Washington A number of formidable hurdles still stand in ! the way of enactment of legis-j iation authorizing Federal sub-: sidies for education. The House—for the first time! in history—approved a program! for Federal subsidies for general I school construction. Tin* amount authorized was $1.3 billion, spread over four years. This compares with the Sen ate-approved $l.B billion pro gram, spread over two years, for both school construction and teachers’ salaries. Before any measure becomes law, agreement must be reach ed on the two different versions —and the resulting legislation must be signed by President Eisenhower. Among the hurdles confront ing the legislation are these — any one of which could kill it: 1. President Eisenhower’s veto power. Administration support ers had contended all along that a veto was likely unless the legislation under consideration was drastically modified. During the House debate, HEW Secretary Flemming ac tively sought a compromise to require that Federal funds be matched each year by the states on a 50-50 oasis and that the money be disbursed on the basis of need and not merely on the basis of school population irre spective of need. The House accepted considera bly less than one-half of the compromise. It agreed only in part to the matching proposal and rejected the needs test en tirely The House vote on the meas ure was 200 to 189—far less than the two-thirds required to over ride a veto.

Many southern Senator's are regarded as certain to filibuster the legislation if an attempt should be made to obtain Sen ate approval of the bill in thej form in which it was passed by | the House. j The soutnemers objected par-1 tieularly to an amendment, of-! sered by Rep.

IIMRRY FOR BEST SELECTIONS signed by the President, further action would be necessary to provide funds. The legislation now under consideration merely authorizes the spending. Any funds actually made available would have to be voted later. During the House debate, con vincing arguments were present ed to show that the need for school construction was rapidly being met on tire state and local levels —and that the Federal gov ernment would stay out of this field of activity. Here is the way Rep. Allen (R-Ill.) summed up the opposi-, tion arguments: “I say that I am opposed to f—btciiON GN9 PAGE SEVEN the bill, first, because the Ftjfc eral government does not pjje the money and would be obliged to borrow it for future genera tions to pay back; second, be cause all the states are better olf f.nancially than the Federal Government; third, because the education of i.ur children should be considered a local responsi bility; fourth, because it is the beginning of Federal financial assistance which will ultimately end in Federal financial assist ance for teachers’ salaries, school equipment and textbooks; and fifth, because above all our schools should be free of Fed eral controls and domination.”’
