Textile Rift Between Nixon and Mills Heats Up Over Imports
Washington AP reports a heated clash over textile imports between President Nixon and Rep. Wilbur Mills. Mills pushed for negotiated curbs with Japan while opposing a broad statutory program favoring one industry over others. Nixon ordered monthly import monitoring and floated quotas or talks with Hong Kong Taiwan and South Korea as alternatives. The dispute also intertwines with revenue sharing and Mills leadership in tax and foreign trade policy.

Congress Asked to Restore Full Citizenship to Lee
Sen. Byrd urges amnesty for Confederate general Robert E. Lee and restoration of his citizenship, noting a missing allegiance oath and a 1869 treason charge drop as the last barriers. The oath found in the National Archives is cited by archivist Elmer Parker. A 1865 pledge to a Virginia notary is identified, but no record shows Johnson saw Lee’s petition.
