(UPI Telephoto) F irsts70 Days i n Office Are Successful Ones for Kennedy Washington - (CQ) - After 70 days in office, President . Kennedy is doing all right -statistically speaking. ; " Here are some scores, as 01 a brief Easter recess:, . : ; ." - The President has filled more than 200 top government posts with minimum criticism of his appointees; :most of them have been confirmed by the Senate, none rejected. , v -He has laid the bulk of bis program before Congress, in a. series of 15 messages. , - Congress, in turn, has en acted three of 16 measures to: which he assigned priority; six of the remaining' 12 have been passed by, one or both houses. - ' ' By comparison, President Elsenhower got off to a slow" start in 1953, On March 31 of that year, the 1 Republican controlled 83rd Congress had approved two of 19 Presiden tial requests,, rejected one, and taken no action whatso ever on 11. Communications Lag - As Congressional Quarterly reported at the time, "cooper ation between President and Congress may have been ham pered by crossed-up 'commun ications' " between an inex perienced White House staff and a Republican majority un accustomed to responsibility. No such problem seems to have troubled President Ken nedy. .. . All is not smooth, however, as a closer look shows. The three measures enacted - a temporary program of un employment benefits, a feed grains program,' and ': U.S. membership in the Organiza tion for Economic Coopera tion and Development-emerged from Congress substantial ly as requested. But other ma jor items on the President's priority list have run into trouble. , - Minimum Wage: Asked to raise the minimum wage of $1.25 per hour and .extend coverage to 4.3 million addi tional workers, the House voted instead for $1.15 and 1.3 million new workers. The 216-203 vote was considered a- major Administration set back. . Senate Holds Back '-Aid to .Children: The President asked Congress to make children of unemployed parents eligible for aid under the regular program for de pendent children. The House did so promptly, March 10, lint no action has been sched uled by the Senate Finance committee. ' ' I School Aid: The Presl- j dent's request for , a three year, $2.3 billion program of grants for school construc tion and teachers' salaries is bogged down by the parochial school controversy. Grants to religious ' schools would be unconstitutional, says the President; if parochial schools are excluded, say Catholic leaders, they will oppose any program. : - Health Insurance: The President wants to add medi cal benefits for the elderly to the social security insurance system, but there is no evi dence that the 87th Congress is ready to approve what the 86th rejected. .' " . Other major Presidential requests haven't been assign ed to any priority, as yet. But several . of them are clearly "must" legislation and just as clearly headed for trouble. - Foreign Aid -. Congress has been asked to authorize COURT HELD o public service by tht COLLEGE of LAW tVlL'AMETTE UNIVERSITY Same Offense Nets Man Acquittal, Conviction - Bartkus was accused of rob bing a federally insured sav ings and loan association. However, the jury in the fed eral court found him not guilty. The F.B.I, then turned 'over to Illinois state officials all the evidence it had against Bartkus, and the state court convicted him of robbery. Bartkus appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, claiming that his conviction by the state court, following acquittal in federal court, was a violation of the U.S. Constitution's pro hibition against trying a man twice for the same offense. The Court Held: Conviction Affirmed. The Constitutional p r o h ib ition against "double jeopardy" would prevent the federal government from try ing a man for the same of fense after he had been pre viously acquitted by a federal court. However, where the same act violates both state and federal laws, the state may prosecute and convict even though the defendant was previously acquitted by the federal court. (Bartkus v. Illinois, 359 U.S. 121, 1959). This column of general legal principles is presented by the Willamette University College of Law. It is not to be taken as legal advice. Slight changes in the facts may change the outcome of a case. - a five-year, $7.3 billion "open- end" program of development loans, the funds to be borrow ed from the treasury rather than appropriated. Given the strong opposition in Congress both to foreign aid and to any form of "backdoor spending," the President's request faces a rough time. ' - Housing - Topping a 10 point housing proposal is a four-year, : $2.5 billion pro gram of grants and loans for urban renewal - a priority ob jective for big city Democrats, but one that is generally op posed by Southerners and Re publicans. Even the Presi dent's supporters agree that opposition is mounting. -Highways - Faced with a $12 billion gap. between in come and the cost of complet ing the 41,000-mile interstate highway system, the President wants Congress to extend the 4-cent gasoline tax and raise taxes on truckers - whose howls can be heard from every section. What Congress will do is anybody's guess. . Demos Ignored -Postal Rates - President Kennedy is expected to follow President Eisenhower in ask ing for higher postal rates to cancel an operating- deficit estimated at S850 million next year. Democrats ignored the Republican's pleas; whether they will honor a similar re quest from their own leader remains to be seen. President Kennedy is the first to acknowledge the road blocks confronting his legis lative program.- As he put it March 15, "I recognize that there are important and pow erful and well organized in terest groups in this country which oppose all of these pro grams." However impressive his first 70 days in office, it seems, the next 100 hold as much portent for defeat as for success. ' ' (Copyright 1961, Congres , sional Quarterly, Inc.)
