Legislation To
Tighten Safety
Of Drugs Voted
Washington -IUPII- The Sen
ate Judiciary committee to
day unanimously approved
legislation designed to make
sure that the drugs Americans
buy will be safe and effective.
The 15-member rommitlce,
reconsidering a bill written
hefore baby-deforming thali
domide swept Europp, voted
to give President Kennedy
practically everything he ask
ed In (he way of etlffer drug
legislation, an administration
ide said.
If approved by Congress,
(he committee's bill would
subject drug manufacturers to
the tightest federal regulation
imposed on any industry.
Sen. Eslcs Kefauver (D
Tenn.), whose earlier reform
proposals had been sharply re
vised by the same committee,
called the bill a "very good
measure."
The legislation would apply
both to new drugs and those
already on druggists' shelves.
A drug already on the market
could be withdrawn after a
hearing for a variety of rea
sons, including lack nf sub
stantial evidence that it works
as advertised.
Could Be Suspended
Such drugs aisn could be
suspended immediately if they
were found to pnse an immi
ncnl hazard to

Kennedy, Udall
Laud Leadership
Of Governor
Los Banos, Calif. - WPH -Pageantry
and politics mark
ed the dedication of the San
Luis project and the happiest
man over the outcome was
Gov. Edmund G. Brown.
The 57-year-old Democratic
governor faces what is expect
ed to be a tough fight for
reelection next Nov. fl against
Republican Richard M. Nixon.
At the San Luis ceremony
last Saturday Brown heard
-himself praised by the Presi
dent of the united States for
"d I s tinguished leadership."
And Interior Secretary Stew
art L. Udall said Brown was
"the best water governor of
all our 50 states."
Sources close to the gover
nor said they were highly
pleased by President Kenne
dy's tribute and hoped the
chief executive would return
to California In October to
give Brown another assist.
Crucial Election
Kennedy is known to feel
lhat the Brown - Nixon con
test is the most Important gu
bernatorial election in the
country this fall.
Moreover, the President is
hopeful California, which
gains eight seals in the House
of Representatives as a re
sult of Us population increase
in the last decade, will send
him more Democrats. The
stale's present delegation is
16-14 Democratic.
There were indications that
Kennedy will return to Cali
fornia before Ihe fall election.
UPl White House reporter
Merrlman Smith quoted
"Democratic party officials"
in Los Angeles as saying it is
a "sure bet" the President
will return. .
What gladdened the heart
of Brown and Democrats who
hope to see their man beat
Nixon was this statement
from Kennedy at the dedica
tion: "Many state administra
tions, including some of Ihe
most distinguished, wrestled
wilh the problem of water
It said I development. But I believe
lhat all Californians will re
member the leadership which
your disingulshed governor
has given In this great cause
of making waler available to
Ihe people of the stale and f
salute him for it.
Udall was even more ful
some In his praise.
"This great cooperative wa
ler effort puts California in
a class by itself in all of the
50 states and puts Pat Brown
in a class by himself as the
best waler governor of all
our 50 stales." lie said.
Although Kennedy's lour
of three reclamation projects
in South Dakota, Colorado and
California was billed as "non
political." there was a clear
cut majority of Democrats on
the "distinguished visitors"
stand at Ihe San Luis dam
sile. II miles west of here.
While 13 Democratic slale
office - holders were on I lie
sland. there were only two Re
publicans there - U.S. Sen.

ot the San Luis legislation in

Radiation
Extended
Belt Temporarily
by Pacific Tests
Washington -IUPIJ- The gov
ernmen tsaid today a high al
titude U.S. nuclear test in the
Pacific la.t month had caus
ed "an artificial temporary
extension" of the Van Allen
radiation belt. Its effect on fu
ture U.S. manned space
flights has not been deter
mined. A joint statement by the
Atomic Energy commission
and the Defense department
said this was not an unex
pected development fro. i the
July 9 blast. Officials said it
was about as expected.
The statement said the new
radiation area lies primarily
above the path of current
manned space flights, lt add
ed: "Though the (radiation)
measurements indicate that
the residual electrons will
not constitute a hazard to
manned satellite launchings
which are planned for the
near future, the Department
of Defense, the National Aer
onautics and Space adminis
tration and the Atomic Ener
gy commission are making a
detailed study to determine
possible effects."
The statement said the in
formation was being "circu
lated to governments con
ducting or contemplating sat
ellite programs and other ex
periments in space." Asked if
this included Russia a govern
ment spokesman said he pre
sumed the Soviet Union was
among thoee notified.
Earlier, a scientist at' Boul
der, Colo., had said the July
9 test may have produced an
other radiation belt similar
to the Van Allen belt.
Dr. James Warwi of the
high altitude observatory of
the National Center for At
mospheric research here said
the belt was positioned in
space where it passed close to
the Johnston Island site of
the July explosion. He said
it contained the same kind of
"high energy eleetrons" of
the Van Allen belt.
Warwick said he could not
give an opinion on whether
the new belt would be a haz
ard to manned space explora
tion or would slow up the
U.S. Mercury program. But
he said he thought there were
plenty of scientists qualified
to do so.
"The data indicates that
the belt appeared immediate
ly following the July 9 ex
plosion over Johnston Is
land," Warwick sr'd. "Our
data comes from two Pacific
stations on a month' basis.
I saw them for the first time
last week.
"However, observations of
effects similar to what we
saw came from the National
Bureau of Standards station
in Peru and it's my under
standing they saw earlier in
July what we did."
Warwick said the new ra
diation belt is just at the low
er edge of the inner Van Al
len belt nnd could las' for
months or possibly as long
as five years.
