Gordon, whose 1975 school desegregation order requiring the busing of thousands of pupils earned him much enmity from residents of this Ohio River community, has again come down on the side of busing. He has declared unconstitutional a state law that would have undermined his edict by sharply curtailing the use of state funds for transporting public school pupils. A state legislature, Gordon ruled, cripple a federal court's desegregation order by enacting subtly drafted legislation which on its face appears constitutional but which in practice has the effect of eliminating transportation costs" which the county would otherwise receive. "If the court permitted such a result, our desegregation order would soon deteriorate into a mere piece of paper which political forces under the presures of current public opinion could render ineffective," Gordon added. The Kentucky law, approved last March, prohibited the use of state funds to pay for transporting pupils beyond schools nearest their homes.
The act provided exceptions for handicapped and vocational school pupils and for situations in which pupils could not attend nearby schools because of lack of space. Jefferson County officials have estimated that the law would have cost the county school system about $1 million for the 1975-76 school year. The county school board was the plaintiff in the case.

Warren court to pay debt on bridge Warren County fiscal court received approval for a budget amendment allowing it to spend $18,284 of surplus revenue sharing funds to pay for the debt on Goodrum Bridge. The bridge, which was washed away by heavy rains in 1974, was replaced but the contractor ran about $21,000 over contract price. The revenue sharing budget transfer allows the county to pay the outstanding debt on the bridge without affecting other accounts.
The county has about $200,000 in surplus revenue sharing funds. County Judge Basil Griffin told the magistrates federal monies, may be forthcoming for replacement of bridges on Old Scottsville and Greencastle roads. Congressional action on a roads bill is expected soon, he said. He also told the magistrates that monies, from the Public Works bill recently passed by Congress may not be available to the county because unemployment here is too low. He said the unemployment rate here is only about 4.8 per cent.
