Senate head says
rationed gas likely
WASHINGTON (AP) Assistant Senate Democratic leader
Robert C. Byrd predicted yesterday that the next Congress
will quickly pass standby gasoline rationing and wage 'and
price control authority.
At a news conference, the West Virginian also said President
Ford has failed to learn the lessons of Watergate and called on
him to withdraw his controversial nomination of Andrew E.
Gibson to head the Federal Energy Administration.
Byrd also said that Ford's proposed five per cent across-the
board surtax "doesn't stand a chance" in Congress. but he said
a t 'majority of the House and Senate might be persuaded to im
pose a surtax on persons earning more than $25,000 or $30,000
annually.
The 94th Congi - ess likely will pass some kind , of standby
authority for wage and price controls even though such a
system is actively opposed by organized labor, Byrd said.
He said, however, that he does not believe Congress should
make either gasoline rationing or wage-price controls man
datory because the House and Senate are in no position to ad
minister those programs.
That kind ,- of leadership can only be provided by the
President, he said.
Byrd said that
. three nominations by Ford prove he has not
'oarned the lessons of Watergate.
He referred to the appointment of Gen. Alexander M. Haig to
be commander of North Atlantic- Treaty Organization forces,
the nomination of former White House aide Peter Flanigan to
be ambassador to Spain and Gibson's nomination,
