When Agriculture Secretary Bob

the administration had decided
against a feed grains paid diversion,
legislators promised quick action on
further legislation to offset the im
pact of the grain embargo.
Reacting to the administration's
announcement, Sen. Herman Tal-
madge, D-Ga., said he was “deeply
disappointed that the Carter admi
nistration has declined to establish a
paid diversion program for 1980 feed
grains.
“It now becomes more important
than ever that Congress promptly
consider all legislative options to
help President Carter keep his
pledge to minimize the impact of the
Russian grain embargo on the na
tion’s farmers,” he said.
A member of the House Agricul
ture Committee, Rep. Berkley Be
dell, D-Iowa, said his constituents
were “almost unanimous in their
feeling that we urgently need a paid
diversion program.”
Marvin Meek, national chairman
of the American Agriculture Move

ATLANTA — Federal health offi
cials say that though there’s no
proven connection between mumps
and diabetes, “limited experimen
tal” research shows mumps infection
may result in damage to the pan
creas.
The Center for Disease Control
said Sunday further research is
needed to determine whether
mumps, which causes painful swell
ing of the pancreas and other glands,
contributes to the development of
diabetes.
Diabetes occurs when the pan
creas fails to produce enough insulin
to prevent an oversupply of sugar in
the blood.
“There are limited experimental,
clinical and epidemiologic data that
pancreatic damage may result from
injury caused by direct viral
(mumps) invasion,” the center said
in its latest Morbidity and Mortality
Weekly report.
Researchers are wondering if the
damage mumps might cause to the
pancreas could promote diabetes,
but the center sats evidence from the
tests do not yet draw a direct link.
“It’s not been determined
whether there is a cause-and-effect
relationship,’’ said Dr. John
Kobayashi of the CDC’s immuniza
tion division.
However, Kobayishi said even

Earthquake
in California
United Press International
EUREKA, Calif. — An earth
quake at 6:15 a.m. Monday shook the
floor of the Pacific Ocean off North
ern California and was felt at some
points along the coast.
The University of California seis-
mographic station at Berkeley re
ported the quake was centered 60
miles southwest of Eureka.
It had a Richter magnitude of 5.2.
abetes, “there are other reasons for
immunizing children against
mumps.”
He cited what he termed “a very
safe vaccine against mumps” which
has been widely used since 1967 and,
he said, gives long-lasting protection
against mumps.
The GDC has reported a con
tinued decline in mumps cases since
the vaccine was introduced. Last
year about 14,000 cases were re
ported. There were 16,681 in 1978
and 21,436in 1977, the center said,
as opposed to 128,295 cases in 1966
— the year before the vaccine was
available.
