ARLINGTON NATIONAL
BUILT AROUND MAN WHO
TRIED TO DIVIDE UNION
Arlington National Cemetery
home of the unknown Soldiers, is
a memorial not only to those who
have died for the United States,
but also to the man who tried,
reluctantly to divide the Union.
The cemetery, explains World
Book Encyclopedia, is built around
the home of Gen. Robert E. Lee
and stands on land that once form
ed part of the Confederate gen
eral’s estate. In fact, Arlington is
the original name of the property,
located on the Potomac River in
Virginia.
The home was built by a grand
son of Martha Washington, whose
great - granddaughter was Lee’s
wife.
During the Civil War, the Union
Army occupied the estate and used
it as a training camp and a field
hospital.
The cemetery is probably best
known for the tomb of the Un
knowns of World Wars I and II
and the Korean War, guarded by
a sentry 24 hours a day. But there
is also a monument to more than
2,000 unknown soldiers who died
fighting during the Civil War.

Proposes Public
Works Help for
Unemployed
(From Sen. Gruening’s Newsletter)
Sen. Ernest Gruening offered
an amendment to S2965, the bill
providing for emergency public
works, by increasing the emer
gency appropriation from $600
million to $2,645 billion.
“We cannot accurately judge the
human misery stalking our land by
looking at the overall rate of un
employment,” Sen Gruening de
clared. “During the week ending
April 28, 1962, insured unemploy
ment in Nome, Alaska, was 33.5
per cent. It was no comfort to
the unemployed worker in Nome to
know that the national rate of in
sured unemployment during the
same week was 4.3 per cent. The
unemployed worker in Fairbanks
could derive little comfort from
the fact that Congress was talking
about ‘standby’ public works when
things got worse. How much worse
must it get before the Congress
acts to relieve to the extent pos
sible unemployment in the numer
ous pockets throughout the U.S.?”
The proposal by Sen. Gruening
would raise the amounts author
ized to be appropriated for emer
gency public works to “the same
amounts authorized to be appro
priated for foreign economic as
sistance” under provisions of the
foreign aid act. “My amendment
seeks only to place our domestic
program for alleviating unemploy
ment in a position of equality with
what we are doing abroad,” he
said, but pointed out that even
; with his amendment there would
• not be equality, for his proposal
j amounts to only one-third of the
4 nmrwtiwt Appwmria+aA iS3rdS>*
Iaid under the foreign economic as
sistance act of 1961.
Specifying that his amendment
would not take a single penny from
!- the foreign aid program, Sen.
e Gruening said he did not see how
t Congress could take care of unem
ir ployment abroad with American
i dollars — mentioning U.S.-spon
sored public works projects in Ye
i men, Sudan, the Republic of China
l and the Philippines, totaling $10.5
. million — without first taking care
of the unemployed at home “just
as adequately.”
