TASK FORCES
Two new task f orces are being f o rmed--Loca l Coali t i ons and Communicat i ons .
Co-Chairmen for Local Coaliti ons are (1 ) Mayor Joseph Barr of Pittsbu rgh ,
(2) a businessman to be selected as soon as possible, and (3) Arnold
Aaronson, of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights. Co-Chairmen for
Communications are (1) Joseph Allen, President of McGraw-Hill Publications,
(2) John Johnson, President of Johnson Publications (Ebony, Jet), and
(3) Harold Fleming, President of the Potomac Institute. Also, Roy Ash of
Litton Industries has agreed to serve as Co-Chairman of the Task Force on
Educational Disparities with Dr . Arthur Flemming and Roy Wilkins.
�-2-
PRIVATE EMPLOYMENT
Representatives of the Co-Chairmen of the task force met with the coordinating staff. They are considering pilot meetings (probably New York,
Detroit, Atlanta) at which 10-20 representatives of the local corporate
structure will generate ideas and lay the groundwork for local action.
The first meeting would be held early in October. Under consideration
for follow-up to the local meetings is a national meeting to launch plans
for assisting local private employment programs. The task force also
plans to prepare a handbook for the initiation and developmen t of local
task forces on private employment.
LOCAL COALITIONS
Cities in which local coalitions are already in the process of formation--or
a re likely to be--are being identified. These cities will be contacted to
send representatives to a national meeting in Chicago on October 18. At
this meeting there will be presentations on the techniques of establishing
and operating local coalition task forces on private employment, legislation (public service employment) and communications. Meanwhile, staff
li aison from the Coalition will be available to any city coalition working
in these three areas. Hopefully 50 or more local coalitions will be in
op era tion by early November .
NOTE:
All members of working committee were asked to immediately contact
their principals and urge them to contact key people in local
ccmmunities who could be helpful in establishing local coalitions
as emphasized in the Coalition's Statement of Principles, Goals
and Commitments.
PUBLIC SERVICE EMPLOYMENT
The t ask force urged members of the working committee to relay to their
principals th e need f or telegrams , calls and letters in support of the
Cl ark- Javits bi ll . I t was explained that the Coalition's endorsement of
this l egislation was t aken as a result of polling members of the steering
committee as agreed at the previous meet ing . In ord er to keep procedures
cl ear, the t a sk force will meet before the Octob er 9 steering committee
meet i ng to draw up recommendations to the Committee for Coalition policy
on pending legislation .
COMMUNICATIONS
The three Co-Chairmen of this task force h ave d efined their objectives as
three-fold : (1 ) communicat ing to the public the meaning, goals and activities of the Urban Coalition, ( 2 ) working with other task forces in producing materials which wil l offer technical assistance and guidance in implementing coalition programs and (3) mounting a nationwide educational effort
on the urgency of the urban crisis.
The national Advertising Council has registered a strong interest in assisting the Urban Coalition and has scheduled a special meeting with a coalition

MINUTES OF A MEETING OF THE WORKING COMMITTEE
Washington, D. C.
September 21, 1967
John Feild opened the meeting and defined the working committee as a review-
ing and coordinating body with the primary objective of insuring a steady
flow of information to the national steering committee so that the steering
committee will be able to make appropriate decisions at its meetings.
NOTE: Steering committee will meet Monday, October 9 at 7:30 PM in
New York at the Time-Life Building.
ADMINISTRATION
Office space has been secured in the Federal Bar Building West, 1819 H Street NW
(telephone 293-1530). John Feild and Ron Linton will continue as coordinators
for the Coalition. Full-time staff will consist of Olga Corey, information
coordinator and associate coordinators Mel Cotton and Chris Mould. Jim Gibson
of the Potomac Institute and Vernon Jordan of the Southern Regional Council
will be available on a part-time basis on loan from their respective agencies.
NOTE: An administrative report will be sent to you before the October 9
steering committee meeting. You will also receive a roster with
names, addresses and phone numbers of all steering committee
members and their representatives, A budget for operating the
Coalition will be presented to the steering committee on October 9.
PUBLICATIONS
A roster of all those who attended the Convocation will be sent out before the
October 9 meeting: everyone who attended will receive one. Complete proceed-
ings are also being prepared and will also be sent to everyone registered at
the Convocation.
NOTE: Because of printing costs, bulk copies of the proceedings can only be
supplied at cost. Please notify Olga Corey in advance of your organ-
ization's needs,
TASK FORCES
Two new task forces are being formed--Local Coalitions and Communications.
Co-Chairmen for Local Coalitions are (1) Mayor Joseph Barr of Pittsburgh,
(2) a businessman to be selected as soon as possible, and (3) Arnold
Aaronson, of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights. Co-Chairmen for
Communications are (1) Joseph Allen, President of McGraw-Hill Publications,
(2) John Johnson, President of Johnson Publications (Ebony, Jet), and
(3) Harold Fleming, President of the Potomac Institute. Also, Roy Ash of
Litton Industries has agreed to serve as Co-Chairman of the Task Force on
Educational Disparities with Dr. Arthur Flemming and Roy Wilkins.
ial
PRIVATE EMPLOYMENT
Representatives of the Co-Chairmen of the task force met with the coordi-
nating staff. They are considering pilot meetings (probably New York,
Detroit, Atlanta) at which 10-20 representatives of the local corporate
structure will generate ideas and lay the groundwork for local action.
The first meeting would be held early in October, Under consideration
for follow-up to the local meetings is a national meeting to launch plans
for assisting local private employment programs, The task force also
plans to prepare a handbook for the initiation and development of local
task forces on private employment.
LOCAL COALITIONS
Cities in which local coalitions are already in the process of formation--or
are likely to be--are being identified. These cities will be contacted to
send representatives to a national meeting in Chicago on October 18. At
this meeting there will be presentations on the techniques of establishing
and operating local coalition task forces on private employment, legisla-
tion (public service employment) and communications. Meanwhile, staff
liaison from the Coalition will be available to any city coalition working
in these three areas. Hopefully 50 or more local coalitions will be in
operation by early November.
NOTE: All members of working committee were asked to immediately contact
their principals and urge them to contact key people in local
communities who could be helpful in establishing local coalitions
as emphasized in the Coalition's Statement of Principles, Goals
and Commitments,
PUBLIC SERVICE EMPLOYMENT
The task force urged members of the working committee to relay to their
principals the need for telegrams, calls and letters in support of the
Clark-Javits bill. It was explained that the Coalition's endorsement of
this legislation was taken as a result of polling members of the steering
committee as agreed at the previous meeting. In order to keep procedures
clear, the task force will meet before the October 9 steering committee
meeting to draw up recommendations to the Committee for Coalition policy
on pending legislation.
COMMUNICATIONS
The three Co-Chairmen of this task force have defined their objectives as
three-fold: (1) communicating to the public the meaning, goals and activi-
ties of the Urban Coalition, (2) working with other task forces in produc-
ing materials which will offer technical assistance and guidance in imple-
menting coalition programs and (3) mounting a nationwide educational effort
on the urgency of the urban crisis,
The national Advertising Council has registered a strong interest in assist-
ing the Urban Coalition and has scheduled a special meeting with a coalition
representative to discuss how their interests, talents and energies may
best be used,
RECONSTRUCTION INVESTMENT AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
Task force Co-Chairmen are meeting in New York on October 5, This task
force will be working closely with the Insurance Committee on Urban
Problems which will also be working closely with local coalitions,
EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY
Task force co-chairmen have not met yet. A task force operating in Illinois
has expressed a desire to work with us,

