Vote Urged to Oust Speaker McCormack by Waldie
Rep. Jerome Waldie of California filed formal notice urging a vote of no confidence in House Speaker John W. McCormack at a February 18 party caucus. Waldie said many members feel the leadership is not responsive to 1970s problems, though few expect leadership change. He hopes the move prompts reflection and action while distancing his challenge from a related federal court case involving McCormack aide Martin Sweig and associate Nathad Velashen.

Democrats Seek Guarantee Of $3600 Income Minimum
The Democrats propose a federal guaranteed poverty level income of 3600 dollars per year for a family of four, replacing the Nixon plan. The measure would be fully funded by the federal government over three years, with phased wage provisions and job safeguards for beneficiaries, and would apply to all individuals below the poverty line rather than only families with children.
