High court rejects retroactive Social Security benefits
The Supreme Court overturned a New York federal court ruling that a 1972 Social Security Act amendment banning sex discrimination in benefits should be retroactive. Will Webster of Northport sued after discovering he would have earned $38.30 more monthly if treated as a woman. The court ruled Congress’ 1972 equalization was not retroactive and did not admit prior policy was discriminatory.

Sohio Faces Lower Q1 Profits Amid Cold Weather
Standard Oil of Ohio reports expected first quarter earnings well below last year's level due to crude oil costs, cold weather, and wildcat coal strikes. A Sohio spokesman cited January and February operations while noting the decline relates to regulatory disclosure linked to debentures for the Alaska pipeline, with the project not the cause of the drop. The pipeline aims to transport oil from Alaska’s North Slope and is expected to operate this year.

Congress to simplify taxes again amid reform push
Congress pushes tax simplification after a prior reform caused many errors. The Senate Finance Committee drafts a plan to streamline the process, aiming to ease filing for about nine percent of taxpayers, while a separate bill seeks expanded union picketing rights and new financial-disclosure rules for senators. The tax changes target future returns, not the 1976 filings due April 15, and would take effect next year for the 177 filing period.