FACTS AND COMMENTS ON THE MAJOR PROVISIONS
OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY AMENDMENTS OF 1967
INTRODUCTION:
The following is a comparison of the Administration's proposals _ for
amending the Social Security Act and the amendments to that Act passed
by the House of Representatives.
This analysis will be limited to major issues and policy variables
i n the areas of social security, medicare, medicaid, and public
assistance .
Social Security and Public Assistance Background: Social Security
constitutes a wage-related income insurance program to guard against
loss of income due to death, disability or old age of a wage earner.
Be n efi ts are the right of the wage earner, his spouse, or his children ,
d e p ending on the need situation of any one or combination of two
or more possible beneficiaries . Benefits are paid as a matter of right
and specific taxes are collected in a relatively progressive manner to
fund the program. The tax does not take, nor does the benefit structure
give, an amount totally adequate to meet all the financial needs
gene ra ted t hrough death, disability or old- age.
It does, however ,
provide a basic "floor of protection" on which the majority of the
Ameri can people can build a financia l ly secure future .
Public Assis tan ce , has neither the contributory nor the ea r ned r ight
aspe cts o f s ocia l secu r ity .
It is pa i d on the basis of n eed de f ined
by statute and admin i strat ive r egulation .
The £ ecip i e n ts o f
public assistance are such beca use of the conscience of , r ath e r than
their contribu t i o ns to s ociety . The r e f o r e , Fe d eral , s ta t e , and local
governments have s et down a n d enforce ce r tain mode s o f b ehavior on
the part of recip ients wh ich wil l preve n t the abu s e of public assistance laws and wo rk to mov e , whe nev er poss ible , r ec ip ients up from
welfare to more prod uctive pla ces in soc ie t y. Philosophically, these
enforced behavioral modes, or welfare ru l es, are s e t down not only to
help those persons on th e welfare rolls, but also to limit the burden
they place on the more fortunate, more productive members of the society.
The Social Security Act deals with both the Federal social security
system and the Federal contributory and management aspects of public
assistance .

Benefits for severely disabled
widows age 50 and over paying
from 500/4 to 71% depending on
age at onset of disability.
Comment: Both sets of benefit increases actuarially sound under the tax
increase schedUle in the respective bills.
However , the urban and suburban beneficiary po~ulation has experienced the phenomena of combined inflation, population explosion,
and resultant property tax increases. One but need look at the mortgage foreclosures in reti rement areas such as Dade County, Florida,
to realize the impact of this combination on persons with fixe d
incomes. It has outstripped the planning a nd saving of much of the
beneficiary population.
Near adequate benefit increases help not only their recipients but the
communities in which they live and the businesses and individuals
t hose communities tax. Actuarially sound increases:
(a) reduce
welfare payment at the local level, (b) reduce existing welfare
c aseloads, (c) prevent new processing of welfare clients , and (d)
h elp maintain the aged, the disabled, and the widowed in viable
economic units that are tax- paying and not tax- taking .

�In addition to the above, the House bill included provisions not

(a)
develop employment programs for AFDC families where
appropriate;
(b)
provide day care for AFDC mothers working or training;
(c)
provide family planning services;
(d)
attempt to determine paternity and obtain support from
the father;
(e)
inform courts of unsuitable homes, one criterion of which
is a parent who refused employment or training; and
(f)
freeze the rate of child dependency due to absence
of parent as of January 1967 for purposes of Federal
matching.
Comment : The major purpose of the House bill is to increase
employment and training of welfare recipients and thereby reduce
p r ogram costs . The House approach would:
1 . Combine responsibility for payment , social services, training ,
and j ob placement within one agency. A single agency and , more
practically , a single caseworker, would have the right to wi thhold
payment if a family does not take what that caseworker deems
" appropri ate 11 action with regard to training , employment , famil y
plan ni ng , and liv i ng arrangement.
2. Dup licate g ove r nment functions through the placement of

3. Economic impact of Corrununity training programs. The House
Ways and Means Corrunittee estimates a saving by 1972 of $130 million
"for persons trained who become self-sufficient". This is 7%
of the 1972 program cost, indicating a reduction in the rolls of ·
approximately that number of recipients. However, that same
Corrunittee estimates that the 1972 cost of day-care for children
whose mothers are in the work and training program will.be $470
million and that the program itself will cost another $270 million.
This $695 million is more than five times the savings in welfare
payments.
4.
Increase in state and local costs by imposing an AFDC ceiling.
Freezing proportionately the number of AFDC children eligible for
Federal matching monies does not take into account either the possibility of changing economic conditions or heavy in-migration into
certain states. Either occurance would result in the states being
forced to bear the entire burden of increased AFDC costs. The alternatives to increased burden on the taxpayer are to make eligibility
requirements more stringent or to lower benefits even further.
The prime victim in either situation is the child of the AFDC
family and, ultimately, the society he enters.

�Comment: The House amendments J aise eligibility requirements and
lower service standards. By setting eligibility at cash payment levels
instead of required services levels, the bill denies coverage to those
marginal poor who are functioning as independent economic units except for medical care support. This increases the probability of
their going on welfare roles at the time of their first medical crisis.
By removing current service requirements, the bill allows elimination of
such items as physician services and in-patient hospital care. This
means that cities and states th3.t already offer these services are
penalized for their progress by forcing them to carry the full cost
of such services. Although the Federal government would save by these
amendments, the cities would still have to provide adequate medical
services. The reduction in Federal funds and required supplement through
city funds in New York City alone would be $70 million in fiscal 1 69.
Communities penalized in other progressive states would include those
in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky,
Maryland, Michigan, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island
and Wisconsin.

FACTS AND COMMENTS ON THE MAJOR PROVISIONS
OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY AMENDMENTS OF 1967
INTRODUCTION:
The following is a comparison of the Administration's proposals for
amending the Social Security Act and the amendments to that Act passed
by the House of Representatives.
This analysis will be limited to major issues and policy variables
in the areas of social security, medicare, medicaid, and public
assistance.
Social Security and Public Assistance Background: Social Security
constitutes a wage-related income insurance program to guard against
loss of income due to death, disability or old age of a wage earner.
Benefits are the right of the wage earner, his spouse, or his children,
depending on the need situation of any one or combination of two
or more possible beneficiaries. Benefits are paid as a matter of right
and specific taxes are collected in a relatively progressive manner to
fund the program. The tax does not take, nor does the benefit structure
give, an amount totally adequate to meet all the financial needs
generated through death, disability or old-age. It does, however,
provide a basic "floor of protection" on which the majority of the
American people can build a financially secure future.
Public Assistance, has neither the contributory nor the earned right
aspects of social security. It is paid on the basis of need defined
by statute and administrative regulation. The cecipients of
public assistance are such because of the conscience of, rather than
their contributions to society. Therefore, Federal, state, and local
governments have set down and enforce certain modes of behavior on
the part of recipients which will prevent the abuse of public assis-
tance laws and work to move, whenever possible, recipients up from
welfare to more productive places in society. Philosophically, these
enforced behavioral modes, or welfare rules, are set down not only to
help those persons on the welfare rolls, but also to limit the burden
they place on the more fortunate, more productive members of the society.
The Social Security Act deals with both the Federal social security
system and the Federal contributory and management aspects of public
assistance.

