He noted the measure reduces federal revenue by about 3 billion dollars, vows to push for a balanced budget, and hints at possible future tax actions such as a value added tax. The package expands social security benefits, raises the personal exemption, and tightens depletion allowances while closing several loopholes.

1969 Grand Jury Recommendations Stir County Officials
The 1969 Grand Jury released its report before Christmas urging more authority for county administrators and closer scrutiny of Brooktrails operations. It calls for feasibility study on sheriffing law enforcement, contracting with cities, abolishing constables, and shifting salary decisions from Civil Service to a joint committee. It notes jail conditions, urges intercounty sharing of weights and measures, and demands stronger anti pollution action plus streamlined offices and data processing. It supports welfare fraud investigations, county welfare work, and damper on OEO funding, while pushing fish and game control enhancements and river channel studies affecting Ukiah water wells and agricultural wells.
