Education Comittee Approves Bill
To increase Basic School Support
Salem - (UPI) - Tossing out
Gov. Mark Hatfield's recom
mendation, the House Educa
tion Committee late Wednes
day unanimously approved a
bill which would raise basic
school support to $125 per
census child. That is twice
the increase Hatfield propos
ed. It would hike the state's
share of local school costs to
40 per cent In 1961-62 with;
1962-63 contributions at 38
per cent.' The present state
share Is 36 per cent.
The committee amended
Hatfield's bill, HB1106, and

(MARKET
sent It to the Ways and Means
Committee.
At present the state con
tributes $106 per census child,
or $107.6 million a biennlum.
The committee's $20 Increase
would add another $22 mil
lion. Chairman Tom Monaghan
said he believes the governor
has enough in his budget to
take care of it. He said Hat
field has underestimated the
budget by many millions.
Safely Belts Urged
Rep. Ross Morgan (D-Gres-ham)
announced he Is intro
ducing a bill to make safety
seat belts mandatory on all
new cars sold In Oregon.
Half of all car fatalities in
the nation last year could
have been prevented with
such belts, he said.
The Senate State and Fed
eral Affairs committee ap
proved bills moving the secre
tary of state and state treas
urer out of the Capitol Build
ing to make more room for
the legislature, and the three
block cutback in the capltol
mail..
Secretary of State Howell
Appling Jr. said he would be
"glad to move to a quonsct
hut" if it would cut costs of
government.
But he warned that cost of
moving his office to another
building would probably be
at least $500,000 and the legis
lature should look into this
carefully.
The House Public Health
and Welfare Committee voted
two bills out "do pass." One
would liberalize the state rel
ative responsibility act and
the other would allocate $75,
000 to nelp get welfare recip
ients back to work. The latter
went to Ways and Means.

AEC Plans Study of
Underground Tests
Washington, (Science Scrv-ice)-The
Atomic Energy com
mission Is considering a pro
gram of studies on the earth
shock effects of possible un
derground nuclear detona
tions. The studies would be par
ticularly useful in determin
ing the risks involved in the
proposed Plowshare Program
of atomic detonations for
peaceful uses. No nuclear de
toiiiitlon vet has been an
proved for Plowshare, which
has been highly publicized by
AEC as a positive reason for
continued nuclear testing, at
least underground.
Apart from military impli
cations, the AEC has pointed
out that the ability to achieve
controlled underground ex
plosions could have valuable
peaceful uses in the building
of dams, canals and other
similar major construction.

Kennedy Proposes Construction of
1 00,000 Low-Rent Units in Big Program
Washington -IUPD- President
Kennedy today sent Congress
a housing program proposing
that the government subsidize
construction of 100,000 low
rent units as part of a major
attack on crime-infested city
slums.
In a move to aid moderate
Income families, he suggested
a temporary and experimental
use of no-down-payment mort
gages which would be avail
able to any person who want
ed to buy a home costing up
to about $13,500.
"A nation that is partly ill
housed is not as strong as a
nation with adequate homes
for every family," the Presi
dent said. "A nation with
ugly, crime-infested cities and
haphazard suburbs does not
present the same image to the
world as a nation character
ized by bright and orderly
urban development."
He called for government
backed low-rent housing units
because "government housing
subsidies are required for
families with very low in
comes. Public housing is the
only housing they can afford;
yet public housing is too often
unavailable."
In a special message Ken
nedy told Congress it must
redeem the pledge of the 1949
Housing Act of "a decent
home and suitable living en
vironment for every Ameri
can family."
To achieve this goal, the
President proposed expansion
of present federal housing ef
forts and several news uses of
federal mortgage insurance.
By 1970, he said, construc
tion of two million new hous
es and apartments a year will
be necessary merely to keep
up with population growth.
The nation will be stronger
as it is better housed, Ken
nedy declared, and it will pre
sent a better image to the
world as it eradicates "ugly,
crime-infested cities and hap
hazard suburbs." He estimated
14"million American families
"live in substandard or de
teriorating homes.'.'
Kennedy put -no over -all
price tag on the array of pro
posals he sent Congress. It
appeared they would cost per
haps $3 billion over a period
of years.
Citing the 18 per cent drop
in home building last year,
Kennedy said "there is no
longer an enormous backlog
of economic demand which
can be released simply by
providing ample credit."
"Credit devices must now
be used selectively,"' he said,
to stimulate home building for
moderate and low income

families. He said it is these
families who offer the largest
and most immediate potential
housing market.
Kennedy said he would
"shortly offer" to Congress a
proposal for creation of a
Cabinet-rank Department, of
Housing and Urban Affairs.
The Housing and Home Fi
nance agency is headed now
by Robert C. Weaver, whose
sub-Cabinet rank is the high
est ever held by a Negro.
The President made no men
tion of the executive order he
has promised to issue banning
racial discrimination in all
federally aided housing. The
administration plans to delay
issuing it until after Congress
acts on housing legislation.
Kennedy made these pro
posals: For moderate income fami
lies: Temporary, experimental
use of no-down payment, 40
year insured mortgages avail
able to any family for pur
chase of a home costing up to
about $13,500. These loans,
made by private lenders and
insured by the Federal Hous
ing administration, now are
available only to families dis
placed by public 'projects.
Low - interest government
loans for construction of
rental and cooperative hous
ing. Officials are thinking
about askir tt Congress for
$500 million for these loans.
They would be made to local
housing authorities, coopera
tives, nonprofit associations
and limited - profit corporations.
For low income families:
Action by Congress to permit
the Public Housing adminis
tration to subsidize construc
tion of 100,000 low-rent hous
ing units. "Unless we increase
the supply of low-rent hous
ing, our communities cannot
rid themselves of slums," Ken
nedy said.
For elderly persons: Dou
bling the present authoriza
tion of $50 million for direct
loans to non-profit groups for
construction of housing for
older persons.
Reserving 50,000 units of
low-rent public housing "spe
cifically for low-income elder
ly persons and families" and
an increase of $(0 a month in
the subsidy on apartments oc
cupied by elderly persons,
thereby lowering the rent
they pay.