husband's death. age at onset of disability.
Comment: Both sets of benefit increases actuarially sound under the tax
increase schedule in the respective bills.
However, the urban and suburban heneficiary population has experi-
enced the phenomena of combined inflation, population explosion,
and resultant property tax increases. One but need look at the mort-
gage foreclosures in retirement areas such as Dade County, Florida,
to realize the impact of this combination on persons with fixed
incomes. It has outstripped the planning and saving of much of the
beneficiary population.
Near adequate benefit increases help not only their recipients but the
communities in which they live and the businesses and individuals
those communities tax. Actuarially sound increases: (a) reduce
welfare payment at the local level, (b) reduce existing welfare
caseloads, (c) prevent new processing of welfare clients, and (d)
help maintain the aged, the disabled, and the widowed in viable
economic units that are tax-paying and not tax-taking.

Comment: Lack of a provision means taxpayers (for municipal. hospitals
and payers of insurance premiums (for all hospitals) carry the de-
preciation loads for medicare recipients. The Administration pro-
posal provides both a realistic overhead loading mechanism and an
incentive to apply modern accounting and cost effectiveness tech-
niques in an area which has long burdened cities, employers, and
others who must pay for hospital services.

Comment: The major purpose of the House bill is to increase
employment and training of welfare recipients and thereby reduce
program costs. The House approach would:
1. Combine responsibility for payment, social services, training,
and job placement within one agency. A single agency and, more
practically, a single caseworker, would have the right to withhold
payment if a family does not take what that caseworker deems
"appropriate" action with regard to training, employment, family
planning, and living arrangement.
2. Duplicate government functions through the placement of
responsibility for training in an agency unprepared to handle
it. The Welfare Administration has run limited training programs
for welfare clients in the past, but always with an enrollment of
less than 50,000. Under the House passed bill it will be manda-
tory by 1969 for that organization and its state counterparts
to be prepared to handle 500,000 trainees annually. A more prac-
tical approach would be to add a new area of emphasis to on-
going programs of the Manpower Administration of the Labor Depart-
ment than to build a whole new bureaucracy.
3. Economic impact of Community training programs. The House
Ways and Means Committee estimates a saving by 1972 of $130 million
"for persons trained who become self-sufficient". This is 7%
of the 1972 program cost, indicating a reduction in the rolls of
approximately that number of recipients. However, that same
Committee estimates that the 1972 cost of day-care for children

ANALYSIS OF PUBLIC WELFARE PROVISIONS
of
HR 12080
The public welfare provisions of H.R. 12080 are intended, according to the House Ways and Means Committee Report {House Report #544),
to reduce welfare rolls by encouraging self-support and by reducing
the incidence of illegiti~acy. The Bill is a marked departure from
the Administration Bill, H.R. 5710, which began a modest· move toward
implementing the recommendations of the 1966 Public Welfare Advisory
Council, "Having the Power, We Have the Duty."*
·
The major provisions of H.R. 12080 can be divided into the following
areas:
WORK PROVISIONS
In order to receive federal matching funds for AFDC, state agencies
(1) must require that out-of-school youth over 16 and all adults in
AFDC families register for employment and accept any bona fide
offer of work that they are able to "engage in," even if wages fall
below legal minimums; (2) must investigate the employability of
every individual in the AFDC caseload at least once yearly; (3) must
provide community work and training programs {Section 409 of the
Social Security Act, as amended in 1962) throughout the state; and
(4) must require that out-of-school youth and adults in AFDC
families participate in such work and training programs when employment is not avai lable.
Penalties for refusal to work or en a e in trainin
without due cause:
1
AFDC payments may be denied or suspended, o r (2) payments may continue in behalf of children
only {i.e. no payments to adults) if {a) they are paid to
an "interes ted party" who will assure that money is spent
only in behalf o f children; or {b) they are converted to
vendor rather than cash payments. Some experts interpret
the Bill to mean that "refusal to work" is synonymous with
child neglect, and that juvenile courts might be p r essur ed
to use this as the sole reason f o r a finding of neglect ,
which in turn, would result in the child's removal from
home. This is not what the Bill says, but experience with
public assistance laws and regulations shows that they are
exploited in some jurisdictions to control fami lies through
threat of separation .
The major recommendations of the Advisory Council Report:
(1) extend aid to all needy persons, irrespective of family
composition, employment, etc. through one program; (2) set a
national standard of assistance, adjusted only to reflect regional variations in consumer price indexes; (3) establish a
legally enforceable right to certain basic social services;
(4) finance the program by establishing a reasonable and equitable state share yearly, and meeting all other costs through
federal funds.
�( 2)
Safeguards:
(1) for the first time, HEW has responsibility
for defining when an adult "is available" for employment,
i.e . HEW must set standards (e . g. health, child care arrangements, etc.) for determining who is employable; (2) day care
for children must be assured for employed AFDC mothers or
those in training programs .
(Federal standards for day care
are provided).
(3) 30 day emergency assistance can be provided when assistance is denied .
Relevant facts: A number of states require that assistance
be denied or discontinued whenever employment is available,
and some others deny aid to ~mployable people whether or not
work is available in the area. These provisions are particularly geared toward seasonal labor . The practive of encouraging AFDC mothers to work is widespread, and aid has always
been denied in some jurisdictions when welfare workers consider the adult caretaker of children employable. Experience
to date with work and training programs provides evidence
that many older AFDC youth and adults are not readily employable (about 80 percent), and that to make labor force participation feasible, considerable dental, medical and social
services, basic education, and job training are necessary.
Day care is in very short supply in the U. S., and it is unlikely that such services can be organized sufficiently
promptly to protect children if mothers are quickly forced
into work or training. One important chronic reason for high
relief rolls is the scarcity of unskilled jobs, so it is
possible that H. R. 12080 can only accomplish its self-support
goals if the federal government also embarks on a full employment policy, a public works program, or their equivalent.
Only 12 states now have statewide community work and training
programs, and there is evidence that many states will have
difficulty organizing effective statewide programs quickly.
ILLEGITIMACY
H. R. 12080 intends to reduce the incidence o f illegitimacy by
(1) reducing the coverage of absent parent families by AFDC (see
p.5 for detailed discussion); (2) encouraging the removal of
children from neglectful homes (illegitimacy is cited as particular evidence of neglect; (3) e x tending the circumstances in
which foster home care can be reimbursed from federal funds, and
increasing federal matching rates; and (4) requiring states to
provide statewide family planning services to be brought to the
attention of all AFDC mothers or mothers likely to become el igible
for AFDC.
Safeguards:
planning.
Mothers are not to be forced to accept family
�(3)
Relevant facts:
The proportion of illegitimate children
receiving AFDC is estimated at about 20 percent and has
increased in recent years, from 14 percent in 1959. All
states have protective statutes in which neglect is defined
to include promiscuity and other immoral behavior of parents.
Courts have insisted, typically, that a finding of neglect
rests upon tangible evidence of gross neglect, and seldom
view out-of-wedlock births as sufficient alone. Foster home
care is expensive, and at present states pay most of the
cost. They have long urged federal participation in these
costs. At present, only 26 states have AFDC-foster care
programs, covering only 7,900 children. Longitudinal
studies show that when families are broken up by the removal of children or the imprisonment of parents for neglect,
the majority do not reunite, partially because of the scarcity
of social workers to help in the process. The majority of
illegitimate children are supported privately, and there is
no factual evidence that treating AFDC children as a special
group could reduce the overall incidence of illegitimacy; nor
is there any evidence that threatening to deny aid or to
remove children, or carrying out the threat, reduces the
incidence of illegitimacy.
AFDC-UP (UNEMPLOYED PARENTS PROGRAM}
H.R . 12080 establishes a federal definition of "unemployed parent" ,
which was previously the province of states . It includes only
fathers, · requires a significant attachment to the labor force ,
imposes a waiting period of 30 days before unemployed fathers
could apply for assistance for their families , and e x cludes all
famil i es receiving unemployment compensation.
Relevant facts:
This definition would cause a cut-back in
the caseload of all 22 state AFDC - UP p r ograms now in e x istence . At p r esent AFDC covers only about 1/5 of the families

