CAPITOL By Rep Glenn Cunningham WASHINGTON (Special) Construction of classrooms con tinues at a record rate wiw out Federal aid to education. Last year 72,000 more new classrooms were built. It Is In teresting to recall the Presi dential message on education to the la.st Congress, which esti mated that 600,000 new class rooms would be needed in lv 1960's. or 60,000 new classrooms per year. , Without Federal aid for school construction, the local school boards and the citizens who elect them have not only met this goal, it has been exceeded by 20 per cent. Republican members of the House who began their service in January 1957 belong to what we call the 85th Club, named after the 85th Congress when we began our service. I was honored to be elected president of this group for the next two years. It was this group which organized and presented a detailed study of the rules and procedures of the House of Representatives plus concrete suggestions for their updating and Improvement last fall. We plan to make this one of cur principal projects during this Cangresj. Many peopie in and out of government are con cerned about the Inefficient operation of the Congress. I am very hopeful that we can lead the way toward many reforms of the rules, some of which date back more than a century. I was also appointed by the Speaker of the House last week to serve on the U.S. Territorial Expansion Memorial Commis sion. I will be the only House Republican serving on this body for the next two years. The Commission was first established in 1934. Among it duties are planning for suitable memorials to the men who made possible the territorial expan sion of the United States, parti cularly Thomas Jefferson and others who negotiated the Lou isiana Purchase, the explorers Lewis and Clark, and the hardy hunters, trappers, frontiersmen and pioneers. While original legislation placed St. Louis as the only site for such memorials, and work Is progressing there on a major project financed mainly by pri vate funds, I believe it would be equally Important to consider the possibility of other sites within the Louisiana Purchase tua, which of course Includes all of Nebraska.
