War deadline doomed in House as vote unlikely
In Washington the House showed near-certain rejection of the Senate nine month Indochina war deadline tied to the draft bill. Rep. Whalen pressed for a vote on the Senate plan, but backers and foes expected no House approval, sending the measure to a House-Senate conference amid threats of a filibuster by antiwar forces. The current draft law expires Thursday morning, with Pentagon planning a 16,000-man July August call if needed.

Lancione proposes budget compromise amid Ohio tax bill deadlock
In Columbus, House Minority Leader A. G. Lancione says Republicans and Democrats could resolve the tax bill stalemate quickly by restoring half of Gov Giligan's 902 million dollar discretionary cut and trading a 1 to 4 percent state income tax for Democratic backing of a supplemental appropriations bill. Democrats seek 200 million restoration first year and 250 million second year. The House faces a Tuesday vote on a constitutional amendment to lower voting age to 18, with 34 states already ratified.
