Senate: Debate Opens On Clean Air Auto Industry Lobbies To Weaken Standards WASHINGTON (AP) The Senate is opening debate on legislation that would clean air regulations, following a high-gear automobile industry lobbying campaign aimed at weakening auto exhaust standards. Backers of the bill are fighting efforts to tack the weaker requirements onto the measure. The bill is a major overhaul of the 1970 Clean Air Act and calls for a one-year delay in a scheduled tightening of emission standards. Senate debate begins today. Senators on both sides predicted a major floor battle with the outcome too close to call.

At issue are tough new tailpipe standards scheduled to lake effect with 1978 model cars, to be produced beginning later this year. The claims it cannot meet the standards. Calling for 90 per cent reduction in hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide emissions, the requirements were to have taken effect in 1975, but three one-year delays have been granted. The industry says it already has reduced emissions by about 80 per cent, but achieving an additional few percentage points will be difficult and costly and will impair fuel efficiency. It launched what many veteran members of Congress have called one.of the heaviest lobbying campaigns ever, enlisting auto dealers in nearly every state and congressional district to help press for weaker standards.

The AFL-CIO and Unijed Auto Workers joined the effort, with union officials claiming stiff tailpipe standards could hurt car sales and cause unemployment. The House agreed to the industry-backed amendment, voting 255-139 last month to keep the existing auto emission standards for two more years. They would be followed by laxer standards for carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides than those now scheduled to take effect. The vote was a rejection of a Carter administration-backed proposal for a one-year extension to be followed by tighter controls phased in over five years. The Senate bill, similar to the administration proposal, calls for the same basic one-year delay in the 1978 standards but would impose the tougher standards more quickly, by Sens.

Edmund Muskic, D- Maine, and Robert Stafford, R- the chairman and ranking GOP member of the subcommittee that wrote the bill, urged the Seriate to resist the industry lobbying campaign and "require the unequivocal cleanup of the automobile by li)SO. Sens. Robert Griffin, and Donald Riegle, D-Mich. are sponsoring the industry amendment. Iliegle said the amendment would protect public health while giving consumers "the least cost and greatest energy savings." The Senate bill could add about $330 to the average price of new cars, compared with about $170 for the industry- backed measure, according to congressional testimony.

-ir -ft Suggestions Made To Help Houses Survive Storms LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) With slight modifications in design, homes that would collapse in 80 to 90 mile an hour winds, could withstand tornadoes with wind speeds of up to 200 m.p.h., a University of Kansas professor of aerospace engineering says. Vincent Muirhead, co-author of a book, "Thunderstorms, Tornadoes and Building Damage," says that while most of the material in modern homes would withstand tornado winds, weak joints cause the buildings to collapse. In addition to building homes with stronger joints, Muirhead suggested reducing wind damage by building homes with sloping roofs and surrounding them with trees. He said this would also reduce heating and cooling costs.

He also suggested that mobile homes be placed in a "pit" to decrease buffeting by the wind. Muirhead said he became interested house design while considering wind problems in aircraft landings..
