Carter Starkly Realigns as Griffin Takes New Post
President Carter reshapes his relationship with Congress after ousting Robert Griffin from the No 2 GSA role. Griffin becomes a special assistant to Robert Strauss on inflation and trade with a $50,000 annual pay and undefined duties. House Speaker ONeill resents the move but may calm to press Carter’s program. The shift signals Carter’s reluctant politics and readiness to work within Washington.
