Carter seeks Congress on energy inflation options
President Carter met with Cabinet officers and advisers for over eight hours at Camp David to review energy and inflation proposals and said he would seek congressional cooperation on options. Powell ruled out wage and price controls and said no decisions were made. Carter plans a March decision on energy measures including phasing out 1973 price controls, a move critics say could raise consumer costs. Congress heard governors faulting Washington signals on energy and a DOE study questioned weekend gasoline bans as ineffective.

Brooke Ethics Panel Finds Misconduct But No Discipline
Washington (UPI) The Senate Ethics Committee said former Senator Edward Brooke violated conduct rules but the misconduct was not serious enough for disciplinary action. Brooke, 59, is not a senator, so no action will be taken. the panel noted even if he were still in office, the case would close without further action. The report cites sworn deposition misstatements about a $49,000 Tye loan, a misreported 27,500 transaction, and questions about a 1972 money item, concluding no substantial grounds for censure or expulsion. On this date in 1828 Henrik Ibsen was born.
