Reagan Team Pushes Tax Overhaul Plan
President Reagan said an overhaul of the tax code is all but inevitable and vowed changes will ease costs for many. Treasury officials and aides staged a broad push, arguing the plan shifts burden toward higher earners while aiding low income families and non itemizers. A two-earner $45,000 couple could see a $300 rise without children, or a $165 cut with two dependents.

Pentagon expands drug testing to civilian DoD workers
The Defense Department will mandate drug testing for civilian employees in three critical categories including law enforcement and those protecting property or personnel from harm. The directive from Deputy Defense Secretary Taft IV takes effect Saturday amid concerns that drug abuse could disrupt operations. In Towson Maryland authorities moved a 491-pound man with heart problems to an ambulance after police, medics and firefighters removed a room partition and a stair railing. The man, Ralph Ronald Monger 51, died soon after hospital admission following obesity related health issues. Monger reportedly refused treatment and a sister obtained an order to commit him to a hospital.
