Illinois Members Split on Contempt Vote and Other Actions
U S Reps Paul Findley and Mel Price were the only central and southern Illinois members to back a contempt citation against CBS President Frank Stanton in a motion that killed a CBS film dispute. Findley opposed a separate effort to obtain policy documents on Laos. Senators Stevenson and Percy split on veto override of a $5.66 billion public works bill, with Stevenson voting for and Percy against. Both favored limits on farm subsidies and against funding for the Subversive Activities Control Board, while Alaska test delays drew mixed votes.
