Nixon calls for an $8 billion federal budget cut
Nixon urged an immediate roughly $8 billion reduction in the federal budget to avert an economic crisis he called the worst since World War II. He stressed the move as Johnson’s responsibility, spoke after arriving in Cheyenne for a meeting with Governor Stan Hathaway, and planned tours to Montana, Idaho, and Nevada. Gallup polls then showed Nixon leading Kennedy and McCarthy by several points. He led Humphrey, 43 to 34 percent, in head to head matchups.
