President Ford told a Phoenix news conference he will not seek wage or price controls or a gasoline tax increase and urged Congress to confirm Nelson Rockefeller as vice president. He defended Rockefeller’s nomination, said there are no conditions under which he would withdraw Rockefeller, and criticized Democratic gains as a mandate with accountability.
