Interestingly, DST itself had been standardized by the Uniform Time Act of 1966 less than a decade before that!
IMHO seems like permanent standard time would have been the more logical route (apparently it could have been done at the state level under current federal laws), but "more logical" doesn't always mean "easier to accomplish."
