Frederick County Signs Courthouse Complex Cost-Sharing Contract
Frederick County Commissioners approve a plan allowing Maryland to occupy 30 percent of a new courthouse complex and share 70 percent of costs. The state would fund 30 percent of acquisition and maintenance, with county funds covering 70 percent and potential post-signature adjustments. Some commissioners oppose, fearing it surrenders county responsibilities. The contract allows state and county participation in bidding, inspections, and audits, with final acceptance by the State Department of General Services.

Attorney General Defends Underground Wiring Law Valid
Maryland Attorney General Francis B. Burch argues Chapter 651 of the Laws of 1974 is constitutional. The suit in Frederick County Circuit Court by Samuel H. Rosenstock and 17 residents seeks an injunction against the South Market Street project.

Congress to nix Ford oil price control plan
Congress expected to reject the administration plan to phase out oil price controls over 30 months after President Ford vetoed a bill expanding controls. The House likely will not override the veto but can pass a simple majority to block the phase out, leaving prices tied to world levels and potentially boosting gasoline costs. Federal officials circulating ideas for a compromise include Frank G. Zarb who warned of differing energy policy views.
