AEC bids first implant for nuclear powered heart pacemaker
The Atomic Energy Commission announced its first license application to implant nuclear powered heart pacemakers in humans, filed by the Veterans Administration hospital in Buffalo New York on an investigational basis. The project would mark the first human use in the United States if authorized, replacing traditional battery powered units that require periodic surgery. The proposal uses plutonium 238 to power a pacemaker and signals broader AEC plans for energy driven medical devices and space mission waste incineration and water recovery systems.

Boggs calls wage controls unrealistic without enforcement
House Democratic Leader Hale Boggs said President Nixon's wage price controls rely on a strong enforcement bureaucracy. He criticized IRS as ill suited for enforcement and warned that lax compliance harms honest workers while rewarding noncompliance. The Cost of Living Council exempted those earning under 1.90 dollars hourly from controls, expanding raises for about 12 million workers if granted by employers. The Pay Board had opposed the 1.90 figure but left the federal minimum at 1.60.
