Permanent grain inspection reform proposed in Senate hearing
Agriculture official J Phil Campbell urged a Senate subcommittee to shelve stopgap grain inspection bills and back a permanent solution. He spoke as Humphrey pressed for rapid action to restore foreign buyers confidence after last year’s 15 billion dollar grain exports. Campbell noted possible conflicts with private inspectors and said the department is considering new, alternative approaches to inspection.

Irrigation gas will stay at Priority 2 through mid 1976, preventing a drop to Priority 3. Eight priority levels govern gas shutoffs during shortages.

House Nears End Of Energy Bill Debate
The House advances an omnibus energy bill amid Ford administration opposition. Key votes loom on amendments including a possible three cent rise in the federal gasoline tax. The House approved an energy trust fund provision and tax breaks for fuel processing equipment while resisting a coal equipment exemption. Ford signals possible veto if Senate does not significantly improve the measure. A second energy step could remove controls on oil and natural gas, risking a sharp price rise. A separate note states the County Junior College District may not fund Angelo State University president salaries.
