Consumer 'heroes' and 'zeroes1 rated ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT AND CHRONICLE Sunday. March 5, 1978 WASHINGTON (UPI) More members claimed to be pro-consumer and the president vowed to be a better advocate than Ralph Nader but the 1977 session in Congress was ineffective on consumer issues, the Consumer Federation of America said yesterday. The nation's largest organized consumer group said its analysis of votes in the first session of the 95th Congress produced fewer "heroes" senators and representatives who gave them 100 percent support than at any time in the past three years. There were no 100 percent scores in the Senate and only four in the House Reps. Robert Drinan, Elizabeth Holtz-man, Andrew Maguire, and Richard Ottinger, The analysis "makes it painfully clear that to date the 95th Congress has been decidedly weak and ineffective on consumer issues," said federation executive director Kathleen O'Reilly.

"This is particularly disappointing because by most standards the 95th Congress should be decidedly pro-consumer. "So many elements had pointed in that direction," she said. "More congressional candidates than ever had run on a consumer platform; the successful presidential candidate (who had promised to be a 'better consumer advocate than Ralph Nader') had a congressional majority of his own party; and several proceedural reforms within the congressional system had been recently effected." The ratings were based on votes for or against several pieces of legislation the federation backed. Among these were creation of an Office of Consumer Representation, which died last month; reimburse ment for public participation in government hearings; no-fault automobile insurance and legislation involving class action rights. Although there were no "heroes" in the Senate, compared to seven in 1975 and one in 1976, the CFA singled out 11 members who had "impressively high scores." They were Sens.

James Abourezk, Birch Bayh, Dick Clark, D-Iowa; John Culver, D-Iowa; William Hathaway, D-Maine; Edward Kennedy, Howard Metzenbaum, D-Ohio; Gaylord Nelson, Claiborne Pell, DR. William Proxmire, and Paul Sarbanes, D-Md The number of "zeroes" members with ratings of 0 percent declined somewhat. There were only two in the Senate S.I.
