Visiting First Lady
is Welfare Leader
By FRANCES LIDE
Star Staff Writer

Her current visit to the
United States is providing
much useful first-hand in
formation on various well
fare techniques for Mrs. Ra-
mon Villeda Morales, wife
Of the President of Honduras.
But her schedule here isn't
any heavier than a normal
day at home.
AS president of the Nation
al Board of Social Welfare
which she helped to organ
ize shortly after her hus-
bands inauguration in 1857,
the First Lady of Honduras
has her own office, observes
an eight-hour day and fire.
quently has meetings at
night, she reported at a press
conference yesterday at Peace
Corps headquarters.
It was the Peace Corps
that brought Mrs. Villeda
Morales to this country.
Honduras has requested 30
Peace Corps volunteers to
work in public health and So
cial service and the visiting
First Lady already has met
the recruits at their training
program at st. Louis Univer-
sity.
Grateful for Aid
She is very grateful to the
United States, she said, for
being willing to share its
social workers with little
countries, especially since
she knows they are in short
supply here, too.
Honduras is just starting a
program of rehabilitation for
the handicapped, so a tour of
the Goodwill Industries Re-
Mobilization Center was the
first stop on her schedule yes
terday.
Mrs. Villeda Morales knew
of the Industries from her
residence in Washington
when her husband was Am
bassador, and the visit was
arranged at her request.
From there, her party
went to the new headquar-
tiers of the Family and Child
Services of Washington-still
with similar Honduran prof.
ectS in mind.
And after luncheon at the
Department of State, Mrs.
Villeda Morales visited the
District of Columbia Youth
Councils Boys Club at the
All Souls Unitarian Church.

With her press conference

First Lady decided to slip in

mated. In effect, therefore. the
child care deduction now is
available only to working
mothers in families with a
combined income OF under
$500. There is no similar in
come limit for widowers,
though.
The limit was too low to
begin with. Now with average
family income running at S.

professional care amounting to
$40 to SIS per child a week,
the limit is obviously obsolete.
The state is set for tax re-

nations, the stage would be set

matters. There are more than
"a million women with jobs in
the United States today. AL
most 6 million are unmarried
and over 35 years of age. Many
are working mothers who are
paying for child care essential
to their being able to hold jobs
and pay taxes.
The discrimination against
the unmarried woman over 35
including those who never
married, are widowed, divorced
or legally separated arises
from the fact that while they
may be heads of households,
they cannot meet the rigid re-
quirements for this classified
ton under the tax law an d
thus are denied the tax bene-
fits. For instance, to be eligi-

The tax differential Is sub

hold tax benefits to all un-
married women over IS, among
others. The bill has received
considerable favorable response
and will come UP again.
Injustices Stressed
The injustice to the young
working mother arises from the
fact that the 5000 deduction
for child care expenses offered
to working wives and widowers
is so limited by qualifications
that few can get the relief. To
obtain this deduction, a work
ing wife must file a Joint re-

ALLEN Nj. SYMTHE
Contributing Writer

Defense Secretary Mcnamara
Is applying his commercial bus
iness experience to another area
of Pentagon procurement prac-
tices in an effort to reduce
costs. His problem revolved
around the over So billion in
excess personal property" he
found in defense supplies when
he took over his new job.
His first step was to con-
solidate all suplus disposal un-
der the new Defense Supply
Agency which is under his per-
sonal supervision.
All service establishments
were ordered to report any ex-
cess material as soon as pos
sible. The DSA was ordered to
report all available material to
every military buying agency
within three weeks.
Figures just released show
that these and other orders
raised the value of the ma
terial to be disposed of in fis-
cal 1862 to $8.7 billion. The
carry-over to this fiscal year
was $2.8 billion. The balance
was redistributed, sold or
Scrapped.
Greater Return Pledged
The total proceeds of all
sales was $142 million. Mr.
Mcnamara in a recent letter
to the President promised "an
increasing rate of return" on
defense surplus disposal.
The law requires that all ex-
cess material be distributed first
to military agencies. our NATO
allies and other Federal depart
ments in that order. Congress
gave military schools. the Boy
Scouts and the Girl Scouts the
next priority.
The Health, Education, and
Welfare Agency can then dis
tribute material needed by pub

lie schools, colleges, UNIVERSE
ties, clinics and other tax sup
ported institutions. HEW has
established State offices to as
sist in this distribution.
After 80 days the DSA can
scrap or sell the surplus ma
terial. The 800 offices former
ly used by the armed services
for this disposal have been re-
duced to 35 with four regional
directors.
$4,000 Potential Buyers
Any company or organiza-
ton interested in securing any
class of material can be placed
on a bidders list and informed
in advance of sales and where
the special equipment can be
inspected. Some $4,000 firms
are now on the list.
During fiscal 1862 over $2.4
billion of this excess material
was redistributed. Much high
valued equipment such as air.
craft and naval vessels went
to our NATO allies. Schools
received small machine tools,
instruments, and office equip
ment.
Over $l.2 billion of surplus
was sold as usable material.
S2.2 billion was reduced to scrap
and sold. DSA officials expect
to handle less material this
year but expect a higher net
return from sales.
The DSA has five types OF
sales methods to accommodate
prospective purchasers and for
different types of surplus prop
|erty. They are: the sealed bid,
the spot bid, auction, negoti-
ated and the retail method.
The General Services Admin
istration handles surplus equip
ment from other Federal agen-
cies. In fiscal year 1862, it ap-
preached $400 million in orig
inal value.
