Trading stamp probe urged by aide to LBJ
Esther Peterson, Johnson's consumer affairs aide, called for a high priority study of food sales promotion costs including games of chance and trading stamps. She wrote to FTC Chairman Paul Rand Dixon while in Denver amid a weeklong boycott by housewives pressuring lower prices. The action followed a Denver group listing five chains, with Miller and Farr's removed for price cuts and petitions for a federal probe. Peterson warned against price wars and pyramiding costs while stressing consumer support.

Air Force halts civilian gift flights to South Viet Nam
The Air Force, strained by Viet Nam war needs, orders squadrons to stop flying civilian gifts of food and clothes to South Viet Nam for GIs and homeless Vietnamese. No Christmas airlift this year is planned as airlift is focused on military logistics. Agencies urge donors to send aid via the Agency for International Development or by mail to troops. The expanded Air National Guard role now accounts for about eight percent of Southeast Asia airlift with 75 monthly support trips.
