Speaker. I earnestly urge and hope that this conference report on the continuation and expansion of the wholesome programs of the Office of Economic Opportunity will be overwhelmingly accepted by the House. The basic legislation provides for a 2year continuation of programs that have already proved their effectiveness in carrying out our national commitment to perseveringly eliminate poverty in this country. such as community action projections. neighborhood health centers. emergency food and medical services. drug and alcoholic rehabilitation. migrant workers aid and senior citizen assistance. The legislation further provides new and expanded activities to help meet the desperate needs of our Nations cities and rural areas. to enlarge the Neighborhood Youth Corps unit for the establishment. because of the existing grave unemployment situation in this age group. of 100.000 new jobs for young men and women. to institute the National Legal Services Corporation to strengthen legal services for the poor and. perhaps more fundamentally important than anything else. to create a comprehensive child development opportunities and quality daycare service program designed to give our Nations children. especially the disadvantaged and handicapped children. the best life start a concerned country can provide. I would like to emphasize.
