Consolidated with EsetKpg Times, Xay 26, 19Z2 of San Jose Council Orders An Accent Locally Operated Member ch Denrey Media Group California Friday, August 23, 1974 By JIMM1E JONES (flyman is on vacation) Jose, thai sprawling metropolis at the south end or San Francisco bay. was given a new name this week by its City Council. Paying homage to the city's Mexican-American cultural heritage, ihe governing board ordered that henceforth the city's name be spelled with an accent over the in Jose change most newspapers can't comply with because ii would require buying a special type face), To further compound the problem, an expert in the Spanish language says adding the accent on the fast word will bring a pronunciation change in the first.

So, to bfe absolutely correct, you" should say "Sang Ho-Say." Actually, adding the inflection mark over the final could cause the expenditure of many thousands of dollars before the echo stops reverberating. The proposal, passed fay the City Council on a 44o-3 vote, was originated by a housewife, Catherine Linqutst, who said she's one of those people "who are always correcting things." This little correction could cost "anywhere from $100 to S100.000." said City Attorney Peter Stone, who is wondering nbal the tab will be to print that little accent mark on. San Jose's signs, stationery and countless official documents. Meanwhile, though, Or. Reid Scott, head of the Spanish Language Department at San Jose State University in- On Nuclear Power Plants SACRAMENTO Ever since last Year's so- called energy shortage when was spread America intensify its building program ot more nuclear power plants, a wave of protest has been aired by opponents who are of the opinion these plants are dangerous and could destroy entire toivns.

But atomic experts disagree, and rightfully so. because now it is being proved such plants are as safe as the conventional electric The issue is coming into focus now more strongly than ever because the Raneho Seco plant of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District is getting ready to charge the plant and place it into operation. And the Pacific Gas and Electric atomic plant at San Luis Obispo also is in its final stages before it. too, will go into production. Foolish fears have been expressed ever since the U.S.

Atomic Energy Commission gare its blessing to build more plants to make the nation self- supporting by 1980, if possible. As a result of this, unclear power. which represents only- two per cent of the nation's power generating- capacity, is expected to reach 20 per cent by 1980. This is expected to reach 30 per cent, of capacity by the year 2.00U. Host oi those question the safety uf the reactors, the possibilities ot sabotage, earthquakes and what to do with radioactive waste.

According to experts, these fears are groundless and they charge the nuclear opponents with borrowing trouble -which never will happen. They should be believed because they have nuelear knowhow on their side and do not pull situations out of thin air as do the opponents. They also charge the opponents with scaie tactics 10 gain public sympathr. For instance, nothing 'lien opponents changed er has eloped. One thing- the public must remember an in an atomic plane caused by nuclear fission almost is an impossibility.

The fuel used is noc enriched sufficiently or concentrated 10 cause an explosion. Uranium, for instance, needs to be enriched only by wo per cent for atomic power while ic requires 90 per cent lor a bomb. Remember this when critics attempt to Jambasi you- with atomic opposition.

The Sierra Ciub is threatening to take the Environmental Protection Agency to court if it does not tighten regulations it released last Friday. Under the new regulations, the EPA proposes to allow the states to set up their own clean air zoning or set their own ail- quality standards. The Siena 'Dub of membership said if this is permitted, Sonoma County in the Xorth Bay Aiea and portions of Humbok County will become like the Bay choking in ever-present smog. Larry E. iloss, the club's conservation director, said the EPA was flaunting a coint order by allowing the states to sefc air standards in rural areas there is very little at the present.

It was two years ago when the Sierra Club won a suit in a TVashinfi- ton, D.C. court forced Hie EPA to write regulations for the so-called clean air pans of the nation. However, EPA Diiector John R. Quarles announced Jast week the states should decide how clean their air should be based on the needs lor industrial and economic development. But Moss chaieed the EPA and the U.S.
