Palm oil boom eyed as threat to soybean growers
Washington sources say Agriculture Department officials may seek actions to shield American soybean growers from rising palm oil competition. Bell notes possible proposals after studies show palm oil expansion backed by World Bank and aid programs. Memorandum cites financing as fueling exports and argues against disrupting U S fats and oils markets. Malaysia leads exports with 2.4 million tons expected by 1990, with expansion in Indonesia Ivory Coast and others.

Bunker Hill Plans Appeal Over EPA Sulfur Emission Rule
Bunker Hill Mining Co says it will appeal a federal sulfur oxide emission regulation tied to its lead zinc smelter. The rule requires 82 percent control, higher than the current 72 percent rate, and the company plans appeals through the 9th Circuit and possibly the Supreme Court. The EPA seeks 96 percent control by mid 1977, with supplemental measures like shutdowns in bad wind conditions.
