Energy plan rejected
WASHINGTON - The Senate refused by a 10-vote margin yesterday to accept a compromise energy plan that would raise natural gas prices in exchange for a tax increase.
The 55-45 vote against the proposal indicated that Democrats and Republicans still are far apart in their efforts to write a long-range energy policy. And the defeated questions about whether Congress will be able to avert a severe natural gas shortage forecast for 14 states this winter.
Pearson who has a natural gas bill before the Senate, said he expected more requirements, from the opposition to change it.
"I think today's vote shows that the Senate is willing to use our bill as a vehicle to find a solution to this winter's emergency," Pearson said.
Rejection of the compromise energy plan was called a victory by Sen. James B. Peargon, R-Kan.

Lawmakers made it clear that they didn't want U.S. combat forces used to get the civilian technician out of the area. In Egypt and Israel forces.
WASHINGTON AP) -The House gave overwhelming approval last night to a plan that commits 200 American technicians to monitor the Sinai peace accord.
Martha Keys, D-Kan., voted against the resolution.
Before final approval, the House approved 125 to 71 an amendment by Rep. Bob Eckhardt, D-Tex., which specified that the commitment grant President Ford no authority he didn't already have in using a cell phone to rescue the American technicians.
Eckhardt said "we want to make it clear we have not given blanket authority to go to
Congress should make clear, Eckhardt told the House, that it wasn't writing anything comparable to the Gulf of Tonkin to be committed U.S. forces to the Vietnam War.

An almost identical resolution, including the condition that technicians be pulled out immediately if war erupts, is scheduled for Senate consideration Thursday and Friday.
Morgan said the technicians would be protected by 5,000 U.N. troops in the buffer zone and Rep. Dante B. Fasell, D-Fla, said the would be the first to know of war.
"We think they'i be smart enough to get out of the way," Fasell said.
"But what your prediction is wrong?" asked Rep. Henry B. Gonzales, D-Tex. "Will the United States be obligated to go in and rescue them?"
"There is that small element of gamble, there's no question about it." Fasell said. He agreed that that would be a decision the President would have to make at the time.
