Carter weighs tax cut as Cabinet list grows
President elect Carter said he is not convinced there should be a tax cut next year after narrowing his cabinet nominees to about 70 people. He spoke after voting in Plains as his brother Billy ran for mayor. Ford said he will stay active in the Republican Party and support a coordinating committee, stressing no intention to seek office. He downplayed a mood of gloom and noted ongoing questions over unemployment, bomber production, pardons for draft evaders, and Carter’s forthcoming cabinet interviews in Atlanta and Washington.

Coleman declined to urge federal pressure for mandatory seat belt laws though urging better belt design and safety. He noted hearings in August on air bags and said they are technically and economically feasible. About 12 000 cars on the road have air bags with only around 100 deployments in accidents. Automakers expect 10 million cars this model year with air bags in dashboards or steering wheels.
