Burials Costly For Vietnam War Families
A survey shows many U S families pay 300 to 700 dollars beyond government burial allowances for Vietnam dead. Families cite funds from college accounts or savings to cover costs, while funeral homes say the government limit cannot cover full services from cremation to monuments. Officials note allowances vary by transport method and location, with civilian burial costs frequently exceeding the 300 dollar cap.

Arizona educators fret over new school finance law
About 100 educators invited by State School Superintendent Sarah Folsom pressed Attorney General Darrell Smith for answers. Folsom warned parts of the law will be hard to follow, yet districts must comply. Aide Robert Taylor said tax rates drop to near the 10 cent minimum in Globe and Nogales, while annual budget increases may fall below 6 percent for districts spending over thresholds. Educators questioned "instructional costs" and the effects on assessed valuation and budgets, with some fearing a $3 million aid loss to Indians and possible discrimination claims.
