WASHINGTON <A») — President
Kennedy asked Congress Thursday
for $500 million over the next
three years as a first step toward
helping cities unsnarl traffic fa
cilities outmoded by mushrooming
suburbs and growing use of autos.
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.
