Witness Differs With Carter Over Lance Bank Troubles
Senate testimony by Robert Bloom shows Carter was briefed on Lance bank issues on December 1 and later claimed limited knowledge. Bloom cited an enforcement agreement at Calhoun First National Bank restricting overdrafts by Lance and family. A Justice Department note confirmed a comptroller report on bank aircraft use for family and political purposes. County forecast: showers tonight, then thunderstorms ending Tuesday, partly cloudy, highs in the upper 70s.

Israelis In A Rut
Tel Aviv reports that Israel's new peace plan presented to the United States closely mirrors Labor offers. Begin’s government approved the treaty draft for delivery to Washington and the UN, with a letter outlining general principles to Carter and Vance. The major territorial questions are not spelled in the draft but addressed in the accompanying letter. The plan emphasizes security, Jordan River sources, and navigation through the Gulf of Eilat, while defending key positions on the Golan Heights and Sinai coast.

Tie Vote Victory Of Sorts For Energy Plan
In a 9 to 9 tie, the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee narrowly preserved President Carter's energy plan by defeating a plan to deregulate natural gas prices. The panel kept a $1.75 per thousand cubic feet ceiling and prepared for further action on fuel taxes and efficiency measures as Congress debates energy policy and the 1978 budget.
