Two Congressional Clerks Run Private Million-Dollar Printing Firms
An audit shows two House printing clerks using government facilities to run private printing businesses that earned over 2 million dollars in 1976. Lankford and Ramage reportedly took large private contracts while earning about 15 000 yearly salaries, prompting calls to reduce pay and charge rent and utilities. The offices at the Rayburn building housed the services, with leadership proposing rent, utility charges, and salary cuts as a fix.

U S Senator John Tower argues that cap on crude oil prices leads to anticompetitive policy. He says deregulation would expand American exploration and reduce OPEC dominance, improving supply and prices while dismissing windfall profit concerns and noting the need for US production over Arab controls. An odd historical aside follows about ancient Persians and insects.
