Carter energy tax plan clears House panel
The House Ways and Means Committee approved President Carter's energy tax package by 9 to 13, with most Republicans opposing. It projects oil saves of 2.8 million barrels daily by 1985, below Carter's 4.7 million target, and includes higher gas prices, a four cent gasoline tax extension through Oct 1, 1985, and credits for weatherization and home solar or wind installations. The measure advances to a special energy committee for merging with related bills.
