Oilmen donate to redecorate White House
Oil industry figures say gifts to fund White House redecorating were given to show support for Reagan policies and not to gain favors. Holmes Tuttle organized the effort in Texas and Oklahoma, raising $735,912 in tax-deductible donations, with 23 oil industry donors contributing $270,000. Most contributors were from Oklahoma and Texas, and gifts exceeded the initial $200,000 goal.

Johns Hopkins study backs CETA job gains in Baltimore
A Johns Hopkins University seven year study of 1700 Baltimore area workers shows three quarters of CETA participants found unsubsidized employment within three years of leaving public service jobs. By two years 78 percent were in the regular labor market and only six percent were still seeking work after five years. The research challenges Reagan administration claims and notes health and social consequences of unemployment.
