Senate votes to halt SST funding despite industry push
After a Senate defeat on funding, an $864 million SST project faced layoff waves of up to 14,000 workers. Boeing, Magruder and others warned of private financing challenges while Tokyo reports floated foreign bids. Critics labeled the vote a setback to American aviation leadership, with appeals for alternative financing and a long road ahead for SST hopes.

Nixon Proposes Merging Agencies Into New Economic Affairs Dept
Nixon argues for abolishing several federal departments and independent agencies and creating a Department of Economic Affairs. The plan would absorb Interior’s Forest and Soil programs, Army Corps civil functions, Atomic Energy Commission civilian power, and parts of Transport and Commerce. He claims the new department would coordinate education, death, and economic efforts more effectively.

Welfare cutbacks ruled out in California court ruling
The court rejected a 1970 midget act reading that would let the director of social welfare convert California’s plan from full need payments to a percentage reduction system. It also struck down a $44.45 per person monthly standard of need, saying the standard must reflect local prices. Minutes after the decision, Assembly Welfare Committee chair William T. Bagley announced amendments to bills to limit rate cuts, with hearings set for next Wednesday.
