Carter Won Warm European Welcome Seen As Friendship Not Hat Size
President Carter returned from his Europe trip amid strong, friendly reactions.

Bergland tightens outside work rules for USDA staff
Agriculture Secretary Bergland issues strict memoranda banning outside employment that could create conflicts of interest and prohibiting honorariums or payments for speeches articles or appearances. The rules apply to all USDA officials and extend beyond prior limits, with guidance to consult USDA counselors on unique cases. The memo aims to guide new officials entering the Carter era and stresses no fees for speaking on any subject, hobby or official or nonofficial. Entities include USDA, Bergland, Carter administration, and government advisory bodies. The Mideast oil region is highlighted as a hot market for poultry and eggs with U S exporters seeking larger shares amid high demand and logistical challenges. The USDA Foreign Agricultural Service notes export totals rose from 541000 in 1970 to $34.8 million last year, driven by expanding markets and regional economic growth. A separate note remarks that grass refers to cattle feed not marijuana, despite pamphlets that could raise issues if misused.
