President Pushes Moratorium Countrywide Education Reform
The proposed equal educational opportunities law would bar denial of equal educational opportunities due to race. It would set remedies for desegregation, require busing only as a last resort under strict limits, and concentrate federal school aid to areas with the greatest need. Nixon would subsidize below-par schools using 1.5 billion from the 1965 act plus 1 billion from emergency aid, awaiting Senate House conference action. The emergency aid would expire June 30 1974, and Nixon urges confirmation.
