WASHINGTON REPORT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT All statistics today point to the fact that the country en joys an unprecendented pros perity. Nevertheless some startling contrasts exist in our economy. There are some areas which suffer chronic economic distress, where jobs are scarce or non-existent, op portunity is limited, and fu ture prospects dim. Certainty, there are few Americans who would not favor solving this problem quickly and decisive ly if it could not be done by the legislatively simple expe dient of legislation. Last week, the Public Work and Economic bill which had this as its stated intention, was brought before the Con gress. Many cf us felt a deep sense of disappointment that the bill felt so far short of being responsible and sound legislation. Again, we see the same choice that has been presented s: often in the Con gress where good intentions try to take the place of good legislation. Federal programs need to face problems square ly and provide the step-by step processes for dealing with them. Ringing declara tions of high purp ae are fine fine when they are backed up by thoughtful an mean ingful formulas for carrying them out. If the formulas are faulty tr non-existent the re sults can be confusion, cross purposes. and aggravation of the problem. This bill provides for $3.32 billi n for new massive and indiscriminate Federal spend ing in areas which slag be hind economically. The bill is essentially a restatement of previous programs. It seeks to ! continue to stimulate econo mic activity through the use !of Federal funds. Basically, this ccncept seems to ignore some cf the com plex reasons why a particu lar area does not progress eccnomically. Often these rea sons include geographic lo cation. land terrain, lack of availability of water and oth er natural resources, the de cline of industries cnce loca ted in the area, sparcity of population and serious trans portation problems. The Area Redevelopment Administration was created by the Congress early in the 1960 s to provide loans to crmpanies which would locate plants in certain designated areas of economic distress. Ac tually, the ARA program be- and un- came so ontiowi liil and un satisfactory that the Cuufiui refused to ptovide funds for its continued operation two years ago- Several years ago. Con gress also established the Ac celerated Public Work* pro gram with considerable fan fare. The justification for this program was to create tempo rary employment in designa ted areas because of an eco nomic slump Actually, this program did not substantial ly reduce unemployment al though its costs were very high. As a matter of fact, the Administration opposed addi tional money for this pro gram some time ago and no further funds were made a vailable. In the House bill last week, the somewhat bedraggled id eas of the ARA and the Pub lic Works program were put together with rut any signifi cant changes in the concepts that time has shewn to be faulty. Ah no ugh Cie Federal gov ernment has had ample op portunity to evaluate its ex perience with these programs, the new legislation is broad and vague, with event its strongest supporters having difficulty to explain what it would do and how it would work. .. As we gat into the de ficencies of the bill, it seem ed clear that there was no strong requirement for State and l:cai effort and that we could very well have a sit uation where Federally-finan ced plants could be opened in direct competition with those financed through pri vate incentive. The ARA effort has been marked by instances of this kind. As a matter of fact, there is now pending before the ARA a lean application for $3 million to establish a very large broiler production operation in Pennsylvania. 11 :he Federal government makes this loan and puts a new company into business because of it, there is no doubt that the poultry pro duction industry in North Carolina and other states will be seriously harmed. This is a kind cf "robbing Peter to pay Paul" operation that cre ates more problems than it solves. It is one illustration of the very great problem in this kind of Federal activity. Arother is the pirating of jobs from cne area to ano ther.
