Debate on therapeutic equivalence of generic drugs continues
In a Senate speech in March Nelson discusses the monopoly sub committee hearings on therapeutic equivalency. Experts acknowledge most drugs meeting USP NF standards are therapeutically equivalent though rare exceptions exist. The federal task force on prescription drugs notes that chemical non equivalence is not a major public health hazard, urges high priority clinical tests by FDA to determine biological equivalence, and cites fewer than two dozen known nonconforming generic cases among about 10 000 drug products. Dr Herbert L Ley Jr FDA commissioner notes that most generics meet standards and pledges transparency if proven otherwise.

Routine Traffic Control Methods Named In Crash
The National Transportation Safety Board blamed routine traffic control procedures in a collision over North Carolina that killed 82 people as a private Cessna veered into a Piedmont Airlines Boeing 727. The Cessna piloted by John D. Addison, 40, of Lebanon, Missouri, deviated from its path near Hendersonville on July 19, 1967, during approach to Asheville Municipal Airport while the jet had just taken off. The board urged towers to double check clearances with private pilots, monitor aircraft by radar, and require annual pilot instrument rating tests. One airliner passenger was Navy Secretary John T. McNaughton.
