Interpol joins probe of Marsico
Interpol has opened an investigation into a Brazilian link to convicted thief Anthony J. Marsico. Authorities seek to determine if funds from more than 320000 in auto license fees stolen by Marsico were concealed in Brazil and what he did during a Rio de Janeiro visit from January 31 to February 7, 1975. The U.S. State Department urged the move, and Marsico now serves a 3 to 10 year term after admitting the theft.

Dealers force Ford price cut
Ford Motor Co rolled back most of its 113 dollar per car price increase on 1976 models after dealer and competitor pressure. Bennett E. Bidwell said refunds would be available for any added charges since January 5, with GM not following suit aiding the rollback. The net effect eliminated a 97 dollar rise on base car price and reduced truck and option price increases, preserving a 35 dollar truck safety belt charge.
