A BIPARTISAN, session-opening drive for a Senate rules
change suffered a severe setback yesterday at the hands of Vice
President Spiro Agnew.
The rules change would have made it easier to halt filibusters.
Agnew said he is going to stick with the precedents and turn over
to the Senate for decision the constitutional issues involved in the
rules fight.4
The result was to put supporters of a rules change on notice that
they will have to muster a two-thirds majority to break a filibuster
by opponents.
THE APOLLO 14 ASTRONUATS climbed aboard spaceship
trainers today to practice a new landing technique intended to
guide them to a pinpoint landing in one of the roughest areas of
the moon, the craggy Fra Mauro highlands.
Upon reaching the moon the astronauts will set up a nuclear-
powered science station and collect rocks which might hold clues to
the moon's origin.
Two nights ago a small leak was detected in a hydraulic pack-.
age associated with one of the rocket's engines. The package was re-
moved and the defective parts replaced. Launch officials said the
countdown would be unaffected. A crowd of 500,000 is expected to be
present at the take-off scheduled for 3 p.m. Sunday.

sharing plan
WASHINGTON ca--President Nixon's plan for sharing
federal revenues with local governments is wasteful, unfair
to areas most in need and likely to force a general tax in-
crease, Rep.. Wilbur D. Mills, (D-Ark), told the House yester-
day.
Mills, chairman of the House Ways and Means Commit-
tee which will consider the $16 million tax-sharing program,
reserved an hour of House time for a detailed criticism of the
plan, which amounted to his reply to Nixon's address. The
President's State of the Union speech was primarily devoted
to promoting the idea.

In an obvious effort to counter-
act pressure on congressmen by
governors and local officials, Mills
listed states he said would gain
and those he expects to lose under
various possible ways of imple-
menting the program.
"If the purpose of revenue shar-
ing is to meet the needs of our
economy today, then revenue shar-
ing is a poor and wasteful means
of attaining those ends." Mills
stated.
"Under any of the formulas
that have been developed so far,
substantial funds are given to
states and localities where there
is little or no need, as well as to
those where there is need." The
most likely effect of sharing reve-
nue, he continued, would be to
raise federal taxes. If this were
done, he said, available informa-
tion "suggests that the distribu-
tional. effects of revenue sharing
would hurt most the urban states
where we hear most about the
need for revenue sharing, includ-
ing Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and New York.
Mills criticized mainly the por-
tion of the Nixon proposal calling
for distribution of $5 billion a year
with no strings tied.
Nixon suggested also that $11
billion more be shared with the
stipulation that the states use it
in specified general areas like ed-
ucation. They would develop their
own programs. All but $1 billion of
this $10 billion would be diverted
from present specific categorical
federal air programs.
Mills indicated some sympathy
with the block grant approach.
But he also said the likelihood of
$15-billion federal deficits "at
least should flash a caution light
for us to go slow with these pro-
posals for giving away federal
revenues.
"Myconcern is that once this
road is begun, where does it end?"
Mills said. "Once the $5 billion or
so is obtained in this manner,
what could be more natural than
at some future time to demand in
the strongest terms possible, fur-
ther increases in funds available.
"What worries me most about
not imposing taxes at the same
level of government responsible for
the expenditures is that this means
there is no balancing of priorities
between taxing and spending."

Nixon pushes
for renewed
action on bills
WASHINGTON (MP - President
Nixon asked Congress yesterday
to enact quickly 40 administration
bills that languished in 1970.
But he deferred explicit appeals
for action on two of his main tat -
gets: increased Social Security
payments and welfare reform.
In his first special message of
the new year, Nixon acknowledged
some of the 40 measures have
been revised this, year to meet
legitimate concerns expressed by
members of the Congress.
One of the major proposals in
the package would provide $1.5
billion by mid-1972 to school dis-
tricts facing racial desegregation
problems.
"I believe," said Nixon, "that
the items of unfinished business I
propose today merit the prompt
and careful consideration of the
Congress. I believe they are good
measures."
The presidential message did
not encompass all the items he
failed to get from the 1970 Con-
gress.
The President said he will sub-
mit separate messages later to
cover strikes creating national
emergencies; S o c i a 1 Security
amendments; bail reform; aid for
higher education; reform of the
draft; and steps toward creating
all-volunteer armed forces.
Nixon cited also-but did not
list among his 40 submissions-
"one especially urgent item of un-
finished business which I proposed
to the 91st Congress: welfare re-
form."
"In fairness to the taxpayers, to
the communities, and also to the
children, we can afford to delay
no longer in discarding the pres-
ent system and replacing it with
a new one," he said.
House Republican Leader Ger-
ald R. Ford of Michigan said all
the Nixon proposals are meritor-
ious and Congress should move
swiftly on them.
