Republican Prospects in 1974 Senate and gubernatorial races
The Nixon era scandals are unlikely to topple many GOP seats in 1974. Of 34 Senate contests, 15 held by Republicans are largely secure, with aging or long tenure cited as vulnerability in a few cases. House prospects remain weak for Republicans, while governors face tighter races across 19 states, with Cahill unseated in New Jersey and California described as wide open without Reagan.

Sen. Harry Byrd mocked Scali's residence at the Waldorf Towers, noting its $33,000 yearly rental, while affirming support for good quarters but not for detached judgment.

Nixon price freeze unlikely to curb inflation
An economist predicts that Nixon's price freeze and any future controls will fail to stop demand-pull inflation. With demand outstripping supply, black markets and price shifts may arise, and consumer costs rise as services lag. Only a major drop in demand or a slowing economy could ease prices, making governmental action the last hope.
