Teamsters chief blasts McGovern proposals in bid to win labor vote
Frank Fitzsimmons of the 2 million member Teamsters Union rejected McGovern welfare tax and amnesty plans as nonsense. Clark MacGregor predicted a 93 to 3 Senate rejection while Nixon aides push a cautious campaign. McGovern won some union endorsements despite AFL CIO's split stance and Meany's rift with the candidate.

British to end internment without trial in Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland Secretary William Whitelaw will announce the abolition of internment without trial after talks with SDLP leaders at Stormont Castle in Belfast. The move follows days of violence in Belfast and Londonderry, with rioting, shootings, and vandalism reported, while authorities indicate a de facto amnesty for those turning in arms.

Washington Window Plan dies as Congress blocks big agency
President Nixon's plan to form a Department of Community Development stalls in Congress. The Senate shows little interest, and the House Rules Committee blocks floor action after seven chairmen oppose. The proposal would have merged agencies including OEO and transit programs, drawing opposition from farm, transportation, and other interests. The fate suggests reorganization efforts depend on presidents and scholars. The report notes a separate aid package to Bangladesh valued at $19.2 million to feed about 2.7 million people for four months.