NON- SUPPORT PROVISI ONS
H.R . 12 0 80 requires that s tate a genci e s o rganize and i mplement
programs t o establish p a t e rnity o f illegitima t e childre n and
secure support from the ir fath e rs, a nd impleme nt programs to
secure support from fathers of abandoned childre n in whose
behalf an AFDC grant is sought or given. To this end, federal
public welfare funds are to b e us e d to match the costs of n e cessary law enforcement and court services.
�( 4)
Relevant facts: States have previously been required to
notify law enforcement officials whenever aid was requested
in behalf of an abandoned child. Previously, public welfare
funds have not been available to match the costs of law
enforcement agencies or courts, nor has HEW felt it proper
for public welfare agencies to take over law enforcement
responsibilities. However, welfare workers have always
been responsible for verifying and investigating the ability
of relatives to support famil~es applying for or receiving
AFDC, and this task commonly preoccupies a large share of
the workers' time. Vigorous law enforcement does increase
support payments; it also discourages families from applying
for public aid; and it puts an additional emotional strain
on families already severely pressured from many directions.
WORK INCENTIVES
H.R. 12080 requires that all states disregard all earnings of
AFDC youth under 16 years of age, part-time earnings of school
youth between 16 and 21, and the first $30, as well as 1/3 of
the remaining portion of monthly earnings of adults, whenever
agencies are determining the size of the grant for eligible
families.
Relevant facts: Both the ESEA (Elementary and Secondary
Education Act) and the EOA provide that for persons engaged
in projects funded under those Acts, and also receiving
public assistance, the first $85 plus one- half of the excess
over $85 monthly shall be disregarded for purposes of determining eligibility for public assistance. H.R. 5710 provided
for "disregarding" $50 monthly of the earnings of children and
adults, subject to a family maximum of $150 monthly. Even
with this more generous amount, there is an incentive for
AFDC families to engage in ESEA or EOA projects rather than
to enter the regular labor force.
Incentives of this type have proven effective in enabling a nd
encouraging employment. The disregarding of earned income
provision in H.R. 12080 is applicable only to persons who
already are rece iving assistance. Thus, applicants who went
to work before appiying for as sistance have all of their
income and resources taken into account, while families who
have a member who goes t o work from the assistance rolls
have their earned income disregarded in the stated amounts.
It is, therefore likely, that the provisions could discourage
work among potential applicants for AFDC, thus serving to
increase the caseload in two ways.
�(5)
SOCIAL SERVICES
H.R. 12080 transfers child welfare services in behalf of AFDC
families or families likely to need AFDC from Title V to Title
IV of the Social Security Act, and requires that state agencies
establish family planning and day care programs, as well as other
services intended to enhance the capacity for self-support and
to reduce the incidence of illegitimacy. Until July 1, 1969,·
the Bill increases federal matching rates for such services from
75 to 85 percent. Services may be organized by public welfare
or purchased from voluntary and other agencies, and still receive
federal matching.
·
Advantages: While cost accounting problems will be legion,
transferring such services to Title IV (when they are provided to AFDC families or those l i kely to need AFDC) greatly
increa ses f e deral funds for statewide social service s, s i nce
Title IV grants-in-aid are open-ended and have more generous
matching features. However, this change will result in more
services only if states are willing and able to raise their
share of the cost initially, and since H.R. 12080 i mposes
othe r financial burdens on the states, they may not locate
fund s fo r this purpose . Purchase of s e rvice s has t he p o t ential for bringing a much wide r scope of quality s e rvice s to
very poor families, assuming states can afford to meet the
initial cost .
Da nger s : Associating social s e r v i ces and financial aid
i ncreases the l ikelihood that servic e s wi ll be us e d t o
con t r o l fami l ies , f o r c e t h e m i n t o t h e l a bor mark et, etc .
rather in the wide varie t y of cons t ructive ways they a re
i ntended for.
In August 1967 HEW announced a reorgani z a t ion
which s e para ted assistance payments from social services i n
line wi th the convi cti o n of ma ny e xperts that mi xing the
two harmed a n d limited both . The Adv i sory Coun cil Re por t
recomme nded t h a t a ll p e ople h a v e a legally ertfo r c e able right
to r e c e ive c e rta in bas i c s o cia l ser vic es . The Re port was

