CPY GHT . ' A2994 CPY TLEDGE EXPORTED TO POOR NEIGHBORHOODS 11 (By Kenneth Eskey) This has been a banner year on college campuses for demonstrations, protests, up- heavals, and revolts. Generally overlooked was a quiet form of activity known as tutoring. Hundreds of Pittsburgh college students spent their afternpons and evenings in settle- ment houses and church basements, helping boys and girls learn arithmetic and spelling, ph tea physics and debates on Vietnam are teach- ins, perhaps the tutoring sessions in city neighborhoods can be called teachouts. The teachouts here stem from the civil rights and antipoverty movements. Much of the tutoring is done in poor neighborhoods, where, children often need extra help to keep up with more fortunate classmates., Chatham College students have been work- ing at Fifth Avenue High School and Herron Hill junior, High School since 1963. Action-Housing has been using college stu- dents as tutors in Homewood-Brushton, Hazelwood, and the Perry Hilltop area. But the largest tutoring programs in town are the Hill education project (HEP) at the University of Pittsburgh and the North Side tutorial project in Manchester. REP is strictly a student operation. Pitt's contribution is a room on the fifth floor of Schenley Hall. This year's cochairmen were Irv Garfinkel, a history major from Squirrel Hill who wants to be a social worker, and Marcia McNutt, a doctor's daughter from Ford City who con- siders HEP a full-time job. Marcia figures HEP is a good energy outlet. "Some students just sit around smoking marihuana and drinking booze," she said, without citing any cases. Her biggest problem-a shortage of tutors. "See those flies," she said, pointing to an open drawer. "Those are requests we can't handle." As many as 250 students have been active tutors during the school year, ' and another 50 to 75 worked as supervisors or youth club directors. ((~~ ~~pp~~ tutoring force `has dwindled to about `84isinice the end of Pitt's winter trimester in April, but a major summer program is planned for July and August. Most of the tutoring Is done at the Held- man Center in the Hill district. Tutors are expected to work 2 to 4 hours a week, usually late afternoons and evenings. There is no pay, only the satisfaction of doing a job. The North Side tutorial project uses stu- dents from other Pittsburgh colleges. Like HEP, it started in 1963. Supervisor of the North Side program is Mary Frances Brown, who gets a salary through the United Fund, operates out of Manchester House and attends Duquesne University part time. The 110 tutors: in her program are unpaid and, generally put in one afternoon or eve- ning a week. Many of the tutors come from the other side Of town., Janet,; raunstein, a sophomore at.Carnegie Institute o(''Technoiogy, commutes from her home in Greenfield each weel to the Bidwell Street Presbyterian Church to tutor a fifth grader in English. How many tutoring programs there are in, tbe.city no one knows, but the list is grow- inggyather Milan shrinking. Duquesne ,'and iVkt.'14ercy College students have been tutoring at Brashear Center In the South Side and the Mount Mercy stu- dents also tutor at St. Clair Village. The School of Education at Duquesne has as pecial program for teachers preparing for jobs in poar neighborhoods and runs its own tutoring program on the side. CPYP CPYRGH College students will serve this summer as assistant teachers in Project Head Start, an antipoverty program to prepare children for kindergarten and first grade. Literacy and Poll Tax EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. THOMAS L. ASHLEY OF .OHIO IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Wednesday, June 9, 1965 Mr. ASHLEY. Mr. Speaker, I am con- cerned at the inconsistency of a voting rights bill which purports to give every citizen the right to vote by eliminating literacy tests but gives only passing rec- ognition to the more widespread dis- crimination from the levying of a poll tax. A Toledo Blade editorial of May 27, "Literacy and Poll Taxes," points up the incongruity in the argument over the that a poll tax actually results in wid- er discrimination by keeping more peo- ple, both white and Negro, from exer- cising their right to vote than literacy tests aimed at racial" discrimination. This is a point well worth considering in the days ahead, a?id it is my hope that this body will act to eliminate the poll tax as well as to outlaw literacy tests. Mr. Speaker, I would like to include as part of my remarks the Toledo Blade editorial to which I referred and com- mend it to the attention of my col- leagues: With administration leaders planning to voice,. cloture to. force a vote in the Senate