COURIER-POST, Camden, N. Thurtday, July 20, 1972 7 GOP in Tug-of-War With Agnew as Prize 1.S. Urged to Force School Bus Safety WASHINGTON (UPI) A political tug-of-war has erupted between Republicans left and Republicans right with only a month to go before the start of their national mnntiii constructed than school buses. There is no question that far more has been done to assure the construction of safe cars than has been done to assure the construction of safe school buses which transport the nation's children. There is little excuse for DOT's apathy, and even antipathy, to requiring the construction of reasonably safe school buses." fa if: 'I AS nf (y M7 id Ju The prize is Vice President Spiro T.

Agnew. The conservatives are more than eager that President Nixon retain Agnew. i They want him for the cam paign and they want him as rida Mae Roeder TPs vice president for four more years. The liberals want to dump him. Despite a flurry of news POWER UP 68 PCT LOS ANGELES Nuclear power generation increased its small share of the U.S.

energy market more than 68 per cent in 1971 to 36.7 billion GOTTA conferences, statements and handouts from both sides, the impact of the unsolicited advice on Nixon is expected to be negligible. Everyone knows that the WASHINGTON (LTD Les Aspin, told a Senate committee today that school buses were probably "the unsafest vehicles on the road" and that the government was doing little to require the construction of safe ones. In testimony prepared for delivery to a hearing on auto and school bus safety, Aspin called for enactment of legislation sponsored by himself, most of the Wisconsin House and Senate delegation and 73 other congressmen. Aspin's bill would require the Department of Transportation (DOT) to establish comprehensive safety standards for school buses, build a prototype safety school bus and investigate all school bus accidents that result in a fatality. The Wisconsin Democrat noted it is sometimes said that school buses are one of the safest forms of transportation.

This is true, said Aspin, but only because the buses generally move slowly, other drivers exercise special caution when they sec school buses and because school bus operators are usually extremely careful drivers. "But while there may be relatively few accidents with school buses, it is also true that the accidents which do occur are more serious than they need be because school buses are extremely -built! vehicles," Aspin said. "Passenger cars are generally better constructed, intra and inter city buses arc often better decision is Nixon's and Agnew's GOP Charade GRIPE?

I have a gripe along with many of my neighbors here in Grassy Sounds.

This concerns the new road that is going in on North Wildwood Boulevard from the Parkway to Grassy Sound Bridge. Surveying has started and markers have been put up, therefore plans must be made as to what direction this road will go. What we would like to know is will the homes along both sides of this road be affected or won't they? All kinds of inquiries have been made including letters to Trenton and visits to Cape May Court House by various people trying to find out. The answers are always they don't know! At least this is what they say. These are mostly summer homes but a lot of work and money has been put into them and they mean quite a lot to us.

We pay taxes on these houses and feel we should have the right to this information. Can you help us find out about our homes? ANXIOUS-Grassy Sound Dear Anxious: Getting information from government departments is like pulling an impacted tooth. It really hurts them to cooperate.

As soon as the liberals were Shapp Raps Nixon On Flood Relief done, the conservatives sent a Department of Transportation's Cherry Hill office; we then were given some cooperation. Cherry Hill referred the complaint to the chief engineer of design's office in Trenton. This was June 12. On July 17, a month and another letter to them later, we finally got an answer for you. But all along the way not one official office of Cape May County knew anything about any road going in right in their own bailiwick! It seems the present North Wildwood Boulevard extends 7.46 miles in a general east-west direction from Delaware Ave.

in North Wildwood to the Delsea Drive and State Highway 47. Prior to 1971, this route was under the jurisdiction of Cape May County. Public Laws of 1971 provided for the addition of this County route (585) to the state highway system and as of Nov. 1 last year, the Department of Transportation took over and designated it as state Route 147. The state is now in the process of conducting preliminary engineering studies.

The markers placed in the field were for the purpose of providing control points for aerial photographs and are "not relative to any property requirements."
