Engineer Urges McPherson Bridges Repaired With Federal Funds
McPherson County Engineer Francis Rankin asked county commissioners to use federal revenue sharing money to fix unsafe bridges on school bus routes. A three year old survey found 26 of 97 secondary bridges unsafe and needing immediate repair, with estimated costs around 814000. Rankin warned a single bus crossing could put 20 to 30 children at risk.

No Major Tax Reform Expected in 93rd Congress
Sen. Russell B. Long, chair of the Finance Committee, says the 93rd Congress likely will pass no major tax reform. He doubts revenue gains of 15 to 20 billion dollars, suggesting 1 to 2 billion possible from closing loopholes and notes a potential veto by President Nixon. Rep. Wilbur Mills echoes that any reform would not bring large cuts or big revenue.
