Call for $10 Billion Yearly to Build Day Care Network
Washington delegates at the White House Conference on Children urged a nationwide system of day care centers costing ten billion dollars annually by 1980. Theresa Lansburgh cited 8.5 million children needing care, noting government spends far less on youth than elders and framing the proposal as essential amid economic strain. Delegates questioned conference control and pressed for an open meeting before the final report to President Nixon, amid dissident tensions with staff and White House appointees.
