Life Styles Kindle Energv Blaze
EDITOR'S NOTE—The American lifestyle is the chief determinant of how fast we burn up our energy sources. The third installment of a four-part series on The Energy May pinch looks at how that lifestyle may have to change to conserve energy.
By STAN BENJAMIN Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - Americans spend energy as if there were no tomorrow, but there is a tomorrow, and that high spending will cause big changes in the nation's lifestyle.
Reviewing possible energy-saving measures last October, the staff of the President's Office of Emergency Management reported it may become necessary to:
- Emphasize travel by mass transit, trains, bicycles and walking to get people out of energy-wasting automobiles and jets. Buses, for example, carry people three to four times more efficiently than automobiles.
- Establish government testing and mandatory labeling of equipment to allow consumers to be aware that samers now have no easy way to select energy-saving equipment, although manufacturers of some air conditioners use a high-performance "efficient ratings" of their products.
—Adopt regulations discouraging downtown auto driving, where start-and-stop conditions waste fuel, and make mass transit more efficient.
-Remove tax advantages from home ownership to discourage construction of single-family dwellings; apartment houses are considered easier to heat, per unit.
The 17th annual Heart of America Debate tournament was scheduled to begin today in the Kansas Union at the University of Kansas. Sixty-one teams from colleges and universities throughout the United States will participate in the tournament.

- As a "highly unpalatable last resort" impose fuel rationing.
The OEP report estimated such measures that would tamper with the habits of Americans could reduce energy consumption by 25 per cent by 1990.

S. David Freeman, former presidential science advisor, said demand could be cut
Even so, nobody says such reductions would actually solve the nation's energy problems that are marked by current and impending shortages of natural gas, petroleum and electricity. The best they can do is to buy time.
Population growth, the mushrooming use of electricity, energy-consuming luxuries, throwaway products and shifts in the patterns of consumption and production—in short, the nation's lifestyle—guarantee that energy demand will keep on growing
NDSL to Survive Proposed Cutbacks
Despite proposed cutbacks in federal funding of higher education, three federally funded financial aid programs will operate at the University of Kansas next year, Jerry Rogers, director of the Office of Student Financial Aid, said Tuesday.
"Don't panic," Rogers said. "There will be programs available to help needy students."
Under President Nikon's proposed budget for fiscal 1974, the National Direct Student Loan (NDSL) program would be eliminated, but schools would be allowed to make new loans from the money repayed on old loans.
Under such a reduced NDSL program, Rogers said, the program could continue to operate at KU with about $500,000 instead of the present $1.1 million.
NDSL loans are available at an interest rate of 3 per cent. This year, 1,000 loans were made to customers.
He said 'that the College Work-Study Program, under which students showing financial need could fill various positions of college students in University, would campus as in the past.
Each year about 600 students participate in the work-study program.
Educational Opportunity Grants (EOG)
will continue either as supplementary
Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG) or
educational Opportunity Grants
(BEOG).
Under the SEOG, Rogers said, the University would not be obligated to match
Under the BEOG, a student would be eligible for up to $1,400 minus his family's contribution. A student can collect no more than $1,000 with the EOG system.
Rogers said that Congress would decide this spring which educational aid program would operate during the 1973-74 school year.
"We will announce details as soon as we know," he said.
Rogers said that students already in the EOG program would probably also qualify for the SBOG or the BEOG, although the requirements for these loans was not yet known.
Three hundred fifty-five students now receive aid through EOG, according to Bernie Taylor, assistant director of financial aid.

Russell E. Train, chairman of the President's Council on Environmental Quality, says the slowdown need not lower the costs of federal education and raise it by shifting the emphasis from industrial production toward better services, education, the arts, recreation and longer-term care.
Multiplying population's impact is the fact that the energy demand per person is rising five times faster than the population itself. The nation's energy demand now doubles every 14 years. Demand for electricity alone doubles every 10 years.
