Welfare Bill in Senate Faces Hearings on Plans
Senate hearings before Sen. George McGovern on nutrition and hunger relief will review Democratic welfare proposals aimed at lifting family income and ensuring adequate diets. Witnesses include Rev. Jesse Jackson and New York Mayor John Lindsay as McGovern promotes a guaranteed minimum for children and broader anti poverty measures. The Nixon plan, tied to food stamps and a $1600 family income floor, invites comparison as lawmakers weigh costs and scope.

Vietnamese exhibit builds 40 foot statue to honor unity of people and army
A granite statue in an outdoor garden memorializes unity between civilians and the People's Army in anti American warfare. The exhibit features a 40 foot high statue built in a month by student volunteers, with elaborate maps of air battles over Hanoi on May 19 and Oct 26 in 1967, and an Aug 5, 1965 raid on Hon Gai. Models of jet interceptors and missiles simulate the battles, while a narrator describes events and credit is given to warning networks and defense forces. The display includes a rack of reportedly captured U.S. equipment, a Bible page, a photo of a pilot named Jim Kabler, and a list of prisoners.
