—Johnson from a new perspective” since there is a new German government and different officials to deal with on the matter. With respect to Latin America, Johnson had set his sights on attending a mid-April summit meeting of hemispheric leaders, presumably at Punta Del Este, Uruguay. Former White House Press Secretary Bill D. Moyers’ last major act on behalf of Johnson was to fly to Uruguay to survey it as a likely site for the meeting. But rumblings have come from some of the nations that would take part; they want an agenda determined before any time or place are set.
—Budget
Sen. Clinton P. Anderson, DN.M., chairman of the Senate Space Committee, promised a
“very tight examination of the $5.3 billion space budget.” Even Senate Democratic lead- , er Mike Mansfield, (Mont.) conceded “it is a large budget i that may well be smaller than the President sent up.” On the Republican side of the aisle, Rep. Charles R. Jonas, N.C., second - ranking GOP member of the House Appropri. ations Committee, said the budget could be cut by a minimum of $5 billion. _ House GOP leader Gerald R. Ford also urged domestic cutbacks, stating it would be a "tragic mistake” to increase taxes this year. Senate GOP leader Everett M. Dirksen, HI., said he was convinced the deficit would be considerably higher than the $4.3 billion figure forecast by Johnson. He also attacked the President’s plan to sell $5.3 billion in government-owned loans as gimmickry” designed to keep the deficit from soaring over the $10 billion mark.

Bill Will Hike Gasoline Tax INDIANAPOLIS UPI—Rep. Frederick T. Bauer, D-Terre Haute, says he plans to introduce a bill in the Indiana House to increase the state gasoline tax by two cents a gallon to raise money for highway construction because of a cutback in federal funds. Bauer’s bill would raise about $54 million extra a year which he proposed to spend for work on primary, or trunkline, roads. Progress in planning for such projects has been held up because the federal government cut back appropriations to the states in the wake of increasing demands for spending for the Vietnam war. Bauer said it would be only a stopgap increase, probably effective for a limited number of years. He said no suggestion was made on which roads would be involved. But Governor Branigin in his recent message to the legislature urged the lawmakers to “consider providing funds for selected highway construction, U. S. 31 north, U. S. 41, U. S. 24 in Lake County and elsewhere as determined by you."
Senate Acts On Shoplifter Bill INDIANAPOLIS UPI — The Indiana Senate passed 43-5 Tuesday and sent to the House a bill making it lawful for a merchant to detain a suspected shoplifter. The measure, introduced by Sens. David Rogers, D-Bloom-ington, and James Young, RFranklin, enables merchants to detain suspects up to an hour and gives them a certain amount of protection against legal action. Sen. Chester Watson, D-Fort Wayne, opposed the bill during debate, saying “it’s terrible to accuse someone without right of redress.” But Young said the bill would not grant immunity from suit. Sen. Patrick Chavis, D-Indian-apolis, called the bill a “dangerous infringement upon the constitutional rights of individuals.”
INDIANAPOLIS UPI — The Indiana Senate passed 41-7 and sent to the House Tuesday a bill to abolish the state’s presidential preference primary. Republican 1964 presidential nominee Barry Goldwater’s Indiana campaign manager, Sen. Leslie Duval, R-Indianapolis, introduced the bill and said at the time that Goldwater was the only bonafide candidate among nine who ran in the primary three years ago. Before the vote, there was floor discussion. Duvall said such a primary “involves great expense and eliminates anyone from being a candidate who is not a millionaire or who does not have great financing behind him.” Sen. Nelson Grills, D-Indian-apolis, said the main reason for wanting to repeal the law was that “a gutty little fighter from down South same up and scared the pants off the Democrats.” This was in reference to Gov. George Wallace of Alabama, who received nearly 30 per cent of the votes in a Democratic race with then Gov. Matthew E. Welsh who ran as a stand-in for President Johnson. “I have no sympathy for what he stands for,” Grills said. ‘But it was beneficial to the Democratic party. People have very little voice in political parties in Indiana. I hope to see the time when all candidates are elected in direct primary and not selected in vicious conventions. And when I say this I may be giving my political eulogy.”
