Newspaper Page Text10 - A- TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1961 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE. Ullman Expects OK For Bill To Assist Destitute Children IT i By YVONNE FRANKLIN ' Mail Tribun Waihington Bureau Washington (Special) Rep Al Ullman ; believes chances are "excellent" that his com mittee, Ways vt and Means, K. - will nasi for House action by April 1 a change in the Aid to De. pendent Chil dren law to provide mon ey t o r c h 1 1- Frankiln dren whose fathers are unemployed. ' "As drawn, the bill calls for spending $305 million nation wide for a 15-month period. Oregon's share is an estimat ed $2,633,000. This would allow ' approximately 8,000 more persons in Oregon to become eligible for benefits. .As the law how stands, the federal and state governments contribute money to needy , children whose fathers are dead, are in prison, in a hos pital or otherwise physically handicapped, or who have de serted the family. As a result, Lenten Message ! . Br . THE REV. i ! H. JOHN MURCHIE Pastor, First Baptist Church Woodburn, Mais. (Written for UPI) ; What man must face in life and what he wills to accept involve two different forces of his being. When Jesus de cided to spend the final days of His life in Jerusalem, He did It with the awareness that all the hostile spirits operat Jng within man would have to be encountered. This de cision, was not forced upon Him; He went out to meet it as an opportunity in which He might make the God and Father of His people known to them. Jesus knew that to accept lllo as we, find it is to frus trate lito as it is meant to be Ho "set His face to go to Je rusalem" because He knew that the forces of evil must be met by the friendship of Cod. Evil is not to be destroy. ed. Evil is to be transformed Man is called of God to make something out of life. ; It is our Father's will to give us the kingdom. We do not have to bring it in, We are asked to act and live within the. will and ways of the king dom. It is a most precarious gift. We must go through the city of entrenched evil forces. The cross is inescapable, It Is in such conditions that life becomes really redemp tive. Men. struggle 'against God and good when they have lost the' image of the Father, who gives life, love and meaning to their existence. Jesus said: "For this cause came I into the world." And again: "The Father is with Me." His cause was not so much a matter -of death as It was the revelation of life. The world is hot transformed by our dying, but by our will ingness to live. By the new life which is brought into be ing when God lives in the human soul. The saviors of the world accept life as they find it, but they always leave a new sense of God the Father in the hearts of those who learn to love them. according to Ullman, desti tute children living with two able-bodied unemployed par ents are penalized. "Under existing law," said Ullman, "we are actually en couraging the fathers to leave home so that their children can become eligible for de pendent aid. This problem is highlighted during times of extended unemployment such as we are going through now. Said Sound Policy "It seems to me that it is not only in the interests of justice but it is sound admin istration policy that we should recognize unemploy ment as one of the reasons that children are suffering and in need under the act. If a father runs out of unemployment insurance, he apples to welfare for assist ance. But a lot of men just will not apply; they will leave home first. The public assist ance laws are so variable around the country and so stringent and funds are so short that the chances of get ting public assistance are being narrowed more and more every day," he con tinued. There are 6,092 families, In volving 16,672 children, now participating in the Oregon program. The Department of Health, Education and Wel fare reports that for Novem ber, I960, the average pay ment per Oregon family was $145.99 (the average per per son is $40.60). If the bill be comes law. the local depart ments of public welfare would handle the applications for assistance. The January unemploy ment figures for Oregon showed that 65,300 people were unemployed out of a to tal labor force of 700,300. Of these, the Labor department estimated that approximately 390,000 are covered by some form of unemployment compensation. Boadening of the aid to de pendent children program to Include children of employ able fathers is only tempor ary, extending to June 30, 1962. Ullman feels that it should be permanent. He was the first member of Congress to propose such extension of the law - during the 1956 re cession year.' , , . Wants Permanent Chang "I favor a permanent ex tension of the law to cover this feature, and would ex pect that the Administration will later present to the Con gress a proposal for a per manent change," he said. Ullman also feels that the bill helps to meet an ever growing need. We cannot allow the chil dren to suffer who are de pendents of people not able to work and who have gone be yond their unemployment benefits. This is the whole in tent of the law. We should hold families together rather than encouraging, In the law itself, ' the breaking up of families,", he said. ' Ullman feels that Oregon has a better than average rec ord on aid to the unemployed, considering the nation as a whole. For the week ending Feb. 4, 1961, the Labor de partment lists 44,105 people In Oregon drawing un employment compensation, which is up 12,923 from a year ago. The first lighthouse on the American coast was built at Beaver Tall off Jamestown, R. I., in the middle of the 18th century. EVEN IF YOU'VE NEVER DANCED BEFORE..'.
