Nixon signs education aid bill amid busing clash
President Nixon signed a 19 billion higher education aid bill while condemning Congress for rhetoric on court ordered busing. The measure delays new desegregation orders to 1974 and tightens limits on busing as a remedy. He pledged a campaign push and possible constitutional amendment if Congress blocks his plan. Rep. Perkins accused Nixon of playing politics to keep the issue alive.
