The bill would implement the 1977 treaty to transfer canal control to Panama by 2000, with costs estimated at 4.5 billion over 20 years and tolls offsetting about 2.2 billion. A Panama Canal Commission would manage operations until transfer.

New Blood Test Aims For Early Cancer Detection
Boston researchers report a cytofluorometer test that detects malignant lymphoma cells in blood earlier than current methods. It uses laser light and fluorescent antibodies to identify abnormal cells by surface markers, requiring only 200,000 lymphocytes and processing 5,000 cells per second. The approach could flag cancers with single abnormal cells in 100.
