Speakers view foreign economy By Marilou Genereaux "Economists share Mrs. Thatcher's goals but they criticize the way she goes about it," said Angus Mackay, Public Affairs Of· ficer from the British Consulate General in Los Angeles. Mackay expressed his views on the Conservative government of Margaret Thatcher to Warren Hawley's Comparative European Government class February 22. Guy S. Broc, Cultural Attache from the Consulate General of France in Los Angeles addressed the class February 29 on France's "con· servative approach" in economics. Commented Mackay, "Margaret Thatcher believes economics in Britain are dictated too much by people with thoughts of Keynesian economics where the government tinkers with the economy and intervenes with industry and people's welfare. She believes the people ought to look to the supply side of economy and produce more, thereby bettering the economy." In order to restore incentives for the people to increase productivity "she has reduced the percentage of tax on earned and unearned income." To reduce inflation "she is reducing the rate of growth of the money supply. To keep the government from having to borrow money which raises inflation, some public services have been cut back as in areas of health care, care for the elderly, school costs, and in the frequency of refuse collection." Both Mackay and Broc stated that their governments are emphasizing less control over industry and more competitiveness in business. "I ndustry is feeling the effects of Conservative policies as Britain

"Change cannot come about overnight," stressed Broc. "When the price guidelines for bread were removed the price increased overnight by 30 to 40 percent." The liberal French government is not cutting back on public benefits although it sees increasing social benefit leading to a lack of incentive."

seeks to get out of the Public Sector economy by selling off the government's interest in businesses such as the British airlines," said Mackay. "France's economy, although basically capitalistic, has been subsidized by the government causing less concern about profits," said Broc. Long range policy involves "a sane structure to remove wage and price guidelines, a nd increase conpetitiveness by coming back to a free market position ."
Broc stated, "Since the Constitution of 1958 France has h ad a stable government. The Constitution is a clear one which gives the executive branch power. The president directs the government and handles the big problems; the Prime Minister is the majority leader ofthe Assembly." A check and balance system a llows the minister "a vote of censure in regard to the Prime Minister and to express to the President their displeasure." Both speakers shared their countries view of Carter's boycott of the Summer Olympics. Mackay said Britain supports the boycott. Broc thought that France has a cynical view and believes neither the six month economic sanction against Russia nor the Olympic boycott will be of any benefit.