n the voting rights bill, two arguments con- nue on its constitutionality. The effort by northern liberals to impose flat prohibition on poll taxes in State and I cal elections bas been sidetracked, at least mporarily. By a slim majority, the Senate voted ainst that provision, on the grounds that I was probably unconstitutional. Instead, f adopted a declaration that in certain tates the right to vote is denied or abridged y requiring poll tax payments. This is intended to strengthen the hand of ttorney general Katsenbach in getting the preme Court to invalidate. poll taxes for at reason, On the other hand, the Senate majority rushed aside southern opposition to a pro- ion of the bill which will prohibit literacy t sts in five Southern States and parts of o others. It rejected an amendment which ould have required a voter, regardless of r ce, to prove only that he could read and rite English. Favoring a strong voting rights bill t ough we do, what baffles us is the incon- s tency by which the Senate majority goes amantly ahead in banning literacy tests at hesitates to do the same for poll taxes. Poll taxes, on their face, restrict voting r ghts to those who can afford to pay for 1 e privilege. If they have been employed f r years to bar Negroes from the polls in a me of the Southern States, they have also en equally effective in keeping a great any whites from voting. Their elimination would extend voting rights to both groups indlscriminantly. Barring literacy tests only in five South- ern States and parts of two others would be Federal discrimination with a vengeance. In New York State, where uniform literacy tests are required for voters who cannot produce an eighth-grade certificate, it is estimated that 15 percent of those taking the test fail every year. Is Federal law to presume that all the peo- ple in Alabama and Mississippi are smarter than these New Yorkers? As for the contention that any literacy test could be employed to deny Negroes their vot- ing rights, what about California's, where a person seeking to register need only be able to write his name in English? A key provision of the voting rights bill is that Federal examiners shall register vot- ers in areas where discrimination is practiced. What could be simpler than to have them register by signing their names in English, as is done in California? New York State Legislature Urges Presi- ss To Condemn Soviet 'ENSIGN OF REMARKS OF HON. ABRAHAM J. MULTER OF NEW YORK IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Wednesday, June 9, 1965 Mr. MULTER. Mr. Speaker, I com- mend to the attention of our colleagues the following resolution adopted by the Legislature of the State of New York on May 12, 1965, urging our Government to take an official stand against Soviet anti-Semitism: RESOLUTION 90 Concurrent resolution memorializing the President and the Congress of the United States to condemn anti-Semitism in the Soviet Union and to take steps to prevent further persecutions of, and acts of terror- ism and confiscation against, Jews residing therein Whereas the people of the State of New York and of the United States are deeply shocked by reports appearing in the press and elsewhere concerning the continued oppres- sion, persecution and tyranny of the Govern- ment of Soviet Russia directed toward Rus-. sian Jewry residing in Soviet Russia; and Whereas many acts of terrorism, confisca- tion and persecution have already been com- mitted against such Jewry and even more serious acts are threatened; and Whereas such acts have resulted, unjustly and unwarrantedly, in the confiscation of property and in the deprivation of rights, privileges and immunities possessed by the Jewish people in that country; and Whereas the Government of the United States because of its humanitarian interests in the various peoples of this country and their interest in and relationship to the persecuted Jews of Soviet Russia, should register emphatic protest with the Russian Government with a firm request that it should cease and desist in Its program of persecution; and Whereas the Government of the United States has on other occasions intervened and interceded in behalf of persecuted minori- ties in other countries: Now, therefore, be it Approved For Release 2005/07/13 : CIA=RDP67B00446R000400170014-5 Approved Fo R~ee 22005/ 7/13 C A RDP67B00446R000400170014-5 1965 CONGRESSIONAL RECORD - APPENDIX A29R9 --+~ of Alabama to give the people, for the I H~iaUt~ , eak people and their representative is an first time. an opportunity to share with important port of rho c?nressful i,,,,r_ ,their representative in Congress their tioning of representative government. views.,on,thevital os of, the day.

