It is to be spelled out in a special message to Congress late this month or early In February. , The sources said there has been general agreement on what the program will entail.

Po lice said the small scratch was self-inflicted and that she had been under strain preparing for final exami nations. She had concoct ed the story Friday in her parent's home in Topeka. year beginning July 1. The budget also requested au thorization to enter into spend ing commitments of up to $1, 215.000,000 during the year. This request, it was learned Friday, was made to provide the foundation for a program run ning five times, or more, that amount. Programs involving construc tion do not require big outlays at the beginning. Costs rise as the blueprints are drawn and construction starts. A welfare department spokes. man said the $144 million in spending recommended for next year is part of "a process lead ing into two, three, four or five years of substantial expenditures." He said the program will con tain provisions for aid to public schools for classroom construc tion and teachers' salaries. He declined to elaborate. For IS years or more, the White House has been recom mending federal aid to educa tion, but Congress never has enacted any general aid pro gram. Prospects for this year are not considered bright, partly because of differences over whether aid should be given to church and private schools, Battleground in Congress Army-AF Dispute Simmers WASHINGTON Wl Con gress may become the decisive battleground in a dispute be tween the Army and the Air Force over the Army's ambi tions for a much stronger air arm of its own. The dispute so far has been waged away from public view, at high levels in the Pentagon. The Army won the first major round, as was shown last week when President Kennedy rec ommended money to buy 1,600 more planes and helicopters for the Army. But the Air Force has many friends in Congress. These friends are certain to give Air Bamett Raps Justice Suit JACKSON, Miss. Of) Gov. Ross Barnett said Saturday he would cooperate to the fullest extent with Biloxl and Gulfport school officials to defeat a Jus tice Department suit seeking de segregation of public schools lo cated on military bases. Barnett said the action by the Justice Department was "addi tional evidence of a determina tion to make a 'Congo jungle' of every school and schoolroom in the nation." The Justice Department filed suit Friday seeking desegrega tion in schools located near so- called federally impacted areas. The suit seeks action in Madi son and Mobile counties in Ala bama, Bossier Parish (county) in Louisiana and in Harrison County in Mississippi. The main allegations of the Justice Department suits were that the schools, now alleged to be discriminatory, were con structed, either wholly or partly, by federal funds. "I deplore the effort in this suit to further disrupt the edu cation of our children," Barnett said. "We will resist this hap pening to the schools and school children of Mississippi, both white and colored, with every resource at our command. Force spokesmen a chance to state their opposition before the Armed Services and Appropria tions committees. Congress backed the Air Force last session in voting funds to push development of t h e 2,000-mile-an-hour RS70 bomber on a big scale. But Sec retary of Defense Robert S. Mc Namara had the last word when he refused to spend the great bulk of the additional $101 mil lion Congress appropriated for the project. In the case of the airpowcr dispute, the situation is differ ent. Congress could delay or block the Army's plans by deny ing or cutting the money needed to carry them out Of course, the Army could win the battle with persuasive arguments and the indicated strong backing of McNamara, who set up the Army board which recommended far-reaching improvements in the Army's air mobility. The Army feels it necessary to use its own planes to move its troops and gear within a combat zone, to conduct short range reconnaissance, and to provide close fire support for its combat units.
