Energy czar urges 10 gallon weekly gasoline limit
Washington AP. Energy czar William Simon asked drivers to voluntarily cap consumption at 10 gallons per week to avoid mandatory rationing. He outlined no immediate enforcement and warned utilities over misleading ads while proposing a possible line-ration plan if Congress authorizes it. Simon also announced 1.5 million barrels of military jet fuel from the Pentagon stockpile to aid international airlines through January. The administration reported fuel savings and import gains since Nov 10, with broader energy legislation moving through Congress amid price and policy debates.
