Shapp Challenges Water Treatment Spending Cutback HARRISBURG(UPI) --Gov. Milton J. Shapp Wednesday asked President Nixon to reverse his decision to cut $6 bii- Him originally targeted for the war against water pollution. Shapp said the cutback will impede the pace of the state's Clean Streams Program and create a "schizophrenic situation" in which federal water cleanup deadlines cannot be met. Shapp also told a news conference that the state was "prepared to sue in the event the money is not forthcoming" on grounds the President is overstepping his authority.

Nixon has pledged to cut $6 million from the money Congress appropriated for the construction of municipal wastewater treatment plants. The President vetoed the bill in October as inflationary but Congress voted overwhelmingly to override the veto. Shapp said the bill was not inflationary because cleaning up the environment should be considered an investment that will pay for itself. He said it would create hundreds of thousands of jobs, stimulate the economy and new industries to locate in areas of clean en. vironment.

I "Thus, I do not believe, Mr. 'President, that you have the right to contravene this vigorous expression of national priorities by Congress, by Pennsylvanians and by Americans throughout the land," Shapp wrote. "I urge you to release the full amount of financial assistance for this much-needed program Kittonning Duo Hurt in 2-car Auto Crash Kittanning police responded to a two-car accident early this morning which injured two borough drivers and did damage to a West Penn Power utility pole interrupting area service.
