Reagan says spending cuts needed for tax hike plan
Washington officials say the Reagan administration will likely submit a 1985 budget resembling this year’s rejected package, with a tax proposal tied to spending cuts. Treasury Secretary Regan voiced the contingency during a Monday address, noting a surcharge and oil levy as options. Public doubts remain on final decisions before the Oct 1, 1984 start of fiscal year.

High court to hear case on bias in grand jury forepersons
The Supreme Court will review whether systematic exclusion of blacks from grand jury foremen in the eastern North Carolina district could void a criminal conviction. Wilbur Hobby, former AFL CIO leader in North Carolina, argues indictments were tainted by racial bias despite the foreman role having limited powers. The 4th Circuit split with the 11th Circuit, which has allowed overturning convictions based on past bias in foreman selections. The Justice Department notes the case could resolve conflicts between circuits.
