The Safety Belt Council would appear to have an obvious economic interest at stake in promoting mandatory seat belt laws. "We won't sell another belt," said Pulley, He noted that the same companies which make seat belts also are involved in air bag and other passive restraint technology. "The belt is the only efficient, effective system we have today," said Pulley. There has been no organized opposition to the laws.

The American Automobile Associ ation describes its members as split. The AAA expects the issue to come up at its annual meeting in September. Sen. Robert Bauman, an Easton, Republican, summed up the viewpoint of most opponents in explaining his vote in the Maryland Senate against a bill which would have fined motorists $25 for failing to wear seat belts. Bauman said state police have enough to do without enforcing a non-essential law.

5 III PIERRE The South Dakota Department of Highways and South Dakota State University have recently completed a two-year study of an improved steel girder bridge design which promises substantial savings in bridge construction costs for the State Highway Department. According Highway Director Jack Allmon, "A projected annual savings of $100,000 could be just the beginning." Three years ago, highway bridge personnel went to the department's research and planning division and proposed the initiation of a study to investigate the integral abutment type of construction for steel bridges. This type of bridge design would eliminate the need for such costly items as expansion devices and rockers, as well as reduce the costs of piling, concrete and excavation. Up until that time the most common practice in steel bridge construction was to support the ends of girders on expansion bearing pads or rockers. But department engineers thought that it would be possible to use what is now called integral abutment design in steel bridge construction.

There would be two advantages if studies proved it feasible: dollar savings, and elimination of a leading source of problems in bridge maintenance. Mumtaz Sarsam of the highway bridge section, who worked on the project for his Masters Degree, explained it this way: "Expansion joints, especially in areas of rapidly changing temperatures, cause maintenance problems and they're also quite 1 Values '1 I 1 to i 8.00 I' i WASHINGTON (AP) Within a year or two, some states will require motorists to wear automobile seat belts, says a leading advocate of such laws. When the first law is passed, he said, it will start an inevitable chain of events leading to virtually nationwide mandatory buckle-up laws. "That state will experience a 25 per cent reduction in traffic fatalities, and you'll have a domino ettect," said Charles H. Pulley, president of the American Safety Belt Council.

"State, after state, after state will follow," said Pulley. He does not know which state will act first, but it could happen this year, or next year at the latest, he says; The council," which is sponsored by the companies who make seat belts, has been advocating mandatory belt laws since 1961, but as recently as two years ago, only one state legislature was considering such a law. Twenty-one states had or have them under consideration this year. Puerto Rico motorists can be fined up to $25 after Jan. 1 for failing to wear the belts.

Bills have passed one house in the New York and New Jersey legislatures, making them the leading candidates to become the nation's trailblazer. The federal government has proposed making mandatory seat belt laws a prerequisite for receiving the highway money Washington distributes to the states. The House has written into this year's highway bill a provision offering a bonus to states with such laws. General Motors has initiated an advertising campaign supporting mandatory belt laws. The National Safety Council supports the laws.

But Pulley has been in the forefront of the drive for buckle-up laws, testifying in various states and directing his organization's public relations effort. His 25 per cent estimate on fatality reduction stems from the experience in Australia, where mandatory usage laws were enacted state-by-state beginning in 1970. Every state had passed e-ne by 1972. Traffic deaths in Australia declined from a record 3,798 in 1970 to 3,590 in 1971 and 3,423 in 1972. The 1971 decline was the nation's first in 38 years.

But even that 10 per cent drop over two years was modest compared to the state of New South Wales, where fatalities declined 20 per cent in the first half of 1972. The drop came despite a 10 per cent increase in accidents. In Australia, which has a relatively high proportion of old cars, about 67 per cent of the cars are equipped with seat belts. In the United States, 90 per cent have belts. The U.S.

traffic toll runs about 55,000 deaths a year. Yet7 despite advertising which the Seat Belt Council estimates would have cost $60 million had not some of it been free, average usage in the United States has never gone above 30 per cent. A buzzer-light warning system required in 1973 cars to spur usage has prompted mixed reviews. Automaker surveys found usage rates of about 42 per cent, compared to 15 per cent in cars without the buzzer-lights. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, however, labeled the systems a failure after its surveys showed a usage rate of 18 per cent in cars with the buzzer-lights.

The Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Association expects seat belt usage to increase with the new cars coming off production lines this summer. The cars will have systems which prevent them from starting until the seat belts are fastened. Under present federal proposals, seat belts would disappear as mandatory equipment on new cars when passive restraints such as air bags are installed on cars. The original 1973 effective date has been delayed indefinitely by II of Fuihlon jfl I 11 Jack White Jack White Acquires Interest In Griffin Realty Company Jack White has acquired a principal interest in what was formerly Griffin Realty Joe Griffin has announced.

To see what would happen if the joints were eliminated and the bridge was subjected to those same temperature means and extremes and the same stresses, a half-scale model bridge was built at Brookings and enclosed in a building behind the highway department shop. It was in this building that Sarsam, Dr.

Henry Lee of the civil engineering department at Brookings and David Holman began the study. A half-scale model representing the end portion of a typical highway bridge was constructed and tested in four construction stages: after girder erection; after the integral abutment was built and the concrete attained design strength; after the deck slab was poured; and, after the granular backfill was placed. For each stage the specimen was subjected to a series of predetermined longitudinal movements using hydraulic jacks to simulate temperature-caused expansion and contraction. Electrical gauges were placed on the structure to measure the stress due to movements simulated changes. The results caused by temperature proved that a bridge could be abutted without inclusion of the costly pads and rockers, and still retain the high standards of the American Association of Highway Officials.

Sarsam said the new type of abutting is an even better system than the one most frequently used. successor of St. Peter in union with the Church's bishops. The Church is infallible and the notion of its infallibility is not to be corrupted. As established by the first Vatican Council, the Pope is infallibly when he speaks "ex cathedra" that is, when he defines a doctrine concerning faith or morals to be held by the Church.

The concept of infallibility holds that the church, its mag-isterium, or teaching, and the Pope are not to be challenged in matters of faith and customs of Roman Catholicism. "The mystery of the Church, upon which the second Vatican Council shed fresh light, has been repeatedly dealt with in numerous writings of theologians," the document said. "While not a few of these have served to make this mystery more understandable, others, through the use of ambiguous or even erroneous language, have 'obscured Catholic doctrine, and at times have gone so far as to be opposed to Catholic faith even in fundamental matters." The document also declared that only priests properly ordained may perform mass and administer communion.

Other Interests, Not Lack Of Love, Separating Burtons NEW YORK (AP) Actor Richard Burton says private and professional interests rather than lack of love are the factors in his separation from Elizabeth Taylor. "There's no question about our mutual love and devotion for each other," Burton said Wednesday in a statement released through his law firm. "I don't consider Elizabeth and I are actually separated. It's just that our private and professional interests are keeping us apart," he said.

"I even have Elizabeth's passport in my possession, he added. "Does that sound as if she's left me?" Miss Taylor announced Tuesday that she and her husband were separating after nine years marriage sne ex- pressed the hope that they will oe reconuiea. Burton has been secluded on Long Island at the Quogue home of his attorney, Aaron Frown Froesch said Miss Taylor will leave today for a visit with her mother in Los Angeles and then fly to Hawaii for a vacation with several of her children. Burton is scheduled to leave Long Island in a few days for either the Moscow Film Festival or his home in Gstaad, Switzerland.

Ilartiell, Ml). onJulYl.n VATICAN CITY (AP) The Vatican today reaffirmed the concept of the infallibility of the Roman Catholic Church, its teachings and the Pope in the face of attacks by some theologians. All dogmas "must be believed with the same divine faith," said a 19-page document issued by the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the Vatican office for combating doctrinal errors. The document was ratified by Pope Paul VI and distributed to all priests. It did not identify any of its targets, but Vatican sources said it clearly was in reply to the controversial Swiss theologian Hans Kung.

Father Kung has been under fire from the Vatican-for his book "Infallible? An Inquiry." It contests the dogma of papal infallibility pronounced in 1870 by Vatican Council I under Pope Pius IX. The Vatican document made the following points: The objects of Catholic faith, which are called dogmas, "necessarily are and always have been the unalterable norm both for faith and for theological science."