Co unci l c ontemp l a ted t hat s erv i c e s would be o rganize d o n a
community- wide b asis, r ath er than f o r AFDC o r o t h er p oo r
families as might we ll occur under H. R . 12 0 80.
CEILING ON ABSENT PARENT SEGMENT OF AFDC CASELOAD
H. R. 1 2 080 prohi bits the use of federa l matching f unds in beha l f
of a b sent parent fami l ies* in e x cess o f the number i n state AFDC
caseloads a s o f J a nuary 1967 , except a s the i nc reased cas eload
reflects the increased gen eral p opu lation in states . States
would still be required to assist all eligible families, but when
the number exceeded the ceiling, federal matching would no longer
be available.
�( 6)
Relevant facts: Every year more children are being raised
by mothers alone, so this segment of child population is
growing more rapidly than the child population, generally,
or the general population. See Mollie Orshansky, SOCIAL
SECURITY BULLETIN, April 1966. Cutting off federal matching shifts the expense of supporting new eligible families
to the states as soon as ceilin s are exceeded (which most
are by now. Unless states can promptly appropriate additional funds, two adaptations are inevitable: states will
reduce their standards of need (the cut-off point that
separates needy from other families) so that present funds
can cover the rising caseload, or accomplish the same result
by decreasing the percentage .of the standard actually paid
to families; secondly, they will take steps to restrict
eligibility in order to reduce families of all types in the
caseload, e.g. instead of following former federal leadership by extending AFDC to school youth up to 21 years of
age, they may well reduce age. Since the intent of AFDC is
to support very poor families so that children can remain in
school, and have a reasonable chance of securing the food,
clothes, lodging, and other necessities of life that they
need to grow into productive, effective adults, any shift
in federal financing that limits the program without providing equivalent alternatives must be viewed in the longrange context. H.R. 12080 provides that states can shift
some general assistance cases to AFDC, but statistically
this number wili be insignificant as compared with the
effect of the ceiling on absent parent families. H.R. 12080
is unlike most SSA amendments in providing no relief to
states in terms of higher federal matching for assistance
payments, and since payments are low ($36.95 per person
monthly), and living costs rise, states must also make
adjustments in this area unless they are to fall even
further behind the inadequate levels of payment now existing.
While federal matching in H.R. 12080 improves remarkably
in some service areas and includes others for the first time
in the open-ended AFDC reimbursement formulae, as well as
covering additional children from general assistance and
f o ster home situations , thus freeing some state funds, the
new requirements will force many stat e s to spend money for
purposes they have hitherto neglected. They may be tempted
t o lower standards of need or to pay lower percentages of
thei r standards unless they are among the fortunate few
where decreases in child population can be anticipated.
An "absent parent family" may be a family in which the father
is deceased or disabled. Such families would not and do not
normally p roduce additional children eligible for assistance.
In the main, therefore, this p r ovision is directed toward
illigitimate children and the t e rm, in this sense, becomes a
legal euphemism.
�( 7)
To prevent this possibility, H.R. 12080 would have to
include provisions to prohibit states from lowering
standards of need or the percentages of their standards
actually paid to families, and require that they maintain
at least the present ratio of the standard to some given
cost of living index.
Freezing the absent father caseload will discourage states from
extending age limits in AFDC for school children up to 21 years
of age, providing services to more "potentially dependent" families, or otherwise following federal leadership in widening
eligibility. Conversely, it may encourage them to restrict
eligibility .
Over the years federal leadership and the concern of the
U.S. Congress have resulted in extending eligibility for
assistance and services, so that family breakdown, continued dependence, and other social ills would not be
encouraged by AFDC. Although some states were well in
advance and others followed promptly, many lag in adopting
possible extensions.
Whenever definitions or other provisions cut across the
entire caseload, and a ceiling is placed on the most
populous type of family in the caseload, the ceiling
itself will act as a strong deterrent to extending the
program. Age, e x emptions of earned income, ~rvices to
"potentially dependent" families all fall into this
category as do other provisions. Each would serve, if
adopted, to increase all types of families in the caseload.
Indeed, so far as exemptions of part of earned
income are concerned, it seemsinherently illogical to add
a requirement that canmthelp but increase the caseload and
to fix a ceiling on that caseload simultaneously. But even
with the optional e x tensions, presumably Congress felt
these were desirable preventive steps and wished states
to follow its leadership. Since most states will now have
e x ceeded the January 1967 ceiling, they may shortly be
thinking of restricting , not e xtending, elibility . If
this happens, the caseload may soon include few older
youth, and alternative national programs will have to be
devis ed to assist y outh in securing the very educati o n al
and employment p r eparation that H.R. 12080 so emphasizes.
It should be pointed out that there is no magic in recipient
rates as of January 1967. AFDC has always covered only a
fraction o f very poor children in the U.S. Nor is there
any magic in the numbers of chi ldren in the AFDC caseload
by reason of their dependency or family composition. Some
states made great effort to relieve childhood poverty whatever its cause; others did not; some managed to be quite
�( 8)
selective, preferring certain types of families to others.
A state like Mississippi with its high recipient rates will
suffer less with the "freeze". But children in Georgia,
Arkansas, South Carolina, and Texas, for instance, where
recipient rates are low and the incidence of childhood
poverty high, will suffer remarkably.
On September 30, 1966 only Arkansas among the above stat~s
had extended eligibility to children up to 21 in the event
that they were in certain types of schools. The states on
that date that had no immediate plan or capacity to implement either the 1964 or 1965 federal age extensions for
school youth included Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Minnesota, Mississippi,
Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, Oregon, Puerto
Rico, South Carolina, and Texas. Since such children comprise the largest share of AFDC caseloads, the amount o f
money involved will be very large.

