April 18,1974 Page 4 Nader

Continued from p. 1 Nader drew a picture of government and oil companies working together against the interests of the consumer. Washington, he says, serves as a “ megaphone” and “rationalizer” for the oil companies. Tax loop­ holes available to these com­ panies are numerous. The greatest fear of the m^jor oil companies, Nader said, was “a glut of oil on the marketplace driving the price down,” which was the rationale behind the

1« ijuvjia wii fnrpinn«vi oil signed by Nixon in 1969. The twlcve-per-cent limit was lifted May 1, 1973 - after the price of domestic oil rose above that of the foreign competitors. Con­ sumers paid 5.40 million for that quota, according to Nader. “Oil producing countries are beginning to be more assertive after being ripped off for forty years.” The alternatives to fossil fuels Nader stressed are solar and geothermal sources.
