Food Prices Key To Phase III
Coun-
P. M.
WASHINGTON UP) — Presi
dent Nixon cited food prices
Monday as the potential key to
success of his Phase 3 economic
Iprogram — a largely voluntary
effort to keep the lid on infla
tion after wage and price con
trols are disbanded.
Holding a farewell meeting
with members and officials of
the Phase 2 Pay Board and Price
Commission, Nixon pledged con
tinued government efforts to hold
down increases in supermarket
prices.
His comments were relayed to
newsmen by Donald Rumsfeld,
outgoing director of the Cost of
Living Council who joined other
economic officials in the Cabinet
18
Room session.
Rumsfeld said the President
told the group that wage and
price controls helped check infla
tion without inhibiting growth of
the economy but that it is im
portant that the mandatory con
trols be lifted so the economy can
move back toward a free market
system.
“Food prices are a key to mak
ing Phase 3 work,” Rumsfeld
quoted Nixon as saying. He add
ed that the President, in referr
ing to the new program which
depends largely on voluntary
compliance, vowed that he in
tends to make it work.
The food industry remains
under mandatory controls, as the
health and housing segments of
the economy. In addition, the ad
ministration has taken steps to
bolster food supplies by loosen
ing imports and easing crop
planting restrictions.
Meanwhile, Secretary of the
Treasury George P. Shultz told
800 industry executives Monday
that inflation of 2.5 per cent by
the year end is “an ambitious but
an attainable goal” under Phase
3. He said that is partly because
of the President’s fiscal clamp-
down on the government.
Shultz addressed a conference
on Phase 3 rules and standards
arranged at the administration’s
request by the United States
Chamber of Commerce. Nixon’s

5th Grade Students
Plan Model City
Students from College Hills
Elementary School in College
Station participated last week in
a program on the A&M campus
sponsored by the Urban Plan
ning Department of the College
of Architecture.
Claude Davis, professor of
Urban Planning, said the pro
gram was an experiment to see
how fifth-grade students would
go about planning a new city.
“Some of the kids really sur
prised me,” Davis said. “They
really went at the task of laying
out the model city with a sur
prising show of maturity.”
The students were given model
buildings, autos, and airport
structures. They added folded
pieces of paper with printing on
them to form houses, hospitals,
restaurants, and other business
and private dwellings found in a
community.
They held group discussions to
decide placement of housing, bus
iness districts, hospitals, and
park facilities, then transferred
their decisions to large-scale
maps.
“The students decided not to
put hospitals next to railroad
tracks or airports,” Davis said,
“but one group ignored the dan
gers of building on a flood plain.
The same group placed a zoo
near a residential area, but then
decided noise and odor would be
a problem to homeowners in the
area.
“What the experiment showed
more than anything else was that
youngsters are somewhat aware
of the need for good planning in
a community. They found out
that everyone has a different
idea about building location.”
Davis said future exercises
with area students would be bet
ter planned, and more model
structures would be added to the
Urban Planning Department’s
collection.
Davis feels that, by exposing
the students to a planning situa
tion, he and the faculty of the
Urban Planning Department will
stimulate interest in the students
for further pursuit of the subject
when they return to their classes.
Headlight Glare May Aid
In Driving, Says Report
LOS ANGELES UP) — That
glare from headlights coming at
you from down the road may he
uncomfortable, researchers re
ported Monday, but the bright
light may actually help your
driving.
Glare from, motor vehicle head-:
lights ait night has a much great
er psychological effect on motor
ists than the physiological or act
ual visual effect, the researchers
reported.
According to a number of
studies conducted around the
country, they added, under most
driving conditions, two drivers
meeting each other can see far
ther ahead if both are using high
rather than low beams.
The research group, the South
west Research Institute of San
Antonio, Tex., said the probable
cause of most night-time accidents
is failure of headlights to light
up the road well enough.
A solution, the institute said,
may lie in a new headlighting
system now being considered by
the government — a “midbeam”
or “turnpike” system with the
left hand, normally high beam
aimed to the right and slightly
down rather than straight ahead.
The study was reported by Rog
er H. Hemion, an engineer from
the institute, to a science writers
seminar here on ophthalmology.
The session is sponsored by Re
search to Prevent Blindness, Inc.,
a national research foundation in
New York. The study was con
ducted for the U.S. Department
of Transportation.
Glaring headlights do disturb
opposing drivers, and the dis
tance at which an object can be
seen is reduced, but the reduc
tion is not as great as squinting
drivers might fear, the institute
reported.
A pedestrian, Hemion said, can
be seen alongside the road, with
no approaching traffic, at 810
feet with high beams, 430 feet
with low beams.
With another car approaching,
he said, with the same lights, the
pedestrian is visible for 430 feet
with high beams, 360 feet with
low beams.
“The government,” H e m i o A
said, “is presently considering the
adoption of a new headlighting
mode, particularly to improve
this low beam deficiency when
driving in traffic on multilane
highways.”
In addition to realigning the
left-hand high beam, both high
and low beams would be in
creased in intensity.
With the proposed system, a
pedestrian would be visible, with
opposing traffic, at 430 feet on
low beam, 470 feet on midbeam
and 420 feet on high beam.
Without opposing traffic, he
said, a pedestrian would be vis
ible at 580 feet on low beam,
840 feet on midbeam and 990
feet on high beam.
