Report from
Washington
By ('<«(rrMBUii Dave Martin
Fourth District. Nebraska
Thw week our Education and
Labor Committee has been con
sidering a new libraries bill. The
present present Librara-s Services
Act docs not expire until 196k so
tliere is no need to enact new
legislation at this time. The pro
posed bill id a good example of
how our Federal government can
mushroom fr<im a comparatively
modest program into a much
larger one. The present Libraries
Services Act has been in exis
tence for six years at a cost of
$7 5 million per year. It has pro
vided library facilities to our rur
al areas—limited to those towns
with less than 10,000 population
It is oh a matching basis and has
been highly successful. 1 think
that the present program should
continue..
The new program is known as
the Library Services and Con
.struction Act. The present cost of
$7 5 million per year would be
increased to $25 million j>er year
Th# 10,000 limitation on popula
tion would be eliminated, thus al

lowing assistance to libranea, re
gardlesa of the sue of the com
rnunity, throughout the country
Surveys by the Department show
that the rural areas have the
greatest need for these facilities
Therefore, as a result of Urn pro
posed change, these activities ir
Nebraska could be curtailed be
cause less money would be avail
able lor the rural areas. The sec
ond section of the bill is entirely
new. It would provide $20 millior
for assistance in construction, re
modeling, and for the purchase
of land or iwjuiprnent on a match
ing basis. This is a Federal-awl
to- libraries bill similar to pro
I wised Federal-aid-to-educaUpu
Total cost: $45 million for the
first year, against $7.5 million
annually for the present pro
gram- With a projected $12 bil
lion deficit for 1964 predicted by
the President, I cannont accept
this new proposal.
The president, last week, senl
to the Congress in regard to fur
ther pay increases for Civil Ser
vice and postal employees. Thu
group received a pay raise only
last year. The raises would rur
from 2% to 25% according to the
classification of the job. The
higher grades, or those already
in the higher pay brackets, would
receive the largest percentage
boost. The expected cost of this
proposed pay raise would be $40C
million for the first year. This is
on top of the $1 billion pay raise
in two steps granted last year.

salary for top government execu
tives to a ceiling of $25,500 per
year. This is a forerunner to an
other message within the next
week or two to increase the sal
aries of the Members of the Con
gress. To this, I am unalterably
opposed. I feel that our present
salaries are adequate and that a
raise is not justified. As your Re
presentative in Washington, I
feel that I would be violating my
sacred trust to vote for a pay
iincrease. As a consequence, 1 in
tend to vigursly oppose any pro
posed increase in salaries for
ourselves.
