FRIDAY, 15 JANUARY 1965 Johnson Submits, Seeks Record Lo THE MiCHif- AN n iiv. TUI x meU A T l IW- -* ..' -. . - .RAi IiE g Foreign Aid Bill; w Appropriation, Integration Gains in Tuskegee WASHINGTON (P) - President Lyndon B. Johnson asked Con- gress yesterday for $3.38 billion for foreign aid next year, the low-; est such administration request since the United States program began after World War II. In stressing economies along with the need for economic-mili-' tary assistance to "those who would be free abroad," Johnson hopes to get congressional ap- proval without the deep money cuts imposed by the lawmakers in some past years. Governor's Talk Urges Tax Reform (Continued from Page 1) continuing obligation to the peo-' ple to be efficient." He said that the Task Force on Expenditure Management which he appointed two years ago, has already come sup with recommendationsrthat have saved the state nearly $3 millicn, and that it will be reor- ganized and expanded to take on the additional duties of reviewing all present state services. "County home rule standards should be established on a flexi- ble, optional basis to permit more efficient and economical govern- ment," Romney said. "We must have county home rule by the end of this legislative session, he! shouted. Challenge to Education In noting that "education is the most basic public service respon- sibility of state and local govern- ments," Romney said "the need to prepare citizens of all ages for productive employment and en- riched lives has placed new chal- lenges before our educational sys- tems." These can be met, he maintain- ed, by "an improved school aid formula that will provide every child with equal educational op- portunity regardless of school dis- trict property tax base." He also emphasized the need for addi- tional vocational education facili- ties. Romney declared that Michigan has the best anti-poverty program of any state, mainly due tp "in- creased jobs and reduced unem- ployment, improved educational and training programs, increased welfare benefits and positive civil rights action." He also observed that the state is "making full use of the new federal Economic Op- portunity Act." However, in a special 3500- word message, the President left the way open for further money requests later this year "if situ- ations should arise which require additional amounts" of U.S. as- stance to advance vital U.S. inter- ests. South Viet Nam Specifically, in earmarking more than $500 million for South Viet! a Nam and Laos in the fiscal year starting July 1, Johnson asked for an open-ended military-economic authorization for Vietnamese aid. This would allow him to go to Congress directly for additional appropriations for the antiguer- rilla campaign without first get- ting authorizing legislation. A protest against the open-end authority for extra military aid in South Viet Nam came from Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore), a vig- orous foe of both the aid program and of U.S. !involvement in Viet Nam. "Obviously this is a proposal for funds to make war in South Viet Nam in a war that has not been declared under ourConstitution," Morse said. "I'm sure the Presi- dent will hear from millions of American people in opposition' to this indefensible foreign aid pro- gram." Sen. Jack Miller (R-Iowa) also predicted trouble for the standby authorization request.

Last year Johnson sought $3.5 billion and got $3.25 billion, a comparatively modest re- duction. Congressional critics of foreign aid informed Johnson that they consider his new foreign aid re- quest too big and will try to bar help to countries unfriendly to America. Rep. Otto Passman (D-La), the most persistent and effective trim- mer of foreign aid funds, didn't issue any sweeping criticism of the President's proposals, as he has done frequently in the past. Instead, the chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommit- tee which shapes the fund provi- sions, said the program "cannot be evaluated until we can ascer- tain whether or not there will be a request for more money for the International Development Asso- ciation and similar agencies. .. Wait-and-See Sen. J. W. Fulbright (D-Ark), the Senate foreign relations chairman who has guided many aid bills to enactment, also took a wait-and-see attitude. Fulbright recently disclosed his disillusion- ment with some phases of the pro- gram and said he could not take the lead in passing another bill unless several objections are met. Yesterday Fulbright said he'd have to wait until Johnson spells out the details before he can de- cide his course. The senator ex- pressed pleasure that the over-all request is the lowest yet, but he said he still wants the military and economic programs handled sep- arately and added: "It is also important to know whether there will be greater shift of emphasis from bilateral to mul- tilateral aid in which other indus- trial nations will take over a greater share of the burden." Open Questions Johnson put off decisions on some questions being raised by congressional critics. One is whether to continue U.S. aid to Egypt and Indonesia, whose presidents have scorned American assistance. Another is the form of the leg- islation to be presented to Con- , gress. Some lawmakers want the program split into different bills, including a separation of military and economic aid, while others are insisting on a single package. Selective Program Yesterday's message described the new "minimum" program as selective, emphasizing self-help by the aid-receiving countries. This is looking towards ending U.S. as- sistance in the future, a rising role for private enterprise, larger aid contributions by other coun- tries and greater efficiency in han- dling the program. Highlights of the new program include: -A $115-million rise in military aid because of the pressure in SoutheasteAsia. Administration sources said the $500 million in military and economic supporting assistance planned for Viet Nam and Laos is a slight increase over the present rate. -Latin America's Alliance for Progress program will get $580 million, an increase of $17 million. -Nationalist China which has received nearly $5 billion in U.S. military-economic assistance since the war will be eliminated from U.S. economic relief in fiscal 1966. U.S. arms assistance to the Chiang Kai-shek regime will continue. o rld News Roundup By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-Rep. Albert W. Watson (R-SC) yesterday sub- mitted his resignation from Con- gress. Watson switched this week from Democrat to Republican because House Democrats took away his committee seniority for having supported the