Mitchell says teen voting rule unfair
Attorney General John Mitchell argued that letting newly franchised students vote where they attend college would be unfair to other voters, notably service members. The Democratic National Committee accused him of political maneuvering to aid Nixon’s 1972 re election. He warned residency rules could be discriminatory against those away from home.

Alameda County approves welfare rule for women workers
Alameda County supervisors adopted new welfare regulations directing the department to refer women applicants for county aid to farm and orchard labor. The action aimed to comply with an injunction from Judge Lewis Lercara, who ordered more women moved to field work until reasonable rules were set. The board lowered the referral age to 40, adjusted bus departure times, and arranged police coverage for pickup sites. Transportation to the stop is provided if no other means exists, and emergency assistance is promised if no work is available. Welfare Director Hrayr Terzian was cited for contempt after staff disputes over returning names of employable single women to the welfare rolls.
