Stock Market Drops Amid Recession and Gold Sale Plans
New York trading opened with a sharp market slide as recession fears and a coal strike clouded sentiment. The noon Dow fell 9.62 to 593.40, with losers outnumbering gainers 9 to 2 as higher short term rates undercut the market’s recent upturn. Central Soya led volume on the Big Board while gold issues slumped after Treasury Secretary Simon announced plans to sell two million ounces of gold on January 6, just after private American gold ownership becomes legal.

Ford urges budget cuts and arms accord impact issues
President Ford calls Congress to trim the FY 1975 budget by 4.6 billion while preserving 2.6 billion for public service jobs to offset unemployment as inflation looms. He warns of higher military costs next year to counter inflation, but argues the new arms agreement will yield long term savings, noting no ceiling on MIRVs or throwweight may raise costs if the U S matches Soviet gains.

Vets Bill Vote On Veto Stated In House Today
Washington AP The House plans to vote on overriding President Ford's veto of a veterans school benefits bill. It would raise monthly stipends to 366 dollars with wife and child, extend undergraduate benefits to 48 months, and create a 600 dollar annual loan fund. Senate action would follow if the House acts. Ford argued the measure is inflationary and extends subsidies too far, while supporters say veterans face financial pressure needing longer schooling. House Republicans, led by John Rhodes, are split but expect to back the White House on most issues, with veterans benefits unlikely to pass.

Pioneer 11 heads for Saturn after Jupiter flyby
Pioneer 11 sustained two minor micrometeorite hits though scientists expected five and warned more could have damaged instruments. Wolfe noted Jupiter’s magnetic field was twice Earth’s. The craft escaped Jupiter’s radiation belt, used Jupiter’s gravity as a slingshot toward Saturn, 3 billion miles from Earth, 100 million miles above Earth’s orbital plane, aiming to rendezvous in September 1979 and reveal Saturn’s mysteries.