Republican presi- dential nominee, Bari'y Goldwater, in November. LONDON-Ten thousand air- plane factory workers yesterday converged on the British capitalI to urge the Labor government to1 call off a cutback in aircraft o. ders which would cause widespread unemployment in the industry, JAKARTA, Indonesia - Presi- dent Sukarno suggested yesterday that an African-Asian group or the United Nations investigate whether the provinces of Sarawak and Sabah want to remain in Ma- laysia. He promised to abide by the decision. It was the second conciliatory statement by Sukarnosin three days. On Wednesday he said in an interview that Indonesia did not plan to attack anyone but would resist if attacked. EDITOR'S NOTE: Last year the University instituted 'a general ex- change program with the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. The follow- ing story describes efforts toward integration taking place in Tuske- gee. TUSKEGEE, Ala. (A) - Once- troubled Tuskegee has witnessed signs of progress in racial har- mony in the three months since two Negroes took office on the city council. Next Tuesday, the bi-racial gov- ernmental trend which developed' after Negroes gained a voting ma-I jority will stretch throughout Ma- con County when four other Ne- groes will be sworn in as county officials. Already, the presence of a Ne- gro minister and a Tuskegee In- stitute professor on the city coun- cil has broken through the bar- riers' which once kept Negroes out of city jobs. Hire Negroes Two Negroes have been hired on the 14-man police force. Another has been added to the housing au- thority and three others to the city planning board. "Everything seems to be moving along peacefully," said the Rev. K. L. Buford, one of the Negro coun- oilmen. "There is a wholesome at- titude on the council. We couldn't want for better cooperation, and we have received few complaints. from the people in the city." One note of uncertainty simmers in the county courthouse. Sheriff Preston Hornsby, who gained the respect of Negro voters by ap- pointing a Negro deputy, is giving up that office next Tuesday to be- come probate judge. New Sheriff A new sheriff will be appoint- ed by Gov. George Wallace, and some Negro leaders are worried that he might follow the gover- nor's hard-core segregationist line. "We hope it will be someone who is not too far different from the one we've had," said Prof. C. 0. Gomillion of Tuskegee Insti- tute, who takes office next week as a member of the county school board. Gomillion, a pioneer in civil rights efforts which led ultimate-' ly to a federal court order against discrimination in voter registra- tion, says he will take his place on the county school board with a wait-and-see approach. "I want to get on the board and begin to ask questions and then make recommendations," he said. Racial Strife Tuskegee and the remainder of the county have long been beset by racial strife, and until recent years, Negroes even though they outnumber white residents nearly five to one, were able to get only a few of their people registered as voters. A federal court school integra- tion order in September, 1963, touched off a mass boycott by white pupils at three schools in the county. But when Tuskegee High School reopened last year, 59 white stu- dents joined 14 Negroes in class. MAYOR WAGNER Mayor Asks NOY. PD'ms To End Rift ALBANY, N.Y. (A') - Mayor Robert F. Wagner of New York City said yesterday it is time for leaders of the opposing forces to work out "a suitable understand- ing" in the Democratic dispute that has paralyzed the New York Legislature. Compromise is inevitable in the dispute, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy said yesterday, Now a power in state Democratic politics, Kennedy suggested that warring legislators reach those compromises and "go on with the state's business. Despite that high-level advice- from leaders that many consider on opposing sides-the new and badly divided Democratic majori- ties in the Legislature failed in new voting yesterday to agree on legislative leaders. Republican Gov. Nelson E. Rockefeller immediately fired a new blast at the.opposition party, charging that breakdown "threat- ens to impair many vital admin- istrative functions of state gov- ernment." Until leaders are named, the Legislature-a $1-million-a-month operation-cannot function. The Legislature adjourned to Monday. Two Democrats said that many members of their party in- tended to begin continuing ses- sions next week, taking "ballot after ballot" until a decision is reached. Several of the political leaders involved will meet today in New York City for more compromise talks in a search for agreement on the leaders. The fight over the powerful leadership posts exploded when the Democrats took control of the Legislature this month for the first. time in 30 years.

"Those persons who checked out of the Alexandria Hotel because of unsatisfactory accommodations will be reimbursed by Gibbs Tours for the nights that they did occupy their assigned rooms." 3. ". . . the anticipated reduction in fare for the Rock Island Southern Pacific passengers did not materialize. It was not clear until December 23 that such anticipated fare reduction would not be available. Therefore, Gibbs Tours Inc. paid the railroad the full normal round trip fare to Los Angeles. This fare, by the way, was the same fare that the original Special Train Tour had been based upon. In view-of the fact that Gibbs Tours had paid the railroad the full fare and on the assumption that the pas- sengers on the Golden State Train did enjoy the Tour and the hotel ac- commodations, we would like to know how many of these passengers feel that Gibbs Tours, from their own resources, not the railroad, should reim- burse each passenger in any amount. Gibbs Tours realizes that there was a notification to the effect that a refund of over $15 would be made and with this thought they are deeply interested in attempting to satisfy all of the passengers on this Tour. Any and all passengers who feel that Gibbs Tours should make any such settlements should contact their office 230 ,N. Michigan, Chicago, Ill. 60601 by mail before January 22." Student Government Council urges all such students to communicate immediately with Gibbs Tours and to send a carbon copy of their letters to SGC. 4. "While Gibbs Tours acts only in the capacity as agent for the in- dividual passengers and cannot assume any liabiilty with regard to such items as hotel accommodations, they do feel involved to the point that they will take every possible step to have the Alexandria Hotel compensate them (the students) for unsatisfactory accommodations.
