There are no facts, except those
found in the longer lines at the
nation’s pumps and a steadily-

But why do those conditions
exist? Is the energy crisis real, or
is it manufactured by the oil
companies in an effort to drive
prices up?
Those questions must be an-

'is expected to decide later this
month whether to indict President
Carter's former banker and budget
director
For close to a year, the grand jury
has tried to untangle the Gordian

The jurors have heard testimony
that he juggled bank accounts, ran
up huge overdrafts and forged the
names of relatives on bank notes
—= We also tipped off the prosecutors
that he had forged a relative’s name
to checks.

In order to solve any problem
we must have at hand a certain

If he is to survive his next
political challenge, he must begin
now with an intensive in-

If the problems are real, we
must know the alternatives and
the pros and cons of each.
Without the information, what
Carter says is no more believable
than what anyone else might say

that we have tried his way and it
hasn’t worked. -_______________________________ .
