Democrats Seek Curbs on House Rules backed by leaders
A Democrat plan to limit the 21 day rule on House Rules Committee action faces Republican opposition ahead of a Wednesday meeting of GOP members. Rep Curtis of Missouri urges rejecting the plan and favors the Wednesday rule allowing committee chairmen to bring bills to a vote, bypassing the Rules Committee. The session is expected to discuss rule changes, minority staffings, party image, and leadership prospects with at least 115 Republicans likely to attend, while no immediate threat to Halleck’s minority leadership is seen.

Pentagon plans changes swarm through Army Reserve units
The Pentagon aims to complete a sweeping reorganization of the Army Reserve into the National Guard within about 16 months with a target date of March 1966. Secret briefings disclosed plans to shift 150000 reservists, draft a troop list of about 2000 units, and brief governors as states decide how to distribute units and which armories to keep. Questions loom on ROTC, segregated units, draft registration, and preparation steps for individual reservists during the transition.
