"a very unfair charge" against
members of the Senate and

porter of the bill, suggested Sem
ator Pastore had meant to say
lobbyists may be present in the
Senate gallery but not in the
Senate chamber itself. He added
he believes lobbyists for pipeline
companies opposing the bill have
been seen in the gallery.
The main argument against
the legislation has been that 1t
would raise the price for natural
gas, thus hurting household
consumers, Proponents deny
this.
Senator Daniel said the bill
had been carefully drafted and
revised by members of Congress
to protect consumers from I'M
warranted price rises. The bill
is good for the consumer. he
contended, and ''in the best in
