Britain and France delayed a peace talks session to study Thant's report amid renewed efforts to break the deadlock.

Nixon urges letting cities decide fund spending
President Nixon urges Congress to lift most restrictions on the 2 billion annual urban development budget and allow 247 metropolitan areas to spend funds on any locally important projects. The plan would merge categorical grants into revenue sharing, empowering cities to decide allocations for housing, water and sewer facilities, street building, blight clearance, and relocation of displaced residents.
