Nixon Seeks To Limit CAB International Rate Power
The Nixon administration urged Congress to curb the Civil Aeronautics Board by restricting its international rate authority to suspend or disapprove rates. Administration officials argued against granting the CAB power to prescribe fares, contending domestic and international powers should not be merged. State and Transportation officials supported limiting authority, while CAB chairman Browne urged broader regulation matching foreign governments. Senate subcommittees have only approved suspending existing or proposed fares, omitting the power to set rates, amid airline complaints.

Burch Aims to Expand Maryland Appeal Powers
Maryland Attorney General Francis Burch announced plans to introduce legislation to broaden the state’s right to appeal in criminal cases. He argued the move would prevent miscarriages of justice and protect law enforcement, focusing on cases involving suppression of evidence in lottery and narcotics offenses. Burch criticized current limits as too narrow for challenging quashed indictments.
