Four leaders of the Missouri Senate met Gov. Bond to discuss a proposed executive branch reorganization.

Disputes remain over the number of Senate-confirmed officials and agency autonomy.

House To Act Next On 60 Day War Power
The Senate approved a 60 day limit on deploying U.S. troops in combat without congressional approval. The bill requires a 48 hour notice to Congress when forces are sent and a 60 day withdrawal if not renewed, with a 30 day extension for unavoidable military necessity. Nixon would veto such limits but could challenge constitutional powers. Congress may end involvement in undeclared hostilities at any time by concurrent resolution.
