Wilson Brings Soviet Views on Peace Talks
London reports Prime Minister Harold Wilson will tell President Johnson the Kremlin will not help bring Hanoi to the peace table.

Johnson Wins Assurance On Two Tax Bills Action
President Johnson secured assurances from House tax writer Wilbur Mills for action on two tax bills, but likely not the 10 percent income tax surcharge. Mills scheduled a Ways and Means meeting to approve extending the 10 percent telephone and 7 percent auto excise taxes, set to fall to 1 and 2 percent if not renewed by April 1. He indicated Easter passage is possible for a travel tax levy while remaining skeptical about the surcharge.
