Senate OKs pension reform bill to protect retirement benefits
The Senate passed a private pension plan reform bill 93 to 0 with House action anticipated. It would set minimum standards, require vesting after five years and full vesting after 15, mandate full funding, and create a government program to insure benefits if plans fail. Critics warned reforms may raise costs and deter pension offerings.

White House and the Watergate special prosecutor must file responses on a proposed remedy allowing Archibald Cox to privately listen to presidential tapes for grand jury needs. Nixon lawyers resist broader disclosure, stressing constitutional prerogatives, while Cox staff indicated willingness to follow the court’s approach.
