Washington Mills of the House Ways and Means Committee warned that reports of a neat compromise on President Johnson's tax and spending plan were too optimistic. He demanded a firm spending ceiling and questioned the deficit targets and the exact meaning of a four billion dollar cut before he would support the White House agreement. Republican tax writers predicted opposition and noted GOP discontent over being left out of House conference negotiations.

Blackout Protester to Stand Trial in Utility Incident
Dale F. Morrow 27, student at the University of Colorado, was found mentally fit to stand trial on a charge of interfering with electrical transmission. He allegedly drove a tractor into a utility pole near Redwood City on April 4, blacking out about 17,000 Salt Francisco Peninsula homes while service remained intact in the city. Meanwhile national politics swirl around tax cuts and Vietnam funding as Congress debates spending reductions and tax proposals, with Byrnes and Ford commenting on partisan taint and legislative strategy. The House Senate conference tentatively approved changes on municipal bond tax status and shifting May deadlines.
