busing is connected with upcoming primary elections said today one of the alternatives he is considering is that the courts impose busing only as a last resort Administration sources say the President is considering ways to use federal money to help schools avoid extensive busing and that he also is considering seeking legislation to strengthen the so-call- ed “Esch amendment” requiring that busing be imposed only as a last resort The amendment named after is Rep Marvin L Esch part of the 1964 Civil Rights Act It requires that other methods of desegregation be tried before busing is imposed — and that busing be used only as a last resort if all other methods fail Despite the administrative and legislative alternatives to curbing busing the first action in Ford’s offensive will come on the judicial front if Atty Gen Edward H Levi decides to intervene in the Boston school case in an effort to seek new Supreme Court guidelines Ford has said Levi might use the Louisville Ky busing case as a vehicle for intervention But Justice Department spokesman Robert Havel repeated today that “Louiseville is not under con- sideration” Levi explains his views on legal intervention at a meeting with Ford later in the day White House Press Secretary Ron Nessen said he understands that Levi “is not ready to make a decision” on whether or not to intervene Nessen said Levi’s meeting with the President was to present “more or less a progress report” Park mishap claims youth YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK Wyo (AP) — A California youth died Monday after suffering a severe skull fracture in a fall in Yellowstone National Park officials say Lawrence Crawford of Concord Calif died at a hospital in Bozeman Mont late Monday night after falling while climbing a cliff in an area west of Old Faithful said acting Assistant Park Supt Mac Berg Berg said Crawford was an employee of Yellowstone Park Co which operates restaurants and hotels in the park Asked if Ford or White House aides have been pressuring Levi to make a decision Nessen said: “There’s no pressure from the White House” Havel said Levi probably will make his decision this week He said the attorney general “probably leans” toward the view that the scope of busing should be limited In a session with Tennessee visiting reporters "‘'Ford stopped short of saying he is considering new legislation to bolster the Esch amendment but said one alternative he is studying is for the courts “to follow the Esch so-call- ed amendment” “If the courts would follow the p process set forth in that legislation they could get quality education without forced busing” Ford declared He offered no instance in which he thinks the courts have ordered busing short of a last resort And he made no mention of trying to find ways to use federal money to help school district reduce step-by-ste- “There are programs which the secretary of education is that I think submitting to me will be helpful in alleviating the problems of any court action” Ford told the group from Tennessee “So we’re trying to find something that’s a better remedy than these decisions by various courts” The President denied that his opposition to forced busing has anything to do with the current presidential campaign “It had no relation whatsoever to any presidential campaign” Ford said “I am against segregation I am for quality education And there is a better way of getting quality education d than by forced court-ordere- busing” White House source said Ford is considering seeking new legislation as part of “a whole range of approaches” to limit the use of busing as a desegregation A tool The source declined to give details on how federal funds could be used to reduce busing busing However Nessen said Ford is ordered by federal courts considering strengthening the Esch amendment but that this is not one of the “three alter- Recycle natives” to forced busing the President has said he is studying Nessen waved a sheet of paper which he said showed the three options Ford is studying but declined to say what they are too has The President declined to specify the three options he is considering This SALT LAKE CITY ( AP) — Sen their
