Kennedy proposes changes to medicare and education aid
President Kennedy and health secretary Celebrezze outlined tweaks to the medicare and education aid plans discussed with Anthony J. Celebrazzé. The changes aim to fit into the 1964 budget, with four or five days of departmental work expected before finalizing the proposal. The cabinet official indicated possible linking medical care for the aged to Social Security, while considering the Javits private insurance option as a tentative study. Proposals also include federal grants to public secondary schools, a college loan program, and teacher salary support, though past Congress defeats temper optimism for 1963.

Duarte Wins Ordinance Setback Court Battle
Duarte defeats a challenge to its setback ordinance as premature. Judge Charles R. Thompson ruled the lawsuit by Smith and other Huntington Park property owners lacked exhaust administrative remedies and that the contested setback rules, including a 25 foot street setback for commercial properties, remain enforceable. The case centered on petition referendums opposed to the measure and its highway frontage provisions along Route 66.
