Subsidy Cutback Sought Shift In Income
The Nixon administration proposes a tight budget to reduce farm subsidies and shift income support away from government aid toward market means. It plans about $100 million in Rural Development Act funding while cutting farm payments for wheat cotton and feed grains to about $2.5 billion next year. Senate hearings are set to examine cuts to farm programs amid controversy over REAP and REAL shifts from federal to private measures.

Fate Of 56 Known POWs Still Puzzle
Washington AP reports Defense Department spokesman Jerry Friedheim said 56 Americans were known to be alive in prisoner camps but not listed on either side’s captures lists. He noted 54 men previously listed as POWs are not on the official lists and 1,269 Americans remain missing in Southeast Asia, including 300+ in Laos. Friedheim sought clarification through Paris channels and the four power joint military commission guiding the ceasefire, while stressing no link between Laos bombing and POW accounting. Senator Percy urged full disclosure of all prisoners and missing men.
