obtain about $105,000,” Jurney said.

One of the major parameters for the projected proj-

ect is that the barracks remain within a half-mile of Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell. The site the city has chosen, and will present, is on the corner of West Earl Cummins Blvd., and West Martin Street, west of University High. The land is currently vacant.

While the city has looked at many locations, Jurney said this parcel of land “seems to fit well, and accomplishes all the things that they want.”

The projected plan is to build two new barracks, one for females and one for

males, on the property. A portion of one of the barracks will also include office space. Jurney said the city will contribute the land for the project.

“The city is the fiscal agent for the money, for the Legislature, but it’s their (the National Guard’s) program and we want it to be according to how they feel best in setting it up.” Jurney said Jur ney will meet with Maj. Gen. Kenny C. Montoya, the adjutant general for the NMNG, and his staff on Dec. 28. During the meeting, Jurney will pres-

ent an aerial photo of the land in addition to several side dimensions. “They can get an idea of how big a parcel land it is, and how much of it they might want to utilize and how they’d want to position it,” he said.

Since the city is serving as the fiscal agent, it will select and be in charge of the request for bid process for the project. “We certainly hope that any construction jobs that occur in the city of Roswell can be done by a local contractor,” Jurney said. Throughout the bid process, the city must

follow the guidelines within New Mexico’s procurement code and statute.

“The intent is to make sure that as the legislators finish the 2012 session, and they start to go out and sell the bonds to finance the capital improvements. We want to be ready to say, ‘yes we’ve crossed this bridge, we’re this far along,’ and so then we can really get after it and get it accomplished in a relatively short period of time,” Jurney said.

rently being conducted.

Fry said he believes all those applying for the positions are currently lieutenants within the department. He estimated that one pool consists of 10 applicants, and the other of 11.

The city will shortly open the application period for the position of fire chief, which will soon be vacant. Roswell Fire Chief James Salas announced he is retiring ef fective Dec. 30. Deputy Chief Chad Hamill was appointfied by auditors.

“While we have not had a chance to fully review the report, we feel confident the issues raised have been addressed and corrected moving forward,” said PRC spokesman Arthur Bishop.

The agency has implemented new policies for use of gas credit cards, including electronic alerts when an employee buys fuel twice in one day or anything other than regular gasoline or diesel. The PRC also has created standardized logs to track vehicle use, which will allow for proper reporting of fringe benefit income to workers who commute in a state vehicle.

The IRS requires documentation of business and personal use of vehicles.

Because of a lack of recordkeeping, auditors said, the PRC agency has been “underreporting fringe benefit income to employees and commissioners who are commuting in a state vehicle by an undetermined amount.”

“The independent audit finds serious violations of federal tax law by both commissioners and employees at the Public Regulation Commission,”

ed as acting chief during the interim and will serve until someone is selected, Fry said.

The salary for a chief within the RFD ranges from $58,162 to $76,096.

They do not have overtime built into their salary.

Fry said when the city begins accepting applications for chief, he suspects the application period to remain open for around 30 days.

j.bergman@rdrnews.com

State Auditor Hector said in a statement.

Another audit of the PRC is still pending and it will cover gas card and vehicle use over more years.

Balderas said he would refer any state and federal law violations to the proper agencies.

The audit released Wednesday covers the most recent fiscal year, which ended in June.

Auditors found a lack of necessary records for the use of state vehicles on three out-of-state trips last year. The report said one commissioner, who was not identified, improperly used a pickup truck that had been purchased with federal money. The commissioner drove the truck for 30 days and “this usage was inconsistent with the purposes of the federal program.”

The five-member elected commission sets rates for electric and natural gas utilities, insurance companies and some telecommunications services. It also regulates motor carriers such as taxis, moving vans and ambulances, and registers corporations.

In addition, the exercise illustrated the dif ferent ignition rates of standard fur niture. “The chair is made of foam rubber. It is highly flammable. It’s a petroleum product. We call it solid gas because that is essentially what it is,” he said.

He added that furniture made from compressed particle board flames more quickly than solid wood.

“It’s the glue that holds the pieces together that is flammable.”

Sorenson discussed the preservation of evidence on

the scene. “It’s not just go in and put out the fire and forget about it. The investigators have to go in afterwards. The new recruits need to know what (the investigators) are looking for.”

According to the instructors and the on-lookers, the rate of ignition and burn pattern is lifesaving knowledge for firefighters. “They need to know when to retreat from a fire for their own safety and when to continue fighting it,” said RFD veteran Fire Apparatus Operator Steve Chavez.

