He argues greed drives the free market but can fuel needed energy development. He also discusses uranium prices, Alaska gas options, and the pursuit of cheaper energy through Canada.

Campaign to Fight Canal Treaty Draws Conservative Campaign
A coalition of conservative groups plans ads and mail campaigns opposing ratification of the new Panama Canal treaty. Senator Jessie Helms promised a filibuster, while President Carter pressed for approval with support from Gerald Ford and Henry Kissinger. Conservatives argue the canal should stay US property and oppose Omar Torrijos’s leftist leadership.
