Holbrooke said the action showed Hanoi’s goodwill and the families would be notified pending identifications by the Hawaii lab. The remains will be flown to Hawaii, with further talks planned, amid broader conditions including economic aid and trade embargo issues.

House Approves Five-Year Energy Department Plan
The House passed a bill to create a new energy department for a five year term unless renewed, 310 to 20, with a Senate already approving similar legislation. The measure abolishes three agencies, sets a price commission instead of giving the secretary broad powers, and faces a House-Senate conference. An amendment would end the department by December 31, 1982 if not extended.