Chaves reviewed the four stages of a fire. The ignition or incipient stage has little visible smoke or flame and very little heat. The growth stage occurs as the fire smolders. It is character-

ized by smoke, but little flame. The fully-developed stage shows visible flame and more heat when smoke and toxic gases are produced. The final phase or decay stage occurs when all the fuel is consumed.

Citizens would also find knowledge about the stages of a fire useful. Most household fire extinguishers are meant to deal with fires in stage one, ignition where there is little flame or smoke. If smoke is developing, as in stage two, then the resident should get out because, according to the experts, the transition from stage two to stage three, or fully developed, is rapid and unpredictable. j.palmer@roswell-record.com

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS MAYWEATHER GETS 90-DAY JAIL SENTENCE

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Boxer Floyd Mayweather was sentenced Jr. Wednesday to 90 days in a Las Vegas jail after pleading guilty to a reduced battery domestic violence charge and no contest to two harassment charges.

The 34-year-old Mayweather also was ordered to complete 100 hours of community service and pay a $2,500 fine.

The plea deal avoids trial on felony allegations that the undefeated prizefighter hit his ex-girlfriend and threatened two of their children during an argument at her home in September 2010.

Prosecutor Lisa Luzaich told Justice of the Peace Melissa Saragosa that Mayweather has been in trouble before and hasn’t been punished.

“He just continually gets himself into trouble and he is able to get himself out of it as well,” she said.

“Essentially it is because he is who he is and is able to get away with everything.”

“The only thing that’s going to get this man’s attention is incarceration,” the prosecutor said.

Mayweather stood still in a striped olive vest and showed no reaction when the judge imposed the sentence and told him he must report to the Clark County jail on Jan. 6.

Mayweather’s lawyer, Karen Winckler, said she may appeal what she called an unusual sentence.

Mayweather would likely serve most of the 90-day sentence, but could serve several weeks less if he gets credit for good behavior, said Officer Bill Cassell, a Las Vegas police spokesman.

Mayweather and his manager, Leonard Ellerbe, declined comment outside the courtroom.

Not anymore. The power dynamic has changed dramatically this season, a shift that will be on full display Thursday night when new champion, Houston, meets the old one.

DEERFIELD, Ill. (AP) — Derrick Rose was going down the list, thanking just about everyone who helped him become one of the NBA’s best players, when he looked to his right.

Seated off to the side was his mother, Brenda.

“I think I can finally say this now. Mom, I finally made it,” he said.

Rose, the Chicago Bulls’ superstar point guard and the league’s reigning MVP, agreed Wednesday to a five-year contract extension worth more than $94 million that kicks in next season.

It’s fair to say Rose made it long before this latest news conference. The extension is just another stop in a rapid and steady rise from a tough neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side to a starring role with his hometown team after being taken with the No. 1 pick in the draft.

He’s gone from Rookie of the Year to All-Star to MVP in just three seasons, becoming the youngest player to win the award. That’s why the extension was more a formality than a surprise.

IRVING, Texas (AP) — With another NFC East title so close for the Dallas Cowboys, team owner Jerry Jones seems to be caught between the excitement and fear of what could happen.

The Cowboys can clinch their 18th division title since 1970 by winning their last two games. They are in that position after plenty of close games, with five of their losses coming by an average margin of four points and the biggest being six points in overtime.

But there is also that one lopsided blemish, a 34-7 loss nearly two months ago at Philadelphia, the team the Cowboys (8-6) play in their regular-season home finale Saturday.

Maybe that’s why Jones uncharacteristically expressed publicly being scared of the Eagles.

“There is obviously a thrill to dream about what can be out here, the success,” Jones said during one of his regular weekly radio appearances this week. “But I’m also,

because it is the Eagles, after the butt-kicking they gave us up in Philadelphia, I’m scared.”

Jones probably also remembers the 2008 season finale the Cowboys lost 44-6 at Philadelphia to get left out of the playoffs.

Because Jones is so often overly optimistic, maybe there is some psychological theory to his sudden seemingly pessimistic outlook.

“It’s probably not my position to explain that,” coach Jason Garrett said Wednesday.

“I know that we as coaches and players are focused on getting ready to play our best on Saturday. ... We have great respect for their team. I think everybody is excited about the challenge.”

A day earlier, Garrett just smiled when asked about Jones’ comments.

“We obviously took a tough loss to the Eagles last time, so we know this team is dangerous,” quarterback Tony Romo said.

