...accessories and truck weight. In the Interstate system, which is supposed to cost $46.8 billion by the time it is finished in 1972, the Federal Government pays 90% of the cost and the local governments chip in 10%.

The Economicare principle, however, is that what...
...seven months, the West German government last week bowed to election-year pressures and decided to increase subsidies to its faltering coal industry, which already receives more than $150 million a year in subsidies. If the European Coal and Steel Community approves, Bonn will pick up another $11 million tab this year in order to let miners spend part of their time at repair work instead of digging, will guarantee $60 million in bank credits to buy surplus coal and spend $40 million more over four years to store...