For years, there has een hand wringing about, the state of American highways-the billboard "Ilgilt s, a cancerous growth o auto junkyards recently. Robert Moses, through his .Long Island parkways, first reversed this trend by establishing the precedent of green barrier strip to shut out unsightliness. The Federal Government, through its vast intergtatQ highway system, sought to achieve the same end through bonuses to the States. The. assorted . State turnpike authorities or cong4issions, to a greater or lesser degree, set up some controls. But nobody laid it on the line better, or more clearly defined the issues, than Wd the President last week. Mr.' Johnson asked Congress to take four significant steps: 1. Except in areas "zoned or used predomi- nantly for commercial or industrial pul?- poses," the States would be required to pro- hibit billboards within 1,000 feet of inter- state and primary Federal-aid highways, these, in New York including major State highays. The penalty: the loss of Federal- aid moneys for the construction of such roads. 2. New junkyards would be banned within 1,000 feet, and existing eyesores of this type would have to be screened or removed by 1970. The same penalty could be invoked. 3. States would be required to use 3 per- cent of Federal highway aid (about $120 million at present levels) for beautification along the-roads. - - 4. One-third of the Federal aid received for secondary roads (about $100 million) would have to be used to construct scenic secondary roads, or to construct access roads to beauty spots, or for landscaping along pr,sent roads. 16.2 27.6 40.1 11.8 16.8 9. 1 4. 1 81.8 63.8 69. 5 4.6 16.4 79.2 40.0 89.9 62.3 34.8 16.7 00.9 14.9 36. 0 38.3 4. 7 89. 0 18.2 5.6 4.2 78. 4 71.8 71. 6 89. 6 12. 9 28. 1 23.0 91. 3 64.0 8.9 46.8 5.8 10.2 6. 5 e. 6 1.9 5.6 46.1 54.9 tPYRGH ,These are all concrete suggestions.

MOORHEAD OF PENNSYLVANIA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Tuesday, June 1, 1965 Mr. MOORHEAD. Mr. Speaker, col- lege students in my congressional district in Pittsburgh have undertaken in recent months their own war on poverty by tutoring children in poor neighborhoods of our city, thus making a: positive con- tribution in helping those children.keep up with classmates who have had greater educational advantages. Mr. Kenneth Eskey in the June 8 issue of the Pittsburgh Press has written an excellent report on this significant activ- ity. I include Mr. Eskey's report at this point in my remarks : Approved For Release 2005/07/13 : CIA-RDP67B00446R000400170014-5 Resolved (if the senate concur) " That the President and the Congress of the United States be and they are hereby respectfully memorialized to condemn anti-Semitism in the Soviet Union and that the Secretary of State of the United States of America be and he hereby is respectfully memorialized to lodge an official protest on behalf of the Gov- ernment of the United States with the Rus- sian Government against the concerted at- tack presently being continued directly and indirectly, by the latter government toward Russian Jews residing in such country and that the Department of State be and it hereby is respectfully memorialized to em- ploy its best diplomatic efforts in an `attempt to persuade the Russian Government to de- sist from any further persecutions and acts of terrorism and confiscation complained of in this resolution; and be it further Resolved (if the senate concur) That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, the Sec- retary of the Senate of-the United States, the Clerk of the House of Representatives of the United States, and to the Secretary of State of the United States and to each Member of Congress duly elected from the State of New York and that the latter be urged to do everything possible to accomplish the pur- poses of this resolution.

