California voters reject Prop 9 anti pollution measure
Editorial notes that California voters defeated Proposition 9 by two to one. The failed measure would ban DDT and other long lasting pesticides, remove lead from gasoline by 1976, outlaw offshore drilling, and make new nuclear power plants illegal. The People’s Lobby gathered about a half a million signatures to place the issue on the ballot. Opposition came from government, business and unions.
