Because of the socalled multiplier effect. 1.15 million new jobs would breed many more new jobs. and initial expansion would lead to further growth. In areas of especially high unemployment. S. 3311 would make funds available for a new special employment and economic development program aimed at promoting economic selfsufficiency. Special preference would be given to Vietnam Veterans. In addition. the bill requires that unemployed aerospace workers. welfare recipients. older persons. migrants. and those of limited Englishspeaking ability be given a fair share of vailable jobs. A bill introduced this June by Senator ABRAHAM RIBICOFF of Connecticut is both a natural companion to S. 3311 and an excellent alternative to the HartkeBurke bill. I strongly support the basic thrust of Senator RIBICOFFS bill.
