It was the second time in recent weeks a congressional panel has charged the Department of Health, Education and Welfare with mismanagement federal-stat- e in the $16 billion-a-yeprogram of medical care for the needy. The charges, from both Democrats and Republicans, generally have gone unchallenged by the administration. The new report by a House oversight and investigations subcommittee said about 12.9 million needy children under age 21 were eligible for medical examinations and treatment in 1975 under a law that was to have taken effect in 1969. But 10.9 million of the eligible children were left unexamined and untreated, the report said. The subcommittee finds that mismanagement by HEW of this program has caused unnecessary crippling, retardation, or even death of thousands 01 subcommittee chairman John Moss, children, said in a letter to the House Commerce Committee. The subcommittee report was approved by a 10-- 1 vote with only Rep. James Collins, B-- ex. . dissenting. Under the law, routine Medicaid health examinations for poor children up to age 21 and treatment where necessary were to begin July 1, 1969. But HEW was up to four years late in issuing regulations for full implementation and has failed to properly penalize states failing to meet program requirements, Moss said.

He said one technique showing promise in reducing coal pollution is the fluidized bed process in which pulverized coal and limestone are mixed in the furnace. The carbon dioxide problem, Liverman said, is one that scientists have worried about off and on for years. Recently, he said, new reports in both the United States and Europe renewed concerns that carbon dioxide pollution might alter the atmosphere and cause it to trap more of the suns heat like a greenhouse roof, raising terrestrial temperatures and perhaps melting polar see caps. &A Thursday, answermg a question about which energy source, including atomic energy, poses the worst environmental threat. If you could get pure carbon, that would be one thing. But when you mine coal you also get shale, and shale contains radium, vanadium, 3ulfur and a lot of other things. Its a real garbage pail. So my own feeling is that coal is the dirtier (of todays energy sources). We should not go to direct combustion of coal unless we add (smoke stack) scrubbers and a lot of other things.
