U N Security Council Awaits Thant Peace Report
The United Nations Security Council plans to meet again after receiving Secretary-General U Thant’s report from Cairo. Thant cut his Cairo trip short to return to New York Friday. He spent three hours with President Gamal Abdel Nasser in a cordial session. The attempt to delay debates failed as Soviet and allied members did not muster support. A Canadian-Danish resolution backing Thant’s pacification efforts lacked backing for a vote. Ambassadors debated meanwhile and the Egyptian delegate accused the move of sabotaging the mission. Goldberg voiced confusion over the unfolding events.

House Passes School Aid Bill Amid Bitter Debate
The House approved Johnson's school aid measure after a 14 hour session, trimming the Office of Education by stripping its experimental program while strengthening other provisions. The bill authorizes 5.5 billion dollars for 1966 to 1969, with 80 percent targeted to aid low income children and state education departments gaining more control in parts of the plan. The vote reflected deep partisan clashes over federal control of education and desegregation enforcement.
