U.S. economy rebound?
with car sales, defense s
WASHINGTON (AP) — The na
tion’s economy, bolstered by a boom
in car sales and hefty defense spend
ing, grew at a respectable 2.9 per
cent annual rate last summer, sub
stantially better than the dismal
performance during the spring, the
government reported Wednesday.
While the Reagan administration
hailed the increase as proof that the
long-awaited rebound in economic
growth is under way, private econo
mists expressed fears that the
strength could be short-lived.
The Commerce Department re
ported that the gross national prod
uct, after adjusting for inflation, ex
panded from July through
September at a 2.9 percent pace, up
substantially from a barely discern
ible 0.6 percent growth rate turned
in from April through June.
The estimate of third-quarter
GNP growth marked an upward re
vision from an initial report last
month that put growth at a 2.4 per
cent rate.
The faster growth was accompa
nied by higher inflation as the bene
ficial effects of plunging oil prices
wore off. Prices, as measured by a
GNP inflation index, rose at an an
nual rate of 2.4 percent compared
with 1.7 percent in the second quar
ter.
In other economic news Wednes
day, the government reported:
• Construction of new homes and
apartments edged down 0.2 percent
to an annual rate of 1.65 million
units. It was the fifth decline in the
past six months and put the annual
construction rate at its lowest level
since February 1985. The decline
came from weakness in apartT”’
building, and analystssaidthisML
is likely to remain sluggish m]L
of overbuilding and negativenL
of the new tax law.
Corporate profits dimy

• Corporate profits dimbfrlk
zn eni in the third quarteriJP
llion, their strongest gainsfI
4.5 percent rise in the
months of 1985. Industriesen,
profit gains included chemi
food, while petroleum com
and manufacturers of durable,
suffered declining profits.
Commenting on the GNPitH
presidential spokesman IL-.
Speakes said it provided evJL
that the pace of economk cJk.
was quit kening as the couninIff

Group says seafood
not regulated enough
WASHINGTON (AP) — A nutri
tion group, saying the health bene
fits of eating fish are being offset by
the risk of contamination, launched
on Wednesday a quest to set up a
new system of federal inspection for
seafood.
“This is a public health scandal in
the making,” said Ellen Haas, direc
tor of Public Voice for Eood and
Health Policy, a non-profit group.
A study released by the advocacy
group said Americans, attracted to
fish in growing numbers because it is
a healthy source of protein, are at in
creasing risk from bacterial, viral
and toxic contamination because fish
is among the least regulated foods.
“We advise consumers to eat fish
only with caution (and) to avoid raw
fish,” Haas told a news conference.
Spokesmen for the fisheries in
dustry, while saying they also favor a
stepped-up inspection program for
their products, called the Public
Voice warnings overblown.
“Americans eat 350 to 400 million
pounds of seafood a year,” said Roy
Martin, science director for the Na
tional Fisheries Institute. “Where
are the people dropping over? We
don’t have a great big problem. We
do have a perception problem.”
Richard Cutting, the institute’s
lobbyist, said the industry is awaiting
the outcome of a two-year, $350,000
federal effort to design an improved
inspection and sampling program.
He said other nations, notably
Canada, New Zealand, Norway and
Japan, have used improvements in
their inspection systems as a market
ing tool to sell more seafood. More
than 60 percent of seafood con
sumed in the United States is im
ported, he said.
Public Voice, in a 44-page study,
said it is estimated that thousands of
Americans become ill each year
from eating seafood contaminated
with bacteria or viruses.
The report said the federal gov
ernment should assume responsibil
ity for setting uniform national stan
dards for fish and seafood and set
up an inspection program to make
sure those standards are met.

Panel attacks all-terrain vehicles
awai
Sc
beat
field
WASHINGTON (AP) — Restrict
ing use of the all-terrain vehicles by
youngsters, improving rider training
and requiring better suspensions
could help reduce accidents involv
ing the popular motorized tricycles,
Consumer Product Safety Commis
sion officials said Wednesday.
“Driver inexperience is a highly
significant factor,” in the more than
100,000 injuries annually involving
these machines, said Rae Newman of
the commission’s Directorate for Ep
idemiology.
People with less than a month’s
experience riding the off-road vehi
cles have 13 times the risk of an acci
dent than the average rider, New
man said. More than half of all
accidents involve drivers under age
16 — although they constitute less
than one-third of riders, she said.
Roy Deppa, of the agency’s Direc
torate for Engineering Sciences, told
the commission that requiring a full
suspension on all wheels of these ve
hicles would improve driver control.
At a briefing culminating an 18-
month investigation into the hazards
of the vehicles, which have become
both widely popular in recent years,
Newman told the Safety Commis
sion, “Riding an ATV is a very com
plex feat.”
Little known before thesianl

the vehicles are now in use in ®
ica, primarily as recreationalvtsR

Market rebounds after trading scandal
NEW YORK (AP) — There is
growing uneasiness among some
people on Wall Street that the in
sider-trading scandal leaves the
stock market vulnerable to a nasty
spill.
But Wall Street’s best-known
stocks rebounded Wednesday from
the market’s severe decline in the
previous session, and other analysts
commented on the talk of the possi
ble collapse in the market.
“If the end of the world was com
ing, today should have been equally
as bad as yesterday, and certainly it’s
not,” said Ralph Bloch, senior vice
president of the investment firm
Raymond Janies Sc Associates in St.
Petersburg, Fla. “I think the market
is going to shake this off and ignore
it.”
Manuel Johnson, vice chairman of
the Federal Reserve Board, also pre
dicted the scandal would not perma
