Government figures show lower farm prices for major commodities in 1976 contributing to slower growth in retail food costs. USDA data on a 65 item market basket indicates middlemen still dominate prices while farmers receive about 13.7 percent of September 1975 levels. Beef prices fell despite farm value drops, illustrating the widening gap between consumer costs and farm receipts.

EPA biologist asserts no safe PCB level for freshwater fish
Bloomington Ind. AP says Ryan V Nebeker aquatic biologist for the U S Environmental Protection Agency testified at a state Environmental Management Board hearing that no level of polychlorinated biphenyls is safe in freshwater fish. He noted PCBs accumulate in fish over time and can reach toxic levels as hearings seek pollution sources and extent. Fishing bans exist in Clear and Salt creeks and the east fork of White River south of Bloomington due to PCB buildup.
