One Million Face X Ray Cancer Thyroid Risk
The National Cancer Institute warns that at least one million Americans treated with X rays in infancy or childhood for conditions such as tonsillitis whooping cough and acne may have an increased risk of thyroid tumors. Most tumors are benign but some are malignant and early detection by regular medical exams is advised. The risk persists for decades and is higher for X rays to the head neck or upper chest though diagnostic X rays involve far lower doses.

Senate backs neutron bomb decision amid funding fight
The Senate approved giving President Carter authority to pursue neutron warhead development while preserving a veto on production. After hours of debate, the chamber rejected a bid led by Sen Mark Hatfield to strip funds from a Public Works Appropriations Bill, sending the measure to a House Senate conference to decide on keeping a reversal option for NATO related weapons. Carter planned a production decision next month, highlighting the bomb’s radiation focus over blast yield.

Arrogance of power fuels GOP attack on Dems in Ohio
In Columbus Republicans decry Democratic veto-proof action as partisan as House Democrats pass a bill to make Auditor Ferguson staff nonclassified. Rep. Oxley blasts the move while Dems cite GOP politics. The measure, advancing after partyline votes, would allow Ferguson to hire as needed, affecting about 150 examiners. In Memphis, Nancy Huff sells state university and city seals as a small firm handles production.
