Dictating product safety.

The article focuses on the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's drive on dangerous products. Delegates to the 1974 National Conference on Product Safety discussed ways and means to minimize conflicts between state and federal product safety laws and to coordinate the enforcement of the Consumer Product Safety Act. The Commission earned criticisms in its pursuit to minimize the dangerous effects of unsafe products. The Congress though has guaranteed the independence of the Commission from political and business pressures.
