Buffalo declares emergency as snow clogs streets and federal aid arrives
Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski issued an emergency declaration banning all but essential traffic to clear streets after a severe snowstorm. Federal disaster units from Ft. Bragg were ordered to fly in with equipment to assist in removing abandoned vehicles and snow drifts. A national gas shortage worsened closures affecting up to 1.5 million workers, while Congress moved toward an emergency gas relief bill approved by the Senate 91 to 2. The forecast called for more snow and winds up to 40 mph, easing tonight to 10 to 20 mph. Violators face arrest, fines, and imprisonment.

Senate natural gas bill could become law today
The Senate approved an emergency measure giving President Carter authority to ration natural gas and divert supplies to areas in need during cold weather. It would also free some gas from price controls until August 1, sending the bill to the House for a vote. The House version adds a new price cap for gas bought from the unregulated intrastate market during the emergency.

Carter plan relief promises no inflation risk says Blumenthal
The Carter administration told Congress the tax cut and job creation package worth 31.2 billion dollars over two years can boost the economy without triggering inflation. Blumenthal Schultze and Lance cautioned against a large expansion of the package, noting unemployment and unused capacity may temper inflation but food prices could rise with weather. Senate Republicans unveiled a rival plan featuring permanent tax cuts, while Carter proceeds with 11.4 billion in rebates and Social Security payments to spur spending. The Pecos Eagles Football banquet is scheduled Feb 12 at Pecos High School with guest Cliff Harriss and a dance to follow, tickets via booster club and local salons.
