The FDA orders salt makers to label iodide content on all table salts within 18 months. Noniodized salt must carry a notice that it does not supply iodide, a nutrient, while large restaurant and home canning packages face tailored rules. The Salt Institute urged consumer testing but FDA rejected it and kept exceptions for very small or very large packages.

Pentagon Allows West Coast Ports to Handle Military Cargo
The Pacific Maritime Association reverses its ban on handling military cargo at West Coast ports during a 13,000 longshoremen strike.
