Republican Platform Holds Moderate Course
The platform advocates measures to ease riots with state and local control, supports tax credits for corporations in city problems, and vows welfare reform while avoiding a guaranteed income. It condemns Johnson’s Vietnam policy, calls for stronger local forces, a policy of peace without surrender, farm program reforms, automatic Social Security increases, and freer trade. It also favors aid to Israel, opposes UN recognition of Communist China, Electoral College reform, and tax credits for higher education.
