Section 465. Cancellation of loans for teachers: Subsection (a) of this section amends section 205 (b)(3) of the National Defense Education Act in three respects: First, to provide that the portion of the loans to be forgiven teachers is to be calculated as a percentage of the original total of the loans in question rather than, as the law now provides, of the amount of the loan remaining unpaid on the first day of service as a teacher; second, to provide that the prescribed portions of the loan to be forgiven shall be forgiven for each academic year "or its equivalent"; and third, to provide that the cancellation rate for teachers shall be 15 percent for each complete academic year, or its equivalent, of service as a full-time teacher in a public or other nonprofit elementary or secondary school which is in the school district of a local educational agency eligible in such year for assistance under title II (financial assistance to local educational agencies for the education of children of lowincome families) of Public Law 874, 81st Con

gress, and which has been determined to be a school in which there is a high concentration of students from low-income families. For purposes of such cancellation, an additional 50 percent of any loan (plus interest) may be canceled.

Subsection (b) sets forth the effective dates of the three amendments made by subsection (a).

Section 466. Charges: Subsection (a) of section 466 amends section 205 of the National Defense Education Act by adding a new subsection (c) to authorize institutions to assess charges against borrowers who fail to pay all or any part of an installment when due, and against borrowers who are entitled to deferment benefits or cancellation benefits but who fail to file timely and satisfactory evidence of such entitlement. Such charges may amount to $1 for the first month of delinquency and $2 each month thereafter, except that for bimonthly or quarterly repayment intervals, the charge may be $3 and $6, respectively. Institutions would be authorized to elect whether to add these charges to the principal amount of loans as of the first day after the day on which such installment or evidence was due, or to make the amount of the charge payable to the institution not later than the due date of the next installment after receipt by the borrower of notice of the assessment of the charge.

Subsection (b) of the section amends section 204 (2) of the National Defense Education Act to conform to the amendment.

Subsection (c) provides that the amendment made by subsection (a) is applicable only with respect to loans made after the date of enactment.

Section 467.

to include "economics" among subjects which may be included in programs by State educational agencies. Subsection (a) also authorizes increased appropriations (from $90 to $100 million) for fiscal years 1966, 1967, and 1968 for carrying out title III of the National Defense Education Act.

Subsection (b) of section 467 amends section 1101 of the National Defense Education Act (authorizing short-term or regular session institutes for advanced study) to provide for the authorization of $50 million (rather than $32,750,000) for fiscal 1966 and for each of the 2 succeeding years. It also amends section 1101 to expand the categories of eligible support to include institutes to improve the qualification of individuals who are engaged in or preparing to engage in the teaching or the supervising or training of teachers, of economics, civics, and industrial arts.

The basic criteria must give special consideration to the financial need of the institution. Subject to the foregoing requirements, these regulations may establish additional and appropriate basic criteria.

Subsection (b) provides that the Federal share for the purposes of this part shall be 50 percent of the cost of the project, except that a State commission may increase this share to not more than 80 percent of that cost in the case of any institution proving insufficient resources to participate in the

VII-AMENDMENTS TO HIGHER EDUCA-
TION FACILITIES ACT OF 1963

Section 701. Expansion of grant purposes: Subsection (a) amends section 106 of the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963 to remove the restriction which prohibited institutions of higher education (other than public community colleges and public technical institutes) from receiving grants for undergraduate academic facilities other than those especially designed for instruction or research in the natural or physical sciences, mathematics, modern foreign languages, or engineering, or for use as a library. The amendment does not affect the provisions of section 401(a) of the act, which in effect prohibit the giving of assistance under the act for the construction of gymnasiums, facilities to be used for sectarian instruction, or as a place for religious worship, and other designated facilities.

Subsection (b) increases the fiscal year 1966 authorization for title I of the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963 (grants for construction of undergraduate academic facilities) from $230 to $330 million.

Subsection (c) increases the fiscal year 1966 authorization for title II of the Facilities Act (grants for construction of graduate academic facilities) from $60 to $120 million. Section 702. Technical amendments:

Subsection (a). Making section 103 allotments available for section 104 institutions under certain circumstances: Under title I of the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963, 22 percent of the sums appropriated are allotted among the States for use in providing facilities for public community colleges and public technical institutes, and the remainder of the appropriated sums are allotted among the States for use in providing facilities for other institutions of higher education. This subsection would permit funds allotted to a State for public community colleges and public technical institutes to be used, at the request of the Governor of the State, for other institutions of higher education.

Subsection (b). Making section 104 allotments available for section 103 institutions under certain circumstances: This amendment is the converse of the amendment made by subsection (a). It would permit funds allotted to a State for institutions of higher education other than public community colleges and public technical institutes to be used, at the request of the Governor of the State, for public community colleges and public technical institutes.

Subsection (c). Revising Federal share for public community colleges and public technical institutes: Under title I of the higher

Education Facilities Act of 1963, the Federal share of the cost of a project for a public community college or a public technical institute is 40 percent, whereas the Federal share of the cost of a project for any other institution may be any amount up to 33% percent. This subsection would amend title I so that the Federal share for a project for a public community college or a public technical institute could be any amount up to 40 percent, rather than simply an inflexible 40 percent.

Subsection (d). Indefinite availability of sums appropriated under section 201: Title II of the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963 authorizes grants for the construction of graduate academic facilities. Under section 201, sums appropriated for this purpose are available for grants only during the year for which they are appropriated. Subsection (d) of the bill would amend section 201 so that sums appropriated pursuant to it would remain available indefinitely until expended for grants under title II.

