WASHINGTON — The safe
management of radioactive wastes
given off in increased nuclear energy
production is feasible, according to a
federal government report issued
Monday.
The report, which was prepared
by the Energy Resources Council,
also states that radioactive waste
volume is small when compared with
other waste products, and that even
extra disposed costs would not have
much affect on the cost of electricity.
Commerce Secretary Elliot L.
Richardson, the council’s chairman.
ing of radioactive wastes is lower
than in other areas of energy produc
tion.
Richardson, testifying before the
Joint Atomic Energy subcommittee
on environment and safety, said that
mistakes in dealing with nuclear
waste over the past 30 years have not
produced health or safety problems.
His optimistic outlook was coun
tered by that of Tom Cochran of the
Natural Resources Defense Council,
who said no advancements have
since the Pugwash conference, a
meeting of a group of international
scientists who reported in 1973 that
the disposal problem of radioactive
wastes remained unsolved.
The Federal Energy Administra
tion, in its 1976 National Energy
Outlook report, said that by 1985
nuclear power must expand from its
current 9 per cent of electric genera
tion to 25 per cent to meet energy
demands.

More wealthy Americans
may pay extra taxes next year
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Senate
Finance Committee is considering a
measure which could force nearly
100,000 more well-to-do Americans
to pay a minimum federal tax.
The minimum tax, enacted in
1969, is currently paid by about
55,000 of the nation’s wealthiest per
sons. It imposes a 10 per cent levy,
on top of regular income taxes, on
certain large deductions known as
preferences. But the first $30,000 of
preferences are exempt.
Finance Committee Chairman
Russell B. Long, D-La., said that by
eliminating the $30,000 exemption
and raising the minimum tax rate to
14 per cent, 154,000 persons would
be forced to pay the tax.
Long’s plan would bring an esti
mated extra $700 million to $800 mil
lion into the Treasury each year.
Long’s committee is expected to
vote on his proposal Tuesday. Dur
ing a committee meeting Friday, it
appeared the bill had the votes to
pass.

WASHINGTON — Army meat
inspectors learned to steal, took
bribes and were furnished with the
services of prostitutes to assure that
they would not “hassle” packers who
were selling the Pentagon inferior
meat at sirloin prices, according to
testimony before a Senate panel.
Sen. Lawton Chiles, D-Fla.,
chairman of the Senate Government
Operations subcommittee on federal
spending practices, said at Monday’s
hearing that lack of discipline,
fraternization between officers and
enlisted personnel and lack of train
ing for military inspectors resulted in
a “rotten” military meat procure
ment system.
Edward Kehl, former supervisor
for the now-defunct G&G Packing
Co. of Boston, testified Monday that
the firm regularly filled Army orders
for choice beef with lower priced up
graded meat and substituted tough
cuts for tender.
Kehl agreed with a calculation by
Chiles that the substitution of
knuckle for sirloin tip butts by G&G
could have resulted in illegal profits
of up to $192,000 a day.
He said young, inexperienced
Army meat inspectors never de
tected the substitution because of
the way the meat was cut.
Kehl said knuckle was substituted
for sirloin, worth $2.40 a pound
more, in 50 per cent of the Army
steak orders from G&G. He said the
firm also sent knuckle to Blue Rib
bon Frozen Foods of Hamden,
Conn., to fill that firm’s Army con
tracts.
Both New England meat process
ing firms, now closed, were owned
by Harry and Frank Goldberg.
Charles Reidinger, former Army
supervising inspector in the Boston
area, testified that Harry Goldberg
started paying him $200 a month in
the fall of 1974 and later raised it to
$400. He said he was told the com
pany “just wanted no major hasi
no nit-picking.”
And Reidinger said h (
Goldberg furnished him with pm
tutes about 10 times over a 10-nv.
period.
Spec. 4 Nadja Hoyer-Boott ^
pearing in Army uniform, testci
that she was assigned to beefii
tion at C&G in the summero
at age 18 after only a day or tw,
schooling in beef inspection.
She said she was taught tori
meat by a fellow inspector and)
she received such things as foot
and airplane tickets, weekend^
clothing and perfume fromtheQi
manager and his assistant.
Manuel Pacheco, former mi
supervisor in the Army’s Bostoi
spection office, said Harry Gold,
gave him $100 a week at
later $200 a week “just for not In
