Supreme Court upholds natural gas rate ceiling rulings
The Supreme Court refused to block the Federal Power Commission's national average price ceiling for newly produced natural gas. The decision upholds the commission's plan to raise ceilings to spur production while noting potential economic impacts. A Durkin report warns of a $13.9 billion rise in natural gas costs by 1978 and about 300,000 extra unemployed workers if a broader bill restricting controls passes.
