Damaged earthen dam prompts evacuations in Alabama hills
A fenced earthen dam on a private lake in Centre Alabama developed a new leak Thursday. Civil Defense evacuated a dozen homes and a church after rainfall weakened the structure. Officials said drainage pipes were damaged by pressure from heavy rain, but the danger appeared to ease by Monday afternoon as the lake level dropped and cracks were observed in the dam.

In Washington, President Carter’s proposed 49 per person tax rebate survived a GOP challenge in the Senate Finance Committee by 12 to 8 after four Democrats backed the party line. The panel rejected substitute plans for a permanent tax cut and postponed further action on the bill, with decisions on standard deduction provisions and business incentives due Friday. Administration aides, led by Charles Schultze, argued the rebate is needed to spur a faltering economy and warned permanent cuts could hinder broader tax reform.
