WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi
dent Reagan faces a major spending
defeat this week if Congress, as ex
pected, overrides his second veto in
three months of popular $20 billion
clean-water legislation.
“I know this veto is going to be
overridden,” Reagan said Friday at a
ceremony that contrasted markedly
with the quiet pocket veto he used
last Nov. 6 to scuttle an identical bill
after Congress had left town and was
unable to take override votes.
The First clean-water override
vote is set for Tuesday in the House,
which got the 1987 session off to a
quick start Jan. 8 by approving the
legislation 406-6. a margin far be
yond the two-thirds needed to over
ride the veto.
There is one element of suspense
this week on Capitol Hill: Will the
House follow the lead of the Senate
Ag W
and reject a proposal to add $ljj|
to the annual $77,400 congress:
salary?
Unless the I Imise rejects the:pVV V.
midnight Tuesday, the raises,i
ommended by Reagan, are u
math tor lawmakers, federaljuc:!
the Cabinet and top-level il
ream rats. The House won't i
hearings on the issue until Mott
and the question isn’t yet on thelj
debate agenda.

says you have to base your decisions
on quality of life. We don’t know
what the quality of life is going to be
for a premature 1,000-gram infant.”
Dobin said pregnancies can be ter
minated for genetic reasons at 20 to
22 weeks, and at this age the fetus is
usually between 500 and 700 grams.
Besides government interference.
Financial struggles, insurance battles
and moral questions over these is
sues, she said, most people don’t
count on another serious problem.
“We have family problems be
cause of the financial problems,” she
said. “What happens to the parents
who can’t get into the medical system
because they don’t have insurance or
the insurance has been stripped
from them?
“You’ve got a child that can’t have
a genetic follow-up because it s a spe
cialty and insurance won’t pa\ for it.
You’ve got divorce because of the Fi
nancial strain of both the baby and
the baby’s medical problems. This
makes for the breakup of families
and it makes for neglect of the othet
children in the family who are
healthy, because all die efforts of the
family have to he lot the child with
the birth defect.”

year since 1960 developing the arti
ficial heart.
“There has been a big push to de
velop a totally independent heart
system,” he said. “But even after 30
years of research, we still haven’t
solved some very elemental prob
lems.”
Cross cited blood clotting as a ma
jor problem wdth the artificial heart.
“We need to develop a material
that the blood does not recognize as
Foreign to be able to prevent the clot
ting," he said.
He said the cost of an artificial
heart is another problem. Artificial
hearts such as the Jarvik-7 required
four valves at a price between S1,500
and $2,500 each, while the drive unit
and the control unit for the heart
were between $2,000 and $5,000
apiece.
“Each heart costs between
$12,000 and $23,000, without sur
geon fees, aftercare, or hospitaliza
tion costs,” Cross said. “If you figure
that out, it means that every time
your heart beats it represents $ 100.

Gross also said research had still
not produced a material for artificial
hearts that was durable enough.
“The heart heats an average of
31.5 million times a year,” he said.
“If you start to think about that from
the standpoint of building a machine
to resist that kind of stress, you begin
to see what kind of problem you are
up against.”
“My question is, who pays for this?
Should it be the patient or society?
What about the patient who can’t af
ford it? And if we use public funds
for the development of a totally arti
ficial heart, who is to determine who
should receive the heart?”
Half of the more than 500,000
people who die of heart failure each
year could benefit from an artific ial
heart, he said.

he said.
The individual is left with the
right to make wrong or-unethical de
cisions, and the problem is that it’s
not the individual who is going to
provide that confident and reliable
knowledge, he said.
Government bureaucrats, oppos
ing the fickle whims of the Legis
lature, are interfering with the proc
ess of deciding what is correct,
Hyman said.
Religious authorities also have dif
ferent definitions of what is right or
wrong, and all these qualified inter
preters often disagree among them
selves.
Different actions are taken in situ
ations concerning children and in
competent patients, however.
Minors need parental consent for
medical procedures, and if the par
ents deny consent, the courts may in
tervene, he said. As for incompetent
patients, the next of kin has the right
to give consent.
