The application was rejected, Putsch said, because it did not outline "a specific plan" for how the money would be used. He said NEA is "committed to the success of New Jersey's arts program' and said NEA would provide the state council "with technical assistance" in rewriting the grant application.

The grants provided by the federal-state program help fund a variety of projects in all 50 states icluding art galleries, museums and other cultural activities. In 1979 New Jersey received $220,000 from the grant program in addition to other sources of funding from the NEA. The initial rejection of the 1980 applicat ion caused concern in New Jersey because it was the first time any state had received a negative response from the NEA for such a grant. State officials will be in Washington today to meet with Putsch and discuss ways of "improving the applicat ion," said Putsch. "New Jersey has a very good arts program and we are going to break our necks to see that this problem is worked out," said Putsch.

He refused to discuss the specific problems in the application, but said they were partially due to a new set of rules designed to strengthen the quality of the federal-state program. Barbara Ackerman, spokesperson for the Secretary of State's Office, predicted from Trenton that "technical deficencies" in the grant application would be resolved. She said new procedures had caused some problems. But only New Jersey and Washington D.C. were rejected during the initial screening phase.

Press Washington Bureau WASHINGTON Federal and state officials say they can resolve the problems that so far have prevented New Jersey from receiving funds from the National Endowment of the Arts for 1980. The $405,000 application by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts to NEA was rejected by an initial screening committee in Washington. But the NEA is so anxious to give New Jersey the money that federal officials plan to help the state council write a new "more acceptable" grant application.

"We want to turn it around," remarked Henry Putsch, director of the Federal-State Partnership program at NEA. Putsch said the initial rejection of the New Jersey appli- Births Riverview Hospital Red Bank Mr. and Mrs. Charles Feldman, Aberdeen Township, yesterday, a boy. Mr.
