Nixon reshuffles power as Laird gains high duties
President Nixon shifts balance by granting Melvin Laird cabinet rank on the National Security Council and wide access to the President while insisting he is not implicated in Watergate. He also elevates aides Rueckelshaus and Richardson, and nudges Senate GOP Leader Scott and House Leader Ford to dictate their own agendas, signaling a paradoxical move to heal the administration. Former Texas governor Connally's role remains unsettled as timing uncertain.

Morton proposes energy department to unify federal energy policy
Interior Secretary Rogers C. Morton says Congress will be asked to create a cabinet level Department of Energy and Natural Resources. The department would consolidate most of Interior, add the Forest Service, NOAA, and some Army Corps planning. He envisions a White House energy policy unit and his own potential as head. He warned gasoline prices may rise for four to five years. APPA claims utilities may face brownouts due to fuel costs and urged priority in government fuel allocations.
