Oil Industry Urges Twofold Approach to Imports
Antitrust chief McLaren urged scrapping import quotas in favor of a twofold plan: a competitive domestic oil industry ready to switch to cheaper foreign sources and a government program to ensure reserves and expansion capacity. He warned quotas harm efficiency and raise costs while enabling foreign control. Russians and Chinese clashed over borders in Asia as Wang Ming, China’s exiled leader, reemerged critiquing Mao and suggesting potential Soviet leverage in East Asia. U.S. oil firms faced opposition to abandoning import quotas, with Mobil and Shell cautioning impacts on exploration, gas output, and the balance of payments.

It notes possible Supreme Court appeal and cites Taylor County schools losing 204675 in federal aid for alleged 1964 Civil Rights Act noncompliance.
