» WASHINGTON REPORT Aft
Congressman Edwin D. Eshleman HO
16th DltlrUt-Pinniylvanta MHp
Most of you are probably
aware that we are.expecting a
massive demonstration early
this spring in Washington on bo*-
half of the poor. So far. the
"march" has been publicized
as Dr. Martin Luther King's at
tempt to force the Congress to
enact legislation favorable to his
cause.
One feature of his cause I find
to be particularly interesting.
Dr. King has proposed that the
Congress establish a guaranteed
national income. Under this pro
posal every family would re
ceive at least $3OOO a year,
whether any member of the
household was employed or not.
Supposedly, the unconditional
guarantee of an income payable
from the U.S. Treasury could"
replace things like public hous
ing, old age and unemployment
insurance, urban renewal, farm
price supports, and state public
assistance programs. While I
could not agree more that many
of the above programs are in
vital need of revision, I must
express reservations about using
a guaranteed income to accomp
lish the goal.
Certainly, there is a basic
fault in the guaranteed income
program There is much fear,
and rightly so, that such a plan
would take away the incentive
for the unemployed to find work
and will encourage those who
work at low -income jobs, or

work only part-time, to quit. The
receipt of a guaranteed income
also would tend to weaken in
dividual dignity and deny the
capacity for growth and self
sufficiency. Such a result might
perpetuate poverty as a way of
life.
The social considerations of
guaranteed income must be
placed in the context of econom
ic considerations as well. Many
experts feel that the incentive
not to work present in the plan
could cause severe manpower
shortages, particularly in low
paying jobs. To attract workers,
employers would have to offer
higher wages. This, in turn,
would mean higher prices and a
continuation of the inflationary
spiral. In addition, either the
program would be extremely ex
pensive or it would have a level

of benefits below that which is
currently regarded as adequate.
Therefore, we might assume
that instead of repracing other
welfare plans,' guaranteed In
come could turn out to be an
extra added attraction.
Dr. King has publicly stated
that he hopes to force the Con
giess to accept his proposal. My
experience indicates that the
Congress will not be intimidated
into action on a program that
has as many fallacies as guar
anteed income would seem to
have. If we are to really help
the poor, action must be based
on merit. I tend to find any oth
er means unacceptable.
“The Administration would be
wise to place far greater em
phasis than it has yet done on
programs to attract foreign vis
itors to the United States. Here
is a virtually untapped source
of dollars, embodying the posi
tive principle of encouragement
to travel instead of the negative
approach thus far adopted
