About 100 residents at People's Unitarian Church town meeting with Rep. Blouin gave little backing to President Carter's energy proposals. A mix favored tax incentives with no mandates, while a similar number backed gas rationing or higher gas taxes. Blouin outlined the plan's goals, noting three options and stressing that the energy tax bill is a first step toward energy efficiency and new standards.
