Big Oil Profits Seen As Threat
United Nations economists warn that last year's oil price surge could push earnings of organized oil exporters to about 85 billion dollars in 1974, more than five times 1972. They caution profits may trigger inflation and unemployment, and urge sharing gains to prevent new trade barriers and a global contraction in trade and production. They project Western economies pay about 50 billion more for oil imports in 1974, with inflation and investment declines likely, while developing regions face a threefold rise to 15 billion in oil imports.
