House Ways and Means Committee reshapes Medicare style plan
A closed door on Capitol Hill hides a new hybrid health bill from House Ways and Means. The measure would extend hospital and post hospital care to those 65 and older, fund through higher Social Security taxes, and include drug and doctor bill reimbursement. The AMA warns benefits may shift costs and reduce elder drug coverage, while supporters expect a vote this session. Open hearings and Senate Finance scrutiny loom as opponents and insurers mobilize.

UN Chief urges three month Cyprus peace force extension
United Nations Secretary General U Thant urged the Security Council to extend the 6,100 person UN peace force in Cyprus for three more months to June 26, 1965. He warned both sides are better prepared to fight and that renewed conflict could be more severe. Greek Cypriot forces near 20,000 and Turkish Cypriots about 12,000. Thant noted pledges from 35 governments totaling $28.5 million cover the year’s expenses, with three month costs estimated at $6.4 million and a call for further voluntary contributions.
