Senate endorses detente amid strong defense pledges
The Senate approved an 86 to 7 resolution backing detente, though with qualifiers on military strength and Cuban troop withdrawal. Senator Cranston defended the measure as unified in peace and anti repression while Senator Stevenson urged caution as Adlai Stevenson labeled it unintelligible. Amendments pressed by Senator Allen added conditions on future Soviet deals and Cuban troop withdrawal. Meanwhile IRS scrutiny targets wealthy taxpayers with possible audits, as Long criticizes official statistics and notes high wartime tax rates distort income figures.
