problems which come before school
boards in areas such as West JEFF

School Leaders
Enlargement
On Morse Bill
= D. c. Chiefs Control
Of Building Looms
Raises Questions

District education leaders were
in disagreement today on tech
nicalities Of q bill for school
borrowing introduced by Senator
Morse. Democrat Of Oregon.
But to a man. they supported
the legislation in principle and
praised Senator Morse for put
ting it before Congress this
session.
Senator Morse dropped the
bill in the hopper after District
Commissioners announced they
couldn't review school building
needs in time for Congress to
act on their recommendation.
The measure would let Com
missioners issue bonds up to $6s
million. to mature in a period
up to 20 years. The city fathers
would control what school build
ings would be constructed with
the money.
Control Causes Concern
Walter N. Tobriner, Board Of
Education member, though
grateful for Senator Morse's ac-
ton, said he had serious res
ervations" about handing the
Commissioners so much control
over school building.
Instead. Congress should re-
tain power over annual appro-
priations for school construction,
he said. The power would stay
on Capitol Hill. under a pro-
gram urged by the District Con-
gress Of Parents and Teachers.
Mr.. Tobriner noted the PTA
had asked for financing by
Treasury loans. patterned after
Federal loans now made for
water and sewer lines in the
District.
Under this system. requests for
construction could 60 annually
with the Commissioners budget
for final approval Of the Senate
and House Appropriations Com
mittees. according to Mr.. To-
briner.
Shoemaker Prefers Loans
r. N. Shoemaker. chairman of
the legislation committee Of the
local PTA. said he shared Mr..
Tobriner's preference for Treas
ury loans. The men said they
would suggest either a new bill
or ask for amendments at Sem
ate hearings on the Morse pro-
Iposal.
Senator Morse's bill was de-
veloped from a draft prepared
by Gerhard p. van Arkel, chair
man Of the Washington Com
mittee for Public Schools, q vol
untary group formed to watch
dog local school administration
Mr.. van Arkel said floating
tax-exempt bond issues would
save the District UP to one per
cent on the multi-million dollar
program.
