Meanwhile sen. Russell b. Long. A la whose finance committee rejected presi Dent Carter s tax on crude Oil on monday stepped up efforts to find an Oil pricing Compromise suitable to the administration the Oil Industry and consumer groups. Under the natural Gas proposal Federal Price controls would be lifted from newly produced Gas but there would be a ceiling for two years to limit Price increases to Consumers. The proposed lid would be equal to the Price of an equivalent amount of Home heating was offered by Sens. Lloyd Bentsen. D-tex., and James b. Pearson. In Kan who have been leading the Senate Battle for an Industry supported plan to deregulate natural Gas prices. Bentsen called the move a major con cession but administration allies in the Senate vowed to fight it. Carter who wants to continue Federal Price controls on Gas has indicated he would veto any legislation thai lifts them however in several test votes a Majonis of senators has gone on record against the Carter pricing plan. A filibuster led by a few liberals opposed to any relaxation of Gas Price controls has tied up debate since last week despite a thus far futile Effort by Striate leaders to get final action on the Carter Bill already approved by the House would continue Federal controls but lift the Price lid from the current si.46 per thousand cubic feet to $1.75. It would also extend the controls to the now unregulated markets in Texas Louisiana and other Gas producing states. Under the new Bentsen Pearson deregulation proposal newly produced onshore Gas would be deregulated but Price in creases could not go above heating Oil prices for at least two years. Backers said this would result in a Price lid of from $2.48 to$2.50 per 1,000 cubic feet. Offshore Gas would be deregulated Over a five year period. The proposal also would require Indus trial Gas users to absorb most of the higher Cost of deregulation and would give the government the Power to deny the higher prices to Gas producers shown to be deliberately withholding Gas supplies. House speaker Thomas p. O Neill. Meanwhile predicted that Congress will produce Strong Energy legislation this year despite Senate defeat of some of Carter s key a meeting of congressional leaders and the president o Neill. A Mas said press reports have overstated the prob lems of the Energy legislation. Conversion rates Brussels up tuesday s closing rates of the . Dollar to european currencies.
