The National Outlook
Progress Os The New Frontier
By Ralph Robey
New Frontier legislation con
tinues to 'have rather rough go
ing in the Congress. Up to this
time there has been no real de
feat of a Kennedy proposal, birl
he has had to give ground in
order to .get some of his ideas
passed, and there is much rea
son to believe that this will con
tinue true.
The increase in minimum wag
es was the best example of com
promise. It finally passed but
was far short of what the Ad
ministration wanted, and to get
even this much it was necessary
to use ruthless political pres
sures. As many persons have
pointed out, this measure, al
though tagged as an anti-re
cession move, will increase un
employment.
In contrast, the Aid to De
pressed Areas bill went through
without difficulty in the form
requested. The same was true
in the extension of unemploy
ment aid and dependent chil
dren aid.
But that is all of the New
Frontier legislation that has been
passed by the Congress. The re
mainder of the program is still
being debated by one house or
the other, and in some instances
even the hearings have not been
completed.
Aid to Education has passed
the Senate, and it is expected
that the House will pass a much
less generous bill.
The omnibus Housing bill has
been debated and passed by the
Senate, and has been reported
to the House. How much trou
ble the measure will run into in
the House is still an open ques
tion, but it is to be hoped that
significant changes will be made
in that body.
Social Security changes have
passed the House, and the Sen
ate is still holding hearings and
will not get to debate for Some
time.
A Feed Grains bill and exten
sion of the Sugar Act have pass
ed both Houses, but the over
all farm program is bogged
down in hearings in both sides
of the Congress.
Highway Financing has pass
ed the House, but has not yet
been taken up by the Senate.
Water Pollution also has passed
the House and has been reported
to the Senate.
The Mutual Security measure,
which would increase the
amount for the coming year and
authorize direct borrowing from
the U. S. Treasury for the next
five years, is the subject of
hearings by the Senate and so
far has not been considered by
the House.
Tax revision hearings on Pres
ident Kennedy’s program have
been hel2 by the House Ways
and Means Committee, but no
bill has been reported out and
it is believed that nothing even
How to Treat the
Blister Problem...
A remarkable new development of Du Pont Research
now gives you greater protection against moisture blis
tering than traditional linseed oil paints.
SIMPLY DO THIS: 1— If the old paint has blistered,
remove old paint down to bare wood. 2 Prime bare
•wood with Du Pont 49 Blister Resistant Primer.
3 Cover with one or more coats of Du Pont “Lucite”
House Paint. Dries in one hour. Clean un hands and
brushes with water.
Result—a rich, lovely, low-luster finish of significantly
longer life than ordinary linseed oil paints!

resembling the Administration
plans will be agreed to by the
committee.
This is not the entire New
Frontier program, of course, but
it is enough to show that the
Congress obviously is in no hur
* try, and it is of interest to spec
ulate on why this is true. Three
points are worthy of mention:
First, recovery definitely is
under way. Even the Admini
stration now admits this.
Second, while this Senate is no
more conservative than the last,
the Hoitte is appreciably more
opposed to so-called “liberal”
moves. It is true that party
discipline in the House leaves
much to be desired among both
the Republicans and the Demo
crats, but there still is enough
conservative thinking to prevent
too much really wild legislation
getting passed.
Third, we already have a fed
eral deficit of about $2 billion
facing us for the fiscal year end
ing next June 30, and probably
at least twice that for the fol
lowing year. Even for believers
in deficits as a means of curing
a recession these should be suf
ficient.
But it will be many weeks
before this Congress adjourns,
and those who oppose the Now
Frontier proposals must not let
up in continuing to make their
views known.

Specialists from private firms
will work on projects at the
base.
The Navy said Harvey Point
was selected because of its com
parative isolation and fine exist
ing facilities.
“The nature of the work,” the
Navy said, “is such that the
area will be restricted.”
The Navy described the new
construction to be done this
summer as “minor”.
Parkers Complete
An Extensive Tour
A very interesting .trip has
recently been taken by Mr. and
Mrs. Dalton M. Parker amd fami
ly of Sunbury. Mr. Parker teach
es science at Sunbury High
School. Mrs. Parker is the for
mer Evelyn White Jackson of
Edenton. The day after Mr.
Parker finished the school year,
he and his family left for a
seventeen-state tour.
The Parkers visited such
places as Pittsburg, and Erie,
Pennsylvania, Niagara Falls, New
York, Toronto, Sudbury, (loca
tion of world’s largest ruckle
mine), and Sault St. Marie, On
tario, Canada. They crossed
back into the United States and
toured northern Michigan, 'Wis
consin, and Minnesota. They
then headed northward again to
ward the Lake of the Woods
area of Minnesota and Canada.
Then to Winnipeg, Manitoba, and
westward to Regina, Saskatche
wan.
From Regina, Mr. Parker took
his family south into Montana
and the Black Hills of North
and South Dakota, with a side
trip to Devils Tower National
Monument in Wyoming. Driv
ing back into South Dakota, the
Parkers stopped in Deadwood
and visited the graves of “Wild
Bill” Hickok, and Calamity
Jane. From here they went to
Mt. Rushmore Memorial, where
they enjoyed a delicious meal
featuring roast buffalo. They
then drove through the Badlands
National Monument in South
Dakota and thence to Pipestone
National Monument in Minne
sota. They visited the Effigy
Indian Burial Mounds in lowa,
crossed the mighty Mississippi
and drove to Madison, Wircon
sin.
The children, Bill and Murray,
thoroughly enjoyed seeing the
deer, antelope, Ringneck pheas- ,
ant, and the numerous ducks '
nesting in the lakes on the '
plains and prairies.
