HUD to pay rent rebates for 1975 77 increases
The HUD will issue nearly 60 million dollars in lump sum rebates to more than 500000 tenants in federally subsidized housing who faced rent hikes in 1975 to 1977 due to higher utility costs and taxes. The payments, up to 1000 dollars, are for renters in Section 236 projects who paid more than 30 percent of their adjusted gross income during the period.

Teamsters Seek to Avoid Taft Hartley Injunction in Trucking Talks
Washington UPI reports negotiators for the Teamsters and trucking industry pressed on non economic contract issues as a Taft Hartley injunction looms. A federal hearing on government disclosure for a back to work order was set as the 300000-strong union ponders a possible strike when the three year pact expires at midnight Saturday. Frank Fitzsimmons and J Curtis Counts said progress was made though the union warned of unsatisfactory progress amid wage guideline tensions with the Carter administration. The union initially sought a 35 percent wage boost over three years, while the industry offered 6.9 percent first-year rise.
