Energy Crisis Prompt Public Aid to Weather Gas Shortage
Ford administration warns natural gas shortages could exceed last winter by 30 percent. Officials say supply may be 15 to 16 percent below demand on average with worse gaps in eastern states. Officials propose conservation and the lifting of FPC price rules to release supplies and enable higher interstate and intrastate gas purchases. The White House plans a veto on a domestic oil price controls extension, while Mansfield urges a compromise bill within 30 to 45 days.
