Senate Backs Compromise on Appalachian Strip Mining Rules
The Senate voted to tighten a mining exemption, limiting relief to 24 months for 86 percent of mines, leaving 23 percent of coal production under federal controls. A provision allows use of reclamation funds for schools and roads, with a 25 cent coal tax. Critics warn eastern and western mining impacts remain.

Pact Approved Japan Agrees To Limit TV Exports To U.S.
In Washington Japan agreed to limit color television set exports to the United States in a three year pact the first international agreement of the Carter era aimed at protecting U.S. industry from foreign competition. The deal covers 1.73 million complete and partial sets to be shipped from 1976 to 1979 and excludes black and white sets. Special Trade Ambassador Robert Strauss called the accord a healthy step to curb imports and reduce potential inflation while protecting American jobs. He noted the administration favors voluntary limits over tariffs and is pursuing similar deals with Taiwan and South Korea.