ANALYSIS OF PUBLIC WELFARE PROVISIONS
of
HR 12080
The public welfare provisions of H.R. 12080 are intended, accord-
ing to the House Ways and Means Committee Report (House Report #544),
to reduce welfare rolls by encouraging self-support and by reducing
the incidence of illegitimacy. The Bill is a marked departure from
the Administration Bill, H.R. 5710, which began a modest move toward
implementing the recommendations of the 1966 Public Welfare Advisory
Council, “Having the Power, We Have the Duty."*
The major provisions of H.R. 12080 can be divided into the following
areas:
WORK PROVISIONS
In order to receive federal matching funds for AFDC, state agencies
(1) must require that out-of-school youth over 16 and all adults in
AFDC families register for employment and accept any bona fide
offer of work that they are able to "engage in," even if wages fall
below legal minimums; (2) must investigate the employability of
every individual in the AFDC caseload at least once yearly; (3) must
provide community work and training programs (Section 409 of the
Social Security Act, as amended in 1962) throughout the state; and
(4) must require that out-of-school youth and adults in AFDC
families participate in such work and training programs when employ-
ment is not available.
Penalties for refusal to work or engage in training programs
without due cause: (1) AFDC payments may be denied or sus-
pended; or (2) payments may continue in behalf of children
only (i.e. no payments to adults) if (a) they are paid to
an "interested party" who will assure that money is spent
only in behalf of children; or (b) they are converted to
vendor rather than cash payments. Some experts interpret
the Bill to mean that "refusal to work" is synonymous with
child neglect, and that juvenile courts might be pressured
to use this as the sole reason for a finding of neglect,
which in turn, would result in the child's removal from
home. This is not what the Bill says, but experience with
public assistance laws and regulations shows that they are
exploited in some jurisdictions to control families through
threat of separation.
* The major recommendations of the Advisory Council Report:
(1) extend aid to all needy persons, irrespective of family
composition, employment, etc. through one program; (2) set a
national standard of assistance, adjusted only to reflect re-
gional variations in consumer price indexes; (3) establish a
legally enforceable right to certain basic social services;
(4) finance the program by establishing a reasonable and equi-
table state share yearly, and meeting all other costs through
federal funds.
(2)
Safeguards: (1) for the first time, HEW has responsibility
for defining when an adult "is available" for employment,
i.e. HEW must set standards (e.g. health, child care arrange-
ments, etc.) for determining who is employable; (2) day care
for children must be assured for employed AFDC mothers or
those in training programs. (Federal standards for day care
are provided). (3) 30 day emergency assistance can be pro-
vided when assistance is denied.
Relevant facts: A number of states require that assistance
be denied or discontinued whenever employment is available,
and some others deny aid to employable people whether or not
work is available in the area. These provisions are particu-
larly geared toward seasonal labor. The practive of encour-
aging AFDC mothers to work is widespread, and aid has always
been denied in some jurisdictions when welfare workers con-
Sider the adult caretaker of children employable. Experience
to date with work and training programs provides evidence
that many older AFDC youth and adults are not readily employ-
able (about 80 percent), and that to make labor force parti-
Clipation feasible, considerable dental, medical and social
services, basic education, and job training are necessary.
Day care is in very short supply in the U. S., and it is un-
likely that such services can be organized sufficiently
promptly to protect children if mothers are quickly forced
into work or training. One important chronic reason for high
relief rolls is the scarcity of unskilled jobs, so it is
possible that H. R. 12080 can only accomplish its self-support
goals if the federal government also embarks on a full employ-
ment policy, a public works program, or their equivalent.
Only 12 states now have statewide community work and training
programs, and there is evidence that many states will have
difficulty organizing effective statewide programs quickly.
ILLEGITIMACY
H. R. 12080 intends to reduce the incidence of illegitimacy by
(1) reducing the coverage of absent parent families by AFDC (see
p-5 for detailed discussion); (2) encouraging the removal of
children from neglectful homes (illegitimacy is cited as parti-
cular evidence of neglect; (3) extending the circumstances in
which foster home care can be reimbursed from federal funds, and
increasing federal matching rates; and (4) requiring states to
provide statewide family planning services to be brought to the
attention of all AFDC mothers or mothers likely to become eligible
for AFDC.
Safeguards: Mothers are not to be forced to accept family
planning.
(3)
Relevant facts: The proportion of illegitimate children
receiving AFDC is estimated at about 20 percent and has
increased in recent years, from 14 percent in 1959. All
states have protective statutes in which neglect is defined
to include promiscuity and other immoral behavior of parents.
Courts have insisted, typically, that a finding of neglect
rests upon tangible evidence of gross neglect, and seldom
view out-of-wedlock births as sufficient alone. Foster home
care is expensive, and at present states pay most of the
cost. They have long urged federal participation in these
costs. At present, only 26 states have AFDC-foster care
programs, covering only 7,900 children. Longitudinal
studies show that when families are broken up by the re-
moval of children or the imprisonment of parents for neglect,
the majority do not reunite, partially because of the scarcity
of social workers to help in the process. The majority of
illegitimate children are supported privately, and there is
no factual evidence that treating AFDC children as a special
group could reduce the overall incidence of illegitimacy; nor
is there any evidence that threatening to deny aid or to
remove children, or carrying out the threat, reduces the
incidence of illegitimacy.
AFDC-UP (UNEMPLOYED PARENTS PROGRAM)
H.R. 12080 establishes a federal definition of "unemployed parent",
which was previously the province of states. It includes only
fathers, requires a significant attachment to the labor force,
imposes a waiting period of 30 days before unemployed fathers
could apply for assistance for their families, and excludes all
families receiving unemployment compensation.
Relevant facts: This definition would cause a cut-back in
the caseload of all 22 state AFDC-UP programs now in exist-
ence. At present AFDC covers only about 1/5 of the families
below the poverty line of $3,400 for an urban family of
four. The 1966 Public Welfare Advisory Council Report
suggested expanding coverage to all needy families, irrespec-
tive of employment. H. R. 5710, the Administration Bill
recommended merely that AFDC-UP be made permanent.
NON-SUPPORT PROVISIONS
H.R. 12080 requires that state agencies organize and implement
programs to establish paternity of illegitimate children and
secure support from their fathers, and implement programs to
secure support from fathers of abandoned children in whose
behalf an AFDC grant is sought or given. To this end, federal
public welfare funds are to be used to match the costs of ne-
cessary law enforcement and court services.
(4)
Relevant facts: States have previously been required to
notify law enforcement officials whenever aid was requested
in behalf of an abandoned child. Previously, public welfare
funds have not been available to match the costs of law
enforcement agencies or courts, nor has HEW felt it proper
for public welfare agencies to take over law enforcement
responsibilities. However, welfare workers have always
been responsible for verifying and investigating the ability
of relatives to support families applying for or receiving
AFDC, and this task commonly preoccupies a large share of
the workers' time. Vigorous law enforcement does increase
Support payments; it also discourages families from applying
for public aid; and it puts an additional emotional strain
on families already severely pressured from many directions.
WORK INCENTIVES
H.R. 12080 requires that all states disregard all earnings of
AFDC youth under 16 years of age, part-time earnings of school
youth between 16 and 21, and the first $30, as well as 1/3 of
the remaining portion of monthly earnings of adults, whenever
agencies are determining the size of the grant for eligible
families.
Relevant facts: Both the ESEA (Elementary and Secondary
Education Act) and the EOA provide that for persons engaged
in projects funded under those Acts, and also receiving
public assistance, the first $85 plus one-half of the excess
over $85 monthly shall be disregarded for purposes of deter-
mining eligibility for public assistance. H.R. 5710 provided
for "disregarding" $50 monthly of the earnings of children and
adults, subject to a family maximum of $150 monthly. Even
with this more generous amount, there is an incentive for
AFDC families to engage in ESEA or EOA projects rather than
to enter the regular labor force.
Incentives of this type have proven effective in enabling and
encouraging employment. The disregarding of earned income
provision in H.R. 12080 is applicable only to persons who
already are receiving assistance. Thus, applicants who went
to work before applying for assistance have all of their
income and resources taken into account, while families who
have a member who goes to work from the assistance rolls
have their earned income disregarded in the stated amounts.
It is, therefore likely, that the provisions could discourage
work among potential applicants for AFDC, thus serving to
increase the caseload in two ways.
(5)
SOCIAL SERVICES
H.R. 12080 transfers child welfare services in behalf of AFDC
families or families likely to need AFDC from Title V to Title
IV of the Social Security Act, and requires that state agencies
establish family planning and day care programs, as well as other
services intended to enhance the capacity for self-support and
to reduce the incidence of illegitimacy. Until July 1, 1969,
the Bill increases federal matching rates for such services from
75 to 85 percent. Services may be organized by public welfare
or purchased from voluntary and other agencies, and still receive
federal matching.
Advantages: While cost accounting problems will be legion,
transferring such services to Title IV (when they are pro-
vided to AFDC families or those likely to need AFDC) greatly
increases federal funds for statewide social services, since
Title IV grants-in-aid are open-ended and have more generous
matching features. However, this change will result in more
services only if states are willing and able to raise their
share of the cost initially, and since H.R. 12080 imposes
other financial burdens on the states, they may not locate
funds for this purpose. Purchase of services has the poten-
tial for bringing a much wider scope of quality services to
very poor families, assuming states can afford to meet the
initial cost.
Dangers: Associating social services and financial aid
increases the likelihood that services will be used to
control families, force them into the labor market, etc.
rather in the wide variety of constructive ways they are
intended for. In August 1967 HEW announced a reorganization
which separated assistance payments from social services in
line with the conviction of many experts that mixing the
two harmed and limited both. The Advisory Council Report
recommended that all people have a legally enforceable right
to receive certain basic social services. The Report was
moot on the guestion of purchase of services. However, the
Council contemplated that services would be organized on a
community-wide basis, rather than for AFDC or other poor
families as might well occur under H.R. 12080.
CEILING ON ABSENT PARENT SEGMENT OF AFDC CASELOAD
H.R. 12080 prohibits the use of federal matching funds in behalf
of absent parent families* in excess of the number in state AFDC
caseloads as of January 1967, except as the increased caseload
reflects the increased general population in states. States
would still be required to assist all eligible families, but when
the number exceeded the ceiling, federal matching would no longer
be available.
(6)
Relevant facts: Every year more children are being raised
by mothers alone, so this segment of child population is
growing more rapidly than the child population, generally,
or the general population. See Mollie Orshansky, SOCIAL
SECURITY BULLETIN, April 1966. Cutting off federal match-
ing shifts the expense of supporting new eligible families
to the states as soon as ceilings are exceeded (which most
are by now). Unless states can promptly appropriate addi-
tional funds, two adaptations are inevitable: states will
reduce their standards of need (the cut-off point that
separates needy from other families) so that present funds
can cover the rising caseload, or accomplish the same result
by decreasing the percentage of the standard actually paid
to families; secondly, they will take steps to restrict
eligibility in order to reduce families of all types in the
caseload, e.g. instead of following former federal leader-
ship by extending AFDC to school youth up to 21 years of
age, they may well reduce age. Since the intent of AFDC is
to support very poor families so that children can remain in
school, and have a reasonable chance of securing the food,
clothes, lodging, and other necessities of life that they
need to grow into productive, effective adults, any shift
in federal financing that limits the program without pro-
viding equivalent alternatives must be viewed in the long-
range context. H.R. 12080 provides that states can shift
some general assistance cases to AFDC, but statistically
this number will be insignificant as compared with the
effect of the ceiling on absent parent families. H.R. 12080
is unlike most SSA amendments in providing no relief to
states in terms of higher federal matching for assistance
payments, and since payments are low ($36.95 per person
monthly), and living costs rise, states must also make
adjustments in this area unless they are to fall even
further behind the inadequate levels of payment now exist-
ing.
While federal matching in H.R. 12080 improves remarkably
in some service areas and includes others for the first time
in the open-ended AFDC reimbursement formulae, as well as
covering additional children from general assistance and
foster home situations, thus freeing some state funds, the
new requirements will force many states to spend money for
purposes they have hitherto neglected. They may be tempted
to lower standards of need or to pay lower percentages of
their standards unless they are among the fortunate few
where decreases in child population can be anticipated.
*An "absent parent family" may be a family in which the father
is deceased or disabled. Such families would not and do not
normally produce additional children eligible for assistance.
In the main, therefore, this provision is directed toward
illigitimate children and the term, in this sense, becomes a
legal euphemism.
(7)
To prevent this possibility, H.R. 12080 would have to
include provisions to prohibit states from lowering
standards of need or the percentages of their standards
actually paid to families, and require that they maintain
at least the present ratio of the standard to some given
cost of living index.
Freezing the absent father caseload will discourage states from
extending age limits in AFDC for school children up to 21 years
of age, providing services to more "potentially dependent" fami-
lies, or otherwise following federal leadership in widening
eligibility. Conversely, it may encourage them to restrict
eligibility.
Over the years federal leadership and the concern of the
U.S. Congress have resulted in extending eligibility for
assistance and services, so that family breakdown, con-
tinued dependence, and other social ills would not be
encouraged by AFDC. Although some states were well in
advance and others followed promptly, many lag in adopting
possible extensions.
Whenever definitions or other provisions cut across the
entire caseload, and a ceiling is placed on the most
populous type of family in the caseload, the ceiling
itself will act as a strong deterrent to extending the
program. Age, exemptions of earned income, services to
"potentially dependent" families all fall into this
category as do other provisions. Each would serve, if
adopted, to increase all types of families in the case-
load. Indeed, so far as exemptions of part of earned
income are concerned, it seemsinherently illogical to add
a requirement that cannothelp but increase the caseload and
to fix a ceiling on that caseload simultaneously. But even
with the optional extensions, presumably Congress felt
these were desirable preventive steps and wished states
to follow its leadership. Since most states will now have
exceeded the January 1967 ceiling, they may shortly be
thinking of restricting, not extending, elibility. If
this happens, the caseload may soon include few older
youth, and alternative national programs will have to be
devised to assist youth in securing the very educational
and employment preparation that H.R. 12080 so emphasizes.
It should be pointed out that there is no magic in recipient
rates as of January 1967. AFDC has always covered only a
fraction of very poor children in the U.S. Nor is there
any magic in the numbers of children in the AFDC caseload
by reason of their dependency or family composition. Some
states made great effort to relieve childhood poverty what-
ever its cause; others did not; some managed to be quite
(8)
selective, preferring certain types of families to others.
A state like Mississippi with its high recipient rates will
suffer less with the "freeze". But children in Georgia,
Arkansas, South Carolina, and Texas, for instance, where
recipient rates are low and the incidence of childhood
poverty high, will suffer remarkably.
On September 30, 1966 only Arkansas among the above states
had extended eligibility to children up to 21 in the event
that they were in certain types of schools. The states on
that date that had no immediate plan or capacity to imple-
ment either the 1964 or 1965 federal age extensions for
school youth included Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Dela-
ware, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Minnesota, Mississippi,
Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, Oregon, Puerto
Rico, South Carolina, and Texas. Since such children com-
prise the largest share of AFDC caseloads, the amount of
money involved will be very large.

