A reader in debt asks if their finances are risky with $25,000 annual income for a family of four. Ann advises assessing loans totaling $15,500, two paid cars, no savings, and urges meeting with a bank advisor to create a pay back and savings plan to avoid deeper trouble.
Energy Secretary James B Edwards urged decontrol of oil prices citing abundant crude stocks while warning small refiners may struggle. The debate highlighted Edwards rising influence on Capitol Hill as he secured Senate confirmation amid questions about his past. The piece notes unpursued information on Edwards and a South Carolina land deal.
The Hutchinson Island dike case shows Edwards campaign for governor overlapped with a late 1970s investigation. The Army Corps of Engineers pursued a cease and desist, but work continued and a referral to the U.S. attorney surfaced just before the election. The case was delayed, then the partners later retroactively legalised the work, and the dike was finally dynamited in 1977. Edwards vetoed a tidelands bill keeping Hutchinson Island under state control. No punishment followed.
