Congress Keeps Economic Development Agency Alive One More Year
Congress blocks a full abolition of the Economic Development Administration for at least a year with a 430 million dollar budget. Rep. Blatnik says the bare bones funding keeps vital programs running and 500 staffers across 135 districts and seven regional commissions intact while a substitute Rural Development plan is explored. Nixon is expected to sign after overwhelming support.

Price freeze unlikely to check inflation experts say
Economists warn Nixon price freeze and other controls won't curb demand pull inflation. Supply shortages, high consumer spending, and world grain and metal scarcities foretell continued price pressure. Only a slowdown in the US economy may ease costs by 1974, analysts say. The forecast hinges on weaker demand and delayed government action.

The Doomsday Clock or Learning to Live with the Bomb
Washington columnist Tom Tiede argues that Civil Defense drills are ignored and the public treats nuclear threat as a distant issue amid Watergate energy woes and social upheaval. He recalls postwar drills and shelter building as part of a fading memory of atomic risk.
