Schlesinger apparently has some reservations about the new U.S. agreement to help Egypt build nuclear power plants. Asked at a Monday news conference whether he would have recommended such aid to Egypt. Schlesinger said.

"I think he would have put the cons before the pros." one official said. Critics in Congress questioned whether President Nixon's promise to supply nuclear materials and advice to Egypt for peaceful purposes might open the way to Egypt's developing nuclear weapons. No such criticism has been voiced against the similar U.S. commitment to Israel.

which already has two nuclear reactors. Some experts believe the Israelis could build atomic weapons now. if they wished. Schlesinger, a former chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission. told newsmen the U.S.

aid in developing peaceful nuclear power plants is not wholly without risk" enhancing the potential for atomic weapons. However. Schelsinger said.

Y. 13903 Auctions 12 Firecracker Ban Delayed For 30 Days WASHINGTON (AP) Americans can enjoy the boom of firecrackers this Fourth of July after all. The government just asks that you be careful. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission voted 5 to 0 Monday.

just six hours before its midnight firecracker ban was to have taken effect. to grant Chinese and U.S. fireworks firms a public hearing on their objections. That stays the ban. new safety standards and labeling for other types of fireworks at least days.

'The commission has not made any determination of the merits of the issues a spokesman said. "It has only determined that objections meet the legal test to require a hearing. Fireworks manufacturers and traders from Taiwan. Macao. Hong Kong and Oklahoma had complained that the proposed federal crackdown might stick them with $50 million worth of newly banned hazardous substances.

They argued in a petition submitted last Friday that the hazard of at least some small firecrackers could be reduced to "acceptable and that certain legal requirements of the law had not been met in the commission's proposed actions. The commission estimated that 6.600 persons were treated in hospital emergency rooms for fireworks-related injuries last year. It concluded that while new performance standards could make most fireworks. including some rockets safer. there appeared to be no way to improve firecrackers short of a ban.

Commissioner Barbara Franklin said the proposed ban. even though stayed. heightened peoples' awareness of firecrackers" through the widespread publicity it received. The proposed regulations were opposed by a segment of the $180-million-a-year year industry supplying two-thirds of the rockets and one-third of the firecrackers sold in the United States. The domestic segment of the industry.

the American Pyrotechnics Association. whose members do not make firecrackers. supported the proposed ban. Hawaii was twice rebuffed in its requests for an extension of the public comment period. The state attorney general.

acting governor and chamber of commerce argued that firecrackers play an important role in Chinese-American religious and cultural celebrations. Ethel Chun Lum of Honolulu wrote the agency: There are religious. cultural and ceremonial rites for the 'kitchen gods' at 5 a.m.. New Year's from 1 p.m. to 2 a.m..

celebrations for. birthdays. weddings. deaths. anniversaries.

memorial days, housewarmings. openings of businesses. completions of new homes and buildings. special holy days for the numerous Taoist gods and Buddha. and many.

many other religious "The bombardments of firecrackers for these rites come any time during the day or night without warning to neighbors." she wrote. please be firm with the Portrait Of King Defaced ATLANTA, Ga.
