1983Year For those who labor under the naive notion that Christmas occurs only in December, I suggest a visit to the next meeting of the state's Job Incentive Board in Albany. The board is scheduled to go out of business at midnight on June 30, and it wants to give away all the gifts it can before that funeral knell sounds. The reason the board is being abolished is that the Legislature and the Governor agreed that it was a wasteful, poorly targeted program that frequently awarded tax credits - which are tax losses to the state treasury - to blue-chip businesses that didn't need them but sought and got them anyway to add to their already healthy profits. You couldn't blame the businesses for trying to enrich their owners or stockholders, but that's not what the state's economic development policy is supposed to be all about. SANTA CLAUS IN JUNE

1969Year Some years ago I interviewed Richard B. Russell of Georgia, then and now the senior United States Senator, about one of his colleagues, Russell Long of Louisiana, who had just been elected assistant Democratic leader. Senator Russell, at one point, spoke of Russell Long's father, with whom the Georgian had served as a fellow Southern Governor and then in the Senate more than a quarter-century before. Huey Long
