WASHINGTON (AP)—The House passed a major consumer protection bill Wednesday after shouting down an attempt to aid guns to a list of products that are illegal in a proposed federal commission.
The House accepted its own version of legislation aimed at protecting the public from unsafe products used around the home or schools, instead of a more efficient way to do so. Senate. The vote was 318 to 30.
Republicans abandoned thoughts of proposing a substitute arrangement which the Nixon administration favored. This
would have vested product safety authority under the Food and Drug Administration within the Education and Welfare Department.
The key feature of the House-
passed legislation is the in-

new commission which would be

The authority of this commission would extend to a wide range of everyday products, from washing machines to football
The Senate-passed bill contains similar provisions along the independent branch that would assist FDA in the process. The Senate measure would create a food drug and alcohol program to power to take unsafe items off the shelf and to ban the making of any items carrying unreasonable amounts of alcohol.

WASHINGTON (AP) -Senate House conferences on the $30.1-billion revenue sharing bill have approved a bill that would annual federal grants for the Social Services program of aid to welfare recipients and potential beneficiaries.
The federal government would continue to provide $3 for every $1 put up by the states to finance the services.
The two bills will go to a House Senate conference committee for compromising.
However, a state would not get to present a plan for approval or education and Welfare Department.
Each state would have its own share of the $2.5-billion ceiling based on its proportion of the national population.
House specifically excels food drugs, cosmetics, motor vehicles tobacco, pesticides, weapons and ammunition.
The states would be directed to spend the funds first for family planning services, day care and medical care, which are recently retarded, alcoholics and drug addicts. Of the remainder, 90 per cent must go to other services for welfare recipients who are being used for potential recipients.
Others have been spending much less than they will be allowed.
The ceilings will result in cutbacks in some states that have pushed the Social Services program aggressively.
In millions of dollars, the individual state ceilings, as listed by the Council of State Governments. include:
Iowa 34.5, Kansas 27.5,
Missouri 57.1, Nebraska 18.1,
Oklahoma 31.3
WASHINGTON (AP)—Expansion of food-safety laws to ban the use of birth defects "would essentially ban all food ingredients and most foods," the head of the Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday.
His assessment was quickly challenged.
The law banning food additives that cause cancer in man or animal, and the artificial sweetener cyclamate and to cattle-growth drug DES, and threatens saccharin and the sodium nitrate preservatives.
Edwards said he favored reevaluation of the so-called Delaney Clause, already on the list, that could be "addressed as an increasing problem."
"It is likely that all substances, other natural or synthetic food ingredients, will be fed at a high enough level for a period of time, will produce some chemical reaction and become missioner Charles C. Edwards told the Senate Select Committee to reconsider.
"Carried to its logical extreme," Edwards said, the Delaney Clause would ban "all food containing such carcasses in all immensal contaminants as traumatic radioactive material."
His arguments against Delaney were termed "red herrings" and "totally ambivalent" by another witness, Dr. Samuel S. Epstein, at the University of Missouri mental health at Western Reserve University in Cleveland.
FDA Plays Down Idea Of Tougher Food Laws
German Report Defends Police Role in Shootout
In the report, released Wednesday, the Bavarian government rejected criticism that not enough police were used in the attack. "It's a bloody nightmare. It did not cite any errors by police or officials."
The report, written primarily by the Bavarian state government, was used Monday by a Bonn parliamentary committee as a major reason for approving and official handling of the offence.
B O N N ( A P ) — T he "aggressiveness and murderous intent" of Arab terrorists helped make it impossible to prevent their Olympics' death raid, West German authorities aid in a case which was used as a basis for clearing officials of any blame.
A Bonn government spokesman was asked at a news conference if the report expressed disagreement with Chancellor Willy Brandt had ord. red. He said the report plus the parliamentary committee hearings based on it presented such an investigation.
THE TERRORIST ATTACK in Munich Sept. 5, ended in the massacre of 11 Israeli hostages, the murders of cervillas and one policeman.
PARLIAMENT'S Internal Affairs Committee voted unanimously to absolve federal and local officials of blame, after
reading the report and spending a few hours questioning officials secretly.
The 71-page report was in three parts.
The Bavarian government was the first party to about Olympic security, beforeraid, and the third part, about the second part, about the Bavarian government, jointly wrote the second part, about the abortive negotiations to free the city.
IN THE SECOND section, they said after Israel refused the help of the Palestinian Arab guerrilla prisoners and the Munich terrorists refused to modify their demands, the governments decided jointly they had no other choice but to try to kill the terrorists before they could board planes.
The Bavarian government, in the report's third section, said police dared not storm or shoot at hostages and some of the hostages and some of the guerrillas, for fear of hurting the Israelis. This was rued out "under the given situation and the determination and firepower of the attackers."
Epstein said he was unaware of any food additive that was carcinogenic, teratogenic or toxic, the could not be safely removed.
Edwards said the present law could result in a ban on the essential nutrient selenium in animal feeds. The proposed additional test for teratogenesis "would lead to serious immediate health problems," the nutrients and other compounds would be banned," he said.
He said an all-or-nothing law should be made more flexible, allowing safe levels for use of additives in human foods.
But Epstein said it was impossible to find safe levels for cancer-causing substances.
TOPEKA (AP) -Gov. Robert Docking disclosed Wednesday he has accepted an invitation from the state board to lead Topeka for a joint television appearance with his Republican opponent in the November election.

Dreiling said the broadcast media people "have been most cooperative."

UNITED NATIONS (AP)—The committee that screens the General Assembly agenda turned down Wednesday a Chinese-Soviet move for debate on U.S. troops in Korea, and heard a plea from Secretary-General Kurt Kurtz for action to stop terrorism.
Dreiling, in a statement issued through state Democratic headquarters here, said, "He asked me to inform her of the difficulty to ask that rebuttal be denied, that there be no opening or closing statements, and that programs include other state candidates, instead of the gubernatorial nominee only and not the public." He asked one hour to 30 minutes.
Docking OKs TV Debate Against Kay
one 25-nation committee voted to 6 to 7 with one abstention to postponement until next year of the proposal by communist and some nonaligned organizations of American troops from Korea.
Kay's silence on the matter of the joint appearances brought a charge from Norbert Dreiling, state Democratic chairman.
Docking has accepted several joint broadcast appearances with the BBC television stations. Kay has not disclosed whether he has accted.
Docking agreed to meet Morris Kay in an 30 minute telecast to be taped Oct. 25 and shown on the air of the program or one of the two next evenings.
Walheim went before the committee after the Korea vote on Saturday and said that if the United Nations did not take some action "the climate did not take some action."
"Since I became secretary-general I have often had the feeling that, over serious injuries and physical assaults in United Nations are criticized if we do act and criticized if we do not act," he said. "I believe that as secretary-general I should, in a responsible way, choose the former alternative."
The committee will meet again day for action on Waldheim's thesis. It is a matter of the number of proposals for the consideration by the 27th General Assembly.
