Democrats Attack Rockefeller Medicare Plan in New York
In Albany Democrats assailed Gov Rockefeller's plan for state participation in the new federal Medicare program. The measure seeks to secure about 99 million dollars in federal aid for medical care for the needy, with a Social Welfare Department as the lead agency and a 15 member commission to advise. Critics, including Sen Seymour Thaler, call it flawed. The Assembly also approved death-penalty for killings of police, and several motor vehicle law tweaks while the Senate debated license inspections for state training schools. The Assembly advanced a $200 million borrowing proposal for the State Job Development Authority with voter approval required, enabling loans to industrial plants and non profit groups.
