WASHINGTON — The Sup
reme Court Tuesday rejected a
California request to bar five
states from refusing its produce
because of the Mediterranean
fruit fly infestation.
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.”

Some in the crowd chanted,
“Stop Reagan,” and Smeal said the

She said:“Yes, our president
has got to hear that this nation

the quest for equality under the

icr °' T About 1,000 women, dressed in
he green and white colors of the
iqual rights movement, gathered
Monday for an ERA rally at the
-incoln Memorial, site of many
last civil rights rallies great and
mall in size.
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.

erupted in loud chants, songs, en

lUBY’S MANAGER $90,000/yr
Seem hard to believe? The average Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. manager did earn
over $90,000 last year. The average training period to become a manager is 6 to
8 years. Managers attain these earnings by collecting a share of the net profits
from their own cafeteria. The average associate manager last year earned
$50,000. This earning level is attainab?e in 3 to 5 years.
To become a manager of one of our cafeterias is a very special business oppor
tunity. You'll be joining an ambitious and progressive company that requires
more of its managers than any food chain in the Sunbelt. Local managers are
decision making businessmen who are responsible for all purchasing, menu
planning, and hiring of personnel. We grant our managers a great deal of
autonomy, and treat them as business partners. Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. is a firm
believer in promoting from within; hence, most Corporate Officers are former unit
managers.
Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. is not restricting interviews to only Business majors; we're
open to ail degrees. We're looking for people who are interested in becoming
dynamic, aggressive, and well paid business people. If that's your goal, then
we're looking for you!
