In Hue, 300 students demonstrated for a third day, calling for a student’s release and opposing the American presence and the Oct 3 election.

Drive Began To Win First Economy Test
Washington AP House Republicans opened a bid to defeat President Nixon's emergency economic package by vetoing the six month deferral of a $1.3 billion federal pay raise. GOP Leader Gerald Ford urged a caucus to back a deferral rejection as Waldie introduced a veto resolution arguing the plan singles out federal workers for sacrifice. The move accompanies Nixon’s broader $5 billion spending cut and a 90 day wage freeze.
