Carter energy price plan nears final action stalemate ending
Congressional aides say a breakthrough in President Carter's energy program may come soon as House and Senate negotiators meet to resolve key natural gas pricing details. Leaders claim sufficient votes exist to pass the compromise, which would end the yearlong logjam and lift federal controls on new natural gas from 1985, with interim price increases around 10 percent. The plan is expected to be sent back to each chamber for a final vote, while energy taxes are likely to be handled in separate legislation.
