Meany Sets Formidable Job Task For Carter
AFL-CIO chief George Meany urged four million jobs a year for four years and a balanced budget, financed by a $5 billion public works infusion while opposing a business tax cut. He warned that the goals clash with pushes for private-sector vitality and fiscal balance, noting 1977 employment strength but a still high jobless rate.

Big Soviet Oil Deposit Hard To Get
The Soviet Union holds a vast undiscovered oil base in the West Siberian Basin, estimated at 48 billion barrels of oil and 300 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, but its remote location and frozen ground will hinder development and transport to markets, as U.S. Geological Survey estimates indicate significant challenges ahead. The report notes Russia’s distant industry, harsh terrain, and the need for new pipelines and technology amid broader geopolitical energy implications. Also, a Tennessee Valley Authority power emergency ends as temperatures moderate and generating units are repaired, easing the 5 percent voltage cutback.
