Senate battles over gas price controls and antitrust bids
The Senate kept controls on old gas while delaying price rises for years. Aimed at preventing a winter shortage, the plan lets intrastate surplus gas reach nonproducing states at up to 2 dollars per thousand cubic feet, with homes and small users kept at 32 cents. Senators also defeated Hart and Kennedy measures to break up major oil firms, preserving energy consolidation concerns.
