Meat price control talk draws White House support and cattleman plans
President Nixon faces calls from survey and prospect groups to impose price controls on meat. He favors voluntary measures and studies to curb rising costs, including encouraging cattlemen to slaughter more cows and examining commodity speculation.

Supreme Court limits education funding challenge in Texas case
The Supreme Court, in a 5 to 4 decision, overturned a lower court ruling on using property taxes to fund public schools in Texas. Justice Powell wrote the majority, stating education is not an explicit or implicit constitutional right and that funding decisions should rest with state and local lawmakers, not the judiciary. Justice Marshall dissented, arguing the ruling retreats from equality of educational opportunity.

Hart on Development Myths and Bauer Critique of Aid
Jeffrey Hart revisits the belief that foreign aid is a right and beneficial. He cites P T Bauer of the London School of Economics who argues aid rests on myths, rebuts the vicious circle claim, notes wide variation in the Third World, and says progress comes with or without aid if development foundations exist. Bauer warns aid can cause bureaucratic waste and dependency and harm balance of payments.
