The spokesman for the National Automobile Dealers Association says most dealers are honest and objects to being labeled thieves and cheats amid a Senate antitrust subcommittee inquiry into auto repair costs.

Rockefeller foes plan to shift welfare costs nationwide
Gov Rockefeller proposed the federal government take over welfare payments to reduce state costs, citing wide disparities in aid levels across states. Reagan opposed the plan, warning against sweeping national changes, while Bliss outlined campaign work for 1970. Rockefeller urged regional minimum welfare standards and universal health insurance as a first line of defense with publicly financed programs as a second line.