BRADFORD MORSE OF MASSACHUSETTS IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Wednesday, June 9, 1965 Mr. MORSE. Mr. Speaker, I have long believed that an economy as buoyant and imaginative as that of the United States should look upon projected reductions in defense spending as an opportunity rather than a problem. I was delighted to note' in the Monday, June 7 issue of the Wall Street Journal that one of the most thoughtful members of, the business community, Chase Man- hattan Bank President David Rocke- feller, expressed a similar view in a re- cent Seattle address. Mr. Rockefeller pointed out that lead- ing defense firms need not be restricted to defense problems. He said: The fact is that they are in the problem- solving business and this Nation is a long way from running out of problems. I commend Mr. Rockefeller's remarks to all of my colleagues and ask unani- mous consent to include the Wall Street Journal account of his address in the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD following my re- marks: DAVIDROCKEFELLER SAYS UNITED STATES CAN ABSORB SLASH IN DEFENSE SPENDING: CHASE BANK PRESIDENT CITES NEED To STRESS GROWTH POSSIBILITIES MILITARY CUTBACK WOULD AFFORD NEW YORK.-David Rockefeller, president of Chase Manhattan Bank, said the United States could stand a heavy reduction in de- fense spending In the next' few years without serious disruption of the national economy. In a Seattle speech, Mr. Rockefeller said the cutbacks could be absorbed if business, communities, and Government take "sensible steps to regear the. defense machinery to civilian needs." "I feel that too much emphasis has been placed on the problem of conversion and too little on the opportunities it affords for strengthening our longrun growth poten- tial," he asserted. "Fear of the economic impact of defense cutbacks has been exag- gerated to the point where it has obscured for many people the underlying dynamism of our economy and its remarkable resilience in adjusting to change." GROSS NATIONAL PRODUCT Mr. Rockefeller suggested that the cur- rent 9 to 10 percent contribution of defense activities to the gross national product could safely be cut back to 5 percent or even lower if, as projected, the gross national product rises to about $780 billion by 1970 from the present $660 billion. That reduction, he said, could be effected "without imposing an unsustainable burden and, I would hope, without weakening our defenses." Already, Mr. Rockefeller noted, there are many instances in which communities where military installations have been closed have replaced them with nondefense Industries. Also, he said numerous industries are apply- ing techniques learned in defense production to new types of civilian-goods production. He cited specifically the success of Seattle- based Boeing Co. In expanding commercial aircraft sales as military sales declined. "Many defense contractors do themselves an injustice in conveying the impression that they can work only on missiles and space vehicles," Mr. Rockefeller said. "The fact is that they are in the problem-solving busi- ness, and this Nation is a long way from running out of problems. SPACE AND.

A major part o Federal tax savings, he urged, should b channeled into private hands "to support private investment in the vast task of re- building our cities," with State and local governments given access to more money fo Griffin Is Right but Cause Is Lost EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON.

H The American formula for survival 1 this atomic age is strict limitation upon the l5ower of government. Some professed liberals, however, are seeking to undermine our Con- stitution, and liberate our Government from all constitutional limitations. This process has taken the form of unlimited taxing and spending by our Government. . Over 700 Government-owned corporations are operating in direct competition with pri- vate enterprise. Where is the constitutional authority, in the original document or through amendment, that permits the Fed- eral Government to operate power companies, insurance or manufacturing businesses, or other components of the welfare-illfare state? The powers not specifically delegated are re- served to the States under the 10th amend- ment to the Constitution. In these crucial times, is not too much emphasis put on so-called rights, when wrongs are being inflicted on the Consti- tution? The field of education, for example, is not excluded from State control, but it is excluded from Federal control, because it has never been delegated to the Federal Gov- ernment, and is reserved under the 10th amendment. The 14th amendment, if relied on for justi- fication, was never legally adopted. Three- fourths of the States failed to ratify, and New Jersey and Ohio rescinded their previous ratifications. The 14th amendment, however, has never been legally applicable, because only to the Congress is given the power to enforce its provisions. The Constitution has been grossly disre- garded, and the socialistic theories of a Swede, Gunnar Myrdal, substituted, by means of a court decision, under which the Constitution is thought to be outmoded as impractical and unsuited to modern con- ditions; that its adoption was nearly a plot against the common people. In recent years, court decisions have ranged from forced in- tegration to forced reapportionment. Such decisions, is not conforming to the law of the land, fall under the heading of what Justice Cardozo would have called enforceable de- crees, but not real decisions. Such decisions are thought by many to be lawless, in that the court presumes to make law, a power it does not have. Article IV, section 4, guarantees to every State a republican form of government, and protection against invasion either by Fed- eral troops or U.S. marshals, except on ap- plication of the legislature or the State's executive. The use of force, to implement an invalid decree, is in direct violation of the constitutional provision. The Civil Rights Act of 1960 was alleged to contain 11 or more specific violations of the Constitution. The Civil Rights Act of 1965, illegal and unconstitutional on its face, is to be used as a club against Virginia and States in the Deep South, which did not support the administration in the recent presidential electlpn.. _ Will there be anything left of the Con- stitution, unless these usurpations of power by Federal agencies are checked? The Federal Government is today imposing on the States and the people in the same manner that the central government under George III imposed upon the American colonists in 1776. "The British monarch has erected a mul- titude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance." Does that sound familiar? Federal bureaucracy is rampant through- out the land, to the point of confiscation, and Federal agencies operate to enforce cen- tralized authority, rather than reflect the will of the people.
