Confusing fuel shortages boost Kansas highway traffic
The Kansas State Highway Commission reports a 3.4 percent rise in traffic from January to May 1973 versus last year, with May 1973 up 4.2 percent. East bound I-70 and west bound counts show 25 and 18.5 percent gains, reflecting rising vacation travel and public disbelief in voluntary conservation despite fuel shortages. Farmers fear insufficient fuel for wheat harvest while the federal government offers unclear guidance.
