By JACK BELL AP Political Reporter WASHINGTON (AP) - History may tie the tag of "the welfare Congress" on the 87th meeting of the nation s lawmakers' if Presi dent-elect John F. Kennedy gets his way. In advance ot lis actual sub mission after his inauguration, Kennedy's legislative program is taking shape as one aimed at bet tering the economic and social status of millions of Americans. While he hasn't laid down any specific priorities, Kennedy has said he wants speedy action on measures to provide medical care for the aged, aid for education, housing, minimum wage and aid for chronically depressed areas. The president-elect has talked of casing interest rates, revising the labor laws, spurring economic development, and expanding na tional resources projects. In the controversial field of civ il rights he is tied to a platform declaration for congressional passage of a measure to clothe the attorney general-to-be, his brother Robert, with authority to bring federal injunction suits to enforce school desegregation.' This and some other proposals face tough and possibly success ful opposition ' in a Congress the Democrats nominally control but where a coalition of conservatives of both parties has a great deal to say about the final form of legislation. Outside of Congress, Kennedy has promised executive action to improve the condition of certain segments of the population. He said repeatedly in the pres idential campaign there was much a president could do by the stroke of a pen, such as ending segre gation in federal housing pro grams, furnishing moral leader ship and calling a conference of Southern moderates to rccom mend measures for civil rights progress. The Kennedy program for aid to education has not taken final form. He supported a bill passed by the Senate in the 86th Congress for a two-year $1.86-billion pro gram for school construction and grants for teachers' salaries. The House passed a four-year program authorizing $1.3 billion for construction only. The two; houses couldn't agree and the bill died. Whether Kennedy is any more successful as president than as a senator in promoting a teachers' pay measure remains to be seen. The new president will have a fight on hie hands in proposing a medical care program for the aged, financed through Social Se curity taxes. Sen. Robert S. Kerr, D-Okla., already has served no tice he will oppose a tax-financed proposal as a substitute for the state-federal program passed by the last Congress. Republicans are lining up their forces to battle an expected Ken nedy recommendation for an in crease in the minimum wage to $1 25 an hour, with an expansion of covcrace to another five mil lion persons, mostly In the retail trades. Republicans can be expected to contend that a minimum wage boost now may only increase un employment. They are not alone in their opposition. For example, Sen. Fulbrisht. D-Ark., takes a, similar position. Kennedy's bill to help depressed areas may carry around $400 mil lion in federal grants and loans to encourage new industries in areas of chronic unemployment. It probably will call for retrain ing of miners, railroad workers and others who have lost their jobs permanently. Kennedy is expected to back a housing bill geared to spurring this lagging industry with lower interest rates and easier terms for credit purchases. In the past SAME OLD CHARGE LOS ANGELES (UPD-Scaman Emery Ncwbern, who lias battled on his own behalf against more than 200 drunk arrests, failed to show up Monday to argue his drunk appeal case at the open ing of the State Supreme Court. Reason he was in ail in San Francisco on the same old charge. he has supported urban renewal programs. There is some doubt on the course the new president may take in the complex field of labor law reforms. The platform on which he was elected pledges the new president to seek repeal of the Taft-Hartley law provision which authorizes states to pass right-to-work laws. But it seems questionable to most observers that this will get. a high priority if any In the rush to legislation providing broader welfare benefits. These benefits could include a new department of urban affairs, to handle mounting problems of city dwellers, as well as some kind of central agency pointed at giving consumers a break. These two projects still are In the speculative stage, however. Most associates think Kcnnedv will wait until he gets the feel of the presidency and plumbs the economic situation thoroughly be fore making any such proposals. All Work Guaranteed To Satisfy!
