Senate Moves Toward Compromise on Reorganization Measures
In Montpelier Vermont UPI reports two key government reorganization bills face a second Senate test as the House prepares to duel over a 1969 sales tax exemption for heating fuels. Amendments target eight GOP and eight minority coalition votes to pass the package creating an eight member cabinet and widening veto rules. Gov Davis gains Buckley support by delaying effect to Jan 1 1971 while Hancock seeks 30 signatures to salvage his plan to expand fuel rebate payments. Republican leadership acknowledges Hancock may win House approval with votes from maverick Republicans and 49 Democrats.
