Norblad Disagrees On Medicare Plan; Offers Own Scheme
A 3
By YVONNE FRANKLIN
Mail Tribune
Washington Bureau
Editor't note: Thi it the
third in a series on legislation
introduced by Oregon'! con
gressional delegation.
FROM AN ADMIRER
Concord. Mass.-iUPH - The
Concord Police Department
received a 10-pound box of
chocolates in the mail Mon
day. The card on the box read
only "From an admirer."
Washington - Rep. Walter
Norblad disagrees with the
Kennedy Administration on
1U IUCUH.01 c
hill under
social secur
ity, and has
introduced his
own plan to
provide cover
age to those
over 63 who
pay no in-
All
Franklin -viuo '
persons over
65 who desire medical cover
age and who have not earned
enough to pay taxes, would
file a return with the Treas
ury Department, stating that
they want to receive a medi
cal certificate. In return a cer
tificate, worth $125 per per
son or S250 per couple, would
be sent.
They would be able to pur
chase private medical insur
ance. Norblad's office stated
that with this certificate they
could buy insurance which
would care for complete hos
pitalization, doctor's and sur
geons' bills and prescribed
drugs.
All persons would be cover
ed regardless of history of
past illness; the insurance
would be renewable every
year; there would be no
means test; and those not now
covered under social security
would be eligible.
Norblad has introduced an
other bill, HR 3196, which
would allow senior citizens to
earn up to $2400 and still re
ceive social security.
Of Benefit To Oregon
Most of the bills he has in
troduced have to do with
matters which especially af
fect the economy of Oregon.
For instance:
HR 4658, which would ex
tend the law which requires
military housing to be buill
of American lumber to in
clude all FHA insured con
struction. HR 3548, which would
amend the Jones Act to al
low shipments of American
lumber to compete with Can
adian by traveling in foreign
ships.
HJR 262, which would di
rect the State Department to
use an emergency quota on
the importation of
softwoods
A House Joint Resolution
has the same effect as a
House Resolution, the Presi
dent signs it into law; how
ever the enacting clause is
prefaced by a number of
"w h e r e a s" statements. A
House Concurrent Resolution
does no, have the force of
law, merely states the joint
opinion of both Houses.
Minor bills introduced by
Norblad are:
HConRes 95, to provide
markers on the Lewis and
Clark Trail.
HR 4364. to provide for a
duty - free spectometer for
Oregon State university.
HR 1403. to waive certain
gas tax requirements for the
Capital Transit Lines of
Salem.
HR 2038, transfer of Bat
tery Russell and Fire Control
Hill from one department to
another.
On Armed Services
A vetern of 16 years' serv
ice in the House of Repre
sentatives, Norblad sits on
the Armed Services Commit
tee, and he and his colleagues
let Chairman Carl Vinson of
Georgia, in Congress since
1914, introduce all military
bills. This is the chairman's
prerogative and woe betide
the Member who poaches on
a southern chairman's pre
rogative. In an interview with Nor
blad to discuss his legislation,
he expressed concern over the
stress that Secretary of De
fense Robert McNamara is
putting on missiles to the det
riment of conventional wea
pons. He said that at present about the local brush fires ... the federal expenditures and

"What are we going to do Norblad is concerned about strongly that Europe should
bear a heavier burden for its
own defense, and that Ameri
can servicemen and their
families should be brought
home.
