The piece notes Congress failed to cut federal civilian employment as hoped under the Revenue and Expenditure Control Act of 1968. Only 130,000 of 3 million were slated to go away over two years, about 5,400 monthly, while new hires add 15,000. Output argues excluded bureaus offset reductions, keeping taxes higher by 10 percent.
Health writer Virginia Payette previews an American Cancer Society study of 800 adults linking sleeping more than nine hours with higher risks of heart attack and stroke. Epidemiologist Ed Hammond notes sleep may reflect, not cause, health issues and cautions against overinterpretation.
Washington faces a confrontation over decades of U S backed Peruvian military support. The regime toppled Prado with Sherman tanks and now negotiates with Soviet Peru trade, provoking anti American sentiment as Peru presses claims on oil wealth and sugar quotas.
Washington columnist Don MacLean argues that senior politicians do not write their own columns and that aides craft them.

Bruce Biossat argues for a federal commission to supervise credit bureaus and credit-extending agencies. He warns these private entities wield government-like power over housing loans, cars, and general credit, and cites frequent errors in credit records.