“We have to play a great game out here to get a win. I know we’ve approached it that way. We’re excited about going and playing those guys.”

They were without defending rushing champ Arian Foster when the season began, and Sunday, they were missing defensive coordinator Wade Phillips.

In years past, those absences would have decimated Houston. This season, the Texans have already clinched the franchise’s first home playoff game, dethroned a team that won seven of the previous eight division crowns and at 10-4 is playing for a first-round bye. That’s not good enough yet.

While Sunday’s victory finally allowed the Colts (1-13) to end comparisons with the NFL’s only 0-16 team, the 2008 Detroit Lions, bigger questions loom.

tices. And now the team must decide whether to pay Manning’s $28 million bonus due in early March, allow him to become a free agent or redo the five-year, $90 million deal he signed in July.

Complicating those choices is the likelihood Indy will have the No. 1 overall draft pick, a slot expected to be used on Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck.

So Thursday night could be the final home game for Manning, Mathis, Saturday and Wayne.

“I don’t know if you can call it the end of an era,” Freeney said. “You look at the changes on any team and there’s always differences from year to year.

Sometimes what you call a cornerstone may leave a team, and that has happened in the past. But you never really know if it’s the end of an era till it’s over, you know?” and a 24-17 lead.

The teams traded field goals in the first half before Quinton Patton pulled in a 2-yard TD pass from Cameron. The play originally was ruled an incompletion, but was overturned after video review. Patton got one foot inbounds before tumbling out of the side of the end zone.

Late in the first half, TCU cor nerback Greg McCoy jumped a route, intercepted Cameron and returned it 25 yards to the Bulldogs’ 25. Four plays later, Ed Wesley ran 7 yards up the gut to tie the game at 10.

TCU had 190 yards rushing.

That would include the New York Giants (7-7) losing their game earlier Saturday against the New York Jets. But if the Giants win, Philadelphia would be eliminated from the playoffs even before kickoff at Cowboys Stadium, which could alter the dynamic of the game.

Until then though there seems to be a sense of uneasy anticipation for Jones.

“I have that kind of feeling about the respect turns into being afraid of what they can do to you if you have some breakdowns out there,” Jones said during an interview

Roswell Daily Record That capped a spectacular season in which Rose showed up for camp wondering why he couldn’t be MVP after LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh turned down Chicago to unite in Miami.

Then, he backed it up with one of the best seasons by a point guard.

He averaged 25 points, 7.7 assists and 4.1 rebounds over 81 games, the only NBA player last year to rank in the top 10 in both scoring and assists. He also became just the fifth player in history (along with Oscar Robertson, John Havlicek, Michael Jor dan and James) to post 2,000 points, 600 assists and 300 rebounds in a single season More important to Rose, he led Chicago to its best on KRLD-FM, the team’s radio flagship station. “You can put that scared in there if you want to. I think sometimes I do the best when I’m scared.”

If the Cowboys had won some of those close games, most of which they led in the fourth quarter, they might have already wrapped up a playoff spot.

Dallas led by 14 points in the season opener against the Jets before losing 27-24, and there was the 24-point lead against Detroit that evaporated into a 34-30 defeat after the Lions scored 17 points in the fourth quarter. New England got a winning touchdown with 2:31 left for a 20-16 victory.

President, Bo go Christmas shopping, get take-out pizza

President Barack Obama and his dog Bo visit with a poodle named Cinnamon as they check out at PetSmart, in Alexandria, Va., Wednesday.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — Home alone at the White House, President Barack Obama headed on an impromptu Christmas shopping trip Wednesday with first dog Bo, searching for some holiday cheer despite the latest stalemate with Congress.

The president’s wife and daughters already are on the family’s annual Hawaii vacation, leaving him behind to negotiate with Republican lawmakers to keep payroll taxes from going up in the new year.

So Obama squeezed in time after calls with congressional leaders to hit a

PetSmart and a Best Buy in this Virginia suburb before picking up pizza for lunch.

Along the way he wished Merry Christmas and happy holidays to dozens of thrilled bystanders.

At the pet store the president bought Bo a toy bone and a bag of treats, as the presidential pup played with a poodle puppy named Cinnamon.

“OK, Bo, don’t get too personal,” Obama admonished at one point as the two dogs snif fed each other in excitement.

From there Obama headed to Best Buy to

made the best of whatever came her way. Her family is very grateful to her husband Rodger Mason for the loving care he gave her throughout her illness.

