President Carter has proposed the first major revision of the welfare sys tem since the Great Depression, a $31.1 billion package of jobs and supplemental income for the poor. The plan represents $2.8 billion in new welfare spending. Opening the administration’s con gressional testimony on the Carter plan, Califano said welfare as it exists is intolerable. “The' time is now for welfare re form because most Americans agree that we simply have to scrap our present welfare system and build a better one, Califano testified. He was the first witness at a series of hearings before a special House welfare reform subcommittee. Rep. James Corman, D-Calif., subcommittee chairman, said he supported welfare* reform and urged both the* House and Senate to re spond creatively to the welfare prob lem. Congressional action on the welfare proposal is not expected this year and a fully operating welfare re form is not anticipated until 1981. The plan would create up to four million public service jobs for par ents and guarantee a minimum in come for families and persons unable to work because of disability or age. Corman was not as prompt as Califano to dismiss the present wel fare structure. “It distresses me greatly when people speak of the present income-support system as a total failure,” Corman said in an opening statement. He said it would not be enough to “tinker with the present irrational structure” because welfare now provides incentives for families to split up and discourages work.