Subsection (e). Two-year availability of title III funds: Title III of the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963 authorizes loans for the construction of academic facilities. Under section 303 (c), sums appropriated for this purpose are available for loans only during the year for which they are appropriated. Subsection (e) of the bill would amend section 303 (c) so that sums appropriated pursuant to it would remain available for an additional fiscal year for making loans under title III.

Subsection (f). Coordinating with part A (grants for expansion and improvement of nurse training) of title VIII of the Public

United States and outlying areas...

Health Service Act: Section 401 of the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963, defines the term "academic facilities" so as to exclude facilities to be used by a school of nursing, a school of medicine, and other schools for which construction assistance is provided under other acts of Congress. Schools of nursing formerly received construction assistance under part B of title VII of the Public Health Service Act, but since June 30, 1965, this assistance has been provided under part A of the recently enacted title VIII of the Public Health Service Act. Subsection (f) would amend section 401 of the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963, so as to reflect this change and thereby continue the policy of the Congress that particular classes of schools should receive particular types of assistance under only one act of Congress.

TITLE VIII-GENERAL PROVISIONS Section 801. Definitions: This section sets out the definition of various terms used in this act.

Section 802. Method of payment: This section provides that payments made under this act may be made in installments, and in advance or by way of reimbursement, and, in the case of grants or loans, with necessary adjustments on account of overpayments or underpayments.

Section 803. Federal administration: Subsection (a) authorizes the Commissioner to delegate any of his functions under this act, except the making of regulations, to any officer or employee of the Office of Education.

any agency of the Federal Government and of any other public or nonprofit agency or institution, in accordance with agreements between the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare and the head thereof.

Subsection (c) authorizes the Commissioner of Education, in carrying out his functions under this or any other act, to contract for the publication of educational and related information so as to further the full dissemination of information of educational value consistent with the national interest, without regard to the provisions of 44 U.S.C. 111. These provisions require that all printing for departments and agencies of the Federal Government be done at the Government Printing Office. Subsection (c) is patterned after section 11(g) of the National Science Foundation Act of 1950 (42 U.S.C. 1870 (g)) and it is intended to extend to the Commissioner of Education the same publication authority as is now possessed by the National Science Foundation.

Section 804. Federal control of education prohibited: This section provides that no department, agency, officer, or employee of the United States is authorized by this act to exercise any direction, supervision, or control over the curriculum, program of instruction. administration, or personnel of any educational institution, or over the selection of library resources by any educational institution. This section provides explicitly that this act is not to be construed as conferring any such authority.

Mr. MORSE. Mr. President, turning how to each of the titles, I wish to call to the attention of my colleagues quite briefly the major changes which were made in the bill and, to the best of my ability, the reasons why the committee was persuaded to support these changes.

The general principle which the committee followed was that we should fund each year of each title with a dollar amount. This was done in deference to the opinion of the majority that ceiling amounts for each of the titles would enable us to bring to the Senate a more accurate picture of the costs of the legislation. These are admittedly high when considered over a 5-year period, but I cannot imagine a better investment than the pledge of these funds for the purposes of H.R. 9567.

It is an investment in our most precious national resource, the young people and the teachers at all levels of this country. It is an investment which I am truly convinced will be repaid over and over and over again.

We also took into consideration the fact that the current fiscal year is onesixth advanced and that by the time funds are appropriated, regulations written, and disbursements made, there may be a period yet of some few months before the programs can become operative. In title I we reduced to $25 million the amounts we recommended for the first fiscal year. It is our judgment, however, that the sum of $50 million which we authorized for each of the succeeding

years can be considered, and properly, a very prudent amount for the program.

In title I as introduced, there were some nine illustrative programs which could be funded under the proposal. The committee received many suggestions for additional proposals which had much merit, and it was therefore decided to couch the authority in generic language reserving the illustrative examples for the committee report.

Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the portion of the committee report relating to title I which sets forth the types of activities which can be conducted under the authorities of that title be printed at this point in my remarks.

There being no objection, the portion of the committee report referred to was ordered to be printed in the RECORD, as follows:

COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY EXTENSION AND
CONTINUING EDUCATION PROGRAM

In keeping with the intent of President Johnson to extend the role of the university "far beyond the ordinary extension-type operation," the committee is proposing a program of Federal assistance for institumaintain extension and continuing educations of higher education to enable them to tion programs while pioneering in a broadened field of responsibility.

It is the intent of the committee that the

States, institutions, and the communities siderable latitude with respect to programs paricipating in this program be allowed conunder this title. The committee points out that the following types of projects and activities would, among others, be eligible for funding.

1. Studies of employment problems and economic growth possibilities in both urban and rural areas;

2. Courses to train subprofessional personnel as aids in the health services and in social work in order to help alleviate shortages of professional personnel;

3. Courses for professional people such as doctors, lawyers, educators, and high school and college administrators to relate the find

ings of recent research, the significance of ings of recent research, the significance of current events, and new techniques and information to their responsibilities to the public.

4. Seminars for community leaders to examine new health, welfare, and education laws and the significance of those laws in their community;

5. Conferences and seminars on the problems extending health services to isolated communities; and

6. Conferences on the problems associated with intergroup relations and social unrest.

7. Professional retraining and refresher programs for persons in professions such as architecture, engineering, landscape architecture, law, law enforcement, medicine, pharmacy, public administration, public health, science, social science, social work, economics, teaching, and urban and regional planning (including environmental health planning);

local, State, and Federal governments; 8. Training and consultative services to

9. Training in leadership and in program planning for nonprofit voluntary associations and civic groups;

10. Special educational programs for adults with a view to increasing their op

portunities for more productive employment

and making them better able to meet their adult responsibilities;

11. Training and educational services relating to aging;
