Senators earn
$1.7 milinin
outside ineome
WASHINGTON (AP) - Senators
earned $1.7 million in 1981 for making
speeches and writing articles, with
more than half the outside income
provided by business groups, Common
Cause said yesterday.
The self-described citizens' lobby
said that Finance Committee Chairman
Robert Dole (R-Kan.) was the leading
recipient of the so-called honoraria,
getting $66,850, or $6,188 more than the
annual Senate pay of $60,662.
COMMON CAUSE noted, however,
that Dole contributed $30,500 of his out-
side income to various charities. The
second leading recipient was Sen.
Henry Jackson (D-Wash.), who gave
the entire $56,250 to unidentified
charities.
Majority Leader Howard Baker (R-
Tenn.) was third, collecting $54,000 and
giving $13000 of it to charity. The
senate's biggest net gainer was Sen.
Jake Garn (R-Utah) who reported
receiving $48,000 and none of it to
charity.
The report, compiled from disclosure
statements submitted by senators last
year, covered the 95 men and women in
the Senate both in 1981 and 1983.
EIGHT members reported no outside
income in 1981. They were Sens. Lloyd
Bentsen (D-Texas), Dennis DeConcini
(D-Ariz.); John Glenn (D-Ohio); Carl
Levin (D-Mich.); Russell Long (D-
La.); John Stennis (D-Miss.); John
Warner (R-Va.); and Edward Zorinsky
(D-Neb.).
The other 87 shared $1,715.634 - an
average of $19,720 per senator. Twenty-
one of the recipients donated a total of
$175,705 to charity.
Skin cancer linked to
'the Pill,'study says
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Prolonged
use of birth control pills may increase
risk of contracting a form of skin can-
cer, according to a study by a Univer-
sity of California epidemiologist.
The study done on a group of
Washington state residents found that
more women with a type of malignant
melanoma - the superficial spreading
kind - were long-term pill users, com-
pared with women who did not have the
cancer.
PREVIOUS studies had shown a
weak link, or none at all, between pill
use and malignant melanoma, poten-
tially the most dangerous form of skin
cancer.
Melanoma accounts for 2 percent of.
all cancer cases in the United States. Its
overall survival rates are higher then
for most other cancers and depend on
how deeply the tumor has penetrated
the layers of skin tissue.
The superficial spreading type of
melanoma remains in the outermost
layers of skin for a relatively long
period. When treated at very early
stages, the tumor can be removed by
surgery. -
THE STUDY was conducted by Dr.
Elizabeth Holly, an epidemiologist in
the University of California at San
Francisco's Department of
Epidemiology and International
Health, and by colleagues at the
University of Washington in Seattle.
TODAY
Start scratching
NEIL PENNING of Michigan's Public Health Department sums up the
1983 mosquito outlook this way: "Get ready to start scratching." Ex-
perts say an unusually mild winter helped lots of mosquitoes survive in
basements, barns, attics, drains, and burrows. The carry-over population of
adult mosquitoes could explode in a matter of days when temperatures
warm up, Penning said. Others, frozen as larvae, could reach adulthood in
the next two to three weeks, according to Harold Newson, a Michigan State
University entomologist. Just how bad things will get remains to be seen.
Weather will be a key factor. "Nobody really has a crystal ball on these
things, but we know there is a correlation with the weather," Penning said.
