The justices dismissed argu ments supported by the federal government, of California offi cials, who charged efforts by Texas, Florida, Alabama, South Carolina and Georgia to quaran tine fruits and vegetables from California were improper restric tions on interstate commerce. Attorneys for the five states, however, told the justices the quarantine is necessary to protect public health and local agricul ture. California argued that since the infestation is under control, the restrictions are unnecessary, and the action is unneeded because most produce shipped out of Cali fornia is grown in parts of the state not affected by the Medfly. Federal officials urged the high court to grant California’s request, arguing, “Damage to California’s economy and the ensuing disrup tion of the national fruit and veget able market represents an irrepar able injury that far outweighs the defendant states’ speculative con cerns.” Florida told the court it feared a major Medfly infestation could re sult in “loss of a substantial portion of Florida’s citrus and other crops,” costing more than $50 mil lion and threatening the state’s foreign markets. Although Alabama said its con sumers would be hurt by the quarantine because of higher prices for scarcer produce, it said introduction of the Medfly could cause “hundreds of thousands of small Alabama truck farmers to go v, out of business.” GENERAL STUDIES STUDENTS Enhance your concentration Dr. Nick Dobrovolsky will teach you how: Tues., Oct. 20th at 7 p.m. in Room 200 Harrington Annex la iRA approval needed, ay former first ladies emnien!

It was the culmination of a hree-day National Organization for Women convention that dedi- r cated all its effort in the next nine months to winning ratification of the amendment in three more states by the June 30, 1982 dead line. The ERA, passed by Congress in 1972, stalled with ratification by Indiana, the 35th of the 38 states needed, in 1977. A survey of political leaders in the remaining 15 states showed tie or no hope for passage. Crowd participants frequently erupted in loud chants, songs, en thusiastically waved banners and plastic green and white “ERA Yes” pennants.
