Strip mine ban irrefutably reshapes coal industry state
The UPI report notes Senate passage of a nationwide strip mining ban seen as irreplaceable by coal industry spokesman Carl B. Bagge while environmentalists hailed the move. The bill, authored by Sen. Henry Jackson, would require land restoration and prohibit highwalls with six months for federal standards and one year for state enactment. Some lawmakers warned of economic impact, yet supporters argue the plan preserves land and allows future mining with containment.

War signals strain on U S oil needs this winter
White House energy adviser John A Love warned that if Saudi Arabia cuts oil exports amid the Arab Israeli war the United States may not import all the home heating oil it needs this winter. He said contingency plans include possible outdoor lighting reductions as a conservation step. Kuwait urged Arab oil producers to reexamine policies while past embargoes showed US shortages. In Q2 1973 US Middle East oil imports averaged 694,800 barrels daily, about 22 percent of total. Saudi Arabia supplied 368,300 barrels daily. The administration estimates 600,000 barrels daily of heating oil will be required for the 180 day winter period.
