Carter vows slow push on tax reform and multinationals
Jimmy Carter told 52 business leaders at the 21 Club in New York that if elected he would move slowly on tax reform and retain the foreign tax credit for American firms. He pressed no rapid changes, favoring analysis before substantive shifts, and opposed deferrals on overseas profits. He also voiced continued US involvement abroad and time to study policy. The meeting was hosted by Coca Cola’s J Paul Austin, Seagram’s Edgar Bronfman Jr., and Ford’s Henry Ford II.

Visitor center dedication in Washington amid cost overruns
The National Visitors Center near the Capitol was officially dedicated with over 50 Park Service staff and multilingual volunteers. Funding overruns were cited after a $6 million estimate grew to about $8 million, prompting Interior Secretary Kleppe to halt work on a 1,000-car parking garage. The center, managed by the National Park Service, aims to orient tourists to Washington and the United States, amid White House sensitivity to campaign tensions and debates over candidates Ford and Reagan.
