for commercial use by 1976 or
1977.
The Boeing Co., Seattle, has a
contract to build two prototype

$1.5 billion on the program by

States must develop its own
model to remain competitive
with the French-British Con-

Both the foreign models have
flown, but are not expected to
be in commercial use until the
1970s.

WASHINGTON < API - The
supersonic transport, which has
generated almost as much noise
within government as critics
say it would in flight, faces a
doubtful future at the hands of a
budget-conscious White House
A final decision on the contro-
versial program is expected
soon after a report goes to Pres-
ident Nixon this week from Sec-
retary of Transportation John
Volpe
Volpe has until recently been
an outspoken supporter of devel-
oping an American SST and for
this reason the report is expect-
ed to be favorable if not an out-
right recommendation for con-
tinued work.
Spadework for the report,
however, was done by a review
board of Cabinet undersecretar-
ies and high-level agency heads
known to have included bitter
critics of the SST.
Although the report is likely
to carry considerable weight it
goes to the White House at a
time when President Nixon is
combing the budget for soft
spots and may be reluctant to
restore funds that former Presi-
dent Johnson left out of his
budget.
Volpe took note of this in a re-
cent interview with the Asso-
ciated Press when he said “all
of us recognize the inflationary
picture.”
Program leaders have esti-
all this, it says The concept
is, of course. "separate develop-
who may well be capable of
work more complex than push
THE BIG hitch in the logic
is that the economy rests on
black backs and the enforced
cheap labor (it is a criminal
offense not to report for work >
If Africans were indeed to con-
trol their own destinies in their
own states, the labor supply in
the "white areas" would wither
away

The suggestion for armed
guards was made by Chairman
L. Mendel Rivers, D-S.C. of the
House Armed Services Commit-

said, in the wake of many hi-

ment" or Apartheid. The plan is
to establish eight "Bantustans"
or black-ruled states within
South Afica where Africans will
possess the rights of which they
have been deprived in white
areas
The Bantustans are to com-
prise some 13 per cent of the
land area of the country. The
white South Aficans, 26 per cent
of the population, will continue
to occupy the remaining 87 per
cent.
Although but one Bantustan,
the Transkei. has been es-
tablished. the government has
already promulgated the fiction
that black and white states al-
ready exist and that Africans
in "white areas" are merely
“temporary sojourners,” for-

can be moved hundreds of

If he is injured on the street,
he cannot be treated until a

a city hotel.
He is essentially illiterate,
having had only four years of
education. More would have
cost his parents’ considerable
money (education for whites is
free).
