dealing with a federal program to make state and local governments operate more efficiently The effect of the amendment is to change to 50-50 the federal-state funding ratio for federal grants awarded under the Intergovernmental Personnel Act of 1970 Under the present formula the By Roll Call Report WASHINGTON how area members of Congress were recorded on major roll call votes on Wednesday when the August recess ended HOUSE GOVERNMENTAL PERFORMANCE: Adopted 226 for and 168 Sens Hugh Scott and Richard Schweiker voted Williamsport Collectors Plan Coin Stamp Show The third annual coin and stamp show sponsored by the Williamsport Area Numismatic Society will be held at the Holiday Inn Williamsport Sept 27 from 10 am to 10 pm and Sept 28 from 10 am to 6 pm Warren Dieffenderfer 524 Anthony St Williamsport is making show arrangements The Holiday Inn is on Rt 220 between Williamsport and Montoursville The show is open to the public admission free desegregation lawsuits The amendment's effect would have been to keep the Justice Department from advocating busing But it would not have impaired role of enforcing court -issued busing orders which might result from such lawsuits The amendment was proposed to a bill (HR 8121) appropriating $62 billion for the departments of State Justice and Commerce through Sept 30 1976 HR 8121 was later passed and sent to conference with the House In general supporters of tabling the amendment favor busing as a desegregation tool Opponents of tabling generally oppose busing and said the amendment expressed what they see as a growing national tide of ended and that it time that the federal government stop funding programs that states would ordinarily have little interest in if it were not for the federal One opponent Rep Spark Mat-sunaga D-Hawaii said die amendment would the entire because state and local governments will find it difficult to come up with the 50 per cent matching payment Reps Shuster R-9 and Albert Johnson R-23 voted SENATE BUSING: Tabled 42 for and 35 against an amendment preventing the Justice Department from school busing as a remedy in school federal government puts up 75 per cent of the cost and the state or local participant puts up 25 per cent State and local recipients are required to use the money to improve the quality of their service to taxpayers The amendment was attached to a bill (HR 4415) extending the Intergovernmental Personnel Act through Sept 30 1978 HR 4415 authorizes $50 million a year to fund the program The bill was sent to the Senate Supporters said the original intent of Congress was that programs under the act would eventually be funded on a 50-50 basis beginning in July 1975 Rep John Rousselot R-Calif said the for the states has Coal Study To Identify Impact Before

harbors is under vigorous assault in Pennsylvania as it prepares for a substantial increase of coal production and use in the next decade The Pennsylvania Science and Engineering Foundation has advanced the attack with a grant to the University for the development of an operation that would permit the impact of future coal production to be assesses long before any shovels turn Dr Gregory Knight associate professor of geography and Dr Charles Manilla associate professor of mining engineering are co-directors of the new project Pennsylvania Also involved are Dr Richard Gordon a mineral economist and Dr John Sibert a geographer Dr Thomas Bates a mineralogist is participating in the long-range planning aspects a conservation ethic is to prevail in our coming struggle for energy independence using Dr Knight said are going to have to have some system for reckoning with the social and environmental as well as technological costs of stepped-up The Penn State team will develop a mathematical model that will enable decision-makers to by simulation a wide variety of mining and production scenarios and see their local regional and statewide effects the he said should be able to project for instance the employment and income that might be generated by new mining in a particular region will then be up to decision-makers to weigh that factor against say the potential land disturbance that might result Most important it will enable them to consider alternatives on paper in terms of what people want (for example inexpensive power) and trade offs they may find unacceptable (for example loss of environmental quality)" The intelligence to be put into the model includes geographical factors coal type? and their suitability for one or another processing technique mining and production costs and transportation capacities "The quantity of hopper cars needed in 1983 to handle 120 million tons of coal a year instead of the present 80 million could be derived from the Dr Knight said "For a variety of future scenarios a whole cascade of possible consequences can be simulated played-out and For example scenarios could be developed to simulate the effect of air pollution requirements on the types of coals that might be mined and die location and nature of the mining operation Data will be gathered from the Federal Energy Administration the Energy Resource and Development Administration the Bureau of Mines and other agencies as well as from Penn own coal data bank where coal characteristics from some 1600 major seams is already being assembled A board of advisors to the project has been formed including representatives of the utility and production industries as well as planning agencies and environmental groups we are trying to
