Nixon Veto Seen for Senate Safety Bill in House Debate
House Republicans say President Nixon would veto a Senate version of a household product safety bill if it resembles the Senate plan. The House bill would create an independent federal commission to set safety standards for items from washing machines to football helmets, while excluding food drugs cosmetics motor vehicles tobacco pesticides weapons and ammo. The measure passed the House 318 to 50 and allows citizen suits only if damages exceed $10 000.
