The official New China News Agency reports a 14 percent rise in overall industrial output for 1977 amid a fairly good agricultural harvest despite natural disasters. It notes gains in steel, fertilizer, chemicals, plastics, and the growing oil sector, with shortages in coal and power. The report also cites a seismology warning ignored before the 1976 Tangshan quake and blames political radicals for neglecting warnings.
