Energy Bill OK'd Heats Up Fuel Costs Across Nation
The House approved President Carter’s energy program aimed at conserving fuel by raising costs and altering usage. The 272 to 148 GOP defeat preceded a 244 to 177 passage. The plan extends natural gas price controls, taxes inefficient cars, funds home weatherization, and promotes utility efficiency as part of a broader shift to reduce energy demand.

Mixed reactions rise to Carter alien proposal in Las Vegas
In Las Vegas discussion over Carter's immigration plan draws varied views. Walsh notes 48 percent of those apprehended had long ties to the city and cites existing 5 000 aliens in southern Nevada with unclear current estimates. Brents estimates 2 000 to 24 000 Latin Americans in Clark County, many in hotels. Carter calls for stronger border control and employer penalties, but supporters warn the plan will not solve the problem quickly.
