Auto Makers Pressure for Federal Vehicle Safety Standards
Washington AP reports Ford Vice President John S. Bugas urged Congress to grant the federal government authority to set legally binding vehicle safety standards while preserving state roles in enforcement. The auto industry backs a strong federal role but seeks uniform national standards and a phased federal mandate, with hearings planned to reconcile competing views and move toward comprehensive auto safety legislation.

Taxes Rise On Paychecks As New Withholding Starts

Beginning May 1, withholding ranges from 14 to 30 percent, factoring standard deduction and marital status to align withheld taxes with actual liability.

DeRudder Dies After Artificial Heart Implanted
Houston AP report details the death of Marcel DeRudder a 61 year old coal miner from Westville after six days with a partial artificial heart device in his chest. Doctors cited a probable rupture of the bronchia or trachea as the cause though a post mortem was pending. The operation led by Dr. Michael E DeBakey aimed to rest the left ventricle while healing. DeBakey said the pump was working and essential biology could have killed him without it. DeRudder had shown slight kidney improvement but developed lung congestion and died at Methodist Hospital.
