A House energy subcommittee opened its Three Mile Island investigation with a plant tour and cautioned that economics and safety must be reviewed as the future role of nuclear power is examined.

Commerce chief: Trade pact with China won’t be quick
Commerce Secretary Juanita Kreps said trade talks with China will move slowly as Chinese rules under the 1974 U S trade act complicate signing a pact. She described the session with Li Qiang as fruitful and exploratory, noting no urgency but willingness to proceed. Trade last year between the two nations was 1.1 billion dollars and is expected to rise to 1.6 billion in 1979, with a potential 4 to 5 billion by 1985.
