I am pleased to issue Technical Paper II, "Administrative and
Legislative Usages of the Terms 'Poverty', 'Low Income', and Other
Related Items". It contains supporting data for the report
entitled The Measure of Poverty which was prepared in compliance
with section 823 of the Education Amendments of 1974. This paper
is a compilation by the Poverty Studies Task Force of the major
Federal, legislative, administrative and statistical uses of
Poverty terminology.
