Reagan draws governor's aid and political prospects
Montana Governor Tim Babcock praised Ronald Reagan as a strong potential Republican presidential candidate if he proves effective as California's governor. Babcock, at the Western Governors Conference, called Reagan very popular and noted uncertainty among governors about backing a single candidate before the GOP convention. The piece also notes Rockefeller as a distant frontrunner and outlines governors' desire to stay uncommitted pending further evidence. In Washington, the House Ways and Means Committee is close to a 13 percent Social Security increase, but no bill is expected before Congress returns from the July 4 recess.
