Congress Backs Johnson on Viet Nam War Powers
In Washington, the House and Senate approved a bipartisan emergency Viet Nam resolution supporting President Johnson. The House vote was 414 to 0 and the Senate 88 to 2, with Morse of Oregon and Gruening of Alaska dissenting. The measure endorses taking all necessary measures to repel armed attacks and deter further aggression, citing incidents with North Vietnamese torpedo boats and U S strikes on Red targets. Morse urged limits on presidential war powers, calling the action a predated declaration, while supporters framed it as unified crisis leadership.

Budget Approved County Library Rate Under 12 Cents
County Supervisors began final budget sessions by revising several department budgets and debated the Library Service and Bookmobile funding. A final library budget of 100,853 was approved with a net operating budget of 77,853, setting a tax rate of 11.9 cents. The loan repayment of 23,000 was funded from the contingency, while an unexpected 21,000 in early income was projected from North Bay Library contributions and state funds. Hiring of a county librarian was deferred to after November 1, with librarian salary paid from the general fund to avoid extra tax.
