Black Militants Withdraw Unitarian Reparation Claim
A militant black group spokesman told the Unitarian Universalist Association General Assembly in Boston that its demand for 6.5 million dollars in reparations had been withdrawn. The action followed the assembly's approval of a 250 thousand dollar budget for the Black Affairs Council and the denial of the Black and White Action group's 30 thousand dollar request. The assembly also defeated a move requiring audits for all groups, though a council spokesman offered to submit an audit by an independent Boston accountant. The council noted a state of Indiana filing requirement and the assembly continues through Sunday with joint sessions with the International Association of Religious Freedom.

Hart Proposes Tax Shelters For Workingman
Senator Philip A. Hart of Michigan proposes a revenue reform bill creating a tax shelter for low and middle income families. It would deliver an estimated 6.7 billion dollar tax break to these households while raising 17 billion by closing loopholes favoring the wealthy. The plan caps four member family savings at 165 dollars for 10 thousand income, 263 for 12 thousand, and 345 for 15 thousand, with a 42 percent cut for those earning 5 thousand. It would end tax preferences and capital gains, limit mineral depletion deductions to property cost, repeal the 7 percent investment tax credit and end accelerated depreciation on real estate except for low or moderate income housing.
