Kissinger pressed for lower prices as PLO and Arab states rejected his peace plan at Rabat. Rabbo said Israel would cede Sinai and Golan, with Egypt no-war pledges, but Arabs balked at price concessions.

County water study eyed for shared Sixes Bridge Dam supply
City chemist George K. Smith urged that if a Sixes Bridge Dam is built the water be allocated to Frederick County communities after Army Corps of Engineers and Washington Water Supply priorities. He called for talks with Walkersville, Fort Detrick and the Metropolitan Commission to reach a county wide agreement. Seven of ten commissioner candidates answered the water department survey showing support for a county resource study amid drought concerns. Smith noted three candidates did not respond and asked whether their silence signals disinterest in the city’s water supply.
