Think Bill On Busing Will Pass
Washington reports anti busing forces claim votes to back President Nixon’s desegregation bill. The plan sets guidelines for court orders as a last resort, bars busing for sixth grade and below beyond the second nearest school, and would divert half of funded aid to upgrade educational offerings. Proposals include constitutional amendments banning all busing to achieve racial balance and shifting grade school provisions to higher levels, with Republican and Southern lawmakers divided but some confident of passage.