Mary Lou grew up in Causey, and graduated from Causey High School in 1966. Being the oldest in a family of nine children, she helped her mother with all of her younger siblings when their father died. In 1971, she was married to Terry Boone. They made their home in the Portales area. Mary Lou was a very devoted wife and mother, and supported her family completely. She was always there when her children were involved in programs or sports, and available to her husband to help him with whatever was needed on the far m. After Mr. Boone died on Aug. 2, 1990, she decided to go to Roswell and become a registered nurse. Nursing was just an extension of who she was, and was a fulfillment of who she felt God had created her to be. She became an excellent nurse, and was known for how caring and tender she was with her patients. Families took great comfort in knowing that Mary Lou was their family member’s nurse.

Mary Lou worked as an agency nurse throughout New Mexico, and even some in Texas.

While she was still in nursing school, Mary Lou married Randy Ball. They made their home in Logan, where she learned to fish

and enjoy the water. Mary Lou became an avid fisherman, and loved being on the water catching walleye.

You could often hear the echo of her laughter coming across the lake. Mr. Ball also preceded her in death in 2005.

On Sept. 13, 2006, she was married to Rodger Mason. They continued to make their home in Logan, and she continued to travel doing her nursing until she became ill in September 2010. Shortly after marrying Mr. Mason, her grandson, Tyler Boone, moved in to make his home with them. They were instrumental in the formation of his character as he has grown to be a young man.

Mary Lou loved the Lord, and loved to sing and worship him.

She is survived by her husband, Rodger Mason, of Logan; a daughter and sonin-law Betsy and Alton Shields, of Roswell; a son and daughter -in-law Troyce Boone and Jamie Dean, of Roswell; her mother Betty Richards, of Portales; a stepson, Rodger Doyle Mason, of Logan; six grandchildren, Tara and Terrence Shields, Tyler and Taylor Boone and their mother Kelli Thurman, and Tatum Boone and Ethan Dean; three brothers, Morris Perry, of Amarillo, Eddie Perry, of Portales, and John Bruggeman, of Lubbock; and five sisters, Jeanette Hill, of Lubbock, Donna Warren, of Cisco, Texas, Doris Strong, of Portales,

Valerie Cox, of Lazbuddie, Texas, and Debbie Lewis, of Portales; as well as numerous nieces and nephews and other family members.

She was preceded in death by two husbands; her father Hiram Perry; and a stepson, Joseph Melvin Mason.

Arrangements are under the direction of Wheeler Mortuary of Portales, 575356-4455.

ALAMOGORDO — On Dec. 20, 2011, Fannie S. Perry Shannon won her battle against cancer by never allowing it to steal her zest for life. She and her husband Tim spent her last two months filled with companionship and adventure. She was born on Jan. 4, 1960, in Roswell, to Samuel and Juanita Perry.

She is survived by her best friend and husband Tim Shannon at the home they built together in La Luz. She is also survived by her son Donovan Perry

DEAR ABBY

DEAR DONALD: Since I printed that letter I have heard from readers telling me my answer didn’t go far enough. (I advised him to end the relationship.) Among those who wrote to me were doctors, members of law enforcement and mental health specialists — as well as former victims. My newspaper readers comment:

UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: On Oct. 19 you printed a letter from “Bruised and Abused,” a man who is dating a woman who becomes physically violent when they argue. I know this is a touchy subject. I have heard from authorities that about half of domestic violence occurs when a woman throws the first blow.

Most women believe, as the abusive girlfriend said, that her attack on him isn’t violence because she’s a woman and he is a man. As difficult as it may

was there for me.

If she is hitting him, he needs to call the police. If he has marks on him, SHE will go to jail. Men are too often ashamed to call the police because men think it reflects on their manhood. However, they need to put that shame aside and get the help they need.

JOE IN MISSOURI

DEAR ABBY: I’m a retired cop. “Bruised” asked you if what his girlfriend is doing is domestic abuse. Your reply did not mention that his girlfriend hitting him IS domestic abuse. It doesn’t matter if the abuser is male or female, nor the size of the victim.

“Bruised” should call the cops and report this before she goads him into a response that gets him arrested. The courts can mandate the therapy she apparently needs.

Dear Heloise: I try to remember to take my reusable cloth bags when shopping. I find I’m more likely to do so if they’re clean. I wash them periodically in cold water on the “gentle” setting, then air-dry them outside. To help me remember which of the bags are clean and which aren’t, I turn them inside out before washing them, then leave them that way until I take them to the store. I use them a few times before washing again.

When I mention to the clerks at the market that I’ve washed the bags, they are very appreciative and tell me they wish more shoppers washed their bags!
