Court sidesteps air time access dispute to Congress
The Supreme Court ruled 7 to 2 that neither the Constitution nor federal law requires broadcasters to sell time for public issues as they do for ads. It left open the possibility of access on demand and urged FCC guidance within a year. The decision also upheld some warrantless searches and narrowed congressional immunity for aides.

The Nixon administration weighs a four to five cent increase in the federal gasoline tax as a revenue move to balance the 1974 budget. Treasury officials say each extra cent could raise $1 billion, with potential benefits for transit use and air quality, though it would impact low income brackets and may temper the campaign pledge not to raise taxes.
