I I will ktH'p you posted about our { 1 rogrcs.t in this area. I A miijor feature of the legis lation before my siibeommilleo I is a section dealing with school I bus safety. .Some two billion pas- smiger miles are tiaveleel each year by .school children in school hii.ses. And more important, some .0,000 children arc injuix'd and 90 children killed in ^ .il bus acckicni.s each ' ..,juite sim ply, in let-’" .safely equip ment ,.,al!itions, a child is 1 .u.cr in his patents’ auto- ..looile than he is in the school bus. The death and injury data presented before the subcommit tee clearly indicates the need for providing each school 'bus occu pant with a safe prolectiv^e seat ing area and in the case of acci dent with the means of keeping an occupant within the seating area. A primary cause of child death in .school bus crashe.s is the tossing of the child against hard objects in the bus or the tossing of the child out of the bus. New standards in busi construc tion will be required. There are, according to studies, far loo many cases where seats are in- ade<|unlely connected to the floor or wine the side wall structuie is unable to withstand the stress of rollever or side collision acci dents. In my opinion, it is im portant that the chas.sis and body of school buses b<‘ construcaed to minimize rather than multiply the chance of bodily injury to school children. In addition to improving the structural safety of the school bus, the subcommittee is lookin i to commit out- and safer Yrfe^:=•« heing sent ^3cUons af compaI^'*t^Th*t‘i^ nar^Tt?'

The certit|c;ition procedure is simple, according to John Cline, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (.4 SCSI county committee chairman. It involves a tr|p to the ASCS county office where the producer signs a dec laration that states exactly the acreage he has in program crops, the acreage he has set aside, if any, and affirms that he has complied with all pro gram regulation and will continue to do so. Cline urged farmers to cortjfy compliance as soon as possible. “It is to everyone’s advantage for | a farmer to ctrtify just as soon as he’s sure that he meets all the retiuirements," he added. The county AEiCS office can be gin processing data for payment to a producer as soon as he cer-1 tifies compliance. Although speed ;s important, accuracy shouldn't be sacrificed [ just to get certification comp-let- ' ed, according to Cline. "The state-! ment represents the farmer’s pledge that he has followed and : will continue to follow program ^ regulations,” he said.
