Busing measure passed,
goes to House floor vote
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Rules Committee cleared the
way Tuesday for a quick vote in
the House on a proposed con
stitutional amendment that
would outlaw busing for the
purpose of school desegregation.
The 9-6 vote sending the
measure to the House floor ended
a long stalemate on the amend
ment, which busing foes have
been pushing for more than a
year. House action could come
sometime this week but is more
likely next week.
At the same time, the Rules
Committee postponed action on a
bill proposed by President Nixon
which would prevent the federal
courts from issuing any new
busing orders until next July 1.

Hi
The bill is intended to freeze the
busing situation until Congress
has time to pass permanent
legislation fixing sharp limits to
the amount of busing the courts
could require.
The permanent legislation is
now under consideration in the
House education and Labor
Committee, and the Rules
Committee voted 11 to 4 to wait
and see how it turns out before
taking up the proposed freeze.
The Education and Labor
Committee voted 22 to 10 Tuesday
against any further delay in
considering the permanent bill. It
is scheduled to start voting on
amendments Wednesday and
chairman Carl D. Perkins, D
Ky., predicts a bill will be ap
proved by Thursday.
The Rules Committee action
was a disappointment to the
administration, which wants the
freeze enacted. With time run
ning out on this session of
Congress there is considerable
doubt any permanent restrictions
on the courts can get through
both the House and senate this
year.
There is even more doubt about
the ultimate success of a con
stitutional amendment outlawing
busing. It requires a two-thirds
majority to pass a constitutional
amendment, and civil rights
leaders predict flatly that it will
not pass the Senate.
It is a vote that anti-busing
forces in the House have been
eager to get through, however.
They started trying to break a
Judiciary Committee
stranglehold on the amendment
last fall by filing a petition to take
it away from the committee. That
effort failed, but the Rules
Committee accomplished it for
them Tuesday.
Columnist retracts
Eagleton allegationF
WASHINGTON (AP) — Columnist Jack Anderson Tuesday
retracted his allegation that he had found records showing Sen.
Thomas Eagleton had been arrested several times for drunken or
reckless driving.
Anderson met with Eagleton for more than half an hour, then took
back his story “in total.” He said his investigations now show
Eagleton was never arrested on such charges.
The retraction came as Anderson was severely criticized by Sen.
Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., and The Washington Post.
Goldwater said on the Senate floor that Anderson “was forced to
admit to total irresponsibility” and has done grave harm to other
journalists. The Post, which often disagrees with Goldwater on other
issues, said in an editorial that “the Anderson performance has been a
reckless and wholly regrettable excursion into the worst kind of
‘journalism’.”
What Anderson retracted was his story of last Thursday, when he
said in a radio broadcast that he had located photostatic copies of
arrest records showing that Eagleton had been cited a half-dozen
times for drunken or reckless driving.
Anderson apologized to Eagleton publicly Sunday on CBS-TV’s
“Pace the Nation” broadcast but refused to retract the story until he
was certain it was untrue. He said he had been premature in airing it.
But Tuesday Anderson said he had exhausted his investigative
abilities and is now convinced the story is false.
