Congress has recognized a need to assist in the payment of these costs. Much attention has been given recent congressional proposals for direct aid to education. Less attention has been given a series of interesting proposals which, to a great extent, give signs of real as- Future Ministers Gather Together Pre-semester students at Augsburg are currently forming a Pre- Sem club. The group is in the process of defining purposes and formulating a constitution. The group has planned a meeting for April 7 which will feature Dr. Oscar Anderson, president of the College, as the speaker. Dr. Anderson will speak on "A Typical WTeek in the Life of a Pastor," including ordinary and extraordinary experiences of pastors. All pre-seminary students and other interested persons are welcome. by Steve Batalden sistance to the college student. These proposals have called for a percentage of tax credit on tuition costs and other expenditures. THERE HAVE BEEN two basic approaches followed by proponents of such measures. The one approach, recently brought forward by Senators Ribicoff (D., Conn.) and Prouty (R., New Jersey), attempted to amend the recently passed, broad federal tax cut. These amendments were defeated, to a great extent, by those Democrats in the Senate who felt that such an amendment would hurt chances for passage of the federal tax reduction bill. Some of those who opposed the amendments have advocated a different approach, passage of a separate tax credit measure. Among proponents of such a tax relief measure has been Senator Humphrey (D., Minn.). He has advanced his own tax credit bill (S. 1677) which is presently before the Finance Committee of the Senate. MOST OF THE TAX credit bills and amendments have shared similar suggestions. Among these have been (1) that the allowable tax credit vary inversely with income and total educational expenses, and, (2) that the tax credit be available only to the person who pays for the tuition, books, etc. (this would allow deductions for self-supported students as well as for parents of parent-supported students.) Because of the obvious support which the proposed Ribicoff and Prouty amendments have received in defeat (the votes were 48-45 and 45-45 respectively), the Labor and Public Welfare Committee has agreed to hold hearings on the tax credit proposals. The United States National Student Association (USNSA) has asked that students be urged to write to their Congressional Representatives expressing their concern for the passage of a bill providing tax credit on educational expenditures.
