5A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • THURSDAY, APRIL 21, 2016 Back of the bill for Jackson, as Tubman moves up Hamilton stays on $10 bill By MARTIN CRUTSINGER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON — U.S. paper money is getting a his- toric makeover. Harriet Tubman, an Afri- can-American abolitionist born into slavery, will be the new face on the $20 bill. The leader of the Under- ground Railroad is replacing the portrait of Andrew Jack- son, the nation’s seventh pres- ident and a slave owner, who is being pushed to the back of the bill. And Alexander Hamil- ton, the nation’s first Treasury secretary who’s enjoying a revival thanks to a hit Broad- way play, will keep his spot on the $10 note after earlier talk of his removal. The changes are part of a currency redesign announced Wednesday by Treasury Sec- retary Jacob Lew, with the new $20 marking two his- toric milestones: Tubman will become the first Afri- can-American on U.S. paper money and the first woman to be depicted on currency in 100 years. “This gesture sends a pow- Photo illustration courtesy of Women on 20s Harriet Tubman will replace Andrew Jackson on the front of the $20 bill. erful message, because of the tendency in American history, the background of exclud- ing women and marginalizing them as national symbols,” said Riche Richardson, asso- ciate professor in the Afri- cana Studies and Research Center at Cornell University. “So even the symbolic sig- nificance of this cannot be overstated.” Lew also settled a back- lash that had erupted after he had announced an initial plan to remove Hamilton from the $10 bill in order to honor a woman on the bill. Instead, the Treasury building on the back of the bill will be changed to commemorate a 1913 march that ended on the steps of the building. It will also feature suffragette lead- ers Lucretia Mott, Sojourner Truth, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Alice Paul. The back of the $20, which now shows the White House, will be redesigned to include the White House and Jackson, whose statute stands across the street in Lafayette Park. The $5 bill will also undergo change: The illus- tration of the Lincoln Memo- rial on the back will be rede- signed to honor “events at the Lincoln Memorial that helped to shape our history and our democracy.” The new image on the $5 bill will include civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., who gave his famous “I have a dream” speech on the steps of the memorial in 1963, and Marian Ander- son and Eleanor Roosevelt. Anderson, an African-Amer- ican opera singer, gave a con- cert at the memorial in 1939 after she had been blocked from singing at the then-seg- regated Constitution Hall. The Lincoln Memorial con- cert was arranged by Mrs. Roosevelt. An online group, Women on 20s, said it was encouraged that Lew was responding to its campaign to replace Jack- son with a woman. But it said it wouldn’t be satisfied unless Lew committed to issuing the new $20 bill at the same time that the redesigned $10 bill is scheduled to be issued in 2020. Rates: Proposed budget contains several significant one-time expenses Continued from Page 1A City Manager Brett Estes said the city has to prepare for anticipated rate increases for public-worker pensions in 2017, as well as higher costs related to mandatory sick leave benefits and minimum wage increases. “We’re not struggling to be able to have a good healthy reserve,” Estes said. “At the same time, we want to make sure that we’re providing the services that are needed and that we’re not bankrolling money unnecessarily.” The proposed budget con- tains several significant one- time expenses, calls for set- ting aside funds for a new library project, and makes greater use of hotel-room tax money for tourist-related needs downtown and at parks. The city would direct $280,000 for a new roof for the aging library at 10th and at Tapiola Park and enue from parking meant for everyone. committee along with the City violations would Evergreen Park.
