New Oil Line Expansion Targets North Vietnam Supply
North Vietnamese are building a new pipeline leg from Quang Khe toward the Bankarai Pass to feed truck traffic through Laos.

Nixon Family Aid Plan Revived By Edmond LeBreton
Nixon administration seeks to reform welfare with a federal takeover and a $2400 income guarantee for a family of four. The plan, revived by the House Ways and Means Committee, would raise Social Security taxes to fund expanded benefits and target large states with protections against rising expenditures. The measure aims for House action early next month, with full implementation in 1973 and a potential $6 billion boost for pensioners and welfare recipients.
