Senator William Proxmire told reporters at Wichita State University that farmers face the top economic injustice and called for 100 percent parity within three to four years though he warned it is unlikely in one year. He criticized Carter administration arms sales as outrageous and excessive, noting U S sales in five years exceed those of all other nations combined. A Kansas libel suit involving Dante G Scarpelli went to a jury after a 214 week trial with five black defendants accused of discrimination and seeking damages.
