West Texas push for super highway from Lubbock to San Angelo
West Texans urged the state highway commission to build a 281 mile super highway from Lubbock through Lamesa and Big Spring to San Angelo with connections to U S 83 and Interstate 10. The plan, first proposed in 1956, would cost about 455 million dollars and aim to relieve severe transport gaps for oil and agricultural areas.

Nixon Questions Camp David Progress and Cuba Stance
The president expressed that peace talks with Egypt and Israel are moving slowly but not unusually slow compared to Camp David progress. He denied any Soviet atomic weapons in Cuba and said the administration will pursue better China relations without selling weapons to either China or the Soviet Union. He also defended his human rights policy against former President Nixon’s criticism, saying Nixon has the right to speak and it does not concern him.

Gas price impacts vary by user and distributors
A natural trade group estimates the $1.7 billion pool would average about $14 per housing unit if evenly spread, but Williams notes that individual gas bills will differ widely. Some pipelines and distributors must buy more new gas at the higher price, and usage varies among residences, broadening impact.

Gas price shift under Carter law to deregulate by 1985
The article notes a two year path to price changes as pipelines adjust to semiannual opportunities. It cites a Carter signed law aiming to remove federal controls on new gas by 1985 and estimates a 25 to 42 percent rise for households by then, with about 35 percent growth likely even under prior rules. Householders may gain if the law shifts more price hikes to industrial users.

Shell says refinery shutdowns and higher gasoline demand drive problems, not oil supply. Alaskan crude has high sulfur, hindering processing on the West Coast. Oil now ships via Panama Canal to Gulf Coast refineries. Pipelines planned to speed delivery may take a year or more to operate.
