PQge,.Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Friday, Jonuary 19, 1973 Page Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Friday, January 19, 1973 News Briefs THE NEW NIXON BUDGET will cut deeply into job, housing, health, and social programs in every city, the U.S. conference of mayors warned yesterday. The conference was joined by the National League of Cities in a warning to 2500 city officials around the country. The warning stated that President Nixon declined an urgent request to meet with con- ference representatives on the cuts "because of his work load in pre- paration of the budget." A prediction that the spending cutbacks "can be a fiscal, economic and political disaster" has been distributed to members by the National Association of Counties in its monthly bulletin. Administration sources confirm privately that the domestic spend- ing cutbacks in the fiscal 1974 budget, to be sent to Congress on Jan.' 29; will exceed most early estimates. * * * * THE FIRST GOVERNMENT WITNESS in the Pentagon Papers trial testified yesterday in Los Angeles that the Defense Depart- ment hurriedly organized a .task force to determine whether the publicized papers related to national defense. The information was elicited by the defense on cross-examination in the first day of testimony at the trial of Daniel Ellsberg andj Anthony Russo. Frank Bartimo, an assistant general counsel at the Department of Defense, admitted under questioning from defense attorney Charles Nesson that he had ordered the department's analysis of whether the secret papers related to national dlefense. * * * * THE LARGESTCIVIL RIGHTS SETTLEMENT in the nation's history was signed Thursday by the American Telephone and Tele- graph Co., providing increased pay and advancement opportunities for women and minorities. The $38 million pact with the Department of Labor and the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission provides that AT&T - the largest private employer in the country - make lump sum pay- ments totalling $15 million to 5,000 workers who the EEOC had claim- ed were victims of "pervasive and systematic" discrimination. Another $23 million per year will go into wage adjustments aimed at raising women and minority males to equal standing with white males in similar jobs. * ,' * * BRANIFF. INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES has been operating a round trip jet charter flight system this week between Los Angeles and Washington for a nonexistent organization attending the inauguration ceremonies. The airline assured the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB), who had waived its rules for the flight, that, all the passengers would be persons of blood or marriage relationship to the Ryan and Nixon fam- dlies. A letter from CAB Secretary Harry Zink to Braniff's legal repre- sentatives here, granting the waiver because of "special and unusual circumstances," was made public today.- However, the flight from Los Angeles was operated Wednesday,; Braniff said. The return flight is scheduled for Jan. 21. The $20,867.76 charter contract was executed with the Inaugural Committee 1973.

NEW YORK (P - The Delaney clause, which bans the use in food of even the smallest amount of any cancer-causing agent, has won overwhelming support at a special scientific meeting. The wide agreement that t h e federal ban should be retained came during two daylong ses- sions of scientists and lawyers from universities, government agencies, and commercial organi- zations at the New York Acad- emy of Sciences. The meeting also produced sharp criticism of the Food and Drug Administration, FDA's top officials were invited to attend the meeting but failed to appear. Dr. Charles Edwards, FDA commissioner, also was criticiz- ed for not supporting the Delaney clause. An FDA spokesman said t h e agency will carefully monitor all of the scientific discusion. The spokesman said Edwards believ- es the Delaney clause does not allow the FDA any flexibility in implementing the law. Edwards also believes the clause should be explored in the scientific c o m- munity before any debate in Con- gress on changing it, the spokes- man said. Scientists who organized the New York meeting said the food industry has attacked the Delan- ey clause because the industry believes the clause unfairly re- stricts the industry's use of food additives. The food industry be- lieves it coud provide better food products by using additives in amounts too small to be harmful, the scientists said. Enacted in 1958, the Delaney clause reads: ".. No additive shall be deem- ed to be safe if it is found to in- duce cancer when ingested by man or animal, or if it is found, after tests which are appropriate for the evaluation of the safety of food additives, to induce cancer in man or animal . .. 5th HIT WEEK !
