Air Bags To Become Required In New Cars
Washington AP reports Congress is set to approve a three year phased plan mandating air bags or automatic seat belts in new cars starting with 1962 models and full compliance by 1984. Secretary Brock Adams says the plan could save about 9000 lives yearly and costs are estimated at 100 to 300 dollars per car. Opponents criticize costs and privacy, while supporters say it gives automakers time to adapt.

Bill Would Kill Fuel Pass On
Harrisburg Senator Quentin R Orlando sponsors legislation to end automatic fuel adjustment charges for utility customers. The bill, drafted with Senator Franklin L. Kury, would require fuel costs to become part of the utility rate base and be reviewed by the Public Utility Commission during rate filings. Orlando argues pass-on provisions worked during volatile fuel markets but now hamper economy and require utilities to justify rates to keep prices low.
