Citizen group
may plan rates
Establishment of a citizen s
committee to study College Sta
tion’s utility rate structure is on the
agenda for consideration at the 7
p.m. Thursday council meeting.
The idea of a citizen’s committee
was discussed at an earlier council
meeting. If established, the com
mittee’s findings would proposedly
be used to help draft a new contract
for College Station utilities.
Councilmen are also to consider
changing the park dedication clause
of the subdivision ordinance.
Also on the agenda for considera
tion is an ordinance establishing
parking zones at North Gate to help
control traffic conditions in the area.
The proposed ordinance would
eliminate parking on the south side
of Church Street. The time-limit for
parking in some areas of North Gate
would also be changed.
A discussion of the ambulance
statement of concern is on the
agenda. The statement is a compila
tion of letters from concerned resi
dents concerned about the quality
of ambulance service here.

house is crowded, with no place for
expansion.
Commissioner Randy Sims said
it would be at least two years be
fore the annex could be completed
and it would probably contain fa
cilities for the tax office, the county
clerk, the justices of the peace and a
JP clerk.
Cooley said the commissioners
are looking at next year’s fed
eral revenue-sharing funds to get
the expansion underway.
Commissioner Walter Wilcox
said, “I don’t think we’ll have to
have a tax increase because of the
annex.”
Commissioners admitted they
have already heard two proposals
on property in College Station. One
of the proposals concerns an exist

US oil
to fuel
Israel
By DAVID LANCASHIRE
Associated Press Writer
TEL AVIV — While the rest of
the world tries to conserve oil
against an energy crisis, Israel re
luctantly is preparing to sacrifice
almost its entire oil production and
depend on U.S. guarantees for its
fuel needs.
Under the latest Israeli-Egyptian
pact being negotiated by Secretary
of State Henry A. Kissinger, Israel
is to surrender the Abu Rudeis oil
fields on the Gulf of Suez, captured
from Egypt in the 1967 Middle East
Israeli officials have said Ameri
can assurances of future oil supplies
will be included in a separate accord
between Jerusalem and
Washington.
Although Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin calls Abu Rudeis “the most
important industry in Israel,” he has
several times said that he would
agree to give it back to Egypt in
order to secure a pact as move to
ward eventual peace. In exchange,
Kissinger has offered American
guarantees that Israel will get all the
oil it needs from other unspecified
sources.
For the Israeli military, with its
fuel-hungry jets and tanks, and for
Israeli motorists who already pay
$1.76 a gallon for gasoline, it’s more
a matter of money than oil since
very little liquid from Abu Rudeis, if
any, goes into Israeli fuel tanks.
Israeli authorities say the oil is
“unsuitable” for local consumption,
for classified reasons, so it is ex
ported to secret des 6 nations and
the revenues spent on more suitable
oil, mainly from Iran.
Despite the rich oilfields of its
neighbor, Israel has almost no fuel
resources of its own. Except for a
few meager wells on Israeli territ
ory, the only place where the crude
bubbles up is at Abu Rudeis, 240
miles from Tel Aviv.
Since the 1967 conflict, the 72 de
sert wells and offshore rigs of the
30-mile-long complex, turning out
31.5 million barrels a year, have
produced the equivalent of 60 per
cent of Israel’s fuel needs.
With Abu Rudeis reverting to the
Egyptians, officials are silent on
exactly how Washington can
guarantee future oil for Israel when
the United States has trouble
guaranteeing its own fuel supplies.
.“But the United States can make
sure we have oil, either from our
present source or new ones, or even
from America’s own resources if
necessary,” says one Israeli gov
ernment aide. At least some of the
cost would be paid by the United
States.
Egypt will get a lesser prize than
she lost. Abu Rudeis Manager
Michael Kisch says about half of the
oilfield’s capacity has been
exhausted and pumping out the re
maining 50 per cent “will be difficult
work.”
undeveloped land.
“There’s no question in our
minds the people of College Station
want the annex,” said Cooley. He
added that the people of south
Bryan would also benefit from the
