Raw Material Shortage Triggers Global Mistrust
A White House study says world resources are ample for the long term but current shortages and economic instability threaten growing mistrust among nations. It notes U S dependence on imports for about 15 percent of consumption versus 75 percent for Western Europe and 90 percent for Japan, with Canada Australia and South Africa as major suppliers. The report, ordered by President Nixon, cites possible future cartels though few have formed, and warns that oil price shocks spur inflation and market volatility globally.

Kidnapped Miami Boy Recalls Father's Client as Motive
A 70 year old boy found severely beaten six days after being abducted from his suburban Miami home says his captor was told by the boy’s father, real estate attorney Hugh Carrier, that he was “your daddy's client.” Coral Gables police await medical clearance before questioning. The boy suffered an infected skull fracture and possible eye damage after being found incoherent in the Big Cypress Swamp. The case links the abduction to a claim the father’s connections yielded payment to the kidnapper, though no ransom demands were reported. Meanwhile a birth at Audrain Medical Center in Centralia is noted.
