Abstract | Since Title I funds are distributed on the basis of poverty, the key to the fair allocation of such funds is a fair definition of poverty. In this speech, a Congressman describes how his proposed formula for distributing federal funds for educationally deprived children would mean more help for all these children across the country, including whose who live in the nation's cities. The formula would distribute funds on the basis (1) of the number of poor children as defined by the "Orshansky index" of poverty, and (2) two-thirds of the number of children from families receiving Federal Aid to Dependent Children payments and whose income exceeds the Orshansky poverty index.
