Carter S Social Security plan meets Senate opposition
Senate Finance Committee chairman Russell Long said he cannot back President Carter's plan to shift 14 billion dollars from general revenue into Social Security reserves. Long supported financing reforms to keep reserves from running out by 1983, and suggested taxing options including a value added tax while warning against regressive effects unless integrated with Social Security. He predicts tax reform will reduce government income and argues the tax burden should hit the wealthy as much as possible without being counterproductive.

Probe set in oil trade competition practices
The Justice Department antitrust division probes possible anticompetitive practices in the international crude oil trade. Acting chief John H. Shenefield says inquiry targets production restraints and Arab-nation pipeline concerns, with results expected in about a month. The department may pursue litigation to divest some oil company pipelines. In California, three temporary rock dams would be built in the Sacramento Delta to reduce salinity and conserve water under a bill sent Thursday.
