White House Defends Shah While Oil Clash Simmered
The Ford White House hosted the shah over crepes and caviar as he pressed for higher oil prices. Internal papers ridicule his inflation claims, noting oil hikes stem from producer actions and not demand, with economists pointing to weather and market factors behind food costs and urging restraint in public comment. A separate sea chase report details a four hour pursuit of a drug-smuggling launch off Todos Santos, resulting in one death and 800 pounds of marijuana seized. In Topeka, an interim committee will delay action on affirmative action hiring until Governor Bennett’s plan is reviewed, delaying state government minority hiring directives.