Steering <;ommittee Co-chairmen: Andrew Heiskell/ A. Philip Randolph
November 15, 1967
Dear Steering Committee Member:
At the last meeting of the Steering Committee, it was
suggested that the Coalition should seriously consider
taking a position in opposition to several of the Social
Security Amendments already approved by the House of
Representatives and now being considered by the Senate.
It was suggested that the House Amendments were not only
contrary to general and accepted standards of welfare aid
and the trend toward raising those standards; but the
Amendments, if passed, would result in local governments
having to assume an increased share of the costs of the
total welfare load.
The Steering Committee decided that an analysis should be
made of the problem and the House's position and distributed to the members. This has been accomplished and a
Fact Sheet and an analysis are enclosed.
We have reviewed the Fact Sheet and analysis and concur
with the Legislative Committee's estimate of the House
amendments as being essentially negative in nature.
Testimony before the Hous e Ways and Means Committee makes
it clear that segments of the Nation are anxious to reverse
the increase in the number of children receiving aid.
However, this concern dealt with approaching the problem at
the cause s rather than limiting the aid.
The main ob jective of Social Security Amendments as
o r iginally introduced was to move families toward financial
inde p e ndence. The Aid to Familie s with Dependent Chi l dren
Program was designe d to k e ep families toge ther . We
b e lie v e the r e s trictions impos e d by the House bill a re
directly contrary to these two goals.

recommendations, we urge you as an individual to take
whatever steps you can to oppose the House Amendments.

will be sent to you as soon as it can be made available.

The main objective of Social Security Amendments as
originally introduced was to move families toward financial
independence. The Aid to Families with Dependent Children
Program was designed to keep families together. We
believe the restrictions imposed by the House bill are
directly contrary to these two goals.

