New U S baby boom predicted by Michigan economist
University of Michigan economist Ronald D. Lee predicts a new U S baby boom starting in the 1980s and peaking around 2000 based on a theory linking birth rates to economic status and population size. He notes current low fertility could rise to about three children per woman by 2000, approaching the 1957 peak.

White House weighs upgrading Vietnam era discharges
The White House considers two Pentagon working papers to upgrade up to about 73 000 undesirable Vietnam era discharges. Margaret McKenna says the plan groups honorably serving Vietnam veterans with later military trouble or past wounds and would age and education based guidelines. The total across categories may reach around 100 000 but overlaps reduce the figure to two thirds or three quarters. Carter will review the proposal after senior staff clearance in about a week. Carter earlier pardoned roughly 25 000 draft resisters and pledged case by case review of nearly half a million less than honorable discharges.
