Present: Senators Douglas, Sparkman, Proxmire, Pell, Javits, Miller, and Jordan; and Representatives Reuss, Griffiths, Curtis, and Kilburn. Also present: James W. Knowles, executive director; Hamilton D. Gewehr, administrative clerk; and Donald A. Webster, minority economist. Chairman DOUGLAS. It is now 10 o'clock. The committee will come to order. We begin this morning the committee's consideration of the Eco- nomic Report of the President, whicbl'was transmitted to the Congress on the 20th of January, by hearing from the Council of Economic Advisers, Walter W. Heller, Chairman, accompanied by Gardner Ackley and John P. Lewis, members of the Council. Members of the Joint Economic Committee who are always con- cerned with, and by law must consider the Economic Report, are particularly interested in the report this year since it contains two chapters which emphasize matters that have long been of interest to the Joint Economic Committee. One of these relates to the chapter entitled "The Problem of Poverty in America," and, second, the chapter entitled "The Promise and Problems of Technological Change." In order that the committee may have before it a reminder of its previous deliberations and reports, I want to include in the record at this point a list of the relevant past committee publications on these two subjects. (The exhibits referred to follow:) Low-INcoME FAMILIES The following studies, hearings, etc., have been conducted by the Joint Economic Committee: "Selected Government Programs Which Aid the Unemployed and Low-Income Families" (materials assembled by the staffs of the Subcommittee on Unem- 1 2 JANUARY 1964 ECONOMIC REPORT OF TEE PRESIDENT ployment and the Subcommittee on Low-Income Families), committee print, November 1949.

Unfortunately these items are all out of print except for a quite limited supply of the reports to which I am about to refer. Two of the items on this list represent subcommittee reports which were approved by the full committee for transmission to the Congress. I believe that the recommendations of these two subcommittees, transmitted through the full committee, afford a good summary of the breadth and depth

  • Wildlife in an Ethiopian Valley by Emil K
    342 Oryx Wildlife in an Ethiopian Valley By Emil K. Urban and Leslie H. Brown On several flights and safaris in the lower Omo River valley the authors and others recorded the numbers of larger mammals they saw. The results showed no regular general migration pattern, although certain species showed trends, notably eland, zebra, elephant and Lelwel's hartebeest which moved into the area after the rains and out again when the grass died. Dr Urban is working in the Department of Biology in the Haile Sellassie I University in Addis Ababa. Leslie Brown, well known Kenya naturalist, is a UNESCO wildlife consultant. HERE are large numbers of mammals in the plains and foothills on T either side of the lower Omo River, including game animals, some in large concentrations, that have been reduced or are extinct eleswhere in Ethiopia. These mammals, their seasonal movements and population den- sities have not been documented and are very little known, although it is suspected that their movements in the lower Omo plains are related to more widespread movements in the Sudan. This paper reports scattered observations of larger mammals in the area between January 1965 and June 1967. They are, needless to say, inadequate for a full picture of the migratory game movements. Between us we made five trips: January 1965, LHB and Ian Grimwood; March, EKU; September, EKU; December, EKU and John Blower; and March 1967, LHB. In addition John Blower, Senior Game Warden of the Imperial Ethiopian Government's Wild Life Conservation Depart- ment, visited the area in October 1965 and February 1966, and G.

Unsurprisingly for a group of representatives from 21 states with varying political, socioeconomic, and geo- graphic contexts, they had divergent goals. Yet, with the exception of Cuba’s delegation, they all agreed on why they were there: Havana’s alignment with “extra-continental communist powers,” along with Fidel Castro’s announce- ment on 1 December 1961 that he was a lifelong Marxist-Leninist, had made Cuba’s government “incompatible with the principles and objectives of the inter-American system.” A Communist offensive in Latin America of “in- creased intensity” also meant “continental unity and the democratic institu- tions of the hemisphere” were “in danger.”1 After agreeing on these points, the assembled officials had to decide what to do about Cuba.

  • Teaching the March on Washington
    Nearly a quarter-million people descended on the nation’s capital for the 1963 March on Washington. As the signs on the opposite page remind us, the march was not only for civil rights but also for jobs and freedom. Bottom left: Martin Luther King Jr., who delivered his famous “I Have a Dream” speech during the historic event, stands with marchers. Bottom right: A. Philip Randolph, the architect of the march, links arms with Walter Reuther, president of the United Auto Workers and the most prominent white labor leader to endorse the march. Teaching the March on Washington O n August 28, 1963, the March on Washington captivated the nation’s attention. Nearly a quarter-million people—African Americans and whites, Christians and Jews, along with those of other races and creeds— gathered in the nation’s capital. They came from across the country to demand equal rights and civil rights, social justice and economic justice, and an end to exploitation and discrimination. After all, the “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom” was the march’s official name, though with the passage of time, “for Jobs and Freedom” has tended to fade. ; The march was the brainchild of longtime labor leader A. PhilipR andolph, and was organized by Bayard RINGER Rustin, a charismatic civil rights activist. Together, they orchestrated the largest nonviolent, mass protest T in American history. It was a day full of songs and speeches, the most famous of which Martin Luther King : AFP/S Jr. delivered in the shadow of the Lincoln Memorial. top 23, 23, GE Last month marked the 50th anniversary of the march.
