    Congress to Support JFK's
Reserve Call-Up Authority
Washington - (UPD - Con
gress has indicated that it
would -go along with Presi
dent Kennedy' request for
reserve call-up authority but
minus any enthusiasm.
Administration leaders in
the House and Senate prom
ised their full cooperation.
Many Republican congress
men, however, were of a dif
ferent mind. They pointed to
last year's mobilization dur
ing the Berlin crisis and the
subsequent criticism of the
way that call-up was implemented.
Nevertheless, there was lit'
tie doubt that Congress would
grant Kennedy's request for
authority to:
-Extend for one year the
enlistments and periods of
service of any member of the
armed services or National
Cuard whose tour of duty
would expire before next
Feb. 28, 1963.
Asks Prompt Action
Kennedy said the authority
he sought was necessary "to
permit prompt and effective
responses, as necessary, to
challenges which may be pre-

M.dford, 801 N. Rivarside-Grants Pass, 529 S.E. 6th
sented in any part of the free
world." He urged Congress to
act as promptly as it did in
the last Berlin crisis.
The request came as con
cern grew over two trouble
spots Berlin and Cuba. In
Berlin, Russia has so far re
fused to engage in Four
Power talks on violence over
the Berlin wall.
And in Cuba, a buildup of
Soviet arms caused Kennedy
to issue a statement last Tues
day in which he warned both
countries that the United
States would not tolerate any
aggressive acts in the Western
Hemisphere.
Not Immediate
Senate Democratic Leader
Mike Mansfield, Mont., em
phasized that the President
had no intention of calling
up any reserves immediately.
Mansfield, who along with
Republican leaders was
briefed on the plan Tuesday,
said Kennedy wanted the
standby authority to cover
Congress' adjournment per
iod. The House and Senate are
expected to adjourn in a few
weeks and return in January
to begin organizing the new
Congress.
Under the proposed bill
sent to Congress, no member
of the "ready" or paid re
serves who was involuntarily
called to duty during the Ber
lin crisis would be called in
voluntairly now. Reservists
called up in the 1961 crisis
were released less than a
month ago.
On Drill Pay
Additionally, the Defense
Department hopes to confine
any new call essentially to
reserves who are on drill pay
status. Many of the bitterest
complaints last year came
from among the 38,000 indi
vidual Army reservists who
were called to fill in gaps in
callcd-up units. They had not
been receiving drill pay and
objected to the fact that they
had to leave their Jobs and
homes while many men on a
I pay status remained civilians.

Group Recommends Sharp Look
At Aid to Dependents Program
State Finance Director Free
man Holmer has announced
the state surplus at the end
of June, 1963, is expected to
be $590,427. The legislature
had expected a $1.6 million
surplus when it prepared the
budget.
Holmer appeared before the
Legislative Fiscal committee.
The committee also heard
a report that state income tax
collections will be more than
$16 million below what was
estimated when the budget
was prepared despite August
tax collections 19 9 per cent
above those of a year ago.
Tax Commission Chairman
Charles Mack told the com
mittee the combined July and
August collections were $20.$
million 9.4 per cent above
year ago.
Light Month
September normally is a
light month for collections
and Mack expects that at the
end of the first three-month
quarter of this fiscal year the
tax collection increase will
be about 10 per cent.
While tax collections for
the biennium-are below esti
mates, other "revenue sources
are bringing in more than an
ticipated.
Gift and inheritance taxes
are bringing in $6.5 million
more and liquor sales and li
cense will account for an ex
tra $3.6 million.
And the state will be spend
ing about $6.5 million less
than authorized under the
budget.

Salem - (UPD - The Legislat
ive Fiscal Committee Satur
day recommended that the
1963 legislature take a sharp
look at Oregon's federally-assisted
program of aid to de
pendent children with unem
ployed parents.
The committee didn't rec
ommend the 1961 statute be
dropped, but said it wanted
the matter to come before the
next legislature for further
study.
However, Rep. Victor
Atiyeh R-Portland) said he
would introduce a bill to
eliminate the measure.
The unemployment provis
ion in the ADC program al
lows the state to qualify for
$20.81 in federal funds per
dependent if the father is not
working.
Adopted Measure
Opposition to the program
stems from the possibility
that Oregon may draw ADC
recipients from other states
not having the unemployment
provision. Washington is tne
only other western state that
has it, and only 15 states in
the country adopted the measure.
Some members of the com
mittee also felt that the pro
gram encourages recipients
not to seek work, since pay
ments are higher than other
forms of welfare.
Could Be Costly
The welfare commission es
timates that elimination of
the program could cost the
state about $600,000 extra in
the next biennium, for those
now receiving ADC-UN as
sistance would go on general
assistance rolls paid out of
state and county funds.
The ADC caseload resulting
from the unemployment pro
vision averaged 2,440 persons
for the first six months of
1962 and peaked at 4,839 in
April.
State Welfare Administrat
or Andrew F. Juras told the
committee that his staff is
now splitting aul-uh pay
ments to many families.
He said part of the aid
money is paid a family at the
first of a month. If the father
does not find work by the
15th of the month, the rest
is paid.
This way, he said, an unem
ployed father is given incen
tive to find work. If he finds
work, Juras said, the rest of
the month's payment isn't
made, saving money for other
cases.
He said the split payment
plan would be extended to
other forms of assistance ad
ministered by his department.
The fiscal committee rec
ommended that a sliding scale
of allowed income by ADC
UN recipients be adopted. At
present a parent is consid
ered unemployed ii ne cams
less than $143 a month.
The committee staff said
the fixed income figure may
encourage some on aid not to
seek employment.
