Soviet grain and oil pact eyed to lift U S prices
The agreement would let the Soviet Union buy 6 to 8 million metric tons of corn and wheat annually, starting next year, worth about $1 billion yearly to the U S trade balance. Soybeans and rice excluded. An oil deal contemplates 200,000 barrels daily for five years, with no price set yet. Analysts foresee a modest U S price rise, about 1.5 percent, while the impact on reserves is limited.

Doctors Exempted Under Malpractice Concept
Iowa lawyer William Ball told a legislative study committee that medical malpractice insurance for doctors would grant them negligence exemptions. Ball, head of the Iowa Trial Lawyers Assn medical malpractice committee, said patients face high out of pocket costs and many cases rejected due to insurance limits. He cited a Mason City case and noted the public struggles to fund pretrial costs. An unrelated Trafalgar reference marks 1805.
