Deadlock on War Issue Broken
Congressional leaders broke a deadlock over ending the war and prepared to wind up the first session of the 92nd Congress. A compromise, after talks between House Speaker Carl Albert and Senate leader Mike Mansfield, calls for a House vote on Mansfield’s six month withdrawal amendment while allowing continued foreign aid at current levels until early March. The deal may allow action on major bills, including a long stalled campaign reform measure, with possible delays until Congress resumes January 18.
