Washington - Secretary of State Cyrus Vance said
Wednesday President Carter will push for a freeze
on oil prices during his planned nine-nation world
trip, including visits to four key members of the
Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries oil
cartel. "I think it would be catastrophic if there
should be an increase at this point in energy prices,
Vance told a news conference. "I do not think that
economically it is justified in any way and the re
sults could be that this would set us back quite
substantially because of the possibility of increased
inflation and increased unemployment which could
very well follow if there were to be an increase of
prices. We will be able to discuss on this trip mat
ters relating to the energy problem and the need
for a freeze on energy prices," Vance added. Car
ter's planned trip would take him to Venezuela
Brazil, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, India, Iran, France,
Poland and Belgium between November 22nd and
December 2nd. A State Department spokesman
said a decision to postpone or proceed with the trip
