Mills Nixon clash flares over Social Security and policy
President Nixon and House Ways and Means Chair Wilbur D. Mills clash over Social Security increases and tax policy. Mills backs a package linking welfare reform and the Social Security boost, while Nixon pressures for faster action and questions the approach. Trade talks with Japan and other items also suffer, fueling speculation Mills may be a 1972 Democratic option.

Enrollment For Farm Crop Programs Ahead Of 1970
Officials report the 1971 signup pace for fed grain and wheat programs is well ahead of 1970, with over 443,000 farms enrolled by March 11. Cotton enrollment lags. Early reports credit the March 1 start and the broader setaside plan for taking excessive crop land out of production, though officials caution against attributing gains to timing alone.

Agriculture objects to Alaska oil pipeline plan
The Agriculture Department joins federal agencies opposing the proposed Alaska North Slope oil pipeline. It calls for a fail safe environmental protection system and standards that far exceed the current plan. FPC and OEP stress oil and gas are needed for national security and low pollution energy, while considering route options. Interior must issue a final environmental impact statement before permits. Morton says decision will take months.

Executives See Improvement in the Economy
New York AP reports a cautiously optimistic view from business and financial leaders at the Institutional Investors Conference. Housing industry optimism dominates, with Jerome P. Kenney predicting 1971 as a peak year for housing starts at 1.75 million and mobile home sales at 425,000, while others urge tax relief to ignite spending and investment. Charles F. Hubert III notes pervasive pessimism among business but believes it is overstated, and Werner C. Brown stays cautiously optimistic about modest growth. Donald F. Kehler expects a flat to moderately rising economy with gains mainly in the nation.
