Northern Natural giving refunds
OMAHA, Neb.-Northern Natural Gas Co. will refund
$11. 4 million to customers la seven states for natural gas
overcharges between 1972 and 1977.
Nebraska, with 13 percent of Northern's sales, will
receive about $ 1 .4 million.
The overcharges occurred, said a Northern spokesman,
because of differences between the estimated and actual
costs permitted in federal tariffs.
The overcharges were contained in the annual purchas
ed gas adjustment which Northern passes along to customers.

Officials announced the action Wednesday, Just as this
fall's harvest of new grain is getting underway in the major
Corn Belt areas.
The 1979 com crop is estimated at a record of 7.27
billion bushels, but demand for the grain In the coming
year is expected to be even larger than the huge crop.
Release of the stored grain theoretically adds to the
available supply and could dampen market prices from
their relatively high levels at the present time.

WASHINGTON-The Agriculture Department has
released more than half a billion bushels of old-crop corn
that farmers have stored under the government's grain
SAN JOSE, Calif .-Health officials, warned by a bizarre
anonymous letter, said Wednesday that hundreds of peo
ple may have been exposed to a suspected cancer-causing
chemical deliberately dumped in three swimming pools.
Traces of Silvex, a powerful herbicide, and the chemi
cal 2,4D, which contains the suspected carcinogen dioxin,
were discovered last week in a pool at Oakwood Gardens
North, a 1,000-unit complex in west San Jose. Tuesday,
similar traces were found in two pools at Oakwood Gar
dens South, a 780-unit complex about a mile away.
So far nobody has reported ill effects from swimming
in the contaminated water.
