At the White House, Senate Republican Leader Hugh Scott told reporters following a two hour meeting with Nixon and Kissinger that we are hopeful the embargo will be lifted against Arab oil shipments to the Lmted States He did not detail the basis for his optimism. Sen John G. Tower, , shared Scotts feelings, but said he had to speak cautiously. "I think theres reason to be hopeful, he told a reporter If we were to have all the gasoline they say weTe going to have, we would have it flowing in the streets," remarked Susan White, an aide in the state energy office. Made a Mistake Askco about the allocation, FEO officials conceded they made a mistake Related Stories, Pages 6, 7 x They quickly determined that Connecticut should get only 107 million not 128 million as gallons in March originally announced. To DLseoss Possibility The Arab oil ministers were expected to discuss the possibility of lifting the embargo during a meeting either Sunday m Cairo or Wednesday in Tripoli. An FEO spokesman said the error was caused by inflated figures supplied by state officials on Connecticuts gas But Rep Clarence Brown, who also attended the meeting, said Kissinger declined to predict when the embargo would be lifted. He said Kissinger indicated he thought the boycott would be lifted when it is to the advantage of the Arabs to lift ' it. He sa,d we must go ahead with development of our own energy resources without regard to what the Arabs do about the boycott and that quick develop ment of our resources might encourage the Arabs to lift the boycott, Brown if ii V & . t" .Y- i - 4ft y i f- -. f 4 r( hi a 4. 4- - V,v vt r 7V 'V X f r 1 V' added ) Inside The Tribune I " 5 MV' V, - $ ft "tjr i ,V f li- X' Aj'.ociated Press Wirpotioto No congressional candidate be allowed to accept more than $3, M0 from an individual donor and that no presidential candidate be allowed to accept more than $15,000 from a single donor in Kind Contributions ? h a w Ji Vi ' I i atu.ked the President's No candidate be allowed to have more than one political committee, thus bamng a proliferation of committees that are now used to circumvent campaign finance laws 'M Watch Quietly But when the miners arrived at the Capitol they separated into groups and quetly watched the Senate and House Let yourself be seen, be from galleries orderly, dont make no noise, no smart remarks Vie dont want to defeat our purpose, one miner warned Gov Arch A.
