"YOU CAN'T order business to make a product, they have a responsibility to their stockholders," he said. "The com- panies make what they think they can sell." Davenport said the election year "may have accelerated the decision." and that if this program were needed in a non- election year "Congress would have de- bated and time could have run out." Trial doses of vaccine have already been made and are in the process of being tested, for this, the largest innocu- lation program ever attempted. Dasen- port said it is not yet known whether the vaccine works or if the industry will be willing to go through with production. But, he projects innoculations will start by August for "high risk" persons, elder- ly and women in the last trimester of pregnancy. Davenport maintains total faith in the lu plan industrial capacity of the four major drug manufacturers and is convinced that once production moves into high gear the tar- geted 200 million doses will be met. Prior to this, 50million vaccinations was the highest ever attempted. Part of the $135 million needed to make the vaccine available on this scale will go to chicken farmers for eggs, which are needed to produce the vaccine. Both egg and chicken prices may rise as a result of the amount of vaccine being produced.

"I've recently received word from Rep. Paul Rosenbaum, chairman of the~Judiciary Com- mittee, that he feels the bill is unconstitutional," said Rep. Melvin DeStigter (R-Allendale). "REP. Stephen Stopczynski, who chairstthe Liquor Control Committee, refuses to put these bills on the committee agenda for consideration. In fact, the liquor committee is not meet- ing on a regular basis so that those members who want to consider these two bills can bring them up for discussion.," DeStigter called the claim that the proposals are unconsti- tutional "a weak argument against bringing them up for discussion." Since the two bills were in- troduced, they have gained the support of law enforcement agencies and school groups. "The legislature has the power to establish the levels at which people pay taxes, drive automobiles, work, vote and drink," DeStigter said. "If we had the authority to lower the drinking age in 1972, we have the authority to raise it in 1976." THE DRINKING age was dropped to 18 after the state's voters approved a constitution- al amendment lowering the age of majority from 21 to 18.. "All I'm asking is that the bills have their full day in court -a full and fair hearing so that people on both sides of this issue can be heard," De- Stigter said. "I'm convinced that the two bills can stand on their own and arguments for raising the drinking age will overshadow arguments against the propo- sal." DESTIGTER said he thinks the liquor lobby has prevented If you want to test for starch in foods, add a few drops of iodine which always prolices a purple color in anything tli- contains starch. the bills from coming debate. "Since the drinking lowered to 18 by the le in 1972, the number of traffic accidents involving drinking by those between 18 and 21 have increased," he said. "There also have been prob- lems in schools resulting from drinking, including making al- coholic beverages more easily obtainable by 15 and 16-year- olds."
