Welsh Says LBJ Has Not Picked VP INDIANAPOLIS (UPD— Governor Welsh says he is “cohfident” that President Johnson has not yet picked a vice presidential running mate for the November election. Welsh and his wife returned here Friday from Washington where they had been overnight guests at the White House along with Gov. and Mrs-. Edmund Brown of California and Gov. and Mrs. John Dalton of Missouri. They had been at the White House to attend a dinner • honoring United Nations Secretary General U Thant. Welsh said he based his belief about a vice presidential candidate on an hour-long conference the three governors had with Johnson in his bedroom Friday morning. He said the President “had some polls on his desk and he read them aloud and asked us what we thought.” He said the discussion centered around the coming campaign in general, “the standing of the two presidential candidates in the South . . .and the religious effect.” The Republican vice prtsidential nominee, Rep. William Miller, R-N.Y., is a Catholic and some Democrats have expressed the belief their nominee should also be a Catholic. Welsh said it appeared that the President was still collecting and weighing facts before making a decision on his running mate. Welsh, who has been mentioned as possible vice presidential nominee, said he had “no knowledge" of Johnson’s views regarding him. Welsh, whose wife and twin daughters are Catholics, is a lay leader - C-hrteti-an - (Disciples of Christ) Church, the same denomination to which the President belongs. z ‘ The governor said the conference with Johnson was interrupted by frequent telephone calls, sdme relating to the antjpoverty bill approved by the House a few hours later, and others relating to foreign affairs. “I feel that the President is not only very busy but very capably managing the duties of the presidency and that the affairs of the nation are in good hands,” Welsh said. Welsh said the President also discussed with them briefly the situation in Viet Nam and said the decision to retaliate following North Vietnamese torpedo boat attacks on U.S. destroyers was made following a discussion with the Joint Chiefs of Staff and State Department officials.

Poverty Bill Ready For Passage WASHINGTON (UPD—President Johnson’s “war on poverty” bill was ready for House passage today. Administration forces expected .to vault the two remaining hurdles in an unusual Saturday session. The House stopped short of passing the $947.5 million toppriority legislation Friday night after voting 228 - 190 in favor of an administration backed compromise measure. Republicans blocked final action on a parliamentary technicality, leaving the bill hanging overnight. All that stood between passage was a vote on a Republican - sponsored substitute measure and a final rollcall on passage. The crucial vote was on adoption of an amendment rewriting the original $962.5 million House bill to conform more closely with the less-expensive Senate - passed measure. The technicality that forced postponement of final action was a Republican demand for , an officially printed copy of the amended bill. This could not be supplied until today. Once through that, the bill would go back to the Senate, which passed similar legislation by a large margin last month. The legislation, constituting the keystone of Johnson's legislative program for the congressional session between national political conventions, is designed to give youths new skills and work experience; finance locally - initiated anti - poverty projects; and offer additional federal aid to small farm and business operators in “poverty pockets.” The bill is of vital importance to the President because, unlike such major measures as the civil rights arid the tax reduction bills, the anti - poverty bill is not a legacy from the Kennedy administration. Although the late president had begun to lay plans for an attack on poverty before his fjovember assassination, it was Johnson who shaped the legisi; lation early this year and guided it through Congress.
