Javits urges Nixon to extend anti poverty program through 1976
Senator Jacob Javits calls for a five year extension of the war on poverty to end with the bicentennial, urges keeping core programs like Vista and legal services under OEO, and demands priority funding for local initiatives. He argues current allocations fail to reach most poor children, addicts, and workers in need of services.
