Carter backs Kissinger Turkish lease deal amid Cyprus tie
The Carter administration endorses a four year defense pact with Turkey signed by Kissinger, but will delay action on the $1 billion aid package until Turkey concedes on Cyprus. It seeks to relax the arms embargo and approve $225 million in next year sales, including a $50 million exemption for continued F 4 Phantom sales. Opposition among some senators and allies grows over linking Cyprus to the bases agreement.

Carter energy plans said to ignore mass transportation
Administration sources said the Carter energy plan will not link conservation with a unified public transport policy. Transportation Secretary Brock Adams proposed using higher gasoline taxes to fund mass transit, while critics said the plan lacks integrated transit strategies and clear funding allocations. Adams emphasized alternatives to private autos as fuel supplies dwindle, noting consumer messaging and phrasing must show specific transportation goals.
