Energy Spending Ideas Gain in Congress, But Nonefor Tax Financing WASHINGTON(UPI) — The Senate Finance Committee today appeared to be headed toward an energy tax bill containing numerous ways to spend moneyon energy production — but few, if any, tax increases to pay for them. The committeealso tentatively decided to remove Carter's power to impose duties on imported crude oil. Energy Secretary James Schlesinger threatened such a duty if Carter's domestic tax plan were not passed. Finance Chairman Russell Long, D-La., predicted that as long as two weeks maybe required forthebill to clear his committee, after whichit still faces Senate action before going to conferenceto iron out differences with a bill passed in the House. But Long also predicted that the Democratic strategy of leaving any tax increases out ofthebill would assure Senate passage. The strategy envisions writing a bill almost from scratch in the HouseSenate conference, combining some of the House energy tax increases with Senate ideas on how to spend the tax revenue. The House approved mostof the energy taxes that Carter requested, including a tax to raise domestic crude oil prices to the higher world price, a tax on gas-guzzling automobiles and a tax on industrial use of oil and gas Thursday's session of the Senate c produced a series of confusing and largely unstructured actions including a vote to support “in principle” the idea of passing enough tax credits and tax moratoriums to produce the energy savings en- erra Nevada foothills. villi a Scott said Kimberly Dawn Best Monmouth, Ore., and Paige Suzann Sinclair, Dalles, Ore, her nigh school classmate, were shot, Miss Sinclair also had been bludgeoned Their bodies were found by hunters about 10 miles east of Auburn Scott said Miss Best was wearing only stockings and mocassinsand herskirt was wrapped around her neck.
