McCloskey assails maritime influence at Anaheim meeting
Congressman Paul McCloskey harshly criticized maritime industry influence in Washington and urged witnesses be allowed to testify on proposed legislation guaranteeing U S flag tankers a share of oil imports. He chaired a debate on industry protections amid calls to abolish the federal maritime commission and faced a party-line defeat on subpoenas. Jeffrey Cooper warned oil import costs could rise sharply without conservation, predicting costs rising from 40 billion to 150 billion by 1980s.

State panel weighs gas price dilemma in California
Sacramento AP The State Lands Commission considers raising natural gas prices to avoid appearing to give it away. Controller Kenneth Cory says higher prices raise consumer bills, while lower revenue means higher taxes. The move centers on a $1.20 per thousand cubic feet deal with PG&E and Chevron, covering a small share of state gas use. The staff cites a fair market value of $1.91 for royalty gas from specific fields.
