Lifestyles worth nuclear risk?
By CARL T. ROWAN April 4, 1979
WASHINGTON -- We Americans face an agonizing question: Will we reduce our standard of living sharply to avoid imperiling our own lives, and those of our children, born and yet unborn?
That dilemma is made appallingly real by the accident at the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant near Harrisburg, Pa., which released radiation at least 20 miles away from the plant.
This mishap, the worst in the nation's history, comes at a time when the United States is considering a vast increase in nuclear energy as part of an almost desperate program to ease dependency on increasingly costly foreign petroleum.
Now millions of Americans, perhaps including President Carter, will take seriously the following warning by Dr. Herbert Abrams, professor and chairman of radiology at Harvard Medical School: "The risk of nuclear power is not worth the economic benefits."
Abrams is just one of hundreds of distinguished physicians and scientists who cite nuclear power plants as an "unprecedented threat to public health."
The Three Mile Island accident gives powerful credence to this warning, and it renders unacceptable the assurances given by the atomic power industry that serious accidents cannot happen.
The public now is going to believe a current warning by 300 physicians in the New England Journal of Medicine that an even more serious accident could occur, causing 3,300 deaths, 45,000 injuries, 45,000 cancers over a period of years and so contaminate an area the size of Pennsylvania that it would become uninhabitable.
Some will say that these physicians are being alarmist; yet, people who live in the area of the Three Mile Island plant cannot take much comfort from the various statements about the impact on humans of the radioactive gases that escaped.
Joseph M. Hendrie, chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, tells members of a House subcommittee that the radiation outside the Pennsylvania plant was of such a low level that a person would have to be exposed to it for 34 years for it to cause cancer. But at another time Hendrie says: "The radiation we see is not at a level that I would take casually, however. We regulate on the basis that any exposure is to be avoided."
To be sure, many pregnant women in the Three Mile Island area were not taking the situation casually. Especially after Hendrie later admitted that his answers were "speculated." Concern turned to deep fear after an emergency was declared in the area with many pregnant women and children then evacuated.
But the hard question remains: Is the risk of nuclear power greater than the benefit?
Nuclear plants provided some 13 percent of the nation's electrical needs last year. If we close down all nuclear plants, where do we get the millions of barrels of oil needed to replace nuclear fuels?
Are Americans ready to say that to avoid the risks of nuclear plant accidents they will go back to being one-car families, give up their pleasure boats, reduce drastically the fuel used for air conditioning and home-heating? We cannot have it both ways -- a lifestyle based on the gluttonous usage of energy along with an energy-production environment that is free of nuclear contamination -- and even smoke from coal.
Let us see what President Carter suggests as a solution to our energy crisis that does not expose us to peril, or what to some will seem like poverty.

# Radiation level feared too hot to try cleanup
By THOMAS O'TOOLE,
LA Times-Washington Post Service
WASHINGTON -- Federal officials raised the possibility Monday that the shutdown Three Mile Island nuclear plant in Pennsylvania is so badly contaminated with radioactivity that it may never reopen to generate electricity.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has raised this question in background briefings it has given senators and representatives from Pennsylvania. The NRC also has raised the question with members of Congress with oversight roles in nuclear energy generation.
"It might be a $1 billion mausoleum," said Sen. Gary Hart, D-Colo., chairman of the Senate public works subcommittee on nuclear regulation. "It might be more expensive to clean up the history of nuclear power," Rep. Morris K. Udall, D-Ariz., chairman of the House subcommittee on energy and the environment, said. "It's so bad it will be months before any possible cleanup can begin, if indeed a cleanup is possible."
There are conflicting reports on how much of Three Mile Island's nuclear fuel has been damaged, how badly it's been damaged and how much radioactivity the damage has released from the reactor into the containment and into the waste water used to cool it.
One report had it that up to 50 percent of the 36,000 fuel rods had been damaged. Another report said only 30 percent were damaged. A third report said 10 percent of the rods were dam-
