hreaking up the vertical
integration in the oil industry isme-
sential. Conservation on an indiv-

answer. Criticises Carter forsnot
putting enough emphasis on devel-

energy is a last resort.

"We do want detente hut outlview
of detente does not include nes-
colonialistic activity in Africa.
"We need SALT to reduce the risk
of war. We must have aclear

"Detente is very disappointing.
It has heroine a one way street.
It meansore to the Russians

lived up to itshalf of detente hut
the Soviet Union hasn't.
