Senators blame industry over seat belt price increases
Washington reports two senators accuse automakers of overcharging for new lap shoulder seat belts required for 1968 cars. Magnuson and Mondale cite data claiming prices may exceed actual cost, while Ralph Nader cites White House intervention as a factor. Estimates from industry and suppliers vary, with costs reportedly far lower than some cited prices. A separate item notes a Nationalist Chinese motorcycle contest offering to pay couples’ expenses if they marry on a motorcycle in a mass ceremony.
