Show FRIDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1970 i THE SALT LAKE TIMES it should be. Poison Prevention Packaging Bill Approval Noted Senator Moss pointed out that the bill had strong support from the medical and pharmaceutical groups, but had been opposed by the drug manufacturers. I will now push for early acceptance of the conference report by both houses of Congress. I would like to see the bill reach the White House for President Nixons signtaure this week as the current White House Conference on Children is being conducted, he said. Senator Frank E. Moss has announced that the Senate and House conferees have approved a strong version of the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. We really got the best of the two versions of the bill,' said Senator Moss, who was original We mainauthor of the bill. tained the strong language of the Senate version along with some House amendments which make the bill more workable. Senator Moss, who chaired the conference committee meeting said the importance of the bill could not be denied. The bill allows the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, to re' quire hazardous household items to be s Id in containers difficult for children under six years of age to open. At present, roughly one child dies each day because he got into drugs, lye, drain cleaner and the like, Sen. Moss said. Seventy five are hospitalized each day, and perhaps as many as 6,000 get into things that they should not. Senator Moss fought for de feat of one House provision that he said would have negated the entire intent of the bill.. This provision would have called for only one package size of a particular hazardous item to be sold in child resistant package. Thats just the opposite of the Senate version. We had allowed that one size package of a particular item could be sold in a regular container for persons Rare Earth Found In Star Spectrum A rare element that does not exist naturally on earth has been identified in the spectrum of a star by two University of Mich-ga- n astronomers. Working under a National Science Foundation grant, Dr. Mar-- o Friedel Aller and Dr. Charles Cowley have identified prometh-uin an unusual star known as HR 465. Promethium is a shortlived rare earth that heretofore has been known only as a synthetic element. The star in question, HR 465, is located in the constellation Andromeda at the edge of the Milky Way. With a visual magnitude of 6.3, it would be only faintly visible to the naked eye. Astronomers know that it has a moderately strong and variable magnetic field and one of the most complex spectra for stars of its type. The star belongs to a group of hot stars known as peculiar stars which show large overabundances of the rare earth elements. Several theories have been, put forth to explain these anomalies, including the possibility that nuclear reactions build up the heavy elements on the stellar surface. The identification of promethium seems to confirm this theory. m A-ty- pe with arthritis or other problems; which would make it difficult for them to open the child resistant packages. Our Senate version, which prevailed, makes child resistant packaging the norm, rather than the exception and thats the way It THE GIRL OF ANCIENT C GREECE SOLVED THE FASHION DILEMMA OF MINI V5.MIPI THOUSANDS OF YEAR AGO.

Robern D. Nielson, BLM state director for Utah, reported that careful consideration had been given to all comments received at the public hearing, through correspondence, and to data gathered through actual research and field investigations in arriving at a final classification of these lands. It was concluded that an addi-- ; tional 520 acres should be identified as primarily valuable for recreation, historic and administrative sites, and these lands should be reserved against all forms of appropriation under the public land laws including mining laws, but not the mineral leasing laws. There was particular concern for the segregation of proposed primitive areas against mining location in the Dark Canyon and Bridger Jack Mesa areas. Based on our studies and research, we have concluded that mineral values for the foreseeable future in these areas are relatively unimportant in relation to historic, archeologic, scenic, and recreation values. If it is determined through exploration of public lands on the periphery of these proposed primitive areas that significant mineral values appear likely, the classification may be modified, Mr. Nielson said. Mr. Nielson pointed out that this classification will assure continued availability of these public lands for most uses such as mineral leasing, grazing, wildlife habitat, watershed, hunting, rock hounding, and hiking. Persons interested in further details concerning this proposal should contact the Bureaus district office or the State Office in Salt Lake City. Comments concerning the classification may be sent before January 1, 1971 to the Secretary of the Interior, LLM 320, Washington, D.
