Limited War Aims Debate in Congress and Viet Cong Talks
In Washington a Senate House conference fight looms over a military construction bill with a congressional veto on base closings. The Senate passed a 1.72 billion authorization for 427 installations, while defense timing remains to be funded by future appropriations.
