House deadlocks over Cambodia aid and Mansfield talks
A House Foreign Affairs subcommittee deadlocked on recommending 83.1 million dollars in aid for Cambodia and set a meeting for Wednesday. Senator Henry M. Jackson urged President Ford to send Senate Leader Mike Mansfield to meet Norodom Sihanouk in China to seek a new Cambodian government. Mansfield, while open to such a trip, said it should be led by the president. The House caucus vote indicates 189 Democrats oppose military aid to South Vietnam and Cambodia this year, effectively stalling House approval. The State Department pressed for urgent aid, as committees planned further action for next week and a rescheduled Senate meeting.

He warned labor wage demands could blunt effects but said leaders face pressure from members and spouses to seek higher pay. He urged delaying repeal fights on oil depletion allowances to avoid delaying the stimulative tax cut.
