It calls for prioritizing productive land in planning and explores rural housing, healthcare, and transportation improvements.

The House faces two competing committee reform proposals. The Hansen plan preserves most chairmen’s jurisdictions while expanding subcommittees and maintaining central panels. The Bolling plan would shift foreign trade, tax, and internal security powers, create new subcommittees, and strengthen the Rules Committee with new floor procedures.

Billy Graham Sees Revival of New Christian Spirit
LAUSANNE Switzerland AP American evangelist Billy Graham said a new spirit of Christian revival and a genuine movement toward Jesus Christ are alive in the United States today. He noted crime and Watergate but said there are more Christians than ever. Graham attended at the Congress for World Evangelization with 2 700 conservatives from 150 countries. He spoke of leadership crises worldwide and urged prayer for leaders and governments. He indicated no retirement but may reduce crusade pace to spend time with semin ary students. The leaders urged broader evangelical cooperation without forming a new agency. He predicted growing Third World Christianity and less Western aid as faith roots deepen independently.
