House Demos blamed for election reform tieup
Common Cause President John Gardner blamed House Democrats for delaying election reform as the Senate passed preliminary campaign limits. He faulted House leadership led by Carl Albert and Wayne Hays, citing a conflict of interest and urging public financing to curb incumbency advantages exposed by a 1972 spending study. The report showed incumbents dominate funding, with average House races costing about 104,000 dollars and challengers far behind.

Nixon presses on tax issue says personal returns none of public
President Nixon declined to reveal whether he paid personal income taxes in 1970 and 1971. Spokesman Gerald Warren said discussions with the President concluded that tax returns are a private matter. The controversy arose after reports that deductions related to California and Florida homes and archives contributions could have yielded no tax on a $200,000 salary. Warren noted returns are confidential for all citizens.
