U S Senator Robert Morgan of North Carolina asks Congress for a 4 million supplemental appropriation to fund Falls of the Neuse Dam north of Raleigh. He says completing the dam sooner will ease Raleigh area water shortages and allow the Corps of Engineers to proceed in fiscal year 1977, with completion possible by 1981. The project has lingered since 1932.

North Carolina dairies cut school milk bids this year
Major North Carolina dairies lowered school lunch milk bids by one-third to one-half cent per half pint from last year. The attorney general’s office monitors bids after 1974 price fixing accusations. Dairies settled in 1975 without admitting wrongdoing but agreed to share bids. Early-year prices suggest competitive reach and could save school systems thousands.
