Energy bill labeled too loaded for solo in Congress
Congress failed to pass emergency energy legislation as lawmakers criticize excessive amendments and complexity. House Leader Rep. Rhotes of Arizona says the bill is loaded like a Christmas tree while discussions on oil allocation rules extend delays. President Nixon signals support for separate measures and voluntary fuel saving. International energy moves include a 128 percent oil price rise planned by six Persian Gulf states and a smaller increase eyed by Venezuela.
