timated. aid for school opera
ton and maintenance would
decline by s47.ol6,664, from
$l63. 956,676 to $1l6,940.012.
That's a drop Of 20 per cent.
For school construction, assis-
lance would decline from SOL
136. 900 to sac. S4,60O-a drop
of $l4.250.400 or % per cent.
The total decline of SOL
267,064 for the two programs
would amount to 81 per cent.
The most important change
would affect school districts
with children whose parents
work on tax-exempt Federal
property but live OF the prop
erty.
Under present law, If school
maintenance and operation
costs 5000 per pupil per year
and 500 Of this comes from
local tax sources, the Federal
Government chips in $5O-half
the spending derived from local
tax sources. This is true wheth-
er or not the Federal installa-
ton is in the child's school dis
trict. The aid applies, for ex-
ample, to children attending
school in Arlington whose par
ents work for the Federal Gov
eminent in the District of CO.
lumbia.
For construction, the Federal
Government pays the school
district half the building cost
Of classrooms needed to accom-
modate additional students
whose parents work on Federal
property-whether or not the
property is in the school dis
trict.
Mr.. Flemming called this
system "unrealistic.".
Urges Cut in Aid
He proposed reduction of
assistance for both operation
maintenance and construction
from so per cent to. 40 per
cent for children whose par
ents work on Federal property
in the school district. When
the Federal installation is out
side the school district, aid
would be cut to rs per cent.
The latter situation applies,
for example, to 21,026 school
children in Fairfax County and
17,025 in Montgomery County.
Another change would elm
mate Federal aid to school
districts for children whose
parents work or live on Federal
property that can be taxed
locally. This is the case with
Federal property leased to pri-
vate firms or individuals.
In addition, Mr.. Flemming
proposes to discontinue aid to
school districts to handle in
creased enrollments resulting
from Government contract
work. Such contractors are
taxable, he said, so there is
no justification for Federal aid
to the school districts.
Unchanged Aspects
Unchanged by the proposals
is the system of aid to school
districts for children whose
parents live and work on tax
exempt Federal property. For
operation and maintenance,
this assistance is the full
amount financed out of local
tax revenues. For construction,
it is IS per cent of the cost
of building needed additional
class rooms.
Also unchanged would be
the existing formula for aid
to school districts for children
whose parents live on tax
exempt Federal property but
work off the property. The
Federal Government pays halt
the operation and maintenance
costs derived from local tax
revenues, and half the con-
Estruction costs.

COmpensates for Loss
Federal aid for operation and
construction Of elementary and
secondary schools is designed TO
compensate school districts for
the extra financial burden Of
educating children whose par
ents work on Federal installa-
TONS. and for loss Of taxes Oh
Federal property.
Mr.. Flemming told a press
conference the proposed
changes are designed to reduce
Federal assistance in excess of
revenue actually lost by school
districts because Federal prop
|erty Is exempt from local taxes.
While conceding his plan is
controversial" the Secretary
indicated he was hopeful that
Congress will approve. He noted
that a House Appropriations
Subcommittee recently called
for reduction of the school aid
OUTLAWS.
The administrations pro-
posals, he said. would put the
program on a sounder founda-
ton" and thus eliminate the
danger that the whole aid con-
cept may be wiped out because
Of inequlties.
Mr.. Flemming estimated his
plan would reduce aid to Vir-
ginia for operation and main

to $7.605.452-or by $2,749,5 92.

The total decline for Mary

come to SO per cent.
The District, itself. would not
be affected directly, since it
does not participate in programs
of aid for federally impacted
areas.
In SIX suburban school dis
tricts, the proposals would re-
duce assistance for operation
and maintenance in the next
school year by $2.842,5oO. or 81
per cent. Under existing law
these districts would receive an
estimated $8,796.179. The adj
