Hebert Poised to Chair Armed Services Amid Pentagon Tensions
Louisiana Democrat Felix Edward Hebert appears set to succeed Mendel Rivers as chair of the House Armed Services Committee. A longtime New Orleans congressman and former newspaperman, Hebert led the My Lai inquiry, opposed the volunteer army plan, and has clashed with Pentagon officials while praising a strong military posture. Rep. Philip J. Philbin, now acting chair, lost his reelection bid and will depart Congress, as the panel shifts toward Hebert's leadership style and defense priorities.

Legislation Envisions Tax on Illegal Gambling and Wagers
A proposed bill would levy a $1,000 yearly tax on individuals and employees who handle illegal wagers on sports and numbers rackets, plus a 10 percent tax on profits. Nonpayment could trigger up to $10,000 fines or triple the tax due plus five years in prison. The measure aims to fund federal efforts against organized crime and illegal gambling.
