Border Group Backs Hoswell Port Plan TLESDAY Nov. 13, 1973, Page A-16 AROUND King Reviemng Proposals For Energy Conservation NEW MEXICO i URGING HIGH school and junior high school students to use school' buses rather than drive their own vehicles. REDUCING NIGHT lighting of public buildings to an absolute minimum. REQUIRING ALL school sports activities to beheld duringdaylight hours. STARTING a commuter bus service between Santa Fe and Albuquerque for state employes.

RESTRICTING travel of state employes to pool cars and pool aircraft. STARTING a campaign of voluntary energy savings, including closure of all-night businesses, employe car pools, a walk-to-work campaign, reduction of unnecessary household appliance uses, better insulated homes and use of smaller cars. SANTA FE, (AP) Gov. Bruce King said Monday he will work with the State Highway Commission on the possibility of reducing maximum speed limits from 70 to 60 miles an hour. "Since we are facing possible serious shortages of energy and since New Mexico is one of the leading producers of various fuels, I think it is important that our state takes a lead in this problem," King said.

THE GOVERNOR called Monday for public suggestions on a series of energy-saving proposals. Among them was the 60-mile-an-hour speed limit and a two-month winter vacation for some school districts. Public school finance chief Harry Wugalter said he has received only one warning that a school district is short of heating fuel. THE PECOS DISTRICT, he said, is concerned it might run out of liquefied petroleum gas in a month. Wugalter said 48 of the state's 88 districts, containing 67 per cent of the state's public school students, depend on liquefied petrolium gas for some or all of their school heating.

The governor's aide and energy advisor, Frank DiLuzio, and Dept. of Development director Bill Simms has proposed a list of suggestions for coping with the fuel shortage. They include: CLOSING STATE offices at 4:30 p.m. instead of 5 p.m. and cutting the lunch hour to 30 minutes.

STUDYING whether year-round Daylight Saving Time would save energy in New Mexico. STUDYING a possible surtax on gasoline to discourage unnecessary use of fuel. in international trade and commerce was warmly welcomed by Roswell Mayor William Brainerd, who, with his associates, has been working on this objective for a long time. Brainerd is a member of the committee. State Planning Officer David King, who is executive secretary of the commission, told the committee which met at the Roswell Chamber of Commerce and Development under the cahirman-ship of Penrod Toles, that his has been greatly encouraged by the progress reports on the project to make Anapra an international Port of Entry.

KING SAID HE had been informed last week by Gov. Oscar Fl ores of Chihuahua that the president of Mexico had given assurance that 6.9 kilometers of highway in Mexico leading to Anapra would be paved in the very ncra future. Journal Special ROSWELL Members, of the Trade and Commerce Committee of the recently formed New Mexico-Mexico Border Commission pledged their support here Monday to obtain international air routes into Albuquerque and to have the Roswell Airport designated as a foreign trade zone including, if necessary, as an international Port of Entry. Recognizing that Albuquerque is the only city in New Mexico at the present time that could hope to acquire international air routes, the members said they would cooperate with the Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce and the New Mexico congressional delegation to achieve this designation. THE UNANIMOUSLY passed resolution by the committee favoring the utilization of Roswell's facilities and wquipment Rent a new Arrested Man Not 'Suspect' SILVER CITY (UPI) A man arrested in Oregon over the weekend as a suspect in the murder of a Cliff, N.M., girl is not the right man, Silver City Police Chief Tommy Ryan said Monday.

Williams had been named in a murder warrant issues in Silver City for the slaying of Glennie M. McDonald, 19.

The HSS board has un-der consideration a new "standard of need" schedule in accordance with a study of the state's poor made by Dr. Jerry Boyle, University of New Mexico professor. He attended Monday's meeting, but said little.

HEIM DISCLOSED the Legislative Interim Committee on Health and Aging is considering requiring the state to extend medical services to the "medically indigent," as well as to welfare recipi- ents. Estimates are this would cost $2.85 rriillions more. "If this is proposed to (he legislature, it would be in a separate bill sponsored by the committee on health and aging," Heim said. "It is not in the HSS budget request." The "medically indigent" are those adjudged too poor to pay their medical expenses, but not poor enough to receive welfare payments and thus secure the medical services by that route.

SCOTT Of the Journal's Santa Fe Bureau SANTA FE Gov.1 Bruce King still plans to recommend the legislature appropriateonly 12 per cent more for operations of state government ing the 1974-75 fiscal year, he told the Health and Social Services Board Monday. The statement boded ill fortheHSSrequestfor $22 million more from the general fund than it is receiving this year.

The meeting brought out the legislature might be asked by one of its interim committees to vote another $2.85 million to the HSS for medical care for the "medicallv indigent." THE GOVERNOR'S 12' per cent increase figure, would add about $39 million to the $324 million which was appropriated for this fiscal year for operating expenses. The HSS request for $22 million more is thus more than half the increase King proposes. The governor and members of the Dept. of Finance staff met with the HSS board and top member, of its staft Monday afternoon. King said the meeting was asked by the HSS.

RICHARD 11F.IM, HSS director, asked how much the governor would recommend be appropriated to his agency. He said the department would like to know before it goes before the Legislative Finance Committee for a budget hearing Nov. 28. "Ideally, what we would like is when we go before the LFC is we'll be talking about a program you will support," Heim said. He Rot no replv.

ROBERT KIRKPA-TRICK said before the DFA makes a recommendation which will become the governor's rec-ommendaMon it will have to study the requested HSS budget in detail. He pointed out the size of the detailed budget it is a computer printout book more than three inches thick will take some time. Ralph Yonkers, board member of Gallup, said he thought the budget request, as submitted, is "a real good budget." HE SAID HE thought there should be no dispute on the "basic budget" to continue programs at present levels and calls for $7.8 million more than this year. "What we're talking about is the other stuff someone feels isneces-sary, such as the standard of added.
