Mahon Assails Revenue-Sharing Bill as Tax Increase
Representative George J. Mahon, head of the House Appropriations Committee, urged lawmakers to reject the administration’s $30 billion revenue-sharing bill amid lobbying by state and local officials. He warned passage would trigger higher taxes next year and pledged that voting for revenue sharing means endorsing a tax increase in 1973. House leaders planned a vote next week, but lacked sufficient support to force a showdown.

EPA plans methyl parathion as chief substitute, despite farm industry alarm over cost and side effects.
