Nixon Prods Congress as Vietnam War Dominates Week
The Nixon administration pushed for a one year extension of the surtax while seeking to keep excise taxes steady amid a difficult economic scene. In Vietnam, ground fighting continued after Tet with 120 VC killed near the DMZ and 2000 ARVN casualties in the south as US casualties fell. A special draft study panel was formed as Nixon pledged steps toward an all volunteer force once Vietnam costs drop. Eisenhower died aged 78 after a long heart disease battle with Nixon praising him as a world figure and the most admired citizen.
