Financial Market Decline Pushes Dow Lower Amid Oil Watch
New York stocks fell on Tuesday as traders priced in potential oil price hikes from an OPEC meeting in Africa. The Dow Jones average slid around 11 points in early trading and later trimmed losses, with Continental Oil, Amoco Richfield, and Standard Oil of California among losers. Ford Motor tumbled after signaling a production delay for 1976 models, while General Motors and Chrysler also slipped. The NYSE composite fell about 52 points, and trading remained active despite the wavering tone as investors monitored the oil outlook.

OPEC to Price Crude in SDR Instead of Dollars
In Gabon, OPEC agrees to quote crude oil prices in the IMF's special drawing rights rather than dollars. A committee weighs two options to implement the switch, potentially lifting or lowering prices for different currencies. An SDR-based shift could raise U S gasoline costs by about 1 to 1.44 cents per gallon.

Minorities Shorted In Government Contracts Study
The U S Civil Rights Commission reported that racial minorities and women receive far less than their share of the roughly 120 billion dollars spent annually on government contracts. The commission said minorities get less than 1.7 percent and the share to women‑owned firms is imperceptible, a two year staff study noted.

Plan for Temporary Bridge Repairs Detour Sparks Local Concern
The Colage Grove avenue SE bridge over Indian Creek may receive a temporary patch before rebuilding, Public Services Director Richard Jensen said Tuesday. The south lane is damaged and closed, with motorists diverting onto Thirtyfourth street though many ignore it, risking danger. Cost estimates will be issued in a few days and sent to President Ford and congressional leaders. The report critiques federal minority bid programs as only partly successful and urges actions to ensure minority and women owned firms gain contracts in proportion to their numbers within five years, calling for expansion of eligibility for development assistance.
