Motion filed to lift EPA sanctions
Ranchers seek to poison predators
United Press International
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Forces
seeking to overturn a 1972
Environmental Protection Agency
ban on predator poison 1080 Wed
nesday have legally countered a new
federal attempt to preserve the pro
hibition.
In motions filed Wednesday in
U.S. District Court, attorneys rep
resenting several western states and
wool and sheep interests said the
federal government’s attempt to
prevent a trial on the 1972 ban was
untimely and would deny a hearing
on the evidence.
Federal attorneys filed motions
Tuesday which aim to prevent a
trial, now scheduled for Nov. 20,
and thereby preserving the ban.

scheduled to hear the motions this
week in his Cheyenne courtroom.
The maneuvers represent the latest
in a six-year-old attempt to have the
ban on 1080 lifted.
Western ranchers and sheepmen
say 1080, a poison more powerful
than others available, is needed to
kill coyotes and other predators.
The EPA, however, says 1080 has
had also caused the death of dogs,
foxes and birds.
During the hearing, Kerr also is
scheduled to hear a motion filed
Wednesday by the state of Wyom
ing, requesting a ruling on whether
it should be included in the ban.

Psychologist attacks
Louisiana abortion lav
United Press International
NEW ORLEANS — Louisiana’s
new abortion law, the most restric
tive in the nation, is so one-sided
that it should be considered uncon
stitutional, a psychologist testified
this week.
Testimony began Wednesday in
the federal court trial of a suit filed
to block enforcement of the law.
U.S. District Judge Robert Collins
has issued a temporary restraining
order blocking the law from taking
effect until he rules on its legality.
The trial was expected to last
through next week, with the plain
tiffs calling 15 witnesses and the
state calling 11.
The attorneys also contended that
the government was making the re
quests with the express purpose of
delaying a trial and “denying the
plaintiffs the opportunity for a full
hearing on the merits of their causes
of action.”
Dr. Henry P. David, a psycholo
gist and director of the Family Life
Institute in Washington, was the
first witness. He testified the law is
unconstitutional and eventually
might lead women to return to il
legal and unsafe abortions.
The American Civil Liberties
Union has joined several abortion
clinics, doctors and an unidentified
pregnant woman in the challenge.
The law requires physicians to in
form women that a fetus is a human
life from the moment of conception.
It requires them to describe in de
tail the stage of development of the
fetus and postpone any abortions
requested for 24 hours, as well as
notify the parents of young women
who request abortions.
It imposes stringent licensing re
quirements on abortion clinics —
requirements so strict that clinic di
rectors have said many hospitals in
the state could not meet them.
David testified the law is one-
B-
iine peczz
to get
sided because it forces a dod
inform a woman a fetus is
life from the moment of cc_
and does not require discussiu J
