Shrewsbury, j. Wednesday, October 8, 1980 The Daily Register 3 Lucey discovers urban problems state agreement to purchase 500 Japanese-made Datsuns by making an exception to the requirement that government contracts go to the lowest bidder. The law allows the state and local governments to reject the low bid if its from a foreign car maker and instead buy automobiles from a domestic manufacturer, but only for the next two years. Pension hike OKd TRENTON Retired public employees would receive an increase in their pensions under a bill receiving final legislative approval in the state Senate. The measure sponsored by Sen.

John Russo, D-Ocean, would increase the annual cost-of-living adjustment from 60 percent of the change in the federal Consumer Price Index to 66.7 percent. Gov. Brendan T. Byrne struck the provision from the current state budget in a line-item veto. It appropriates 63.8 million to cover the proposed increased pension costs for state employees and Blue Cross order TRENTON State Insurance Commissioner James Sheer an has ordered radiologists to accept Blue Cross payments as full reimbursement for their services, despite complaints that Blue Cross doesnt pay enough.

Radiologists at 36 hospitals on the Blue Cross plan have begun billing patients directly, at a higher rate, rather than seeking payment from Blue Cross, Sheeran said yesterday. Sheeran ordered radiologists to stop the practice and accept Blue Crosss payments. Parking lots done TRENTON Repairs to 12 rail station parting lots in Hazlet, Elberon and seven other towns have been completed with 6290,000 in 1979 Transportation Bond Issue funds, the state Department of Transportation announced. Haxlet leases its rail station parking lot from New Jersey Transit and Elberon is considering doing the same, a department spokesman said. NEWARK (AP) Practical politics replaced platform rhetoric for independent vice presidential candidate Patrick Lucey as he toured a New Jersey public housing project for the first time.

"I wanted to come to see if its as bad as reported its worse, Lucey said after touring the Scudder Homes project in central Newark yesterday. The running mate of independent presidential candidate John Anderson said the pairs platform holds the key to rehabilitating projects such as Scudder Homes, the largest housing project in New Jersey. We will provide money to rehabilitate buildings for the poor and help them in other ways, too, Lucey said. The Independent platform has as a plank 64 billion yearly trust funds for both rebuilding housing and mass transit. "An administration with compassion would not let a situation like this develop, he said.

Tenants of the project are staging a rent strike to protest dilapidated buildings and lack of maintenance which has left the facility half-filled. Ive been a landlord and you do not, even for a night, let water come through the ceiling, Lucey said after visiting the apartment of Helen Goines. Millions of dollars were allocated for modernizing this project and I dont see any evidence of it," he told a news conference in a neighborhood center ringed by shabby high rise apartment buildings. "Somebody in government has to listen to us, show us that they care about the poor people, said Oscar Miles. Just maybe the votes from one project would be enough to get that person into office, Miles said.

An Eagleton Institute of Politics poll released last week shows the Anderson ticket trailing Republican candidate Ronald Reagan and President Carter in New Jersey. The figures were 38 percent for Reagan, 31 for Carter and 21 for Anderson. Were third in polls in New Jersey, but it is an impressive third, Lucey said. New Jersey is a state we have tc carry were behind, but were is range. Carter to appear TRENTON President Carter will make an extra stop during his planned visit to New Jersey next week, campaign officials said without specifying the additional stop.

Carter's current schedule for Oct. 15 calls for an appearance at a Democratic National Committee fund-raiser at the Meadowlands Hilton in Secaucus, with cocktails at 6:30 p.m. and dinner at 7 :30 p.m. Officials said yesterday Carter has scratched plans for a smaller 6150-per-person fund-raiser to benefit the Democratic State Committee the same day. Instead, they said, Carter will personally campaign somewhere In New Jersey, but the location was not named.

Buy American TRENTON State and local governments in New Jersey are now bound by law to prefer buying American-made automobiles rather than cheaper foreign cars, unless the price is exorbitant. A bill signed yesterday by Gov. Brendan T. Byrne could void a pending The weather AF PIPE NEEDS WORK Patrick Lucey, Independent vice presidential candidate, tours a central Newark housing project yesterday. Albanese a candidate (Will Willi til' An independent survey of New Jersey Republicans who vote found 44 percent listed themselves as conservatives and 25 percent said they were Italian-Americans, A certified public accountant, Albanese said New Jersey government should resemble an efficiently run corporation in which the governor acts as chairman of the.

board." An ardent foe of the state income tax when it was adopted four years ago, he refused to condemn the levy now. But his major point yesterday appeared to be his eagerness to be identified as a conservative. "There has been a widespread and continuing emergence of a new conservative majority, he said. TRENTON (AP) The first Republican to announce his candidacy for governor said the next head of state must be a conservative and should be from a major ethnic group. State Assemblyman Donald J.

Albanese said yesterday he is best suited to succeed Gov. Brendan T. Byrne next year. Albanese; 43, of Lopatcong Township in Warren County, said he is an Italian-Ameri-can with a perfect rating from conservatives. He mentioned Germans when asked to list other ethnic groups where gubernatorial candidates should come from.

There may be others, but I dont care to get into them right now, said the five-year Assembly veteran. The last three New Jersey governors have been of Irish descent. i' IOO Om IttttltTlI Oidvdtd NATIONAL W6ATMCR SltVlCI NO A A. US Dtp) Cmmwm AP MINE, MAYBE Republican Assemblyman Donald J.

Sen.

S. Thomas Gagliano, Assemblywoman Marie S. Muhler and Assemblyman John O. Bennett III supported the construction of the Ocean County plant as a coal-burning facility in a letter to state Environmental Commissioner Jerry F. English.

It is increasingly obvious that we should direct to shelve any consideration of constructing the Forked River facility as a nuclear-powered facility when there are so many unanswerable questions regarding this source of energy, Muhler said. Gagliano said 600,000 customers in Monmouth County and other central New Jersey counties are entitled to stability in their electric rates. rates have increased substantially several times to purchase energy from other utilities to make up for energy lost because of the shutdown of the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant, in which had a 25 percent interest. Until there has been a study completed by the Department of Environmental Protection as to the effects of the coal facility, I am certain that will not expend the necessary capital to draft the engineering plans for the conversion of this facility, Gagliano said. The Forked River plant was only 3 percent complete when the project was halted in the wake of the Three Mile Island accident.
