Iceland Votes to Retain U S Troops at Keflavik Base
In Reykjavik three defecting coalition members from Premier Olafur Jo hanssonesson's Progressive party join opposition to expelling U S forces. The move shifts parliamentary support toward keeping the 3700 American troops, defusing the leftist bid to close NATO’s Keflavik base ahead of 1975 elections. Secretary Rogers plans talks en route to NATO ministers in Brussels.

Nixon China Trip Ends Just Before New Hampshire Primary
President Nixon will return from China on February 28, just days before New Hampshire voters cast the 1972 primary ballots on March 7. Republican aides expect Nixon to be an avowed candidate for a second term with his name on the ballot and a pledged slate of convention delegates. The White House announced the trip schedule as Henry Kissinger cited timing as essential for a successful outcome. Nixon faces a challenge from Rep. Paul N. McCloskey with a campaign operation led by Lane Dwinell to secure a New Hampshire landslide and end the insurgency on opening day. The February 6 filing deadline governs entering Nixon’s name with a pledged slate on the ballot.

House Offers Veto-Proof Campaign Reform Package
The House backed a reform package with spending limits and reporting ideas similar to Senate provisions, hailed as bipartisan victory by the National Committee for an Effective Congress. Differences remain as the House and Senate must reconcile before sending to the White House. The House adopted a $4.4 million ceiling for radio TV ads per candidate next year and kept the existing equal time law, while rejecting a six member bipartisan elections commission and independent oversight in favor of current filing practices.
