Backers press House vote on desegregation aid bill
In Washington, backers of the Emergency School Aid Act seek a House floor vote by early next month with Speaker Carl Albert's implicit backing. The measure would authorize 1.5 billion dollars over two years to help districts desegregate, as ordered by courts or federal agencies or pursued voluntarily. House Rules blocked it from the emergency bills calendar, though supporters insist Albert will seek a rule.
