Federal aid to handicapped citizens was not only vetoed. but when that veto was sustained. the President noted it with great satisfaction and even threw a party at the White House for those noble souls who cut off Federal aid to 12 million handicapped Americans. No more hospital building. No more aid to impacted area schools. No more community mental health centers. And now. no more libraries will receive Federal aid funding. Millions upon millions of our people owe their major advancement in life to free libraries. Untold numbers of immigrants found the key to the locked doors blocking them as a result of the gift of knowledge available through our free library system. Now the President proposes to end Federal aid to this network of institutions. No worse shame can darken the brow of our Nation.
