"The greatest harm from the Three Mile Island accident was its severe emotional impact on an ill-informed and easily frightened public, especially near the plant," said Rep. Mike Mc- Cormack (D-Wash.), chairman of the subcommittee. "This emotional damage was severely aggravated by the continued sensational treatment of the story by much of the press and media." THE REPORT was sharply criticized by two members of the panel, Reps. Howard Wolpe (D-Mich.), and Richard Ottinger (D-N.Y.). They claimed the report was a classic example of blaming the victim. The major recommendations of the report sidestep the issue of nuclear safety, ac- cording to Wolpe and Ottinger. "According to the report, it is an uninformed public, rather than the ac- cident at Three Mile Island, that is to be blamed for the present widespread concern about the competence of the nuclear industry and the adequacy of Daily Official Bulletin FRIDAY, APRIL 4. 1980 Daily Calendar: Center for South & Southwestern Asian Studies: Philip Cummingham, "Thai News Magazine," Lane Commons, noon.

THE ENERGY subcommittee of the House Committee on Science and Technology said that "although it may not have been apparent to the public at the time of the accident, a disaster was never imminent" at Three Mile Island near Harrisburg, Pa., just one year ago. Two other reports have stressed the need for new safeguards in the nuclear power industry. Last January, a report prepared for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) said similar accidents could happen at a number of plants and recommended future nuclear in- stallations be built at least 10 miles from any city. LIKE AN earlier report by a presidential commission, it also urged replacing the NRC with a single ad- ministrator. And it said licensing procedures should be tightened before any new plants are approved for con- struction. The McCormack subcommittee report, however, said that "continued delay in. licensing of new plants is beyond that necessary to assure the adequate safety of nuclear power plan- ts." In their dissent, Wolpe and Ottinger said the report depended almost ex- clusively on nuclear power advocates who testified before the panel. "Ultimately it will be for the American people, and not for advocates of nuclear energy, to determine the ac- ceptability of the risks of nuclear power," they said. Wolpe and Ottinger also said the report would further damage public confidence in the objectivity of Congress. McCormack told a news conference that radioactivity whicif escaped from the Three Mile Island plant was so minimal that there is far more background radiation in other parts of the country. l I .

Ironically, long-term unemployment in the auto industry has declined for the fourth straight week to 160,000 indefinitely- idled U.S. hourly workers. The cutbacks are blamed on a continuing decline in sales and produc- tion. U.S. car output so far this year lags 25 per cent behind last year, while sales are off nearly 11 per cent. Truck production is off 52 per cent. Senate proposes budget cuts WASHINGTON - The Senate Budget Committee voted yesterday to eliminate federal revenue sharing for states and cut the federal bureaucracy by five per cent across the board, as it nears completion of a balanced 1981 budget. In its proposed budget, the Senate panel voted to eliminate Saturday mail delivery, phase out 200,000 CETA public service jobs, cut the food stamp program, and trim student loan programs among others. Last month, the House Budget Committee proposed a $611.8 billion 1981 budget that also contained less money for defense and more for domestic programs than the Senate committee's version. Lance acquitted of conspiracy ATLANTA - A federaljudge said yesterday he would order former federal director Bert Lance acquitted on charges of bank fraud conspiracy. That will leave intact 32 specific allegations of fraud against Lance and three associates. U.S. District Judge Charles A. Moye Jr. said evidence presented by the government during the 12-week trial could not be considered proof of a con- spiracy. The government plans to wrap up'its case with evidence from five FBI agents who analyzed bank records that are evidence in the case. But their testimony will be confined to the specific transactions involved in the remaining counts of the indictment. Bristol riot stuns Britain BRISTOL, England - Rock and bottle-throwing battles between up to 3,000 youths and outnumbered, unarmed policemen exploded Wednesday in a decayed area of Bristol when police raided a black-patronized cafe and fighting broke out. THere were no deaths but 21 policemen and eight civilians were hospitalized with injuries from the night-long disorders in the port city 110 miles west of London. Insurance assessors said damage claims could ap- proach more than $2 billion. Some black residents said police harassment and discrimination had the black community ready to explode. Home Secretary William Whitelaw told the House of Commons in London that it was "not in any sense a race riot." Inflation fighters thanked WASHINGTON-President Carter yesterday thanked retail grocers and druggists for their "patriotic and helpful" price freezes. Carter invited food and drug executives to the White House to show his appreciation for their voluntary participation in his price control program. The White House said 6,796 food stores froze prices for 30 to 150 days. In addition, 21 drug chains representing more than 2,800 stores informed the White House they have price ceiling programs lasti gfor60 to 90 days. Safeway, A and P and Grand Union, three of the nation's largest grocery chains, announced they would continue price controls for another 30 days. Palestinian activist detained JERUSALEM - Israel detained a leading Palestinian activist for questioning yesterday, and Israeli rightists mounted pressure on Prime Minister Menachem Begin to refuse to make concessions in summit talks with President Carter this month. In continuing efforts to quell the wave of unrest in the occupied West Bank of the Jordan River, Israeli authorities called Dr. Ahmed Bamzi Nat- she to the military police headquarters in Bethlehem. Natshe allegedly had made an anti-Israeli speech at a Palestinian rally in the West Bank town of Hebron on Wednesday. Locomotive crash releases toxic gas over Boston SOMERVILLE, Mass. - 74 persons were hospitalized and 2,000 others evacuated when clouds of toxic gas wafted over the Boston area early yesterday. According to officials, a Boston & Maine locomotive struck a tank car carrying 1,300 gallons of phosphorus trichloride, a chemical used in water treatment. The car was bound for a Monsanto Chemical plant in Everett, Mass. A ' '' U THE GREAT VIGIL OF EASTER UALB SATURDAY, APRIL 5-8 p.m. Striking of the New Fire.
