Portrait Clue Emerges In Betsy Ross Saga Discovery
Philadelphia AP reports a discovered 1832 portrait of Betsy Ross by Samuel Waldo may illuminate the claim she sewed the first American flag. The painting, found 12 years ago but noted recently in The Flag Bulletin, bears a back inscription and could resolve long scholarly skepticism. Betsy Ross, born Betsy Claypoole, became Betsy Ross after 1777.

Gasoline Prices Rise For Holiday
Gasoline prices rose one to three cents a gallon this week at 14 major oil companies as Americans prepared for Fourth of July auto trips. Major boosts came from Shell, Phillips, Continental, Clark, and Ashland, with higher costs linked to summer demand and the June tariff. The FEA signaled potential further increases if Ford moves to price controls on domestic crude. Treasury Secretary Simon warned of possible countermeasures if foreign producers raise prices again this fall. First National City Bank hiked its prime rate to 7 percent as the Fed tightens money supply to curb inflation.
