Top U.S. general quits in 1972 to work in Korea
Four-star General John H. Michaelis retired in 1972 and took a Seoul job with Han Jin International, raising Pentagon and State Department concerns about influence by the Park Chung Hee regime. The probe examined potential favors, a Koreabased influence-peddling scheme, and ties to low-profile Korean figures. Michaelis defended his judgment, denied wrongdoing, and noted he sought to avoid involvement with the Blue House.

Carter election fogs future of medicine AMA chief says
Philadelphia AMA leader Dr. Richard E. Palmer warned that Jimmy Carter's election clouds the future of American medicine. He said Congress may push national health insurance, with the Kennedy Corman bill favored by labor opposed by the AMA, which advocates optional coverage and a cautious stance. Palmer stressed the risk of inaction leading to sweeping, piecemeal measures.

Coleman to rule air bag mandate for future autos
Secretary of Transportation Coleman will announce whether auto makers must offer passive restraint devices like air bags on new cars. He plans to decide other major issues before January 20, including offshore Gulf port facilities, airline relief for noise rules, and highway routing near Falls Church and Arlington. The air bag decision faces auto makers backing seat belts and insurers backing airbags, with cost and testing concerns cited. Coleman insists on addressing these issues before leaving his post to avoid binding the next administrator.
