British MP
 Says U. s. Grain Is Contaminated

LONDON, R - A Laborite member of Parliament asserted Monday that American wheat has been so seriously contaminated by deadly Strontium 90 from atomic tests that it should be barred from Britain.
 The Laborite, Kenni Zilliacus, raised the matter with the Brit ish Health Minister, Dere Walker Smith, during a question period in the House of Commons.
 Zilliacus said 1858 samplings of U. S. wheat averaged 50 per cent above the Atomic Energy Commissions safe limit for Stron- tium 90, suspected major cause of bone cancer. Samples of Minne- sota wheat, he said, contained six times the safe limit.
