...longer-than-usual losing streak. Beset by both bad luck and bad judgment, A.M.C. lost $73.8 million in its past two fiscal years. Its own accountants warned that the company's ability to stay in business depended partly on whether it could repay or extend bank loans that fell due in early 1977. By the time Chairman Roy Chapin Jr. faced stockholders at the annual meeting last week, that crisis had passed. Chapin told the group that A.M.C. could break even in fiscal 1977. But all auto-industry forecasts may have to be revised because of the impact...
...meeting, Chapin announced that a group of U.S. banks had agreed to extend for a year a $72.5 million credit that expired Jan. 31. Also, A.M.C. negotiated the sale of stamping-plant equipment in South Charleston, W. Va., to Volkswagen. Though A.M.C. will now have to buy parts from Volkswagen, the sale will raise much-needed cash. How much, Chapin will not say, but it appears that A.M.C. will be able to redeem some $20.5 million in notes held by the Union Bank of Switzerland that come...

...will be even harder to achieve than SALT. Since 1963, the U.S., the U.S.S.R. and Britain have observed a ban on atmospheric explosions and have detonated all their atomic devices underground-a restraint conspicuously ignored by France and China (India tested its nuclear explosive underground). Carter now wants to extend the 1963 ban to subterranean testing. The U.S. and the Soviet Union have already negotiated two partial underground bans. An accord signed in mid-1974 bars underground nuclear blasts greater than the equivalent of 150 kilotons of TNT -about ten times the force of the Hiroshima bomb. A second agreement...
...without insurance. They also get prescription drugs and emergency hospital care. Medipet founder Paul E. Murray Jr. says some 13,000 pets are put to death in the U.S. each day because their owners cannot afford vet bills. Murray, who started the San Francisco program last October, hopes to extend his coverage nationwide. To ensure the program against ripoffs, pets entitled to benefits get a ten-digit number tattooed...
