And Kennedy held out hope that air, rail and bus travelers can enjoy bargain rates by recom nending that Congress remove .'ederul control over minimum in tercity fares. This was the high light of his call for a drastic over haul of what the President de scribes as “a chaotic patchwork of inconsistent and often obso lete” laws and rules governing ransportation. Kennedy said he is convinced ‘that less federal regulation and subsidization is in the long run a prime prerequisite of a healthy intercity transportation network. The chief executive’s 10,000- word message spelled out his so lutions for pressing problems ‘burdening our national transpor tation system, jeopardizing the progress and security on which we depend.” He ignored former President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s recom mendation for creation of a gov ernment department of transpor tation. The message, canceled last year and delayed this year, is the last of several Kennedy has sent to Congress detailing his pro posals for the nation. Chairman Warren G. Magnuson, D-Wash., of the Senate Commerce Committee which handles legisla tion in this field, said some of Kennedy’s proposals were contro versial but that the message rep resents a step forward. “For the first time in many years the administration has dem onstrated its concern about our national transportation system and has taken an affirmative position on ways to improve it, both from the point of view of the carrier and the shipper,” he added. Kennedy asked Congress to make available $100 million dur ing the fiscal year starting July 1 as the first installment of his $500-million program to help ci ties untangle their traffic prob lems. The money would be made available to public agencies in the form of direct grants to be matched by local, nonfedera! tributions. The President also aslied Congress: 1. Provide federal loans {9 ban mass transportation bj moving the time limit on fo million loan authorization 1 last year. 2. Authorize for three ; emergency grants for mass: portation undertakings. In addition to calling f: moval of federal controi; minimum intercity passengei’j Kennedy urged that the flv removed from minimum ratt|$ bulk cargo and agricultural fishery products. These three, he said, “rels: the most critical—and coabi sial—problems of unnecessar) unequal regulatory curbs on portation.” Kennedy spoke of e experimentation in the field but did not spell this say exactly where bargain :\ might be offered. Inthera airlines, however, he sak change might be started gradual or temporary basis. Kennedy suggested dial gress make certain there are guards to prevent removal a minimum rate controls from ing to “predatory, discrimiii trade practices or rate wan fleeting monopolistic amir rather than true efficiency." The President repeated his posals for tax changes ia transportation field and u again on Congress to takes operating subsidies from the mestic trunk air carriers. Design Engineer!
