House Passes Public Works Bill Without Dickey Lincoln Funds
The House approved a public works appropriations bill with no funding for the Dickey Lincoln hydroelectric project in Maine. President Nixon had sought 807000 for planning, but the Appropriations Committee removed it over Rep. Boland’s objections. Rep. Kyros said momentum shifts to Senate and conference committee actions. In Hollywood, barbers raise haircut prices as hippie haircuts become costlier, adding one dollar across shops.
