Actually, the concrete evidence of the cancer threat in cyclamates came out of a private study commissioned by Abbott Laboratories, the major manufacturer. To its credit, the company immediately brought the results to the Food and Drug Administration. The Delaney Amendment, signed in 1958, requires the FDA to brand as unsafe any additive that has been shown to induce cancer in humans or animals. Last week New York Congressman James J. Delaney, the bill's sponsor, warmly recalled the support he had received from Actress Gloria Swanson, now 70, who roused interest in the bill in a 1952 speech...
Shortages and soaring prices are the outcome of many forces, but the problem right now is that, as Secretary Romney notes, "housing is the first casualty of the anti-inflationary fight."
