Westlnghouse 21 Zenith. 2m 4. The application process would be streamlined, quickened, and made more responsible. The possibility for errors would be minimized. Identifiable problems of special groups for instance, the working poor, elderly, poor on Indian reservations would be resolved to a substantial degree.

In general, this legislation would improve the accessibility of the program for most needy people, narrow the eligibility requirements, carefully target the benefits, but then it also would help insure that those who are eligible would have a true opportunity to get the assistance they need so badly. Of course, this largely compromise measure pleases neither the conservatives nor the liberals. Conservatives in Congress feel the reform doesn't clamp down sufficiently on the program, restrict eligibility enough, or save money. (The measure would cost about $200 million more than the current program when fully implemented.) And not surprisingly, congressional liberals, plus poor people's advocates, bemoan the large number of people terminated from the program or racing reductions in benefits. Lawmakers from urban areas and colder climates are especially disturbed by what they see as a built-in anti-North, antiurban distortion.

And it does appear that northern and urban areas would get hurt more than others. Thus, an amendment will be debated on the House floor introduced by Reps. Matt McHugh, and Jim Jeffords, to soften the impact by providing a cost-of-living index to the measure's excess shelter deduction a provision which accounts for the higher shelter and utility costs of colder and urban areas. But other than this amendment, the reform is considered fairly safe, and a reasonable response to the uproars, pro and con, in recent years over the entire food stamp program. It is an unusually sound compromise of the prolonged arguments often so furious, vicious, and so misleading to the uninformed.

It would be a welcome improvement of a basically decent approach to the deep, lasting problems of America's poor. Surviving are a son, Bert, of Overland Park, a sister, Mrs. Essie McCroskey, Fair Grove; two grandchildren and a great-grandchild. Funeral arrangements will be announced by Gorman-Scharpf-Abbott.

For information on deferred annuities call or write: 'Guaranteed by a major insurance company By SYLVIA PORTER NEW YORK Real reform of our nation's major effort to feed the hungry the Food Stamp Program is finally on the way. Within a matter of days, the House will vote on legislation written by its own Committee on Agriculture, similar to a bill passed May 24 by the Senate, which recognizes realistically that both critics and defenders of the program have had justifiable arguments and will try to reconcile their positions into a workable new law. Below are key aspects of the reforms.

1. The purchase requirement (ERP) would be eliminated, thereby enabling many poor people to find their way into the program. Supported Svlvia l'orf-r by the Carter White House, this reform would remove the greatest obstacle to the par-- ticipation of people so poor that they could not muster enough cash to buy their way into the program. (Households now must pay about 26 per cent of their income for food stamps.) About three million Americans currently eligible but unable to buy their stamps would then be able to enter the program. This is the major reform.

2. Eligibility simultaneously would be tied to the poverty line (now $5,850 a year for a family of four) and a gross income ceiling would be established to prevent non-needy households from qualifying. While the charge that high income people have been getting food stamps is not true, it has been possible for households with higher incomes and expenses to qualify. About 1,500,000 at the higher income levels would be eliminated and the benefits of another 2,500,000 would be reduced. 3.

Many admitted "loopholes" would be closed. A requirement would be added that able-bodied people must search for, and accept, employment; people who voluntarily quit a Job would be disqualified; the penalties for fraud would be stiffened and states would be provided "with more federal administrative money to investigate and prosecute fraud, new provisions would make sure that only students who are working or have dependents could get stamps.
