Energy plan hits new snag in Senate amid price controls clash
Senate action focused on mandatory coal use for many industries and plants as part of President Carter's five part energy plan.

House and Senate leaders warn of a filibuster as critics say the terms favor oil and gas interests. Carter and six other non communist nations pledge to boost world employment and cut U S oil use.
