Kennedy, Carter rift widens
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The windfall
profits tax is shaping up as the latest
— and possibly most bitter — issue
to split President Carter and his po
tential rival for the presidential
nomination, Sen. Edward Kennedy.
Kennedy has broken with Carter
before, over national health insur
ance and budget priorities, but the
. current dispute over oil price decon
trol and how to tax the oil companies’
profits left a visibly angry Carter and
a stone-faced Kennedy trading
charges and counter-charges
Monday.
In a speech to the American Soci
ety of Newspaper Editors in New
York, Kennedy accused the adminis
tration of giving in to “the overbear
ing power of the oil lobby.”
“First, it has intimidated the ad
ministration into throwing in the
towel without even entering the ring
on oil price decontrol,” Kennedy
said.
“And second, it has also intimi
dated the administration into sub
mitting a token windfall tax that is no
more than a transparent fig leaf over
the vast profits the industry will
reap.”
When a reporter related Ken
nedy’s statement to Carter at his
televised and broadcast news con
ference, the president looked angry
and said, “That’s just a lot of
baloney.”
“Everybody knows that decontrol
is mandated in the present law,”
Carter said, referring to the clause in

last year’s energy act requiring an
end to price controls in September
1981. Carter’s phaseout accelerates
the process and brings higher prices
a bit faster.
As for the windfall profits tax. Car
ter said, “I’m always amenable to
iBaas
proposals made by Senator Kennedy
to make the laws fairer or more strin
gent.”
Kennedy said, however, he will
challenge Carter on issues which
they disagree on and support him
when they agree.
