Child restraint law worth the fight
Sue Major Holmes reports that New Mexico fights a rising child death toll from traffic crashes as a new restraint law takes effect.

Fear of human plague no longer warranted
State health officials say fear of the human plague has eased due to education and early treatment, with six New Mexicans contracting the disease this year and all surviving. The pneumonic form remains a danger, but person to person spread has not occurred in New Mexico since 1924. The Bayard case prompted renewed emphasis on prevention and timely medical care.
