First West Point Man Discharged As Objector
Cornelius McNeil Cooper Jr., a 1969 West Point graduate, is the first Army officer to receive an honorable discharge on conscientious objection grounds. The ACLU said the process moved quickly, with final discharge after 444 months since his Ft. Bragg filing. Cooper, from Foster City, Calif., trained as Ranger and paratrooper but saw no combat and stated his objection grew from experiences as a Black West Pointer amid national turmoil. He stated that killing a brother would harm his humanity and that he cannot participate in war in any form.

Lifetime Hunting License Proposed
JEFFERSON CITY AP The Missouri House tabled a proposed constitutional amendment to allow sale of lifetime hunting and fishing licenses for Missourians with costs set at 100 dollars for a lifetime license and 150 dollars for a combined hunting and fishing license. The panel also examined a tax sharing plan linked to a sales tax rise and a gas tax increase tied to a 475 million road bond proposal, with action deferred on both. The Senate approved a 7 cent gasolino tax, not tied to bond plans, and a coal reclamation bill for strip mined land. Other measures pave county courts to enter drainage district lands, allow library districts to invest idle funds, and enable school boards to pay part of employee insurance costs with tax implications. A residency and absentee voting provision for former Missourians was also advanced.

January industrial output rises but remains sluggish
Industrial production edged up seven tenths of one percent in January, restrained by last fall’s General Motors strike. Excluding a 16 percent auto surge, overall factory output stayed weak with declines in televisions, appliances, and defense equipment. Officials hailed auto rebound and steel gains, while the Nixon administration aims for a March–April surge and bigger deficits to spur growth.
