COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION SUGGESTED
TO HELP THE QUEEN LOUISE HOME

Is it true, as reported, that a Lutheran organization
is going to purchase land for $4,000 and erect a build
ing which is estimated to cost $4,000 and that an archi-
tect has already been consulted about this project?
If true, it would be a splendid project indeed.
But, then so would the purchase Of fresh milk for
the 26 tiny children Of the Queen Louise Home in Fred
eriksted, a Lutheran home which takes in unfortunate
children regardless of religion.
Fresh milk from the Island Diaries would cost $500
a day of $145.6O a month or $1747. 90 a year. s
Other things needed in the Queen Louise Home are
sheets, pillows, pillow cases, pajamas, short pants, new
cribs (some are so old that wheels cannot be bought for
them), light blankets, mattresses, sturdy toys, sturdy
furniture, diapers and shoes. In order to help the Queen
Louise Home for Children, which is the purpose of this
AVIS series, it has been suggested by private citizens
that Community Organization be started whose pur-
pose would be to encourage donations to the home,
ither money or clothes or furniture or fresh milk or
magazines or other needed equipment.
Perhaps this would be one good way to give the
children Of the home a better start in life.

comes the finding of means to
achieve a successful and satisfac-
tory tax reform without damaging
the vital interests of America.
What do we mean by the vital
interests of America? Certainly
they include a program of sound
fiscal policy on the part of the
Federal Government. Tax reform
which means a deficit, substantial
deficit, even temporary sub
stantial deficit, is one which has
got to be watched every carefully
For this reason we must adjust our
domestic spending very prudently
if we are to achieve the transition
to a new kind of tax structure. The
Congress will have a grave re-
sponsibility in enacting new pro-
grams during the coming year so
that we do not overspend and
make it impossible to achieve the
kind of tax reform that we all
agree is necessary.

There are some instances in
which this is going to be very diff
ficult. One example, is the Fed
eral payroll which has been grow
ing by leaps and bounds during the
past two years The President has
indicated that he would like to
have last years Federal pay raise
absorbed by personnel" When he
Celebrates on this remark it may
mean that he is going to reverse
the policy of his Administration
and start to reduce instead of in
crease the number of people on
the Federal payroll. While the
President was outlining his plans
for the future, Congress was not
asleep. In the same copy of the
Congressional Record which rec
ords the State of the Union Mes
sage, it is noted that Fl. r. 1847
has been introduced for the at
tention of the House of Represen-
tatives. This means that 1847 bills
we're already offered by Members
of the House of Representatives
for the consideration of their col
leagues. There is indeed great
deal going on in Washington to-
day and l look forward to discuss
ing it with you throughout the
year.

At the beginning of every Ses-
sion of Congress, one of the mile
stones of the year is the discharge
of the Presidents constitutional
duty to report to the Congress on
the State of the Union. During
the past week, President Kennedy
performed this duty by coming to
Capitol Hill in person and giving
report which reflected not only
his opinion as to the present con-
dition of the country but also some
of his plans for the future. 1t is
this area, this projection of things
to come that | would like to dis
cuss little bit with you today.
The most significant change that
the President recommended was a
need for tax reform in which
WIDELY concur. The means to
achieve this tax reform is not quite
as clear as the overall need, nor
is there quite the same general
agreement. The President proposes
that there should be a thirteen
and one-half billion dollar tax cut
spaced over a period of three years.
He further proposes that the in
dividual tax rates which now range
between twenty percent and nine
ty-one percent, should be adjusted
to range from fourteen percent to
sixty-five percent of income, and
he suggests a change in corporate
tax rates from fifty-two percent to
forty-seven percent. All these adj
iustments seem to be in line with
the advice of the economists and
with the desire of our own business
community They seem to be adj
justments which could stimulate
greater economic growth.
At the time of the enactment of
the Trade Expansion Program we
observed that the foreign trade of
this Nation could only be adjusted
favorably if we put our business
men into competition with foreign
countries not only in the matter of
tariff adjustments, but also tax re-
form and certain other vital fac
tors in our economy. To this extent,
l pledge my support to the Presi-
dent in the objective that he has
laid out in the State of the Union
message. In the determination of
means there will be, of course,
many disagreements and to re-
solve them will be the function of
the Congress. This function be-

The Home Economics girls at

been focusing their attention On
Food-for-Fitness during the past
few weeks. This is one of the
Youth Power projects and is spon-

The cd girls planned youth

use only the foods which they
found in the laboratory. The meal
was to supply one-third of the daily
nutrients. In order to do this the
girls had to count the nutrients
and supply any nutrient which was
lacking. AS a result of this work
the girls made the following menu:

pared to-the-bone budget.
The school board made the

to bring its budget in line with

adopted a resolution scolding
the school board and asking it
to redistribute the cuts without

some county citizens have
blamed the supervisors for
