Transfers in gasoline coupons emerge in Nixon plan
Washington AP reports energy advisers favor a transferable coupon system with a gasoline tax to curb demand. The plan, dubbed the white market by planners, could be paired with a higher federal gas tax or stand money, while a War II style nontransferable scheme was dropped. Deputy energy secretary Simon backs transferability to curb black markets and shrink bureaucracy. Details outline issuing coupons per vehicle or driver license, allowing saving, sale, or cashing at state banks. Bridgeport, Conn, officials weigh legality and impact on school calendars and evening programs amid potential fuel shortages.

Energy program urged to reach self sufficiency by 1980
Washington AP reports AEC chairman Dixy Lee Ray urged a five year 22.5 billion program to push America toward energy self sufficiency. The plan calls for expanded oil and gas production, more coal use, nuclear energy from dispatable fuels, hydro geothermal and solar power, plus ocean energy. The proposal would expect 12.5 billion from private sources and aims to cut imports by half by 1980. The report, prepared in response to Nixon’s directive, recommends nearly 1.6 billion in the 1975 federal budget for energy programs.

U S Authorizes Heating Oil Price Increase and Gasoline Cut
The Cost of Living Council approved a two cent rise in home heating oil prices to boost production, while ordering a one cent cut at the refinery level for gasoline. Consumers will pay the extra two cents per gallon for heating oil this January, though gasoline prices may not drop immediately due to other production costs. The heating oil increase covers all distillate fuels including diesel, kerosene, and jet fuel. This move tests the theory behind price adjustments to stimulate supply.
