Without its lobbying strength, "the chance of maintaining and increasing the level of federal funding to education will be lessened," Fortes said. Instead of vying for a piece of die budget pie at the Cabinet level, education programs will fall Into other departments and compete against other programs for funding, he Hid. Forbes predicted education funding under Reagan will continue to decline. And states will fed the impact as the administration goes forward with plans to distribute education funds in' block grants, he said. Current federal programs Important to county school districts like the Title 1 elementary tutoring project probably would be maintained by the state.

Fortes said. The Florida Solar Energy Center in Cape Ca naveral now has about 5600,000 worth of federal grants from the Department of Energy, said Director Dr. David Block. But ending DOB grants doesn't concern Block as much as the Reagan administration's energy policy. Solar, fossil fuel, and conservation programs are being abondoned for a "narrow" reliance on nuclear nergy.

hesald. Some form of organisation Is needed at tin federal level, )f only to coordinate an exchange of information. Block said. But it's a mistake to abandon a "baU anced" energy program, he said. "This ll a real shortsighted policy," Block said.

"Moving away from these other programs is giving the public a feeling the energy problem is solved and will go away, "'We're seeing new Industries (solar) develop, and the effect will be devastating If the policy Is to phase out of other energy programs."
