Proxmire accuses Air Force of juggling C5A costs
Sen. William Proxmire accuses the Air Force of manipulating cost figures to mask the C5A giant cargo plane overrun. He cites a briefing showing reallocated prices between runs A and B to hide excess profits and raise the total to 5.2 billion dollars, about 2 billion more than 1965 estimates. Air Force officials defend the larger figure, noting space parts and a bigger airframe than the prior 3.1 billion estimate.

Fortas Admits Error Over Wolfson Payment Disclosure
Washington former Supreme Court Justice Abe Fortas tells the Washington Post he erred by not promptly disclosing dealings with imprisoned financier Louis E. Wolfson. He resigned nine days earlier after Life magazine revealed a $20,000 fee from Wolfson’s foundation and said returning the money did not prove guilt. Fortas described the fallout as a sudden impact, not a personal malice.
