Auxiliary in McHenryN I Goofed Last week when I put in the anniversaries I made two errors on Jerry and Delores Rogers. Their anniversary was the 6th and not the 8th which I had and they've been married 14 years instead of 15. Sorry people, it will be right next year, I promise. Drinking was a problem, years ago, too, but the horses had some sense, then. Capltof Report It has been stated with relative accuracy that much of the legislative program of the Great Society consists of proposals that have been hanging around the halls-of Congress for the last twenty years. Portions of the Poverty, Health Care, School Aid, Housing and other programs are vulnerable to this charge.- \ But a new and exciting measure entitled appropriately the Human Investment Act should cause many headlines during the next - session of Congress and provide- greater economic results than any of the Great Society's enactments.. This new bill (H.R. 10934), sponsored by my colleague, Tom Curtis, Republican Congressman from Missouri, will enable employers to invest in our nation's unskilled human resources by establishing apprentice and training programs for the highly motivated unemployed and transforming them into much needed skilled workers. The employers' incentives for this program would be a 7 per cent, tax credit--to correspond precisely with the tax credit now accorded to corporation on their investments in new plants and machinery. One condition of the arrangement would be the employers' guarantee of a job to the newly trained workers. This" program seems particularly attractive because it would require no new federal personnel, no new federal forms of red tape, and no federal appropriation. Indeed, private industry would do the entire job of soliciting, screening, educating, training and employing the human resources, i.e., the ' young men ' and women who are available in large numbers and who only the skills arid the tunity to become producth and successful members of our complex society. This Member of Congress has joined in presenting a similar bill, H.R. 10959. Indeed, more than sixty-five Republican Congressmen are now behind the plan--with more support developing every day. Whereas the Great Society braintrusters have put forward proposals, some of which have been in limbo since the days of the New Deal, the Republican House members, in the Human Investment Act, have advanced a measure which promises early and far-reaching results.
