most impossible to obtain the
minimum requested without such
support.
Mr.. Lowe said that while high
ways, water supply and sanitary
sewage would be taken care of
under the proposed tax increases,
other phases of the program such
as schools, welfare and health
facilities must be provided for
by the increased Federal appro-
priation and interest-bearing
loans from the Government.

why delinquency occurs must be
faced. He recommended strong
support of existing institutions,
such as the District Youth Coun-
ell.
