California Transportation: Inventory and Prospects
Article Abstract:
Major improvements are required for California's transportation system. A crisis in transportation funding exists. Tax revenues are insufficient to solve the transportation problems. New sources of revenue and more efficient management are needed. The relationship between transportation and economic development is emphasized. Government programs are not able to increase funding for transportation. Transportation management strategies include user pricing, reduction of congestion techniques, greater reliance on private sector, and more efficient use of existing facilities.

Census Countdown
Article Abstract:
As the results of the 1980 Census are coming in, reports of errors and undercounts are rampant, despite the use of costly, sophisticated equipment and methods. The resulting confusion is causing anxiety over Congressional District counts and possible reductions in federal aid. The West seems to be gaining House seats while population is reducing in midwestern and Mideastern areas. An explanation and examples are given of the term 'Gerrymandering'.