MINUTES OF THE COMMITTEE ON BUDGET AND FINANCE
DECEMBER 7, 1967
New York City, N. Y.
The Committee met in New York City at 2 East 37th Street at
2 P.M., December 7, 1967.
Present were Mr. Asa Spaulding,
Chairman, and Mr. Theodore Schlesinger. Mayor Jerome Cavanagh
was unable to attend because of severe weather. Staff members
present included Mr. Ron Linton, Mr. John Feild and Mr. Alfred
Eisenpreis. The Chairman opened the meeting by asking for a
general review of the progress being made by the Coalition and
the public response to its efforts. The staff and the Committee
then discussed recent activities of the Task Forces on Local
Coalitions, Private Employment, Communications and Housing.
In reviewing the financial report the question was raised concerning the status of the unpaid pledges and the likelihood of their
being received. The staff reported that while there had been
some delay, the outlook appeared favorable and it was hoped that
the projected income would b e realized by the end of January.
Mr. Schlesinge~ asked for clarification regarding the relationship between the Urban Coalition and Urban America and the staff
reported that they were now completely separate organizations
although the earlier relationship had been one of close cooperation between Urban America, the U.S. Conference of Mayors and
the National League of Cities in bringing the Coalition into being.
The Committee nex t turned to the question of future organization
in order to evaluate the tentative future budget prepared by th~
staff. The staff reported on the current discussions, concerning
futur e organization and indicated that major decisions would have
to be made b y the Steering Committee con cer n i ng this in the
immediate futu r e.
In view of this , Mr . Sch lesin ger pr oposed and
Mr. Sp a ulding agreed that it would be mor e appropr iate fo r the
Committ e e at th i s stage to r e c omme n d a n i n t e rim b u dge t t han to
atte mp t a ny r e c omme n dat i ons c on cern i n g a n annua l b udge t.
Accor d ingly, the c ommi ttee a gr e e d t o recommend t o the Steering
Committee a n interim budge t f or a thre e month perio d b e y o nd
January 3 1 at a mi n imum l e v e l o f $5 0 , 00 0 with the same controls
and pro c e dures guiding the operations in order that the Coalition
may complete its further organization during this period . This
will enable the Steering Conunittee to take into account the
recommendations of the various Task Forces and to make som3 judgments concerning the scope of the program .

MINUTES OF THE COMMITTEE ON BUDGET AND FINANCE
DECEMBER 7, 1967
New York City, N. Y.
The Committee met in New York City at 2 East 37th Street at
2 P.M., December 7, 1967. Present were Mr. Asa Spaulding,
Chairman, and Mr. Theodore Schlesinger. Mayor Jerome Cavanagh
was unable to attend because of severe weather. Staff members
present included Mr. Ron Linton, Mr. John Feild and Mr. Alfred
Eisenpreis. The Chairman opened the meeting by asking for a
general review of the progress being made by the Coalition and
the public response to its efforts. The staff and the Committee
then discussed recent activities of the Task Forces on Local
Coalitions, Private Employment, Communications and Housing.
In reviewing the financial report the question was raised concern-
ing the status of the unpaid pledges and the likelihood of their
being received. The staff reported that while there had been
some delay, the outlook appeared favorable and it was hoped that
the projected income would be realized by the end of January.
Mr. Schlesingex asked for clarification regarding the relation-
ship between the Urban Coalition and Urban America and the staff
reported that they were now completely separate organizations
although the earlier relationship had been one of close coopera-
tion between Urban America, the U. S. Conference of Mayors and
the National League of Cities in bringing the Coalition into being.
The Committee next turned to the question of future organization
in order to evaluate the tentative future budget prepared by the
staff. The staff reported on the current discussions, concerning
future organization and indicated that major decisions would have
to be made by the Steering Committee concerning this in the
immediate future. In view of this, Mr. Schlesinger proposed and
Mr. Spaulding agreed that it would be more appropriate for the
Committee at this stage to recommend an interim budget than to
attempt any recommendations concerning an annual budget.
Accordingly, the committee agreed to recommend to the Steering
Committee an interim budget for a three month period beyond
January 31 at a minimum level of $50,000 with the same controls
and procedures guiding the operations in order that the Coalition
may complete its further organization during this period. This
will enable the Steering Committee to take into account the
recommendations of the various Task Forces and to make some judg-
ments concerning the scope of the program.
The committee indicated it could comment that the projected
budget prepared by the staff appeared to be reasonable, and could
be adjusted upward or downward depending upon the decisions made
by the Steering Committee concerning organization.

December 18, 1967
Report of the Committee on Budget and Finance
The Committee has reviewed the financial report for the Coalition's
activities from July 31, 1967 through November 30, 1967. A copy
of the report is attached.
It appears that the experience of the
first four months of operations has produced a substantial degree
of organization approximately within the projected budget approved
by the Steering Committee on August 23. The Committee notes that
the current and projected level of activity through January 31,
1968 will require the fulfillment of the outstanding pledges.
The Committee recommends that the Coalition extend its interim
budget for an additional three months through April 30, 1968 at a
level of at least $50,000 to enable the Coalition and its Task
Forces to complete its organizational phase.
Looking beyond this, the Committee believes that the future annual
budget can only be determined after the Steering Committee has
determined the scope of its program. The projected budget for
operations developed by the staff appears reasonable and can be
increased or decreased based upon the Steering Committee actions
during the next several months · as the organizational phase is
completed.

NEW YORK COALITION TO UNDERTAKE
IMAGINATIVE JOB TRAINING PROGRAM
Mayor John Lindsay announced last week an imaginative new
program to be launched by the New York Coalition with the
financial backing of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey.
Under the $125,000 Standard Oil grant, the city's Police
Department will train men and women from poverty areas for
career employment in the private sector. The approximately
50 trainees will perform civilian work in the Department
during half of their work time and attend school the other
half.
They will be paid about $60 a week during the sixmonths training period.
Calling the new endeavor an "experimental program", the
Mayor said "I am delighted that Standard Oil (New Jersey)
has made this project possible.
It is an excellent example
of cooperation between the private and public sectors."
Milo Brisco, a vice president and board member of Standard
Oil (New Jersey) and the company's representative on the
New York Coalition, joined the mayor in making the announcement.
They said the new program, the first to be undertaken by the
New York Coalition, was developed by Police Commissioner
Howard R. Leary and the company..
7he Mayor said the program is not intended to prepare trainees
for employment with city government, but is aimed at preparing
them to qualify for jobs in the general employment market.

We call upon the Conf,ress, the Administration and the nation
to move without delay on urban programs,
The Administration's Open
Housing legislation should be enacted into law now,
Definite steps should be taken now to assure government-f-enerated employment to every citizen able and willing to work but unable to
find private employment,
The Administration's Safe Streets and Crime Control Act and
Juvenile Delinquency amendments were drastically altered in the House of
Representatives last year to channel the programs and funds through a
state pl anninp, and allocation proce ss which would delay and frustrate
their effectiveness,
The original Administration version of these bills
should be pas sed by the Sen a t e so a s to mount an efficient and effective
attack on the root cause s of violence , crime and delinquency coupled
with the development of impr oved local law enforcement,
A supplementar y appropri at ion bill should be immediately introduced and enacted to f und f ully the Pr e s ident's anti- pove rtv pro p.rams as
authorize d for this f i sca l year,
Programs f or l ow and moderate income hous i ng, ur ban de ve lopment,
model cities, mass transportation and community facilities should be
extended, expanded and adequately funded now.
The repressive welfare program amendments enacted last year,
penalizing children born into one- parent homes and Ahifting the financinp.
burden to local government, should be r epealed immediately.

We know these legislative aims are more easily stated than
accomplished.
But we also know the needs are massive and urgent, and
the hour is late.
We pledge our full support for the le~islative
action required and ask the help of Congress and the nation.

Dear Friend:
We have learned that the Plans for Progress is holding a
National Conference on Employment for major employers in
Washington, D. c. on January 24, 1968, the same date as
our Midwestern Regional Conference on Expanding Employment
Opportunities.
Since many of the same persons would be involved in both
conferences, we have agreed to reschedule our Kansas City
conference from January 24, 1968, to February 21, 1968.
We expect to forward further details on the program in
the future .
