New Call To Surrender Warns No Escape
The Indian army says it smashed three Pakistani resistance pockets in East Pakistan and broadcast a surrender appeal to Pakistani forces. Indian forces are 22 miles from Dacca as Pakistani troops defend the city, while Pakistan claims all major East Pakistan towns remain under its control and an Indian strike in Kashmir was repulsed. Diplomatic efforts and evacuations from Dacca face delays amid faulting from both sides.

Democrats Fail in Bid to Override Nixon Child Care Veto
Senate Democrats denounced President Nixon's veto of the antipoverty bill but fell seven votes short of the override. The 51 to 36 result left the $6 billion plan dead for this session, while Congress provided $741 million to the Office of Economic Opportunity to carry through June 30. A Senate Finance Committee backed a smaller welfare reform measure with a day care provision, expected to be considered next year.
