Congressman's Bill Seeks I Declares City Department of Urbiculture | Victimized by

Special to Central Press

r L\SdIIVGTOV—In one of the classic switchoroos of this or an.' other session of Congress, Rep. J. Arthur Younger (R), Califor lia, has put in a kind word for city folks, who, he says, have beet ic looted by all the attention Congress pays to the problems o:

farmers.

It is evident that the congressman considers all us city slickers t< have been sold quit3 a bill of goods, legislatively speaking, by our country cousins. It’s not that Younger doesn’t like farmers. H* loves ’em, he says. It’s just that he feels the people who live in cities and towns have had the!) needs ignored far too often because too mahy legislators have at least one ear cocked to hear the cal of the farm bloc. What Congressman Younger says seems, to thb writer at least, to make a lot of sense. He’s gol a plan to do something about the situation that makes sense, too. He wants to create a “Department of Urbiculture’’ with a secretary in the President's Cabinet. Lend an ear and we will tell you all about it, just as Congressman Younger explained it to us in an exclusive interview with Cen-

tral Press.

Let us first get that strange-sounding name “Urbiculture’’ straight 'hat’s just Rep. Younger's contraction for “urban culture.” Younger’s nil, for which he will press for action at the next session of Congress if he is returned to office, states that it recognizes the “invalu:ble contributions of the Department of Agriculture in promoting he increasingly efficient use of farmlands." ,

* * •

THE DEPARTMENT OF t’RBICULTURE, the bill says, would mdertake research for the increasingly efficient use of city lands and /ould promote the welfare of folks who live in towns or cities. “In 1862, when the Department of Agriculture was established,” Tounger says, “about 80 per cent of the people lived on farms, and i nly about 20 per cent lived in cities and towns. Today, the ratio is eversed. 85 per cent of our people live in towns or cities and only

bout 15 per cent on farms.

“Despite this, although the federal government has done a tremendus amount for farmers, it has done little to help solve the problems i urban areas where the vast majority of our people live.” Younger is no novice at city problems. He was chairman for four ears of the municipal conference of San Francisco, an advisory body tade up of representatives of the Chamber of Commerce, civic bodies, eal estate men and other interested businesses and organizations, [e came to Congress after a long and successful career as a savings

nd loan executive. -.

* • •

’THE BIGGEST REASON’ little has been~dohe tb~ help~solve the roblems of cities and city people," says the congressman, "is that fie farmer’s vote counts so much more than the city dweller’s vote n election day. We hear about the ’farm vote’ all the time, but who ver heard of the ’city vote’ ? City people are going to have to get p and demand that some help be given them on their problems, •’Look at the record. City people pay 90 per cent of all federal, tate and local taxes, but they have only 25 per cent of the repreentation in state legislatures. Even in Congress where the situation

s better, it is still unfair. In some sparsely settled/’

tates, the vote of one rancher or farmer may count Progtom

or more than the votes of 20 people in representation! x Congress. _ — .

'This program isn’t Just for cities of $00,000 peo-. Town*,. Too

le, it’s for towns of 5,000 to 25.000 too. Our smaller'^

(ties are going to be big cities some day and we want them tt> avoid *e mistakes the others have made.” m ’ Congressman Younger cays that if basic T ftscarch ts’nftfleTtakvn nd remedial steps begun on the problems Chat face cities it wccM ay huge dividends. He would have local communitles aRd atates pay
