A population analysis by Jamestown city planner A Russell Tryon projects a continued decline to 1980 and 1990 before a rebound around the year 2000. The study tracks from a 1940 census of 41 818 to under 40 000 in 1970 and under 38 000 in 1980 with 36 785 by 1990.

Washington AP reports that Congress rejected President Johnson's home rule for the District of Columbia, voting 283 to 117 for a substitute plan. The measure calls for a referendum by residents and a charter commission to study self government while Congress retains control. Supporters chose the substitute offered by Rep. B. F. Sisk, D Calif, over nothing. The Senate already passed the administration bill for direct election of a mayor and city council next year. Senator Alan Bible notes the shift in the District governance debate.
The committee and lawmakers voiced pessimism about reconciling the Sisk and Senate bills. House Democratic Leader Carl Albert predicted no bill this year and a slim chance next year while Rep. Charles Mathias urged a Senate House conference. A bipartisan compromise was rejected, marking a rare affirmative vote on home rule in 70 years.
