El Paso project
may cause MO
traffic jam
EL PASO (AP) — The traffic jam
that ate El Paso is coming soon to
this West Texas city’s stretch of In
terstate 10, the main artery from
Jacksonville, Fla., to Los Angeles.
Whether it be commuters in this
dusty border city or vacationers
making cross-country trips this sum
mer, a project to widen part of Inter
state 10 from three to four lanes will
slow them down faster than a high
way patrolman in a rear-view mir
ror.
In fact, the $25 million project to
expand a 2.9-mile section of the
highway is expected to ground traf
fic to a crawl, officials said.
Local residents can skirt the sec
tion under construction by taking
side streets or vary their commuting
hours to and from work to avoid
rush-hour traffic.
El Paso, spread along the north
bank of the Rio Grande, is nearly bi
sected into east and west by the
Franklin Mountains, which end just
north of I-10. The only quick way to
get from one side of the city to the
other is on the freeway.
The project, funded by federal
and state monies, will take about 2!/a
years. But six months before it is fin
ished, expansion of another section
of I-10 is scheduled to start. It will be
years before I-10 is free of concrete
barricades and yellow flashing lights.
“We’re not going to close it
down,” said Betty Best, a spokeswo
man for the local office of the Texas
Highways and Public Transporta
tion Department. “There’ll still be
three lanes going in each direction.
They’ll just be a little narrower.”

in authorized residential areas, not

Anglican Bishop Desmond Tutu,
one of the country’s best-known
black leaders, cautioned blacks to
“be aware of the small print” in the
government policy statement.
“Some form of influx control may
be brought in through the back
door.” said Tutu, who won the 1984
Nobel Peace Prize and has just been

elected archbishop of Cape Town.
Murphy Morobe, a spokesman for
the anti-apartheid United Demo
cratic Front coalition, questioned
whether the government would de
segregate neighborhoods and give
blacks a significant political role.
President P.W. Botha “still has to
answer on the question of political
representation for blacks at the deci
sion-making level,” Morobe said.
Reaction from white moderates
was more enthusiastic. Colin Eglin,
leader of the opposition Progressive
Federal Party, predicted an eco
nomic upturn for the country when
it became "free from then
of the past . . . and imbued
new positive spirit.”
The South African
Race Relations, a private oi

Gramm-Rudmon
(continued from page 1)
Several justices seemed to agree
that the comptroller general is a leg
islative officer, not an independent
agent as defenders of Gramm-Rud-
man insist.
Steven R. Ross, representing the
bipartisan leadership of the House,
said Congress picked Bowsher for
the key role in Gramm-Rudman out
of painstaking compromise.
He was chosen to set the deficit-
reduction figures “in order to insure
these calculations were walled off
from political considerations,” Ross
said.
But Justice Sandra Day O’Connor
asked, “Wouldn’t you concede the
historic role of the comptroller gen
eral is an employee of the legislative
branch?”
Justice William H. Rehnquist, re
calling his days as a Justice Depart
ment lawyer in the Nixon adminis
tration, added: “If the president
wanted a favorable opinion, he went
to the attorney general. If Congress
wanted a favorable opinion, it went
to the comptroller general.”
Cutler argued that the powers
granted the comptroller general are
not unique, noting that several fed
eral agencies headed by officers who
serve fixed terms and may not be re
moved at will by the president.
Cutler said if the Cramm-Rud-
man law is declared unconstitu
tional, “you would take over the
