CeIebrezze Hits Firm
On Drug Distribution

The william s. Merrell Co.
distributed millions Of thalid-
omide tablets to physicians
who were not drug investiga-
tors, Welfare Secretary Cele-
breeze charged today.
The drug, linked to infant
malformationS, was never re-
leased in the United States for
general sale or use. Prior to such
release, drugs legally may be
sent in interstate commerce
when labeled "for investiga-
tionaI use only"
Secretary Celebrezze makes
the charge in a letter to New
York Times Columnist Howard
A, Rusk, concerning an article
on new drug regulations. A copy
Of the letter was made available
to The Star by a HEW official
today.
The lettar says, in part:
'It Is unfortunately true, as
the thalidomide incident so
well illustrates, that the drug
industry does not now always
adhere to high standards,
either in planning the investi-

cation. selecting the investi-
gators or providing the investi-
gators with full information
about the hazards that may be
expected In conducting clinical
trial.
THE proposed regulations
(on irvestigational drugs)
would change this. And they
would have made it impossible
for Merrell to have distributed
millions Of tablets to physi-
clans who made no pretense Of
being investigators.
They would have required
the development Of a rational
plan Of investigation and its
conduct on a sound scientific
basis"
At present, Food and Drug
Administration regulations re-
quire proper labelling Of inves-
tigational drugs. They also re-
quire that drug companies pro-
cure statements Of the qualifi-
cations Of physicians to whom
drugs are sent for ihvestiga-
tional use. But there is no ex-
act definition Of what these
qualifications should be.

GSAto Siqn
New Fuel
Contract

The United States Court of
Appeals yesterday cleared the
way for General Services Ad-
ministration to sign a new con-
tract for fuel to heat Govern
ment buildings.
The three-judge court denied
a laSt-ditch request by Steuart
Petroleum Co. to prevent the
signing, pending appeal Of a
lower court decision.
The oil company, which has
handled storage and delivery of
oil used by GSA to heat Gov
ernment buildings around
Washington. claimed the deal
would violate an existing con-
tract 1t has with GSA.
Last week, Steuart won q re-
straining order which tempo
rarily enjoined GSA from sign
ing the contract, but was denied
a more permanent injunction
after a hearing before Judge
John j. Sirica Monday.
Judge Sirica extended the
stay until yesterday afternoon
to allow Steuart's attorney, Rob-
ert v. Smith, an opportunity to
appeal. Assistant q. S. Attor-
ney Gil Zimmerman represented
the Government.
Steuart may, If it chooses. file
suit in the United States Court
of Claims for breach of con-
tract, the lower court noted.

President KennedyS cnleI
economic advisor indicated to-
day that the administration
feels confident of avoiding a
recession, at least through the
end Of 1862.
I'VE foreSee a continued
modest expansion (of the econ
ony) through the end Of this
YEAR" Walter w. Heller told
the White House Conference OF
business Magazine Editors and
Publishers.
Mr.. Heller, chairman Of the
Council of Economic Advisors,
did not go beyond the end OF
this year in forecasting eco
nomic activity.
Administration officials hope
that q tax cut early in 1868
will stimulate the economy and
prevent q new recession. But
they are not sure that a tax
cut will take effect soon enough.
Mr.. Heller conceded that the
economy's recovery from the
1901 recession has fallen
short of expectations. He put
most Of the blame on business
investment.
Inventory investment has
fallen short Of targets because
businessmen are too cautious
to build up stocks, he said.
Profit Squeeze Discounted
Mr.. Heller discounted the
idea that a squeeze" on
profits is a major cause OF
business reluctance to invest,
but he added that tax cuts
and other incentives are
needed to stimulate invest
ment.
Taxes now impose "an ex-
cessive burden on incentives"
Mr.. Heller said, so rates must
be reduced to stimulate the
economy. He said the planned
1858 tax cuts will produce a
temporary buget deficit, but
said this win be q down pay
ment" on full employment and
future budget surpluses.
Mr.. Heller denied that the
administration is trying to con-
troll the economy.
Questioned about the admin
istration's attitude on steel
prices, he said the Presidents
policy does not rule out "selec-
tive" price increases in any
industry, since some prices can
rise without upsetting overall
price stability throughout the
economy.
