The Sheboygan Press from Sheboygan, Wisconsin (2024)

Ohitu aries 8 Sheboygan Press, Tuesday, February 26, 1974 Gas' Crisis Perils Ramada Inn Plans diary of Continental Western Corp. The firm took out an option from the city for the five-acre site after the Common Council rezoned the tract and the option runs through next month. But, The Press learned today, a feasability study by a nationally-recognized certified public accounting firm, Hor-wath and Horwath, created problems in finding financing. Horwath and Horwath said the Ramada Inn project was feasable but the report noted that feasability did not take into consideration the potential effects of the energy crisis. That clause, observers say, has frightened off potential national financing and a representative of Continental Western is reportedly planning on visiting Sheboygan next week in hopes of drumming up local money for the project.

"Over 91 Yean Of Conscientious Service" Sheboygan's hopes for a new, 143-unit, $2.8 million Ramada Inn apparently are dangling on the thread of hope for local financing for the project. The proposed motel, to be located at the northeast corner of County Trunks PP and A in the city's industrial park, just off Highway 141, was to be built this spring and summer by Hotel Management Omaha, a subsi- From Page 1 President documents surrendered to Watergate special prosecutor Leon Jaworski, Nixon said that would depend on arrangements to protect their confidentiality and on whether they could be given to the committee without jeopardizing the rights of criminal defendants or interfering with the prosecution in anticipated Watergate-related trials.

Preparing Brief Asked for his own defini-I ion of an impeachable offense, Nixon said St. Clair is preparing a brief for the Judiciary Committee arguing that "a criminal offense on the part of the president is the requirement for the impeachment of the president." The committee staff last week released a study that concluded a president could be impeached for abuse of trust without actually having committed a statutory crime. A questioner asked if Nixon might consider resigning should it become evident that the Republican Party was going to suffer a disastrous defeat in the November elec-tionsm "No," he replied in a quiet voice. "I want my party to succeed, but more important I want the presidency to survive we have a lot of work left to do, more than three years left to do it in, and I am going to stay here until I get it done." Optimistic View Nixon took an optimistic view of GOP chances when asked what advice he would give the party's candidates in light of the surprise Democratic win in Vice President Gerald R. Ford's old House district.

"What will affect the election in this year, 1974 is what always affects elections -peace and prosperity," Nixon said. Saying "we are doing well" on the peace front and that "this economy is going to be moving up later this year," Nixon declared: "I think, therefore, it will be a good year for those candidates who stand for the administration." The President also was asked to say whether he thought former Vice President Spiro T. Agnew had brought dishonor on his office, the administration and the country. "It would be very easy for me to jump on the vice president when he is down," he said. "I can only say that in his period of service that he rendered dedicated service in all of the assignments I gave him." From Page 1 Energy would give the administration broad powers, would be vetoed because he said it only manages the shortage rather than deal with the real problem of increasing supplies.

A price rollback would be "immediately popular," he said, but would eventually increase the gasoline lines and lead to rationing. Nixon urged Congress to approve legislation to tax windfall profits of oil companies, deregulate natural gas prices, and allow amendments to environmental laws permitting greater use of coal as a fuel Thank You We wish to thank our relatives, friends and neighbors, for their many octs of kindness during our recent bereavement, the loss of our husband and father, Vincent Dunn.

The dealers had been seeking a boost of five cents a gallon and the right to give preferential treatment to regular customers. -In Chicago, the American Hospital Association said the gasoline shortage, particularly in the Eastern states, is impairing hospital work. The association said medical personnel are being delayed or kept from work because they are forced to wait in long lines at service stations. The association said the gasoline shortage contributed directly to two deaths in New Jersey.

An accident victim died when the ambulance taking him to a hospital ran out of gas, and a second person died when a neurosurgeon en route to perform emergency surgery ran out of gas. Nixon News Conference At-A-Glance WASHINGTON (AP) -Here, at a glance, are President Nixon's comments on major topics at his news conference Monday night: OIL SHORTAGES: The President said the nation has passed through the time of heating-oil shortages and there now is a "much better than even chance" that gasoline rationing will not be needed. He predicted that gasoline lines would go down during the spring and summer and that gasoline prices would not drop until more fuel enters the country. INFLATION: Nixon said his administration would bring inflation under control this year and that the real answer is "to get the supplies up that would get the prices down." ECONOMY: The President said the nation is "going through a downturn in the economy at this point, but not a recession." He said prospects for the future were good. WATERGATE: Nixon disclosed that he rejected a request by Special Prosecutor Leon Jaworski that he testify before a grand jury.

But he said he was willing to answer written or verbal questions from the prosecutor in private. FUTURE: Nixon said he did not expect to be impeached and said he would not resign because the presidency should not "be hostage to what happens to the popularity of a president." 2 Snowmobilcrs Fined In Court A 20-year-old Sheboygan youth forfeited a $34 bond Monday in County Court Branch 2 on a charge that he operated a snowmobile without display registration numbers.
