Carter Says Foreign Trip Will Spotlight Energy Legislation Needs
President Carter said his six nation visit starting Thursday aims to dramatize the need for action on energy legislation and he has received private signs from congressional negotiators of a possible compromise. He stressed a fair bill that conserves energy and avoids harming the nation, while seeking passage early next year. He also discussed Middle East roles, SALT talks, and a Federal Reserve reshuffle naming G. William Miller to chair the Fed, with Burns remaining on the board if possible.

Mississippi's 40 remaining endangered sandhill cranes move closer to a permanent home as 6,000 acres are added to a 26,000 acre critical habitat in south-central Jackson County. The Nature Conservancy bought 5,000 acres and donated 1,000 more from St. Regis Paper Co. for 3.775 million dollars, with the land later purchased by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The new tract joins the existing 2,596 acre refuge and includes breeding grounds for the colony.
