before the big national ]
start July 18th. If it does
keep itself busy during the
coming months dealing with a
host of legislative headlines.
The headlines involve laws
which have fixed expiration
dates in 1860.
The first deadline falls on
Jan. 31st when the unemploy-
ment compensation program
for Korean War veterans ex-
pires. The next big deadline will
be June Both when a long list
Of laws expire including: the
Mutual Security Program; au-
thority for loans and grants for
hospital construction under the
Hill-Burton Act; wartime ex-
else and corporate tax rates;
authorization for urban renewal
programs under the National
Housing Act; and the Presi-
dents emergency powers under
the Defense Production Act to
fix priorities, allocate strategic
materials and expand indus
trial capacity.
In addition. all appropriation
bills should be passed by this
date since the new fiscal year
begins July 1st.
The Administrations legis-
lative program will be out
lined when the President de-
livers his State of the Union
message shortly after Con-
gress recOnvenes. Later his
Budget Message will spell out
the proposed legislation in
detail as well as give the esti-
mated cost of our domestic,
foreign and defense programs.
Other Presidential messages
will follow on such issues as
civil rights, health and welfare
matters, mutual security, a new
farm program, etc. All of this
points up the fact that the
months ahead are going to be
extremely busy and interesting
ones,
Summer Park Employment
Each spring I receive num-
ber of inquiries from high
school and college students re-
garding the possibility of sum-
mer employment in the Ma
tional Parks. Many times the
request is received too late af-
ter all job vacancies are filled.
| urge all interested students
to write me at $50 House Of
flee Building, Washington 25,
DC, as soon as possible.
The National Park Service
will begin accepting applica-
tions for summer employment
in January. Usually all jobs are
filled by March. Naturally, the
student who has his application
in early stands the best chance
of obtaining job at the Ma
tional Park of his choice. ! will
be happy to send additional in
formation to those who so de-
sire.
War Orphans Education
The Veterans Administration
estimates that approximately
one-third of the eligible young
people are failing to take ad-
vantage of the War Orphans
Education Act due to three
major misconceptions with re-
spect to the law:
Cd Many of the eligible
young people fail to think of
themselves as orphans while
one parent is still living.
However, the law regards the
children of parent who died
from a wartime service-cOn-
nected injury or illness as
orphans, even with the other
parent alive.
CD Eligible children who
have married often consider
themselves no longer eligible
for the educational privileges,
yet marriage has no bearing
upon eligibility under the
War Orphans Education Act.
(3) Some eligible children
believe that they may pur-
sue training only at the col
lege level under this law.
The VA points out that in
stitutional training may be-
